Paint Paws: Pixel Color Puzzle (“Paint Paws” or “the app”) is made by QuickGame World Inc. (“we”, “us”). This policy explains what information the app and this website handle, who receives it and why.
The short version: there are no accounts, your progress is saved on your device, and we do not run servers that collect information about you. The app works with three outside services: Google AdMob for ads, RevenueCat for purchases and Expo for app updates. Each receives only what it needs to do its job.
What stays on your device
Your progress, coins, stars, restored town spots and settings are saved in the app’s storage on your device. They are not sent to us. Deleting the app deletes them.
Ads: Google AdMob
Paint Paws is free to play and shows ads served by Google AdMob. When the app asks for an ad, Google receives information such as your IP address, device model, operating system, app version and, where you allow it, your device’s advertising identifier (the IDFA on iOS, the Android advertising ID on Android). Google uses this to show, measure and personalize ads and to prevent fraud. See how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
- Consent. If you are in the European Economic Area, the UK or Switzerland, or in a US state whose privacy law requires it, the app asks for your choices with Google’s consent tool (the User Messaging Platform) before any ad loads. You can change them at any time in the app under Settings, then Privacy options.
- Tracking on iOS. After you have played a few levels, iOS asks whether Paint Paws may track you (App Tracking Transparency). If you say no, your IDFA is not shared and ads are not personalized with it. You can change this in iOS Settings, Privacy & Security, Tracking.
- Android. You can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of ad personalization, in your device’s Google settings under Ads.
- Content. Ads in Paint Paws are limited to content rated for general audiences.
- Remove Ads. Buying Remove Ads turns off the ads that appear between levels. Ads you choose to watch for a reward stay available.
Purchases: Apple, Google and RevenueCat
In-app purchases are made through the Apple App Store or Google Play. They handle payment; we never see your card or payment details. The app uses RevenueCat to confirm purchases and to restore them. RevenueCat receives a random, anonymous user ID created on your device, your purchase and transaction records, and basic device and app information (such as operating system, app version and store country). It does not receive your name or email from us. See RevenueCat’s privacy policy.
App updates: Expo
When the app opens, it checks Expo’s update service for small fixes and content updates. These requests include the app version, platform and the IP address they come from. See Expo’s privacy policy.
What we do not collect
Paint Paws has no sign-up and does not ask for your name, email, contacts, location, photos or microphone. We do not run our own analytics in the app, and we do not sell your personal information.
This website
paintpaws.dested.com uses no analytics or advertising cookies. Our hosting keeps standard server logs (IP address, browser and the pages requested) to keep the site running and secure.
Children
Paint Paws 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 given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal information about you, or to object to how it is used. We do not keep personal information about you on our own servers; game data lives only on your device. For information held by Google or RevenueCat, use the controls above, contact them directly, or write to us and we will help.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update it here and change the date at the top. Significant changes will also be noted in the app’s store listing.
