Explore Japan - Picture Puzzle
This Privacy Policy explains how Explore Japan - Picture Puzzle
(the “App”, application identifier com.mizuky.explorejapan)
handles information when you use it. We have designed the App to collect as little
personal data as possible. The App does not require you to create an account or
provide your name, email address, or phone number.
By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the App.
We do not ask for or directly collect personally identifiable information such as your name, email address, postal address, or phone number. There are no user accounts, logins, or social sign-ins in the App.
Your game progress and preferences are stored locally on your device and are not transmitted to us. This includes:
This data lives in the device’s local storage and is removed if you delete the App or clear its data. We cannot access or recover it.
The App uses the following third-party services, which may collect data in accordance with their own privacy policies. We do not control how these providers process data.
| Service | Purpose | Data it may process |
|---|---|---|
| Google AdMob | Showing optional rewarded video ads (e.g. for free coins or extra time) | Advertising identifier (IDFA/GAID), device & app information, approximate activity used for ad delivery and measurement |
| Google Firebase Analytics | Understanding how the App is used so we can improve it | Aggregated, non-identifying usage and device data (e.g. screen views, events such as stage clears and purchases) |
| Google Firebase Crashlytics | Diagnosing crashes and stability issues | Crash logs, device model, OS version, diagnostic state at time of crash |
| Apple App Store / Google Play Billing | Processing in-app purchases (Diamond packs) | Purchase transactions are processed by Apple or Google. We receive a transaction confirmation but not your payment-card details |
Provider privacy policies:
Ads in the App are optional and rewarded — you choose to watch them. Advertising partners may use a device advertising identifier to deliver and measure ads. You can limit or reset this identifier at any time:
The App offers optional in-app purchases (Diamond packs). Payments are handled entirely by the Apple App Store or Google Play. We do not receive or store your credit-card or billing information. Purchases unlock in-app currency only and confer no real-world value.
The App is a general-audience puzzle game and is not directed at children under the age required by your local law for consent (for example, under 13 in the United States). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so we can address it.
Game data stored on your device is retained until you delete it or uninstall the App. Data processed by third-party services is retained according to those providers’ policies.
Depending on where you live (e.g. under the GDPR or CCPA), you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data, or to object to certain processing. Because the App itself does not collect personal data tied to your identity, most requests should be directed to the third-party providers listed above. You may also contact us with any questions about this policy.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the “Last updated” date above. Continued use of the App after a change constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
