Piecefull Privacy Policy
Effective date: August 1, 2026
AI Apps ("we", "us", or "our") develops Piecefull (package id dev.ai_app.piecefull), a jigsaw puzzle game for mobile devices (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains what information the App collects, how it is used, and the choices you have.
Piecefull does not require you to create an account or sign in. There is no chat, no user-generated content, and no way for one player to contact another inside the App. Most of what makes the App work — puzzle generation, your level progress, your streak — happens entirely on your device. The one exception is the optional leaderboard: see Leaderboards below.
1. Information we collect
We do not require an account. The App does not ask for your name, email address, or password, and we do not knowingly collect any information that directly identifies you.
- Game progress, stored only on your device. Level progress, streaks, and settings are saved locally on your device. This data is never transmitted to us and is deleted automatically if you uninstall the App.
- Leaderboard data, sent to our server. If you view or submit a score to a leaderboard, the App sends a device identifier, the score or time you achieved, and a nickname, plus your device's model and name. See Leaderboards below.
- Advertising and device identifiers, collected by our ad partner.The App displays ads served by Google AdMob, which may automatically collect your device’s advertising identifier, general device information, IP address, and approximate location to show relevant ads.
- Information you provide directly. The only personal information we ever receive directly from you is whatever you choose to include in an email if you contact us.
2. How we use information
- To operate, maintain, and improve the App.
- To serve the ads that support free play.
- To respond to support requests sent to us by email.
We do not sell your information, and we do not use it for any purpose unrelated to the App.
3. Leaderboards
Piecefull includes an optional global leaderboard, run on a server we operate (shared across our games). If you view or submit a score, the App sends:
- An identifier for your device — not your advertising ID, and never shared with ad partners. It is derived on your device from a platform-provided device id (Android’s SSAID or iOS’s vendor id), scrambled before it is sent so we never receive the original value. Because it is tied to the device rather than randomly generated, it stays the same if you uninstall and reinstall the App — which is what lets your leaderboard entries survive a reinstall.
- The score or time you achieved on that leaderboard.
- A nickname. Piecefullgenerates one for you automatically (something like “Swift Otter”) — it is not your real name, and the App never asks you to enter one.
- Your device’s model and name, sent once when the App first registers you, so that two devices belonging to the same player can be told apart. On Android the device name is whatever you have named your device in system settings, which on some devices includes your name; on recent iOS versions it is usually just the generic model name.
We use this solely to calculate and display rankings. This data is retained on our server until you ask us to delete it — email rpapps25@gmail.com with your in-app nickname (if any) and roughly when you played, and we’ll remove your leaderboard entries.
4. Advertising & Google AdMob
Piecefull is free to play and supported by banner and interstitial ads served through Google AdMob.
Google’s own data practices for AdMob are described in the Google Privacy Policy and Google’s EU User Consent Policy.
5. Your ad choices
- Android: Settings → Privacy → Ads, to reset your advertising ID or opt out of personalized ads.
- iOS:Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking, to decline or change your tracking choice at any time.
- You can also review ad personalization at adssettings.google.com.
6. Data safety at a glance

| Nickname (auto-generated, not entered by you) | Yes, sent to our server | No | Shown on leaderboard |
| Device model & device name | Yes, sent to our server once, on first launch | No | Telling your devices apart on the leaderboard |
| Solve times | Yes, sent to our server | No | Leaderboard ranking |
| Advertising ID, IP address, approximate location | Collected by Google AdMob, not by us | Yes | Serving the ads that support free play |
| Name, email, account info | Not collected (no account required) | — | — |
7. Data retention & deletion
Your progress lives only on your device. You can erase it at any time by clearing the App’s storage in your device settings, or by uninstalling the App. Leaderboard data is retained on our server until you ask us to delete it (see Leaderboards above). For information processed by Google AdMob, refer to Google’s own data retention practices linked above.
8. Children’s privacy
Piecefull is designed for a general audience and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us at rpapps25@gmail.com and we will delete it.
9. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live (for example, under the GDPR in the EU/UK or the CCPA in California), you may have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information, or to object to certain processing. Because Piecefull does not maintain user accounts, we hold very little information ourselves. For any request, email us at rpapps25@gmail.com.
10. Security
We rely on the security protections built into the operating system and storage APIs the App uses. No method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure, so we can’t guarantee absolute security.
11. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of the App after a change means you accept the revised policy.
