Privacy policy

Who is responsible

Cozylings is a game by TECH SOLUTIONS CONSULTORIA EM TI LTDA., a company based in Brazil. For anything about your data, write to contato@techsolutionsce.com.br.

What stays only on your device

• Your progress: completed levels, stars, points and helpers.
• Your preferences: theme, language, sound and vibration.
• The age range that results from the first question (under 13 or not). The birth year is not stored.
• A random identifier created by the game itself, used only for the ranking.

This data is gone when you uninstall the game or clear the app data.

What goes to our server

When you are online, the game sends what the ranking needs to work:

• the random identifier of the device, which does not reveal who you are;
• your nickname: a name drawn by the game or, for players aged 13 or over, a name you typed;
• the avatar you chose;
• the result of each level: which level or challenge, time, mistakes, hints used, points, date and game version;
• the language of the game, so the nickname is drawn in your language.

Like any service on the internet, the server also records the IP address, date and time of each access. These records are used for security and are deleted after 14 days.

Ads

The game shows ads from Google AdMob. To do that, Google may collect the device advertising identifier, the IP address, and app usage and diagnostic data. That data is handled under Google's policy.

Where the law requires it, the game asks for your consent before showing personalized ads. When that choice exists, you can change it in Settings, under “Ad privacy”, and also in the Android ad settings.

Children

Cozylings can be played by children. On first launch, the game asks for the birth year only to learn whether the player is under 13.

• Players under 13 only get ads rated for all ages, with no personalization.
• Players under 13 cannot type their own nickname and only see drawn nicknames in the ranking.
• The game never asks for a name, email, photo or contact details.

Parents and guardians can ask for a child's data to be deleted through the email above.

What we use the data for

• showing the ranking and your position;
• preventing fake scores and protecting the service;
• showing ads, which keep the game free.

We process this data to provide the service you use, on our legitimate interest in keeping the game safe and, for personalized ads, on your consent.

Who we share it with

• Google, to show ads;
• the company that hosts our server;
• authorities, when the law requires it.

We do not sell anyone's data.

How long we keep it

Ranking data is kept until you delete it or until the game is shut down. Backups are encrypted and deleted after 30 days.

Your rights

You can ask to access, correct or delete your data, and ask questions about how it is handled. In Brazil these rights come from the General Data Protection Law (LGPD); other countries have similar laws, and you can also complain to your local data protection authority.

To delete everything now, see how to delete your data.

Security

Communication with the server is encrypted (HTTPS). The server only keeps a scrambled version of the device secret, which cannot be turned back into the original.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the new version appears on this page with an updated date.
