Privacy Policy
Last Updated: July 27, 2025
Overview
This Privacy Policy describes how Leaves of Blocks ("we," "our," or "the app") handles information when you use our mobile application. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.
Information We Do NOT Collect
Leaves of Blocks is designed with privacy in mind. We do NOT collect, store, or transmit any personal information about you. Specifically, we do not collect:
- Personal identification information (name, email, phone number, etc.)
- Device identifiers or advertising IDs
- Location data
- Usage analytics or behavioral data
- Crash reports or diagnostic information
- Contact lists or other personal data from your device
Information Stored Locally on Your Device
The app stores the following data locally on your device only:
Game Data
- High Scores: Your personal best scores are stored using iOS UserDefaults
- Game History: Records of your past games including score, difficulty level, blocks placed, lines cleared, and game duration are stored using Core Data
- Game Settings: Your preferred difficulty settings and other app preferences
This data:
- Remains entirely on your device
- Is never transmitted to our servers or any third parties
- Is automatically deleted if you delete the app
- Can be reset through the app's settings
Data Sharing
We do NOT:
- Share any data with third parties
- Sell any information
- Use any analytics services
- Include advertising networks
- Integrate with social media platforms for data collection
Data Security
Since all data remains on your device:
- Your game data is protected by your device's built-in security features
- We cannot access your data remotely
- Your information cannot be compromised through our servers (because we don't have any)
Children's Privacy
Leaves of Blocks is suitable for all ages. Since we do not collect any personal information, we comply with children's privacy regulations including COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act).
Changes to This Privacy Policy
If we make any changes to this Privacy Policy, we will update the "Last Updated" date above and notify users through an app update. Since our app doesn't collect data, any changes would likely be to clarify our privacy practices rather than change them.
Third-Party Services
Leaves of Blocks does not integrate with any third-party services that would collect user data. The app functions entirely offline.
Your Rights
Since we don't collect personal data, traditional data rights (like data deletion requests) don't apply. However, you can:
- Delete all locally stored game data through the app's settings
- Completely remove all app data by deleting the app from your device
Apple App Store Privacy Information
For Apple App Store submission, you can confidently select:
- Data Not Collected: Yes, this app does not collect any user data
- Third-Party SDKs: None that collect data
- Advertising: No advertising or tracking
- Analytics: No analytics collected
This privacy-first approach means your app will have minimal privacy requirements for App Store approval.
