Privacy policy
Effective 20 August 2026.
Brickmatic is a game. It has no accounts, no sign-up and no server of ours behind it. Nothing you do in the app is sent to us, because there is nowhere for it to go.
Two third parties are involved, and only two: Google AdMob, which serves the ads in the free version, and the store you installed from — the App Store or Google Play — which handles any purchase. Both are described below.
What stays on your device
Your settings and your high scores are saved on the device using the operating system’s own storage. They never leave it, they are not backed up to us, and deleting the app deletes them.
Ads
The free version shows a full-screen ad between runs, served by Google AdMob. Serving an ad means Google receives information from your device — typically an advertising identifier, your IP address and therefore an approximate location, and how you interacted with the ad. Google’s own description of what it collects through apps like this one is at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
We do not receive any of it. We see aggregate counts of how many ads were shown, and nothing that identifies anyone.
The paid unlock removes ads entirely. Once it is active, no ad is ever requested.
If you are in the EEA, the UK or Switzerland
Before the first ad is requested, the app asks for your consent using Google’s certified consent platform. No ad request leaves the device until you have answered. You can change your answer at any time: open the preferences page in the app and choose PRIVACY.
If you are on iOS
Apple requires a separate prompt before an app may use the advertising identifier for tracking. If you choose Ask App Not to Track, the identifier is not available and the ads you see are contextual rather than personalised. Declining costs you nothing in the app.
Purchases
The one-off unlock is sold by the App Store or by Google Play. They take the payment and tell the app whether you own the product. We never see your card number, your billing address or your name — only a receipt confirming the purchase exists, which is also how RESTORE puts the unlock back on a new device without an account.
What the app does not do
There is no analytics SDK, no crash reporting, no attribution or tracking SDK, no social login and no newsletter. The app makes no network connection other than the two named above. The only other outbound action it can take is opening this page or the support page in your browser, at your request.
Children
Brickmatic is not directed to children under 13 and is not in the App Store’s Kids Category. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information through the app, write to us and we will look into it.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or object to the processing of your personal information.
Because we hold none, there is little for us to act on: the data on your device is removed by deleting the app. Requests about the advertising data Google holds go to Google, through the links above. Requests about your purchase go to the store that took the payment.
If you want to withdraw consent for personalised ads, use the PRIVACY row in the app’s preferences.
Changes
This page is versioned in the project’s source repository, so every change to it is dated and visible. The effective date at the top changes in the same commit as the text it describes.
