Privacy Policy · BLOCKR

This Privacy Policy explains how BLOCKR (“we,” “our,” or “us”) handles information when you use the iOS app and the pages at cody1.co.uk/apps/blockr.

BLOCKR is in active development; we may update this policy before App Store release.

Information stored on your device

BLOCKR keeps gameplay data locally so the app can remember progress and settings. This may include:

Scores, personal bests, lifetime totals, line clears, combo highs, and saved Classic runs.
Daily Forge bests, star ratings, streak counters, official daily attempt state, and practice replay history for the current day.
Workshop level stars, journey progress, and Blitz or Zen session stats.
Achievement unlock progress across tiered badges.
Preferences such as sound, background music, haptics, and Zen next-tray preview.

This local data is used to run the game and is not sent to Cody1 servers as a separate account database.

Leaderboards, profile, and achievements

If you use cloud leaderboards, your display name, avatar choice, and eligible scores (Classic, Daily, Blitz bests, and daily streak) may sync through iCloud / CloudKit so global boards stay in sync across devices.
If you use Apple Game Center, Apple may process your Game Center player profile, leaderboard submissions, and related activity under Apple’s privacy terms.
Achievement progress and local personal bests remain on your device; leaderboard rows are submitted when you finish eligible runs and when iCloud or Game Center is available.

Advertising

BLOCKR may show a banner ad during gameplay and interstitial ads after some completed runs when ads are enabled. Rewarded video ads may appear when you choose extra hints beyond your free allowance. Ads are provided by Google Mobile Ads (AdMob). Google may process device, advertising, and usage information according to its policies, any consent choices presented in the app (including Google’s UMP flow where applicable), and your iOS advertising settings.

There is no Remove Ads in-app purchase in the current build.

Information the website uses

The marketing, support, and privacy pages are a static site. They do not require an account or contact form. Your browser may send standard request information (such as IP address and user agent) to Cloudflare so the site can be served securely.

How we use information

Save progress, settings, streaks, stats, achievements, and Classic resume data.
Show puzzle feedback, results, leaderboards, Workshop stars, and personal bests.
Show and measure advertising for banner, interstitial, and optional rewarded hint placements.
Respond when you contact support.

Third-party services

We do not sell your personal data. Limited data may be processed by:

Apple (App Store distribution when released, iCloud / CloudKit for cloud leaderboards and player profiles, Game Center for official boards).
Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) (advertising).
Cloudflare (website hosting).

Your choices

Control sound, music, haptics, and Zen next-tray preview in Settings.
Set display name and avatar on the Profile tab.
Use iOS Settings to manage iCloud, Game Center, notification permissions (if added in a future build), and advertising preferences.
Delete the app to remove local game data from your device. Information held by Apple, Google, or Cloudflare is managed through those providers’ controls.

Children

BLOCKR is intended for a general audience. The app is not designed to collect personal information from children through a Cody1 account system. Third-party services such as Google Mobile Ads have their own practices.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will change when we do.
