Summary
Shapes Blast! has no accounts and no Suena server. Your game lives on your iPhone. The app uses Google Firebase (Analytics and Remote Config), Google AdMob for ads, and Apple’s Game Center, StoreKit and Keychain. It never asks for your name, email or location.
| Data | Where it lives | Removed by deleting the app? |
|---|---|---|
| Top-10 scores and best per board, board snapshots, saved games, power-up balances, daily streak and claim history, preferences, lifetime stats, a random install ID | On your iPhone | Yes |
| First-launch date, “welcome offer used”, “starter kit claimed” | Your iPhone’s Keychain | No |
| Usage events with your install ID, app version and build | Google Firebase Analytics | No (kept per Google) |
| Game settings downloaded at launch | Google Firebase Remote Config | Not personal data |
| Advertising and device identifiers, ad interactions | Google AdMob | No (kept per Google) |
| Game Center scores and achievements (if signed in) | Apple | No (your Apple account) |
| Purchase records | Apple | No (your Apple account) |
On your iPhone
Scores, a picture of your final board for each top-10 entry, games in progress for each board, all six power-up balances, your daily streak and up to 400 days of claim history, settings, achievement progress and lifetime stats are stored in the app’s local storage. They aren’t backed up to a Suena server or synced through iCloud. Deleting the app erases them, including any power-ups you bought.
Keychain markers
Three small markers are saved in the iOS Keychain: the date you first opened the app, whether you’ve used the new-player welcome offer, and whether you’ve claimed the welcome kit. Keychain items stay on the device after you delete the app, so reinstalling doesn’t grant the welcome kit or offer again. They contain no gameplay or personal details.
Firebase services
- Analytics (Google Analytics for Firebase)
- Records about 40 kinds of events: app opens; games started and finished, with the board, final score and duration; pieces placed; each power-up used; purchases started, completed or cancelled, with the product, price and currency; ad events; settings changes; onboarding; and review prompts. Each event carries a random install ID created on your iPhone, the app version and build, and Firebase’s own app-instance identifiers. We use it to understand how the game is played and to fix problems.
- Remote Config
- At launch, downloads game settings: power-up economy, ad timing and on/off switches, sale campaigns and the welcome offer. It doesn’t upload your game data.
Shapes Blast! doesn’t use Firebase sign-in, a Firebase database or crash reporting. Google processes this data under its own terms; see Firebase privacy and security.
Game Center
Game Center is optional. If you’re signed in, the app submits a finished game to the Classic, Hexagon or Triangle leaderboard when it beats your best on that board, and reports achievements, using your Game Center player ID. Apple manages this data under the Apple Privacy Policy.
Ads and tracking
Shapes Blast! shows ads from Google AdMob: a banner on the menu and (on taller iPhones) the game screen; a full-screen ad only at game over, at most once every two games and eight minutes; and rewarded ads that you choose to watch for a free power-up or a Revive. AdMob may collect device and advertising identifiers and information about ad interactions. See how Google uses information in ads.
After the splash screen, iOS shows Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt: “This lets us show ads that are more relevant to you. Your choice does not affect gameplay.” If you allow tracking, AdMob may use your advertising identifier (IDFA) to personalize ads across apps and websites. If you decline, ads are still shown without the IDFA. The ads SDK starts only after you answer. Change your choice any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
Remove Ads turns off banner and full-screen ads and also hides all rewarded-ad offers.
Purchases
Purchases are handled by Apple through the App Store. We never see your payment card or billing details. The app learns which products you bought so it can credit power-ups or remove ads, and Analytics records purchase events as described above.
Notifications and reviews
If you allow it, the app schedules a local notification on your iPhone when the Store’s free reward is ready. There are no push notifications. Turn it off in Settings → Preferences or in iOS Settings. The app may occasionally show Apple’s standard rating prompt; Apple handles any rating you leave.
Children
Shapes Blast! is rated 4+ on the App Store, which means its content is suitable for all ages. The app does not ask anyone for a name, email, contact details or location, and has no chat or social features. It does show AdMob ads, may ask permission to track for personalized ads, and sends usage analytics, as described above, to every player. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has used the app, you can deny tracking in iOS Settings, use Screen Time restrictions, or contact us with questions.
How long data is kept
Data on your iPhone stays until you delete it or the app. Keychain markers stay on the device. Google keeps Analytics and AdMob data according to its retention settings and policies. Apple keeps Game Center and purchase records with your Apple Account.
Deleting your data
There is no reset or delete option inside the app.
- On-device data: delete the app. This removes scores, snapshots, saved games, streak, settings and all power-ups, including purchased ones, which can’t be restored. Remove Ads can be restored later.
- Keychain markers remain on the device; they only record that the welcome kit and offer were used.
- Game Center: managed by Apple in your Game Center settings.
- Analytics: email hello@suenainteractive.com and we’ll help with a deletion request to Google where we can.
- Advertising identifier: deny tracking or reset your identifier in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security.
Your choices and rights
- Allow or deny tracking in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
- Use Game Center or not; it’s optional.
- Turn the free-reward notification on or off in Settings → Preferences.
- Buy Remove Ads to turn off banner and full-screen ads (this also hides rewarded-ad offers).
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or get a copy of your personal information, or to object to certain uses. Email us to make a request.
