BRAWL BUILDER PRIVACY POLICY
Last updated: October 23, 2026

Brawl Builder ("the app") is made by Four Corners Development Group ("we",
"us"). This policy explains what information the app uses and why. We don't
sell your personal information.


INFORMATION WE DON'T COLLECT

There's no sign-up: the app never asks for your name or email address, and
we don't collect your contacts, photos or precise location.


INFORMATION KEPT ON YOUR DEVICE

Your progress (stages cleared, best scores, ratings you give stages), the
levels you build, and your settings (such as music on or off) are saved only
on your device. Deleting the app deletes them.


SHARED LEVELS (GOOGLE FIREBASE AND ICLOUD)

Shared ("community") levels are stored in Google Cloud Firestore, part of
Google Firebase, so players on iPhone and Android can browse, play, rate and
report them.

- Each copy of the app signs in to Firebase anonymously, which gives it a
  random Firebase ID. Browsing and playing shared levels needs nothing more.
- Sharing, rating and reporting need an account: on iPhone, Game Center.
  The app then links your Game Center player identifiers and nickname to
  your Firebase ID (so you keep the same ID, for example after reinstalling
  the app).
- A shared level includes the level itself, its name, your Game Center
  nickname as its creator, your Firebase ID and when it was shared. Ratings
  and reports you send are stored with your Firebase ID (and, for a report,
  its reason). To limit spam, the app also records how many levels you've
  shared each day.
- On iPhone, shared levels, ratings and reports are also stored in the
  app's public iCloud database (Apple CloudKit), together with an anonymous
  iCloud identifier for your account that Apple provides. Apple handles
  this data under Apple's Privacy Policy
  (https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/).

Other players can see shared levels and their creators' nicknames. You can
take down a level you shared at any time from Community Levels; to have the
rest of your shared-level data deleted, email us (below). Google processes
Firebase data under its policies:
  https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy
  https://policies.google.com/privacy


ANALYTICS (GOOGLE FIREBASE)

The app uses Google Analytics for Firebase to understand how the game is
played, so we can improve it: for example which stages are started and
finished, game overs, whether the level editor and online play are used, and
in-app purchases. Firebase also collects information such as an app-specific
installation identifier, device model, operating system version, app version,
approximate country, and when the app is opened. This information isn't used
to identify you, isn't linked to the advertising identifier, and isn't sold.
Google processes it under its policies:
  https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy
  https://policies.google.com/privacy


ADVERTISING (GOOGLE ADMOB)

The free version of the app shows ads from Google AdMob between stages and a
banner on its menus. To
show and measure ads, Google's software may collect information such as your
device's IP address (used for approximate location), device type and
settings, an app-specific device identifier, and how you interact with ads.
On iPhone, if you allow tracking when asked, it may also use your device's
advertising identifier; on Android it may use your device's advertising ID. In the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland, the app
asks for your consent before personalised ads are shown.

How Google uses information from apps that use its services:
  https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
Google's Privacy Policy:
  https://policies.google.com/privacy

You can limit ad tracking in your device's settings: on iPhone, Settings >
Privacy & Security > Tracking; on Android, Settings > Security & privacy >
Privacy > Ads (or Settings > Google > Ads) to reset or delete your
advertising ID.

On iPhone, buying "Remove Ads" in the app turns ads off.


GAME CENTER

On iPhone, if you're signed in to Apple Game Center, the app sends your number of stages
cleared and your high score to Game Center leaderboards, where other players
can see them alongside your Game Center nickname. Online matches also run
through Game Center: the players in a match see each other's nicknames, and
your game sends your button presses to them while you play. Apple relays
this traffic; we don't store it. Apple handles this data
under Apple's Privacy Policy (https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/). You can
sign out of Game Center in your device's settings.


IN-APP PURCHASES

On iPhone, purchases are handled by Apple through the App Store. We never see your
payment details. The app only learns whether you've bought "Remove Ads".


CHILDREN

The app isn't directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect
personal information from them.


CHANGES

If we change this policy, we'll update this file and the date at the top.
