1. Overview
Sudoku - Classic Puzzle is a classic Sudoku game for Android. The app is designed for puzzle play, difficulty levels, hints, saved progress, game settings, and comfortable daily play.
This Privacy Policy explains what information may be accessed, processed, stored, collected, or shared when you use the app.
2. Information you provide directly
The app does not require you to create an account. The app does not directly ask you to provide your name, email address, phone number, physical address, account login details, or payment card details.
If you contact support by email, we will receive the information you choose to include in that email, such as your email address, app issue, screenshots, or device details.
3. Local game data stored on your device
The app may store game-related information locally on your device, such as puzzle progress, difficulty settings, pencil/notes state, hints, statistics, themes, coins or rewards, premium state, and other gameplay preferences.
This local data helps the game remember your progress and settings. Local app data may be removed when you clear the app data, uninstall the app, or reset game progress where the app provides that option.
4. Permissions and device access
The app is designed as a puzzle game and should not require access to sensitive device features such as contacts, call logs, SMS, microphone, or precise location for normal gameplay.
If a future version adds features that require additional permissions, this policy and the app’s Play Store declarations should be updated accordingly.
5. Ads, analytics, purchases, and diagnostics
Depending on the installed version, settings, user consent, and availability, the app may use third-party services such as Google AdMob, Firebase Analytics, Firebase Crashlytics, Google Play Billing, and Google Play services.
These services may process information such as app interactions, approximate device information, advertising identifiers, diagnostics, crash logs, performance data, purchase status, and other technical information needed to provide ads, rewarded ads, analytics, billing, and app reliability features.
These third-party services process information according to their own privacy policies and terms.
6. How information is used
Information may be used to:
- Provide Sudoku gameplay and saved progress.
- Save local game settings, statistics, themes, and preferences.
- Provide optional ads or rewarded ads where enabled and permitted.

7. Sharing of information
PieterPan Digital does not sell your personal information. Information may be shared with service providers only where needed for app features, diagnostics, ads, billing, analytics, legal compliance, or support.
8. Data retention and deletion
Local game data remains on your device until you delete it, clear the app data, reset progress where available, or uninstall the app. Support emails are retained only as long as reasonably needed to respond to your request, keep business records, prevent abuse, or meet legal obligations.
