Fuse: Firework Puzzle: Privacy Policy
In short: Fuse has no accounts and we don't collect your personal data. Your progress is saved on your phone and, if you use iCloud or Google Play Games, also in your own Apple or Google account so you can continue on a new phone. We never receive it. Optional rewarded ads come from Google AdMob, and the optional Supporter Pack is sold through the App Store or Google Play. For players under 13, ads are child-directed and not personalised, and purchases need a grown-up.
Your saved game
Your level progress, stars, settings, unlocked cosmetics, the Hints and Scouts you've earned, and the birth year you enter on first launch are saved on your device. We never receive them.
- iPhone and iPad: if you're signed in to iCloud, the same saved game is also kept in your iCloud account (Apple's iCloud key-value storage), so a new device with your Apple Account continues where you left off. Only Fuse on your devices can read it; we can't. If Fuse is listed under Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Manage Account Storage, you can delete it there.
- Android (players 13 and older): if you're signed in to Google Play Games, the saved game is also kept in your Play Games account (Saved Games), and Google shows your Play Games profile name to the game. Google handles this data under the Google Privacy Policy; we can't access it. You can delete it in your Play Games profile. Players under 13 don't use Play Games in Fuse; their progress stays on the device.
Deleting the app deletes the copy on your device.
Why we ask for your birth year
Fuse is for all ages. On first launch it asks for your birth year, only on the device, to choose how ads behave and whether a grown-up check appears before a purchase. It is never sent to us.
Ads (Google AdMob)
Fuse shows only rewarded ads, and only when you choose to watch one (for example to get an extra Hint). Ads are provided by Google AdMob.
- Players under 13 (and anyone who hasn't entered a birth year): ads are requested as child-directed, rated for general audiences (G) and not personalised.
- Players 13 and older: Google may use device information such as the advertising identifier, IP address and ad interactions to show, measure and, where you allow it, personalise ads. In the EU, UK and other regions where the law requires it, Google's consent form asks you first, and you can change your choice later.
Google's use of data is described in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and the Google Privacy Policy.
The Supporter Pack (optional purchase)
The Supporter Pack is a one-time cosmetic purchase. Payment is handled entirely by Apple or Google; we never see your payment details. To confirm and restore the purchase, the app uses RevenueCat, which receives the store receipt and an anonymous app user ID. See the RevenueCat privacy policy.
Children
We don't knowingly collect personal information from children. Players under 13 don't use Google Play Games in Fuse. Ads for players under 13 are child-directed and non-personalised, and a grown-up check appears before any purchase or restore. If you believe a child's information reached us, contact us and we'll delete it.
Your choices
- You never have to watch an ad or buy anything to play every level.
- You can reset your advertising identifier or limit ad tracking in your phone's settings.
- You can delete the saved game by deleting the app, and the cloud copy in your iCloud or Play Games settings.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update this page and its effective date.
