This Privacy Policy explains how AstroByte (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you use Piggy Sudoku (package name com.astrobyte.piggysudoku), our website, and related support services.
1. Information handled by Piggy Sudoku
Information stored locally
The game stores puzzle progress, unlocked content, daily challenge status, tutorial status, audio preferences, vibration preferences, and similar settings locally on your device. We do not receive this local game data through our own servers. You can clear it from the in-game settings where available, by clearing the app's storage, or by uninstalling the app.
Information you provide
If you email us for support, we receive your email address and any information you include in your message, such as device details, screenshots, or problem descriptions. We use this information only to answer your request, maintain support records, prevent abuse, and comply with law.
Advertising and automatically processed information
Piggy Sudoku uses Google AdMob and the Google Mobile Ads SDK. Depending on your device, region, consent choices, and Google settings, Google and its advertising partners may automatically collect, use, and share:
- IP address, which may be used to estimate general location;
- device and account identifiers, including the Android Advertising ID and App Set ID where available;
- app interactions, including app launches, taps, ad impressions, ad clicks, and video views;
- diagnostic and performance information, such as crash-related data, launch time, hang rate, and energy usage;
- device, operating system, language, app version, and network information.
This information may be used for advertising, ad delivery and measurement, analytics, fraud prevention, security, and legal compliance. Ad availability and personalization vary according to your region and choices.
2. Rewarded advertisements
The game may offer optional rewarded advertisements. Choosing to watch a rewarded ad can grant an in-game benefit after the ad provider confirms completion. You can continue using the core game without clicking a rewarded-ad offer, although the relevant optional reward will not be granted.
3. Consent and advertising choices
Where required, we use Google's User Messaging Platform to request consent before advertising data is processed. Users in applicable regions may receive personalized ads, non-personalized ads, limited ads, or technical ad delivery depending on their choices and applicable law.
When required, you can review or withdraw your consent using the privacy options entry point in the game's settings. You can also reset or delete your Android Advertising ID or limit ad personalization through your device's privacy settings. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that was lawful before withdrawal.
4. Purposes and legal bases
We and our service providers process information as necessary to operate and support the game, provide requested support, serve and measure advertising, protect against fraud and abuse, comply with legal obligations, and pursue legitimate interests such as maintaining app security. Where consent is legally required, processing relies on your consent.
5. Sharing and service providers
We do not sell personal information for money. Information may be processed by Google and advertising partners involved in delivering and measuring ads. Their use of information is governed by their own terms and privacy policies:
- Google Privacy Policy
- How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services
- AdMob privacy information
We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect rights and safety, or as part of a business transaction subject to appropriate safeguards.
6. Retention and security
Local game data remains on your device until you reset it, clear app storage, or uninstall the app. Support emails are retained only as long as reasonably necessary to resolve requests, maintain records, prevent abuse, and meet legal obligations. Advertising providers determine their own retention periods.
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect information. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Children's privacy
Piggy Sudoku is a general-audience puzzle game and is not designed to knowingly collect personal information directly from children. We do not provide account registration, public chat, or user-generated content. Advertising settings, including treatment for users under the applicable age of consent, are configured in accordance with platform requirements and applicable law. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us through support, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
8. International processing
Google and other providers may process information in countries other than where you live. Where required, they use recognized legal mechanisms and safeguards for international data transfers. See their privacy documentation for details.
9. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, or withdrawal of consent, and to appeal or lodge a complaint with a data protection authority. Because we do not operate user accounts and local progress does not leave your device through our own servers, we may not possess data that can be linked to you. For support email data, send a request using the contact information below. For information controlled by Google, use Google's privacy controls or contact Google directly.
See our Data Request page for instructions.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when the game, providers, or legal requirements change. We will post the revised policy here and update the “Last updated” date. Material changes may also be communicated in the app where appropriate.

