Privacy policy

Fact Hunt (“the game”) is published by Mix Theory Studios Inc. (“Mix Theory Studios,” “we,” “us”), a Florida corporation. This policy explains what information the game collects, how it is used, and the choices you have.

Information saved on your device

Fact Hunt saves your progress and settings on your device so you can pick up where you left off, including offline. This includes completed levels, stars, best times, coins, hints, cards, your Fact Journal and review schedule, streaks, and your sound, music and accessibility settings. This information is not sent to us. Deleting the game, or using Reset progress in Settings, erases it from your device.

Cloud backup

If you're signed in to Google Play Games on Android, or to iCloud on iPhone or iPad, the game saves a backup of your progress to that account so you can restore it on a new device. The backup is stored by Google or Apple under their privacy policies. We don't receive it.

Advertising (Google AdMob)

Fact Hunt is free and supported by ads, including short videos you can choose to watch for rewards such as hints. Ads are provided by Google AdMob. To show, limit and measure ads and to prevent fraud, Google may collect and use:

• Your device's advertising identifier (Android Advertising ID, or Apple's IDFA where you allow it)
• Your IP address and the approximate location it suggests
• Device and app information, such as device model, operating system and language
• How you interact with ads

Google explains its use of this information in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.

Your ad choices

• Consent. Where the law requires it (for example in the European Economic Area, the UK, Switzerland and certain US states), the game asks for your choice before personalized ads are shown. You can change it at any time in the game under Settings > Privacy options.
• iPhone and iPad. The game asks permission before tracking you across other companies' apps and websites. You can change this in iOS Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.
• Android. You can reset or delete your advertising ID in your device's Settings > Privacy > Ads.
• If you decline personalized ads, you may still see ads, but they won't be based on your activity.

Crash reports and game statistics

To find bugs and improve the game, Fact Hunt uses Google Firebase to collect crash reports and anonymous statistics about how the game is played, such as which levels are finished and which features are used. This information includes device type, operating system and an app-specific identifier. It doesn't include your name or contact details.

In-app purchases

You can buy coins, card packs, Remove Ads and Premium. Purchases are processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play under their terms. We receive confirmation that a purchase was made so we can deliver it, but we never receive your name, payment card or billing details.

What we don't do

• We don't sell your personal information.
• We don't require an account, and we don't collect your name, email address, phone number, contacts, photos or precise location.
• The game doesn't use your microphone or camera.

Age

Fact Hunt is made for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the game, contact us and we will help remove it.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal information, or to opt out of personalized advertising (including “sale” or “sharing” as defined by California and other state laws). Your game data stays on your device, so you control it directly. For advertising data, use the choices above or contact Google. For any other request, email us and we will respond within the time the law requires.

Security

Your game data is stored on your device and protected by its security. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, but we work to protect any information we handle.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will update the effective date above and post the new version on this page. We will also mention significant changes in the game's update notes.
