Sort & Solve โ€” Word Puzzle ยท Last updated: March 19, 2026

This privacy policy describes how Sort & Solve ("the App," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you use our mobile application. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our practices.

Summary

Sort & Solve is a word puzzle game. Here's the short version:

Information We Collect

Information stored on your device only

The following data is stored locally on your device using on-device storage. It is never transmitted to our servers or any third party:

Information collected by third-party services

The App uses the following third-party services that may collect information:

Service Provider Data Collected Purpose
Google AdMob Google LLC Device identifiers (Advertising ID), IP address, approximate location, ad interaction data Displaying advertisements
Firebase Analytics Google LLC Anonymous usage events (e.g., puzzle started, puzzle completed), device type, OS version, country Understanding app usage to improve the experience
Firebase Crashlytics Google LLC Crash logs, device model, OS version, app state at time of crash Identifying and fixing bugs
RevenueCat RevenueCat Inc. Anonymous user ID, purchase history, subscription status Managing in-app purchases and subscriptions

These services operate under their own privacy policies:

Advertising

The App displays advertisements provided by Google AdMob. These ads may be personalized based on your interests if you have granted tracking permission, or non-personalized if you have not.

On iOS: The App will request your permission via Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework before any personalized ad tracking occurs. If you decline, you will still see ads, but they will not be personalized to your interests.

On Android: You can opt out of personalized advertising by going to your device's Settings > Google > Ads > Opt out of Ads Personalization.

Consent management: If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or other regions that require consent for personalized advertising, the App will present a consent form on first launch. You can change your consent preferences at any time from the App's Settings screen under "Manage Ad Preferences."

Ad-free option: You can remove all advertisements by purchasing the Archive Pass in-app. When ads are removed, AdMob no longer collects data from your usage of the App.

In-App Purchases

The App offers in-app purchases (puzzle packs, hint packs, streak freezes, and the Archive Pass) processed through Apple's App Store or Google Play. We use RevenueCat to manage purchase status across your devices. We do not directly process or store any payment information โ€” all payment processing is handled by Apple or Google.

Children's Privacy

The App is rated 4+ on the App Store and "Everyone" on Google Play. However, the App is designed for adults and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child under 13, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

Data Retention

Since game data is stored locally on your device, it persists until you delete the App or clear its data. We do not maintain any server-side database of user information.

Third-party services (AdMob, Firebase, RevenueCat) retain data according to their own retention policies, linked above.

Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. Data is shared only with the third-party services listed above, solely for the purposes described (advertising, analytics, crash reporting, and purchase management).

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
