Privacy Policy · Matching Numbers

1. Overview

Matching Numbers is a casual number-matching puzzle game. We built it to be simple: there are no accounts, no logins, and nothing about you personally leaves your device except what is strictly required to show ads. This policy describes what data is involved, who touches it, and how you can control it.

2. Information we collect

Information stored on your device

The app stores your game progress locally on your device using standard Android/iOS storage. This includes:

Your current level and total score.
Your in-progress board (so you can resume with Continue Game).
Your star count and the dates you have completed daily challenges.

This information stays on your device. It is not uploaded to us or to any third party, and it is removed when you uninstall the app or use Settings › Reset all progress.

Information used to serve ads

The app displays banner and rewarded video ads through the Unity LevelPlay mediation platform. To do that, the following data is processed by our advertising partners (see section 4):

Your device's advertising identifier (Google Advertising ID on Android, IDFA on iOS).
Device information (model, operating system version, language, timezone, screen size).
Network information (mobile carrier, connection type, IP address — from which approximate location is derived).
Ad-serving events (which ads were requested, shown, clicked, or completed).

We do not receive or store this data ourselves. It is handled by the ad networks under their own privacy policies.

What we do NOT collect

Your name, email address, phone number, or any account credentials.
Your precise (GPS) location.
Your contacts, photos, camera, microphone, or files.
Any in-app purchase or payment information (the app does not currently support purchases).

3. How we use the information

The advertising data described above is used to select relevant ads, measure ad performance, prevent fraud (for example, detecting fake clicks), and comply with legal obligations. We do not sell your data. We do not build advertising profiles ourselves — the ad networks do this on their own platforms.

5. Data retention

Data stored on your device is kept until you delete it (via Settings › Reset all progress) or uninstall the app. Advertising data handled by the third parties in section 4 is retained according to their own retention schedules; see their policies for details.

6. Children

Matching Numbers is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided data through the app, contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

7. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights under laws such as the GDPR (EU/EEA), UK GDPR, or CCPA (California). These may include the right to:

Access the personal data associated with your device.
Request correction or deletion of that data.
Object to or restrict certain processing.
Withdraw consent to personalised advertising at any time.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at kdanpatrick@gmail.com.

8. How to opt out of personalised ads

You can limit or reset your advertising identifier at any time from your device's system settings:

Android: Settings › Privacy › Ads › Delete advertising ID or Reset advertising ID.
iOS: Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking — disable Allow Apps to Request to Track.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of the page shows when it was last revised. Continued use of the app after a change means you accept the updated policy.