本隱私政策說明 AstroByte（下稱“我們”）在您使用豬多酷數獨（Piggy Sudoku）（包名：com.astrobyte.piggysudoku）、本網站及相關支援服務時如何處理資訊。
1. 豬多酷數獨處理的資訊
儲存在本地的資訊
遊戲會在您的裝置本地保存關卡進度、已解鎖內容、每日挑戰狀態、教學狀態、音效偏好、振動偏好及類似設定。我們不會透過自有伺服器接收這些本地遊戲資料。您可以透過遊戲內設定（如提供）、清除應用程式儲存空間或解除安裝應用程式刪除這些資料。
您主動提供的資訊
如果您透過電子郵件聯絡我們尋求支援，我們會收到您的電子郵件地址及電子郵件中主動提供的資訊，例如裝置資訊、截圖和問題描述。我們僅使用這些資訊處理請求、保留必要的支援記錄、防止濫用及履行法律義務。
廣告及自動處理的資訊
豬多酷數獨使用 Google AdMob 和 Google Mobile Ads SDK。根據您的裝置、所在地區、同意選擇及 Google 設定，Google 及其廣告合作夥伴可能自動收集、使用和分享：
- IP 地址，可能用於推斷大致位置；
- 裝置及帳號識別碼，包括可用時的 Android 廣告 ID 和 App Set ID；
- 應用程式互動資料，包括應用程式啟動、點擊、廣告展示、廣告點擊和影片觀看；
- 診斷及效能資訊，例如當機相關資料、啟動時間、卡頓率和能耗；
- 裝置、作業系統、語言、應用程式版本及網路資訊。
上述資訊可能用於廣告投放與衡量、分析、防詐欺、安全和法律合規。廣告是否可用及是否個人化，取決於您所在地區和您的選擇。
2. 激勵廣告
遊戲可能提供可選的激勵廣告。您主動選擇觀看後，廣告服務供應商確認完成觀看，遊戲才會發放相應虛擬獎勵。您可以不點擊激勵廣告並繼續使用遊戲核心功能，但不會獲得對應的可選獎勵。
3. 同意及廣告選擇
在法律要求的地區，我們使用 Google User Messaging Platform 在處理廣告資料前取得同意。根據您的選擇和適用法律，您可能會看到個人化廣告、非個人化廣告、受限廣告或僅技術投放的廣告。
如有要求，您可以透過遊戲設定中的“隱私選項”重新檢視或撤回同意。您也可以在 Android 裝置的隱私設定中重置或刪除廣告 ID、限制廣告個人化。撤回同意不影響撤回前基於有效同意進行的處理。
4. 處理目的和法律依據
我們及服務供應商為營運及支援遊戲、回應支援請求、投放及衡量廣告、防止詐欺與濫用、履行法律義務以及維護應用程式安全等合法利益處理資訊。在法律要求同意的情況下，相關處理以您的同意為依據。
5. 資訊分享及服務供應商
我們不會以收取金錢為目的出售個人資料。為投放和衡量廣告，資訊可能由 Google 及參與廣告投放的合作夥伴處理，其處理行為受各自條款及隱私政策約束：
如果法律要求、為保護權利和安全，或發生受適當保障措施約束的業務交易，我們也可能披露必要資訊。
6. 保留期限和安全
本地遊戲資料會一直保留在裝置中，直至您重置進度、清除應用程式儲存空間或解除安裝應用程式。支援電子郵件僅在解決請求、保留必要記錄、防止濫用和履行法律義務所需的合理期間內保存。廣告服務供應商自行決定其資料保留期限。
我們採取合理的管理和技術措施保護資訊，但任何儲存或傳輸方式均無法保證絕對安全。
7. 兒童隱私
豬多酷數獨是一款面向一般受眾的益智遊戲，並非為了直接、故意收集兒童個人資料而設計。我們不提供帳號註冊、公開聊天或使用者生成內容。我們會根據平台要求和適用法律配置廣告設定，包括對未達到所在地區同意年齡使用者的處理。如果您認為兒童透過支援管道向我們提供了個人資料，請聯絡我們，我們會進行核查並在適當情況下刪除。
8. 跨境處理
Google 及其他服務供應商可能在您居住地以外的國家或地區處理資訊。在法律要求的情況下，相關服務供應商會採用適用的跨境傳輸機制和保障措施，詳情請查閱其隱私文件。
9. 您的隱私權利
根據您所在地區，您可能有權請求存取、更正、刪除、限制處理、反對處理、資料可攜帶、撤回同意、提出申訴或向資料保護機構投訴。由於我們不營運使用者帳號，且本地進度不會透過我們的自有伺服器離開裝置，我們可能並不持有能夠與您關聯的資料。對於支援電子郵件資料，請透過下方聯絡方式提交請求。對於由 Google 控制的資訊，請使用 Google 的隱私控制工具或直接聯絡 Google。
具體方式請參閱資料請求頁面。
10. 政策變更
遊戲功能、服務供應商或法律要求發生變化時，我們可能更新本政策。新版政策會在此發布並更新“最後更新”日期；重大變更也可能透過應用程式內適當方式告知。
