Privacy Policy — Explosive 2048

1. Overview

This Privacy Policy describes how Explosive 2048 ("the Game", "we") collects, uses, and handles your information when you play our game. We are committed to transparency and protecting your privacy.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Gameplay Analytics

To improve the game experience and balance difficulty, we collect anonymous gameplay statistics:

Device info: device type (mobile/desktop), screen resolution, and browser language preference
Platform info: whether you are playing on CrazyGames, Yandex Games, or directly on the web
Gameplay data: score, stage reached, moves made, merges, annihilations, undo usage
Session data: session duration, game over vs. abandonment
Stage metrics: per-stage completion rate, duration, double/chain explosion counts

      No personal information is collected. We do not ask for or store your name, email address, physical location, or any other personally identifiable information. All gameplay analytics are linked to a randomly generated session ID that cannot be traced back to you.
    

2.2 Local Storage

The game stores the following data exclusively on your device using browser local storage:

Your best score (for personal high-score tracking)
Your preferred language setting
Whether you've completed the tutorial
Your haptic feedback (vibration) preference

This data never leaves your device and is cleared when you clear your browser data.

2.3 Advertising & Platform SDKs

When played on third-party gaming platforms (such as CrazyGames or Yandex Games), those platforms may collect data according to their own privacy policies. We do not control or have access to data collected by these platforms. Please refer to each platform's privacy policy for details:

3. How We Use the Data

Game balancing: Stage difficulty and spawn rates are tuned based on aggregate completion rates.
Bug detection: Unusual patterns (e.g., 100% abandonment on a specific stage) help us find and fix issues.
Feature development: Understanding which mechanics players engage with (merges vs. annihilations, undo usage, etc.) guides future improvements.

We do not sell, share, or trade any collected data with third parties for marketing or advertising purposes.

4. Data Storage & Security

Analytics data is stored in a Cloudflare D1 database and transmitted securely over HTTPS. We retain gameplay data for internal analysis purposes. Since no personal information is collected, individual records cannot be used to identify specific users.

5. Children's Privacy

Our game does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. All data collected is anonymous gameplay statistics as described above. If you believe we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

6. Your Rights

Since we do not collect personal data, there is no personal data to access, modify, or delete. Local storage data can be cleared at any time through your browser settings. If you have questions about our data practices, please reach out using the contact information below.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
