Privacy Policy — Fair Blocks
Last updated: 2026-06-03
Introduction
Maivika ("we", "us") publishes Fair Blocks, a block puzzle game for iOS and Android. This policy explains what data we collect and how we handle it when you play Fair Blocks. The game requires no account or sign-in.
Information we collect
Anonymous identifier: we create an anonymous user ID (Firebase Anonymous Auth) to store your leaderboard ranking. This ID is not linked to your real identity.
Leaderboard: a display name you enter and your score are stored to rank you. Please do not include personal information in your display name.
Usage data: anonymous analytics (Firebase Analytics) such as gameplay events, to improve the game.
Advertising identifiers: the game shows Google AdMob ads; AdMob may use device/advertising identifiers to serve and measure ads.
In-app purchases: transactions are processed entirely by the Apple App Store or Google Play. We do NOT receive or store card details; we only receive a transaction confirmation to grant items.
On-device data: coins, settings, progress, and purchased items are stored locally on your device (not sent to our servers, except purchase entitlement status used for anti-fraud).
How we use your data
To operate the leaderboard and validate purchases (server-side anti-fraud).
To display ads so the game can remain free.
For anonymous analytics to understand how the game is used and improve it.
Advertising & tracking (ATT)
The game uses Google AdMob to display ads. AdMob and its partners may use advertising identifiers and cookies to serve, personalize, and measure ads. Learn how Google uses data: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
On iOS we will ask for tracking permission (App Tracking Transparency) before using identifiers to show personalized ads. If you decline, you can still play fully and will see non-personalized ads only.
You can turn off personalized ads at Google Ad Settings (https://adssettings.google.com), or reset/delete your Advertising ID in your Android/iOS device settings.
You may also purchase the "Remove Ads" item to remove all advertising.
Third parties
Google Firebase (Anonymous Auth, Firestore, Cloud Functions, Analytics).
Google AdMob (advertising).
Apple App Store / Google Play (payment processing).
We do not sell your personal data to third parties.
Data retention & deletion
Leaderboard data (display name, score, anonymous ID) is retained until you request deletion.
Uninstalling the app removes all locally stored data on your device.
To request deletion of your leaderboard record, email [email protected]. We process requests within 30 days.
Children
The game is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
Security
We apply reasonable measures to protect your data (encryption in transit, server-side transaction validation). However, no system is completely secure.
Your rights
Depending on your region (e.g. EU/EEA under GDPR, California under CCPA), you have the right to access, correct, and delete your data, and to opt out of personalized ads. To exercise these rights, email [email protected].
We do not sell personal information as defined by the CCPA.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version will be posted on this page with its update date.
