PRIVACY    POLICY

1. Overview 

Sudoku Quantum ("we," "us," or "our") is a mobile game available on Google Play. We are committed to protecting your privacy and personal information. This policy explains what data we may collect, how we use it, and the measures we take to keep your information secure. By downloading or using Sudoku Quantum, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

2. Google Play Store Compliance 

We design Sudoku Quantum to comply with Google Play Store policies, including the Google Play Console data safety and user privacy requirements. We do not collect, store, or share personal information from users for personal usage beyond what is necessary to provide the app’s features and improve the user experience. Where data collection is unavoidable for app functionality, we minimize data and use it only in compliance with this policy and applicable laws.

3. Ads and AdMob
   
   

• Sudoku Quantum displays banner ads provided by Google AdMob. These ads are served by Google and may use cookies and related technologies to collect non-personal data for ad targeting and measurement.

• We do not share your personal data with AdMob beyond what is necessary to deliver ads via the AdMob platform. Ad personalization may occur, but we implement controls to limit data collection to non-identifiable or aggregated information where possible.

• For more details on how Google AdMob collects data, please review Google’s Privacy Policy and the AdMob data usage terms.

4. Data We Do Not Collect

• Personal identifiers (name, email address, physical address, phone number, etc.)

• Payment or financial information

• Location data unless explicitly stated for a feature and with user consent

• Contacts, media, or files from your device

• Any data that can be used to uniquely identify you outside of in-app analytics and crash reporting, when applicable

5. Data

 We May Collect (Non-Personal, Anonymous, or Aggregated) To improve app performance and reliability, we may collect:

• Anonymous usage statistics (e.g., session length, levels completed, in-game achievements)

• Anonymous crash logs and diagnostic information

• Device information (model, OS version, language, screen resolution) in aggregate form This data is collected in a non-identifiable manner and is not linked to you personally.

6. Data Usage

• To analyze app performance and diagnose issues

• To improve gameplay balance, features, and user experience

• To ensure compatibility with Google Play requirements

• To serve and measure ads via AdMob (non-personalized or limited personalization as configured by Google and AdMob)

We do not use collected data to track you across the web, build a profile about you, or target you with ads outside of the app. We do not sell or share any data with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes beyond what is necessary for ad delivery through the AdMob network.

7. Data Retention and Security

• We store only non-personal, aggregated data necessary to maintain and improve the app.

• Data retention periods are limited to the minimum duration required for analysis and debugging.

• We implement reasonable security measures to protect collected data from unauthorized access or loss. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. User Rights and Controls

• You can uninstall Sudoku Quantum at any time, which will remove local data on your device.

• If you have questions about data collection or wish to request data deletion of any collected non-personal analytics, contact us at the address below. Note that genuinely non-personal, aggregated data may not be individually identifiable or deletable in a meaningful way.

• For ad preferences or concerns about AdMob data handling, refer to Google’s privacy controls and AdMob policies.

9. Third-Party Services

• The app uses third-party services for crash reporting, analytics, and ad serving (e.g., AdMob). These services are configured to collect only non-personal, aggregated information and to minimize data usage. They may set cookies or use similar technologies to collect data as described by their own privacy policies.

• We do not endorse or rely on any third-party data brokers or advertisers within the app beyond the AdMob ecosystem.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify users through the app or via the Google Play listing. Continued use of the app after such changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
