At Medialinks, your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how ClueHop — Detective Maze Chase (“ClueHop,” “the Application,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you install, play, and interact with the game on iOS and Android devices.
ClueHop is an adventure maze puzzle game where players guide Detective Agent Jax through mystery levels, collect clues, evade suspects, and solve criminal cases.
The application is designed with a privacy-first approach:
No user account or registration is required.
Core gameplay data is stored locally on your device.
ClueHop is not intended to track users across third-party apps or websites.
Advertising is intended to use non-personalized and contextual ads through Google AdMob, subject to the actual SDK configuration and applicable requirements.
ClueHop operates primarily offline for gameplay purposes. We do not require you to provide personal contact details, such as your legal name, email address, physical address, or phone number, to play the game.
The following gameplay information may be stored in your device's local application storage:
Unlocked cases and level progression
Solved mystery records and evidence point totals
Earned detective stars and high scores
In-game detective nickname selected by the player
Audio settings, including sound effects and background music
Haptic and vibration preferences
Control preferences, including swipe and directional pad controls
First-time onboarding tutorial completion status
Gameplay information stored entirely locally is not transmitted to or hosted on Medialinks servers.
To support the ongoing development and availability of ClueHop as a free-to-play game, we display banner and interstitial advertisements provided by Google AdMob through the Google Mobile Ads SDK.
ClueHop is intended to request non-personalized advertisements rather than behaviorally personalized advertisements.
Non-personalized ads may use contextual information, general device characteristics, and approximate location inferred from an IP address to select advertisements, measure ad performance, prevent fraud, and comply with applicable requirements.
The information processed depends on the Google Mobile Ads SDK version, its configuration, applicable consent requirements, and the advertising partners involved.
ClueHop is not intended to track users across third-party apps and websites as defined by Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework.
ClueHop does not intentionally access or transmit Apple's Advertising Identifier (IDFA) for cross-app tracking.
ClueHop does not request App Tracking Transparency authorization when the app is configured and operated without tracking that requires such authorization.
Third-party advertising SDKs may process certain device identifiers and technical information for advertising delivery, analytics, fraud prevention, and related purposes. Non-personalized advertising does not necessarily mean that no device-related information is processed.
ClueHop may include Apple's SKAdNetwork support for privacy-preserving advertising attribution on compatible iOS configurations. Attribution availability depends on the SDK and advertising network configuration.
When advertisements are requested or displayed, Google Mobile Ads SDK and its advertising partners may process information such as:
Device and technical information: Device model, operating system version, language, screen characteristics, and advertising or other SDK identifiers where applicable.
Approximate location: General location inferred from an IP address, where applicable. ClueHop does not request precise GPS location for gameplay.
Advertising interactions: Ad requests, impressions, clicks, and related measurements.
Diagnostics and performance: Crash reports, loading times, and technical information used to maintain advertising functionality and prevent abuse.
Google's actual data processing may vary according to your device, region, consent choices, and the services used.

User Tracking Authorization for cross-app tracking
Third-party SDK behavior and platform permissions may vary by operating system and SDK configuration.

Legal name or postal address
Email address or phone number
Passwords or account credentials
Payment card or banking details
Social media profiles or friend lists
Biometric information
However, Google AdMob and other platform services may process technical information as described in Section 3.
Medialinks does not sell players' locally stored gameplay progress or personal information.
Gameplay progress and preferences stored locally are not intentionally shared by Medialinks with third parties.
Google AdMob may receive and process information necessary to provide advertising, measure ad performance, prevent fraud, and support its services.
We do not intend to use ClueHop for cross-app behavioral tracking.
Information may be disclosed when required by applicable law or valid legal process, or when reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, or security.
Third-party services operate under their own privacy policies and data-handling practices.
Gameplay progress and preferences are designed to be stored locally on your device.
In-App Reset: If the game provides a “Purge Everything” or “Reset All Progress” option, you can use it to delete the supported locally saved gameplay progress and settings.
App Uninstallation: Uninstalling or deleting ClueHop generally removes its local application data, subject to operating system behavior, backups, and other device settings.
Apple iCloud, Google backup services, or other device-level backup features may retain backed-up data according to your settings and the relevant provider's policies.
Information processed independently by Google AdMob is subject to Google's applicable retention and deletion practices.
ClueHop is designed as a family-friendly detective puzzle game.
We do not intentionally ask children to provide personal information to play the game. We aim to handle advertising in accordance with applicable children's privacy laws and platform requirements.
Advertising settings, content ratings, consent mechanisms, and SDK configurations must be appropriate for the intended audience and applicable legal requirements.
Parents or guardians who have questions or concerns about privacy in ClueHop may contact us at hello@themedialinks.com.
We take reasonable steps to protect information handled by ClueHop. Local application storage benefits from iOS and Android application sandbox protections, which restrict access by other applications.
No electronic storage or transmission method is completely secure. ClueHop minimizes certain privacy risks by avoiding remote cloud storage of player identities and keeping core gameplay data locally on the device.
We may periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect application updates, legal obligations, or technical improvements.
Any changes will be published on this page with an updated “Last Updated” date at the top of the document.
We encourage users and parents or guardians to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
