Candy Tumble ("the game") is made by Fun Games Studio ("we", "us"). This policy explains what information the game handles.
We do not ask for your real name, email address, phone number or password. Most of your progress (levels, stars, coins, critters, boosters, skins and settings) is stored on your device and is deleted if you uninstall the game or clear its data.
To let you take part in the daily puzzle ranking, weekly leagues, the all-time stars board and teams, the game creates an anonymous online account when it starts. No personal details are needed. This account uses Google Firebase (Firebase Authentication, Cloud Firestore and Cloud Functions), and the data is stored on Google servers in the European Union (Belgium). We store:
Your nickname, picture and scores are shown to other players in the rankings and in your team. This data is used only to run these features. Firebase may also process technical information such as your IP address to deliver the service; see firebase.google.com/support/privacy.
You can delete your online account and everything listed above at any time in the game: Settings > Delete my online data. The game then stops taking part in rankings until you choose to join again. You can also ask us to delete it by email (address below); tell us your candy nickname. Online data of accounts that are not deleted is kept while the game is offered.
The game offers optional rewarded video ads provided by Google AdMob, which you can choose to watch for in-game bonuses such as a free hint, extra moves or double coins. The game never shows ads you didn't ask for. To show and measure ads, Google may collect and process information such as your device's advertising ID, IP address, approximate location derived from it, device and app information, and ad interaction data. Where required by law (for example in the EEA, UK and Switzerland), the game asks for your consent before personalised ads are shown, and you can change your choice at any time in Settings > Privacy options. You can also reset or delete your advertising ID in your device's settings.

Optional purchases (for example coin packs, hints, booster packs, the Candy Pass, the Piggy Bank, cosmetic skins and Skip Ads) are processed entirely by Google Play. We do not receive or store your payment details. Google Play tells the game which items you own so they can be restored. Purchases never affect the online rankings: boosters can't be used in the daily puzzle ranking and boosted wins count as 1 star in the other rankings.
The game is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
We do not sell personal information. Data is shared only with Google as described above (Firebase for the online rankings, AdMob for advertising, Google Play for purchases), and nicknames and scores are shown to other players.
Data sent to our online service is encrypted in transit (HTTPS). Players can't read or change the online data directly; every change goes through our server, which checks it.
We may update this policy. The current version is always available in the game and at the address listed on our Google Play page.
