Privacy Policy for Caesar Puzzle Calendar
This Privacy Policy explains how the mobile application Caesar Puzzle Calendar (“the App”) provided by Peter Ombodi (“we”, “us”, or “our”) handles user data. By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Overview
Caesar Puzzle Calendar can be used as a local offline puzzle game. Some features, such as account-based synchronization across devices, are optional and require signing in.
We do not use advertising SDKs, and we do not use analytics or tracking services to profile users or measure behavior for marketing purposes.
2. Data We May Process
The data processed by the App depends on how you use it.
- Without signing in: the App may store gameplay progress, puzzle history, and settings locally on your device.
- When you choose to sign in: the App may process account and synchronization data needed to support cross-device functionality.
3. Authentication
The App offers optional sign-in using Apple and Google accounts.
If you choose to sign in, we may receive basic account information from the authentication provider, such as:
- A unique user identifier
- Email address (if provided by the sign-in provider)
- Display name (if available)
This information is used solely to:
- Authenticate your account
- Enable synchronization across devices
- Associate your gameplay data with your account
4. Data Stored Locally on Your Device
To provide core game functionality, the App may store data locally on your device, such as:
- Current game progress and puzzle state
- Unfinished and completed sessions
- Move history and replay-related data
- Game settings and preferences
- Locally cached account/session information required for sign-in
If you use the App without signing in, this data remains only on your device.
5. Synchronization and Cloud Storage
If you sign in, the App may store and synchronize certain data through cloud backend services so you can continue your progress across devices, including supported web access.
This synchronized data may include:
- Gameplay progress and puzzle history
- Saved sessions
- User settings and preferences
- Technical account identifiers needed for synchronization
6. Third-Party Services
The App uses Firebase, a service provided by Google, for authentication and data synchronization.
Firebase may process and store data required to provide these services, including authentication data and synchronized gameplay/session data.
Google’s Privacy Policy is available at: https://policies.google.com/privacy
The App does not use:
- Advertising networks
- Third-party analytics or tracking SDKs
- Third-party crash reporting tools, unless added in a future version and disclosed here
7. Children’s Privacy
The App is intended for a general audience and is not specifically directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children beyond what is necessary to provide optional account functionality chosen by the user.
If you believe that personal data of a child has been provided through the App inappropriately, please contact us so we can review and address the issue.
8. Your Rights and Control
You can use the App without signing in and keep your gameplay data only on your device.
If you choose to sign in:
- You can delete your account and associated data directly in the App
- You can stop using synchronization features at any time by signing out
- You can remove locally stored data by deleting the App or clearing its data from your device
9. Data Retention
Locally stored data remains on your device until you remove it.
Account-related and synchronized data is retained for as long as needed to provide the account and synchronization features, unless you delete your account or request deletion through the available in-app functionality.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, for example if the App’s functionality changes or if new services are integrated. Any changes will be published on this page with an updated “Last updated” date.
