TOWER//SHIFT Privacy Policy
TOWER//SHIFT is a tower-stacking game. You can play without an account, and we do not ask for your real name, email address, contacts, photos or location.
What stays on your device
Your game progress (levels, coins, upgrades, unlocked items and settings) is saved on your device only. Uninstalling the game or clearing its data deletes it. Android may include it in your own device backup if you have backups turned on.
If you turn on Motion Sway, the game reads your phone's motion sensor so the tower can sway as you move. These readings are used only on your device, in the moment, and are never stored or sent anywhere.
What we receive
If online tournaments or leaderboards are available in your version of the game and you take part, the game sends our server:
- a random player ID created on your device (it is not linked to your identity)
- the player name you choose (by default a random "Builder" name)
- the avatar and country flag you choose
- your scores, blocks built and best combo
These are shown publicly on the leaderboards. We use them only to run tournaments and leaderboards, and we do not sell them. Our server, like any web server, briefly processes your IP address to deliver the connection.
Purchases
In-app purchases are handled by Google Play. We never see your card or bank details. Google tells the game which item you bought so we can give it to you. Google's handling of your payment is covered by the Google Privacy Policy.
Advertising
The free version shows ads from Google AdMob. To show and measure ads, AdMob may collect your device's advertising ID, IP address, device and app information, and how you interact with ads. In the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland the game asks for your consent before personalised ads are shown, and you can change your choice at any time from the game's settings. You can also reset or delete your advertising ID in your Android settings. Buying "Ad Blocker VIP Pass" removes ads. See how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
Children
TOWER//SHIFT is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
Your choices and deleting your data
You can change your player name at any time in the game. To remove your scores and player name from our leaderboards, email us with your player name and we will delete them within 30 days.
