Garden Privacy Policy
What stays on your device
Your progress (levels, petals, streak, garden decorations and settings) is saved only on your device. Daily reminders are scheduled on your device and send nothing anywhere. A share card is made only when you tap Share, and goes only to the app you pick. Garden has no accounts and never asks for your name, email, contacts, photos or precise location.
Ads (Google AdMob)
Garden is free and shows ads between levels, plus optional video ads you choose to watch for a reward. To show and measure ads and to prevent fraud, Google's ad service collects your IP address (which gives an approximate location), your device's advertising ID and app set ID, how you interact with ads and the app (launches, taps, video views), and performance information. In the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland you are asked first whether ads may be personalized; in US states with privacy laws you can opt out. You can change your choices at any time in Garden's Settings under Privacy choices, and reset or delete your advertising ID in your device's Android settings.
Gameplay statistics and crash reports (Google Firebase), only with your consent
If you agree, Garden sends Google Firebase anonymous gameplay events (level started, finished or failed, hints used, ads watched, streak saved, with level numbers, times and hint and mistake counts), a random installation ID, and device details (model, Android version, language, country and time zone). If the app crashes, a crash report with technical details is sent. Garden also downloads game settings, such as how often ads appear, from Firebase. We use this to fix bugs and make levels better. Firebase data is never used for advertising. If you don't agree, none of it is collected and the game uses its built-in settings.
Sharing and selling
We do not sell your data. Data goes only to Google as our ad and analytics provider, under Google's Privacy Policy and how Google uses information from apps that use its services. All of it is encrypted in transit.
How long it is kept
Analytics data is kept for 2 months and crash reports for 90 days, then deleted. Progress on your device stays until you uninstall Garden or use Reset all progress in Settings.
Children
Garden is meant for players aged 13 and over and is not directed at children.
Your choices and requests
Withdraw or change consent any time in Settings, Privacy choices. Because Garden has no accounts, we can't look you up by name; to ask about or delete data, email support@nitroedgestudios.com and we will help using the information Google holds for your installation.
Changes
We'll update this page and its date when the game's data use changes.
