Privacy Policy — Linko
Last updated: 23 July 2026
Linko is a daily bridge-building puzzle game. This policy explains what data the app handles. Linko has no user accounts, no login and no server of its own: the puzzles are generated on your device and your progress never leaves it.
1. Data stored on your device
Linko saves the following locally, in the app's private storage:
- your daily puzzle results (solved or not, completion time) and your current and best streak;
- whether you have seen the tutorial;
- the state of an unlocked bonus level;
- your daily-reminder notification preference.
This information is never transmitted to us or to anyone else. We have no way of reading it. Uninstalling the app deletes it permanently.
2. Advertising (Google AdMob)
Linko shows an optional rewarded video advertisement when you choose to unlock an extra level. Advertisements are served by Google AdMob, which acts as an independent data controller and may collect or receive:
- your device's advertising identifier;
- your IP address and approximate (coarse) location derived from it;
- device and app information (model, operating system version, app version);
- interactions with the advertisement.
Google uses this data to serve and measure advertising. See "How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services" (https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites) and the Google Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy).
3. Consent and your choices
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, a consent form (Google's User Messaging Platform) is shown the first time you choose to watch an advertisement. You decide there whether advertising may be personalised.
- If you consent, you may receive personalised advertising.
- If you refuse, advertising is non-personalised (based on context only). The game remains fully playable either way.
- You can change your choice at any time from Settings > Privacy inside the app.
You can also reset or delete your advertising identifier in your device settings (Settings > Google > Ads on Android).
4. Notifications
If you enable the daily reminder, the notification is scheduled and shown entirely on your device. There is no push service and no data is sent anywhere. You can turn it off at any time from Settings in the app or in your device settings.
5. Analytics and crash reporting
Linko contains no analytics and no crash-reporting tools.
6. Children
Linko is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect any personal data from them.
7. Your rights
Because we hold no personal data about you, there is nothing for us to export or delete beyond uninstalling the app. For data processed by Google in connection with advertising, please exercise your rights directly with Google using the links in section 2.
8. Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the updated version will be published on this page with a new date above.
