Allthemyth (“we”, “us”) built Word Bloom as a free mobile game. This policy explains what information the app handles, why, and the choices you have. We designed Word Bloom to need as little of your data as possible — there are no accounts and no sign-in.
1. Overview
Word Bloom does not require you to create an account or provide any personal information to play. Your game progress and settings are stored only on your device. The main data sharing that occurs is with our advertising partner (Google AdMob) so we can show ads that keep the game free, and with the app store when you make an optional purchase.
2. Information we handle
Stored on your device (not sent to us):
- Your current level, coin balance, daily-reward streak, and audio / haptics settings. This is saved locally on your device and is removed when you uninstall the app.
Collected automatically by our ad and store partners:
- Advertising identifiers (e.g. Google Advertising ID), device information (model, OS version, language, coarse region), IP address, and ad-interaction data — used by Google AdMob to serve and measure ads. See Advertising below.
- Purchase records — if you buy something, the app store (Google Play or Apple) processes the transaction and tells the app whether it succeeded. We never receive or store your payment card details. See Purchases.
We ourselves do not collect your name, email, contacts, photos, precise location, or any similar personal data, and we do not run our own analytics or tracking servers.
3. Advertising (Google AdMob)
Word Bloom displays banner, interstitial, and rewarded ads through Google AdMob. To do this, AdMob and its partners may collect and process the identifiers and device data described above to serve ads, limit repetition, and measure performance and fraud.
Your ad-consent choice. Where required (for example in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland), we show Google’s consent request the first time you open the app, letting you choose between personalized and non-personalized ads. You can change this choice any time from Settings → Privacy options inside the game.
You can also limit ad personalization at the device level using Reset advertising ID / Opt out of Ads Personalization (Android) or Limit Ad Tracking (iOS). For details on how Google uses data from apps that use its services, see Google’s Privacy & Terms.
4. In-app purchases
The game offers optional purchases such as “Remove Ads” and coin packs. These are handled entirely by Google Play Billing or the Apple App Store. Those platforms process your payment and their own privacy policies apply to that transaction. The app only learns whether a purchase completed so it can unlock the corresponding item; we do not see your financial information.
5. Children’s privacy
Word Bloom is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps. Ads shown in the app are configured to be family-friendly where applicable.
6. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live (for example under the EU/UK GDPR or the California CCPA/CPRA), you may have the right to access, correct, or delete personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. Because we store no personal data on our own servers, you can exercise the most important controls directly:
- Change ad consent: Settings → Privacy options in the game.
- Delete local data: uninstalling the app removes all progress and settings stored on your device.
- Ad identifier: reset or opt out via your device settings (see Advertising above).
For requests involving data held by our partners, or any other privacy request, email us at allthemyth@gmail.com and we will respond within a reasonable time.
7. Third-party services
The app relies on these services, each with its own privacy policy:
- Google AdMob & Google User Messaging Platform — Google Privacy Policy
- Google Play Billing — Google Privacy Policy
- Apple App Store (iOS) — Apple Privacy Policy
8. Data retention & security
Game data lives on your device for as long as the app is installed and is deleted when you uninstall. Data handled by our partners is retained according to their policies. While no method of transmission is 100% secure, we and our partners use industry-standard safeguards to protect the limited data involved.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the “Last updated” date above and, if significant, by an in-app notice. Continued use of the app after an update means you accept the revised policy.
