Pintangle

Data on your device

Pintangle saves your stars and best drag count per level, total solves, Pin Drops, early pack unlocks, Mystery Daily results, streaks and streak freezes, and your settings (sound, haptics) on your device. It also remembers whether you have seen the intro and whether you own Remove Ads.

This data is not sent to the developer. Deleting the app deletes it.

Advertising (Google AdMob)

The free version of Pintangle uses the Google Mobile Ads SDK from Google. The app uses these ad formats:

• Banner ads: on Home, Packs and Album, and under the board while you play (not on the result card).
• Interstitial ads (full screen): may show when you leave a finished level with Next, Home or Replay: at most every 2nd finished level, never after the Mystery Daily, not before your 6th solve, not in the first 60 seconds after launch, and at least 120 seconds apart.
• Rewarded ads (optional, you choose to watch one for a reward): optional: a Nudge during a level, a streak freeze (you can hold one), or opening the next pack early.

According to Google's App store data disclosure page for iOS (last updated 2026-09-29 per Google, retrieved 2026-09-30), the Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect:

• IP address, which may be used to estimate the general location of a device.
• Non-user related crash logs, used to diagnose problems and improve the SDK, and possibly for advertising and analytics.
• User-associated performance data such as app launch time, hang rate or energy usage, which may also be used for displaying ads, including sharing with other entities that display ads.
• A device ID, such as the advertising identifier or other app- or developer-bounded device identifiers, which may be used for third-party advertising and analytics.
• Advertising data, such as ads you have seen, used for analytics and advertising features.
• Other product interactions, such as app launch taps and video views, used to improve advertising performance.

Google processes this data under its own policies: How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and the Google Privacy Policy.

Consent and tracking

• Google consent form: before ads load, the app asks Google's User Messaging Platform whether a consent form is required where you are. If it is, the form asks for your choices. When your region requires it, a Privacy Options button appears in the game's Settings so you can review or change your choices at any time.
• App Tracking Transparency: after the consent step, iOS shows Apple's prompt asking whether Pintangle may track you across apps and websites owned by other companies. If you choose "Ask App Not to Track", the app cannot access your device's advertising identifier (Apple documentation). You can change this any time in iOS Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.
• No ads: the one-time Remove Ads purchase stops banner and interstitial ads, and Nudges, streak freezes and early pack unlocks no longer need an ad. The Google Mobile Ads SDK still starts in the app, so the consent and tracking choices above still apply.

Purchases

Remove Ads is a one-time (non-consumable) in-app purchase. It is processed by Apple through the App Store under Apple's terms. The developer receives no payment details. To restore it on a new device, open Settings in the game and tap Restore Purchases.

Sharing and photos

After a level you can open the iOS share sheet with a result card image (your layout next to the picture, or only your lines for the Mystery Daily so it is not spoiled, plus drags, par, time and a code) and a short text with the code. Nothing leaves your device unless you pick a destination there. If you choose Save Image, iOS asks for permission to add it to Photos. The app never reads your photo library and does not use the camera, microphone, location or contacts. The Paste button reads your clipboard only when you tap it. Challenge codes contain only a level, your drag count and time, no personal data.

Children

Pintangle is a general-audience puzzle game and is not directed at children. The developer does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13. Ads and the data Google may collect are described above. If you believe a child's data was collected through the app, contact support@boggyapps.com and we will help you reach Google about it.

Your rights

Because the developer holds no personal data about you, there is nothing for us to access, correct or delete. To remove the game's on-device data, delete the app. For data Google collected for ads, use the consent and tracking choices above and Google's controls described in the Google Privacy Policy. Questions are always welcome at support@boggyapps.com.

Changes and contact

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Contact: Bogdan Shoyat, support@boggyapps.com.
