Privacy Policy

1. About this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to the Quartz Kiln mobile game (the “App”). It describes the App’s information practices and the choices available to you. The App is an offline game in which players complete glass-heating challenges.

2. Information We Collect

Quartz Kiln does not collect, request, or transmit personal information. The App does not ask you to create an account or provide your name, email address, phone number, precise location, contacts, photos, or other personal details.

The App does not use analytics, tracking, or crash-reporting SDKs to collect information about you. It does not build user profiles or track your activity across apps or websites.

3. Data Stored on Your Device

To provide the game experience, Quartz Kiln stores a limited amount of game information locally on your device. This includes:

• Completed challenges and your highest unlocked challenge;
• The challenge currently selected in the campaign;
• Your settings, including ambient motion, touch feedback, and sound preferences.

This information is used only to maintain your local game progress and preferences. Quartz Kiln does not itself upload this information to the App publisher or synchronize it between devices. There is no in-game account or cloud-save feature. An attempt that is in progress is not restored after the App has been closed.

Android system backup: Depending on your device, Android version, and system backup settings, Android may include some App data in an operating-system backup or device-to-device transfer. This is an Android platform feature, not a cloud-save feature operated by Quartz Kiln. You can review your device’s backup settings and the platform provider’s privacy information for details.

4. How Information Is Used

The locally stored information described above is used only for the App’s core functions, such as showing completed and locked challenges, unlocking the next challenge, and remembering your settings. Quartz Kiln does not use personal information for marketing, advertising, profiling, or automated decision-making.

5. Data Sharing and Sale

Because the App does not collect or receive personal information, it has no personal information to sell, rent, or share with third parties. The App publisher does not receive your locally stored game progress or settings.

6. Third-Party Services, SDKs, and Advertising

Quartz Kiln contains no third-party analytics, advertising, tracking, or other third-party software development kits (SDKs). The App displays no advertisements and includes no in-app purchases, online rankings, multiplayer rooms, or matchmaking.

The App may be distributed through an app store. The store provider may process information under its own privacy policy when you browse, download, update, or manage the App. Android system backup or device-transfer features may also process App data as described in Section 3. These platform activities are separate from Quartz Kiln and are governed by the platform provider’s settings, terms, and privacy policy.

7. Data Retention and Deletion

Your game progress and settings remain in the App’s local storage on your device until that storage is cleared or the App is uninstalled. You can remove this local information by using your device’s app-storage settings or by uninstalling Quartz Kiln. The exact steps may vary depending on your device and operating system.

The App publisher does not maintain a server-side copy of this game information and cannot restore locally stored progress after it has been deleted. Clearing the App’s storage or uninstalling it may not delete a separate backup copy previously created by Android; manage any such backup through your device or platform account settings.

8. Age Requirement

Quartz Kiln is intended for an adult audience aged 18 and over. The App does not request or collect a user’s date of birth or other information to verify age.

9. Security

Quartz Kiln does not transmit your game progress or settings to the App publisher. Information stored locally is subject to the security of your device, its operating system, and the settings you use to protect it. We recommend keeping your device’s operating system up to date and using an appropriate screen lock.

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated if the App’s functionality or applicable requirements change. Any revised version will be made available with the App or on the page where this policy is published. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was most recently revised.
