Alcheverse: Magic Sort — Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy applies specifically to the Alcheverse: Magic Sort mobile application developed by A S Apps (A S Enterprises). We respect your privacy and are committed to maintaining a secure, offline-first experience with transparent data handling practices.

2. Information We Do NOT Collect

Alcheverse: Magic Sort is designed for direct gameplay without requiring account registration or user login. We do not collect:

• Personal identifiers (Full Name, Email Address, Phone Number, Postal Address)
• Device contacts, photo gallery, media files, or file system data
• Hardware access (Camera, Microphone, Bluetooth pairing)
• GPS location data or precise geographic coordinates

3. Local Game Data (Device-Only Storage)

To ensure a seamless offline gaming experience, the app stores game state exclusively on your local device storage (via Android SharedPreferences/Local Storage):

• Gameplay Progress: Current level, completed puzzle stages, high scores, and level stars.
• In-Game Virtual Inventory: Earned coins, gems, unlocked magical bottle skins, and hints.
• Player Preferences: Audio volume, music toggles, haptic feedback settings, and selected background themes.

Note: None of your local game data is ever transmitted, backed up, or uploaded to external remote servers operated by us.

4. Advertising & Third-Party Services (Google AdMob)

Alcheverse: Magic Sort is a free-to-play app supported by non-intrusive advertisements served through Google AdMob. AdMob may automatically process non-personal data to deliver ads, prevent fraud, and ensure ad measurement:

• Advertising ID (Google AAID) & Device Hardware Model
• Coarse IP Address (used for localized country/language ad serving)
• Ad interaction telemetry (impressions, clicks, rewarded video completion)

All third-party data processing by AdMob is governed by Google's Privacy Policy.

5. Internet & Network Permissions

The app requests standard Android INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE permissions. These are used solely for fetching Google AdMob ads (rewarded video ads for bonus hints/coins & banner ads). The core puzzle game logic functions 100% offline.

6. Children's Privacy Compliance

Alcheverse: Magic Sort is designed for a general audience of puzzle enthusiasts. We do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe child data has been inadvertently processed, please contact us immediately for swift resolution.
