Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Сканворд 2026 / Scandinavian Crossword 2026 ("the App", "we", "us") collects, uses, and protects information when you use the App.

1. Information We Collect

The App may collect the following categories of information:

• App usage and interaction data, such as app launches, level starts, level completions, hint usage, coin balance events, store screen opens, and ad-related events.
• Advertising data, such as ad load events, impressions, clicks, rewarded ad completion, and interstitial or banner ad events.
• Device identifiers and advertising identifiers, where permitted by your device settings, consent choices, and applicable platform rules.
• Diagnostics and technical data, such as crash, performance, and error information, as provided by analytics, advertising, or platform services.
• Customer support information, such as the message you send through the feedback form, optional email address, app version, language, and submission time.
• Purchase history and transaction status for Apple App Store or Google Play in-app purchases where those editions offer purchases, such as coin packs, ad removal, or subscriptions. The RuStore edition does not offer or process in-app purchases.

The App stores some gameplay information locally on your device, including coins, settings, progress, and unlocked levels. Local gameplay data is used to provide the App's features and is not intentionally sent to our servers unless included in analytics events or support messages.

2. How We Use Information

We use information to provide and improve gameplay features, save progress and settings, show ads and rewarded ads, measure app performance, understand how the App is used, detect errors, respond to support requests, deliver or restore purchases where available, prevent fraud, and comply with legal, platform, and app store requirements.

3. Advertising and Tracking

The App may show ads, including banner, interstitial, and rewarded ads. The RuStore edition uses Yandex Mobile Ads as its only advertising provider and does not include Google Mobile Ads / AdMob or Google's User Messaging Platform. Other store editions may use Yandex Mobile Ads, Google Mobile Ads / AdMob, or mediation partners as described by their in-app privacy controls.

Where required, the App requests advertising and privacy choices through in-app controls or controls provided by the operating system. The RuStore edition asks whether you allow personalized advertising and anonymous analytics, stores that choice on your device, and passes the advertising consent value to Yandex Mobile Ads on each launch. If you decline, ads may still be shown without personalization and Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics collection remain disabled. You can change the choice in the App settings.

4. Analytics

The App uses analytics services such as Firebase Analytics to understand app usage, improve levels and features, and diagnose issues. Analytics events may include gameplay actions, language, level identifiers, progress percentages, coin balance changes, purchase events where applicable, ad events, and technical metadata. In the RuStore edition, Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics collection are disabled unless you allow analytics in the in-app privacy choice.

5. Feedback and Support

If you contact us through the App's feedback form, we collect the message you submit and, if you choose to provide it, your email address. This information is used to read, manage, and respond to support requests. Feedback may be processed through a third-party support or survey provider, such as Formbricks.

6. In-App Purchases and Virtual Items

The RuStore edition has no in-app purchases, paid coin packs, ad-removal products, or subscriptions, and does not integrate RuStore Pay. In that edition, coins are earned through gameplay and rewarded ads, including the optional offer of 1,000 coins after a completed rewarded-ad view.

Other store editions may offer virtual items, coins, ad removal, subscriptions, or other in-app purchases. Payments are processed by Apple through the App Store on iOS or by Google through Google Play on Android. We do not receive or store your full payment card details.

Virtual coins and similar in-app items have no cash value, are not transferable, and may only be used inside the App. Coins may be earned through gameplay, rewarded ads, promotions, or purchased through in-app purchases where available.

Purchase history and transaction status may be used to deliver purchased items, restore purchases, prevent fraud, provide support, and understand purchase performance. Apple or Google may provide transaction information needed to validate and manage purchases, but payment card details remain handled by the applicable app store.

7. Third-Party Services

The App may use third-party services, including Firebase / Google services for analytics and crash reporting, Yandex Mobile Ads for advertising, Formbricks or a similar provider for feedback and support messages, and the applicable store for distribution and updates. Store-specific services may include Apple services for App Store distribution and payments, Google services for Google Play distribution and payments, or RuStore services for distribution, updates, and reviews. Google Mobile Ads / AdMob and Google's User Messaging Platform are not included in the RuStore edition. These providers may process data according to their own privacy policies and SDK behavior.

8. Children's Privacy

The App is not intended to collect personal information from children knowingly. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the feedback form, contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

9. Your Choices

You can manage available tracking, advertising, and privacy choices through the App and your iOS or Android device settings, choose not to provide an email address in the feedback form, and request deletion of support messages or personal information by contacting us.

10. Data Retention

Local gameplay data remains on your device until you reset it, delete the App, or clear the App's data. Support messages, purchase records, and analytics data may be retained as long as needed for support, security, analytics, legal compliance, purchase management, and app improvement.
