Introduction

Welcome to Pixel Chain, a retro puzzle game built with privacy in mind. We are committed to protecting your gaming experience. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle information when you play our game on Android and iOS devices.

Information We Collect

We value your privacy. Pixel Chain does not collect any personal identifiers such as your real name, email address, phone number, location, or payment info.

To support core game features, we process only the following anonymous gameplay data:

• Anonymous Profile Data: When you set up the game, a randomly selected profile icon and your chosen custom player name are stored. No real-world identities are requested or saved.
• Game Progression: We save your max unlocked level (from Level 1 to 200) and your collection of unlocked sticker rewards to track your progress.
• Device Identification: An anonymous, system-generated identifier is used to verify and manage your local profile and settings offline.

Storage & Data Retention

Your gameplay data is stored in the following location:

• Local Storage: Achievements, settings, and profile details are cached locally on your device using React Native's AsyncStorage for seamless offline play.

If you want to clear your data, you can do so at any time using the Reset Progress or Delete Profile options directly from the in-game Account screen, which permanently wipes your local save data.

Third-Party Services

We utilize third-party services that may collect information used to identify your device:

• Google Mobile Ads (AdMob): To serve advertisements in the game. Google AdMob may collect and process device identifiers, cookies, and other data for ad personalization, tracking, and analytics.
• Apple App Store / Google Play Services: To facilitate game download, updates, and native OS notifications.

Children's Privacy

Pixel Chain is designed for players of all ages and is fully family-friendly. Because we do not collect any personal information (such as real names or contact details), we do not knowingly solicit or collect data from children under the age of 13.

Changes to This Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. You are advised to review this page periodically for any changes. Any updates are effective immediately upon posting to this URL.
