Privacy Policy

1. Information we collect

1.1 Data stored locally on your device

The following data is stored locally on your device only:

• Game progress, daily streak and level completion status
• Game settings and preferences (sound, music, haptics, language)
• High scores and achievements
• Premium purchase status

This data never leaves your device and is not accessible to us or any third parties.

1.2 Advertising data (collected by Google AdMob)

To support free gameplay, Slide15 displays advertisements through Google AdMob. AdMob may collect:

• Device identifiers (IDFA - Identifier for Advertisers)
• Device information (device type, OS version)
• Ad interaction data (ad views, clicks)
• General location (country/region, derived from IP address)

AdMob processes this data for showing personalized advertisements, measuring ad performance, and preventing fraud. We do not have access to this data — it is collected, processed, and stored by Google according to Google's Privacy Policy.

2. Your privacy choices

2.1 App Tracking Transparency (ATT)

When you first launch Slide15, you'll see a system prompt asking permission to track your activity across other apps and websites. This is required by Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework.

If you allow tracking: AdMob can use your IDFA to show personalized ads based on your interests; ads may be more relevant.

If you deny tracking: AdMob shows non-personalized (contextual) ads instead. You'll still see the same number of ads, but they won't be tailored to your interests.

You can change this anytime in: Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking → Slide15.

2.2 Premium version (no ads)

You can purchase Premium to remove all advertisements permanently. Once purchased, no advertising data is collected.
