App Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to Solitaire Classic: Large Cards, published by Loving Art and Company LLC for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices.
Information Stored on Your Device
The app stores game progress, statistics, preferences, accessibility settings, daily challenge status, and purchase-unlock status locally on your device so the game can restore your board and remember your settings.
Information We Do Not Collect
- We do not require an account to play. The leaderboard account is optional.
- We do not collect your email address, contacts, photos, precise location, or messages through the app.
- We do not collect your name unless you choose to sign in for the leaderboard, as described below.
- We do not use analytics or usage-tracking SDKs in the app. The iPhone and iPad app does use a crash-reporting service, described below.
- We do not sell personal information.
Optional Leaderboard Account
In the iPhone and iPad app, you can sign in with Apple to share your completed hands on the global leaderboard. Signing in is optional. The game plays the same without it.
When you sign in, we receive an identifier that Apple creates for our app, and the name you let Apple share. We ask Apple only for your name. We do not ask for your email address and we do not store it.
We store that identifier, your display name, and each score you share: the game mode, your number of moves, your time, and the date. Your display name and scores are visible to all players on the public leaderboard. We use this information only to run the leaderboard.
You can delete your leaderboard account in the app at any time. Open Settings, go to Global Scores, and choose Delete Leaderboard Account. We then delete your name, your Apple identifier, your sign-in sessions, and every score you shared. This does not delete games saved on your device.
Crash and Performance Reports
The iPhone and iPad app sends crash reports, app-freeze reports, and performance timings to Sentry, our crash-reporting service. We use them to find and fix problems.
These reports include your device model, operating system version, app version, an anonymous installation identifier, and technical details about what went wrong. We do not attach your name or leaderboard account to them. We do not use them for advertising or tracking.
Advertising
The app shows ads supplied by Google AdMob: a banner during play, and optional rewarded ads you choose to watch. Ads do not appear during your first session, and do not appear until you have acknowledged our safe-ads notice. Buying the ad-free unlock removes them permanently.
To serve and measure those ads, Google may receive your device's advertising identifier, IP address, general device information, and how you interacted with an ad. On iPhone and iPad the app asks your permission through Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt before that identifier is used for tracking; if you decline, ads still appear but are not personalised using it. The app also declares Apple's SKAdNetwork so Google can measure ad installs without identifying you.
Google's handling of that data is governed by its own policy: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
Safe Ads
We restrict ad categories to exclude gambling and other content we consider unsuitable for this audience, and the app includes a one-tap way to report an ad you believe should not have appeared.
Purchases
Optional in-app purchases are processed by Apple or Google, depending on where you installed the app. Loving Art and Company LLC does not receive or store your full payment card details.
Data Sharing
We do not sell your information. We do not share your gameplay data with third parties, with two exceptions: your leaderboard name and scores are visible to other players if you choose to sign in, and Sentry receives the crash and performance reports described above as our service provider. Apple and Google may process purchase, download, crash, and device information under their own policies and your account settings. Google AdMob receives the advertising data described above.
Children
Solitaire Classic: Large Cards is a general-audience card game. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the app. Because the app serves ads, we do not present it as a child-directed app in either store.
Data Retention and Deletion
Local game data remains on your device until you clear app storage or uninstall the app. You do not need an account to play, so most players have no remote account for us to delete.
If you signed in for the leaderboard, you can delete that account in the app, as described above. You can also email us at the address below and ask us to delete it. Crash and performance reports are kept for a limited time and are not linked to your account.
Changes
We may update this policy when the app changes. The effective date above will be updated when we make material changes.
