Adyghe Blast (package name com.adygheblast) is an educational puzzle game for Android. It teaches the Adyghe (Circassian) alphabet through matching play, and includes a "Dictionary Vault" of illustrated flashcards, spoken pronunciations, sound effects, and bundled background music.
This policy describes what the game does with information on your device. It is written for Google Play and for anyone who plays the game.
1. Summary
The game is designed to work entirely on your device. It does not include an Internet permission, advertising, analytics, crash-reporting, or account sign-in. We do not operate a backend that receives your gameplay, scores, progress, or any other personal data from the game.
- We do not collect personal information from the game.
- We do not sell or share user data.
- Your progress and settings stay on your device; nothing is sent to us.
2. Who this policy covers
This policy applies to the Adyghe Blast Android application published on Google Play. The developer of the game is the data controller for this policy. If we do not receive your data, there is nothing stored on our systems to access, correct, or delete.
3. Information processed on your device
The game needs to remember a small amount of local state so it can work properly — for example, how far you have progressed and your sound preferences. All of that processing happens on your phone or tablet. It is not uploaded to us.
3.1 Game progress
Adyghe Blast saves your progress locally so it persists between sessions. This includes your current letter tier, the number of letters collected into the Vault, your high score, and which dictionary flashcards you have unlocked.
This progress data is stored only on your device using Android's local preferences. It is not associated with an account, linked to your identity, or transmitted by the game.
3.2 Sound, music, and haptic preferences
Your preferences for sound effects, background music, haptic feedback, and letter pronunciation are saved in local app storage so they are remembered between sessions. The game also remembers which background track you last selected. This information stays on the device.
3.3 Audio
The game plays bundled audio clips (spoken letters and words, sound effects, and background music) that are included inside the app package. The game does not record you, and it does not use the microphone. No audio from your device is captured or sent anywhere.
3.4 Haptic feedback
The game requests the VIBRATE permission so it can give a short vibration when you make a match or clear a line. Vibration is not used to collect personal data.
4. Information we do not collect
The game does not collect or request:
- Names, email addresses, or other account information
- Location
- Contacts, photos, files, or microphone audio
- Advertising identifiers or tracking cookies
- Analytics, advertising, or crash logs sent to us or to third parties
The game does not include third-party SDKs whose purpose is advertising, analytics, or social login.
5. Sharing of information
We do not sell, rent, or share personal information obtained through the game. The game has no network access with which to transmit such information to us or to third parties.
If you contact us by email or through the project's public issue tracker, we will see whatever you choose to send in that message, and we will use it only to respond to your request.
6. Android backup
The game allows Android's standard backup feature. If device backup is enabled on your phone, Google's backup service may include local game progress and preferences (such as your high score and sound settings) in your backup. We do not receive that backup.
7. Children's privacy
Adyghe Blast is a general-audience educational game. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because the game does not collect personal information from users, we do not have children's data to delete from our servers.
The game contains no chat, messaging, social features, advertising, or in-app purchases, and no way for a child or any other player to share information with us or with third parties through the app.
8. Data security
Because all gameplay progress, preferences, and audio handling stay on the device, the main protection is that the game does not send that data over the network. You can further limit access by clearing the game's storage or by uninstalling the game.
No method of storage on a device is perfectly secure. The game does not ask you to enter secrets such as passwords or recovery codes, so you should not enter such information into the game.
9. Your choices
- You can reset the game's progress by clearing the app's storage in Android system settings.
- Uninstalling Adyghe Blast removes its local preferences from the device.
- You can turn sound, music, and haptics on or off from the game's home screen at any time.
10. International users
The game is intended to run locally on your device wherever you install it from Google Play. We do not transfer game usage data to our servers. If you contact us, the information in your message may be processed in the country where we read and respond to it.
11. Changes to this policy
If the game's behavior changes in a way that affects privacy (for example, adding network features, accounts, advertising, or leaderboards), we will update this page and the effective date. Continued use of the game after an update means you should review the revised policy.
