Privacy Policy

Effective October 21, 2026 · Last updated October 21, 2026

Sliding Puzzle does not require an account. Your selected photos and puzzle progress are handled on your device. The app uses Google AdMob for advertising, which may collect and share some device and app activity data to provide and measure ads.

Photos and camera

You can choose a photo from your device or take a new picture for a puzzle. The app uses the image on your device and does not upload it to a developer-operated server. Camera access is requested only when you choose to take a picture. You can manage camera permission in your device settings.

Game data stored on your device

The app stores game state, achievements, tutorial status, and sound preferences locally on your device. We do not operate an account system or a game server that receives this data. Your device's backup settings may affect whether local app data is included in a backup.

Advertising and Google AdMob

The app uses the Google Mobile Ads SDK to request and display ads. Google may automatically collect and share information such as your IP address, app interactions (for example, app launches and ad interactions), diagnostic information, and device or account identifiers for advertising, analytics, and fraud prevention. Depending on your platform and settings, this can include an advertising identifier. The app does not send your selected puzzle photo to Google through its own photo processing.

Google processes information under its own privacy terms. Learn more in Google's Privacy Policy and Google's Mobile Ads data disclosure. You can review advertising and privacy controls in your device settings.

Children's privacy

The app does not ask players to create an account or provide a name, email address, or other contact details to play. Advertising services may process information as described above. Parents or guardians with questions about the app's privacy practices can contact us using the details on the support page.

Your choices

Choose whether to grant camera access when you want to take a photo.
Use your device's privacy and advertising settings to manage advertising identifiers and ad personalization where available.
Remove locally stored app data by clearing the app's data or uninstalling the app. Device backups may retain backed-up data.
Contact privacy@dsmc.fyi with privacy questions.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy when the app or its data practices change. The latest version will be posted on this page with an updated date. For privacy questions, email privacy@dsmc.fyi.
