Privacy Policy

This app has no account. Your game and your records stay on the phone. To see how the app is used, it sends usage statistics to Firebase Analytics (Google), and this website counts visits with Google Analytics. An ad plays only when you choose to fill a missed day, and that ad is served by Google AdMob.

What the app sends

Usage statistics: the names and numbers of things that happened — which deal you opened and with how many suits, whether you won it, in how many moves and how long, and which screens you opened. Firebase attaches an identifier it assigns to each install, along with the device model, OS version and an approximate region. No name, email or account is involved, and the device's advertising identifier is not included (on iPhone or Android).

Where your cards lie is never sent, and your records table is never uploaded. When you start a deal and when you win it, that deal's number and suit count (plus moves and time on a win) go out once each.

Tapping "Privacy Policy" or "Support" in Settings asks your browser to open this site. That is your browser fetching a web page; the app attaches nothing about you to it.

An ad plays only when you choose to fill a missed day (a rewarded ad). You choose that from an empty day in the Records calendar, or from "Fill an empty day" or "Fill yesterday" in the box shown after a win. There are no ads while you play, when you open a game, or anywhere else. If you never choose to fill a day, the ad network is never even started.

The ad is served by Google AdMob. To choose ads, count that they were shown, and prevent abuse, AdMob receives: an approximate location derived from your IP address, how you viewed and tapped the ad, information about the device and app, and the advertising identifier described below. In the UK and Europe you are asked for consent first. If you say no, ads still appear but are not personalized.

On iPhone, iOS asks whether to allow tracking the first time you choose an ad. The advertising identifier (IDFA) is sent only if you allow it. Ads still appear if you don't.
On Android, the device's advertising ID is sent. Android gives it to apps without asking. You can delete or reset it in your device settings under Privacy › Ads (the exact place varies by device); once deleted, AdMob chooses ads without it.

You can change your consent under Ad privacy choices in Settings (shown only where consent is required). How Google uses this information is described in Google's explanation.

This website

This website, outside the app, uses Google Analytics to see how many people visit. The page address and approximate information about your device and browser go to Google, and Google sets a cookie in your browser to do this. No name, email or account is involved, and nothing is used for advertising. It is counted separately from the app's statistics; we do not join website visitors to app users.

The server that serves these pages also keeps short-lived access logs, as any web server does.

What the app keeps on your device

Three things, all of which stay on the phone.

The game you were playing — so you can pick it up after closing the app: where the cards lie, the moves you can still undo, and the time so far.
Your settings — suit count, tap to move, hold to preview, dimming, which side the stock sits on, sound, haptics, and whether you have seen the guide.
Your records — which deal you opened when, in how many moves and how long you won it, and the day it filled if it filled a missed day. This is what the records screen shows.

All three live in the app's own storage. If you have device backup switched on — Apple's backup (iCloud or a computer) on iPhone, your Google Account backup on Android — that storage may be included in the backup, which is a matter between you and Apple or Google.

Deleting the app deletes them. There is no copy anywhere else.

Children

This app is not directed at children. We never ask for or determine anyone's age.
