Privacy Policy

Last Updated: October 24, 2026

At Craigview Software, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information across our website (craigview.net) and our mobile applications.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information to provide and optimize our games and website experiences:

• Authentication Data: When you sign in to our games using Google or other authentication providers, we receive a unique User ID (UID) and basic profile information (such as display name) provided by the service.
• Game Progress & Cloud Saves: We store your game saves, high scores, total wins, and achievements in our cloud database (Firebase Firestore) to enable cross-device synchronization.
• Device & Technical Information: We may collect technical telemetry (e.g., device model, operating system version) to optimize performance and rendering across supported hardware.

2. Cookies & Local Storage Usage

Our website uses local browser storage and minimal cookies to deliver site functionality and remember user settings:

• Essential Site Preferences: We use browser localStorage (key: craigview_theme_preference) to save your light/dark theme selection. This essential preference is stored locally on your device and is not used for tracking.
• Optional Cookies & Advertising: Where optional cookies or ad measurement technologies are deployed (such as web advertising tags or analytics), we obtain user consent prior to initialization.

3. How We Use Your Information

We process collected data for the following essential purposes:

• To synchronize game progress and achievements seamlessly across your devices.
• To maintain global leaderboards and player statistics.
• To validate timed game rewards (such as hints) via secure server logic.
• To analyze performance telemetry, deliver website preferences, and improve engine hardware compatibility.

4. Data Security & Hosting

We rely on Firebase (provided by Google) to secure and store game cloud data. All data transmissions between our applications, site services, and servers are encrypted using standard TLS/SSL protocols.

5. Third-Party Services & AdMob Integration

Our mobile games and web properties may integrate trusted third-party services, including Google Play Services and Google AdMob. These services may collect device identifiers, coarse location data, or cookies in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy to serve ads or analyze engagement. For European Economic Area (EEA) and UK users, consent choices managed via our User Messaging Platform (UMP) prompts or web cookie preferences control how personalized advertising signals are processed.

6. Your Rights and Account Management

You can manage or delete your game account and associated cloud data directly within the "Account Settings" menu inside our games. Deleting your account permanently removes your cloud saves and leaderboard records. Under UK GDPR and applicable privacy laws, you also have the right to request access to or erasure of any personal data we hold.
