Privacy Policy — Pawrrow: Arrow Puzzle Escape

Last updated: October 2026

This policy describes Pawrrow: Arrow Puzzle Escape as built today. If the app changes (for example, if new features are added), this document and the in-app policy will be updated before those changes take effect.

What we store

Your level progress, stars, best scores, settings, statistics, daily streak and tasks, and the animal friends you’ve rescued are saved on this device. Android may include them in your device backup to your Google account, which you control in your phone’s settings. We don’t run any servers and never receive this saved data.

What we don’t collect

The game has no accounts. It doesn’t collect your name, email, phone number, contacts, photos, precise location or advertising ID.

Anonymous gameplay statistics

When online, the game sends gameplay statistics to Google Analytics for Firebase: which levels were played and how they went (stars, moves, mistakes, hints, revives, time), whether you allowed notifications, and basic app and device information (app version, device model, OS version, and approximate location such as your country, based on your IP address). They are linked only to a random app-instance ID that Firebase creates on your device, not to your name or any account, and help us balance levels and fix bugs. Advertising ID collection and ad personalisation are turned off. You can turn statistics off at any time in Settings → Privacy → Anonymous statistics; turning them off, or using Reset Progress, also clears the analytics data kept on your device and starts a new random ID. The statistics also include which ads were shown or rewarded, taps on Share, Rate and Report a bug, and update checks.

Ads

The game shows ads from Google AdMob: a small banner on the level list, the Daily tasks, Sanctuary and Settings screens and the pause menu, an ad card marked “Ad” at the end of the Stats screen, an occasional ad between levels, and a short video you can choose to watch for an extra hint, extra lives or a streak freeze. Ads never cover the board, and videos play only when you choose to watch one. Every ad request is marked as directed to children, so ads are non-personalised, rated suitable for all ages (G), and don’t use the advertising ID. To deliver and measure ads and prevent fraud, Google uses your IP address (approximate location), basic device information and a random app set ID. Learn more at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

Updates

The game checks Google Play for new versions, and when it starts it downloads small updates from Expo (EAS Update), using a random install ID and basic app information. These checks can’t be turned off, because they keep the game working and secure. Expo’s privacy policy: expo.dev/privacy.

Permissions

Vibration is used for haptic feedback during play. Notifications are optional: if you allow them, the game shows one daily puzzle reminder in the evening, scheduled on your device, and stops after a few days without play. Their content is never sent anywhere; only whether you allowed notifications is included in the statistics. You can turn reminders off in Settings at any time. The game doesn’t use the microphone, camera, contacts or precise location.

Sharing and ratings

The Share button opens your phone’s own share menu with a short text about your result and a Google Play link; nothing is sent unless you choose where to share it. After some levels the game may ask if you’d like to rate it: Rate now opens the game’s Google Play page, and your rating goes to Google Play, not to us.

Deleting your data

Use Settings → Reset Progress to clear your progress and the analytics data kept on your device, or uninstall the app to remove everything it stored. Statistics already sent can’t be linked back to you; Google Analytics keeps them for two months and then deletes them. Google (AdMob) and Expo keep the data they receive under their own privacy policies.

Security

Everything the game sends uses encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS). We don’t run servers of our own, so nothing about you is stored by us.

Your privacy choices

In Settings → Privacy you can turn anonymous statistics off or on at any time. Because the game is for all ages, every ad request is marked as directed to children: ads are always non-personalised and use no advertising ID, so no ad consent message is needed. Notifications, sound and vibration can also be turned off in Settings.

Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in Europe, the CCPA in California or the DPDP Act in India), you can ask what personal data we hold about you, have it corrected or deleted, object to or limit how it’s used, and withdraw your consent. We hold no data that identifies you: there are no accounts, your progress stays on your device, and statistics are linked only to a random ID. You can delete everything yourself with Reset Progress or by uninstalling. We never sell personal information, and it’s never used for targeted advertising. To make a request or ask a question, write to choudharyvivek195@gmail.com and we’ll reply within 30 days. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.

Children

The game is suitable for all ages. It never asks for personal information such as a name or email. Statistics are linked only to a random ID, and ads are child-directed, non-personalised and rated for all ages.
