Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Duduu Friends ("we", "us") handles information when you play KumaTata: Bear Puzzle Game (the "Game") on Android.
The Game is a logic puzzle: you place one bear in every row, column and color region. It has numbered levels, a daily puzzle and optional reminders.
Who we are
The Game is published by Duduu Friends.
For privacy questions or requests, contact us at duduufriends@gmail.com.
No account
You do not need an account to play. The Game has no sign-in.
We do not ask for your name, email address, phone number, photos, contacts or location.
We do not run our own server for the Game, so we do not receive your game data.
Your progress stays on your device
Your progress is saved only on your device. This includes finished levels, daily puzzle results and streaks, hints, and your settings such as sound, music, vibration and reminders.
This data is not uploaded to us and is not synced to other devices. It stays until you clear the Game's storage or uninstall the Game, which also deletes it.
Advertising
The Game shows ads through Google AdMob. Ads appear as a banner, as an occasional full-screen ad after some solved levels, and as optional ads you can choose to watch for an extra hint or heart.
To deliver and measure ads and to prevent fraud, Google may process information such as your device's advertising ID, IP address, general location based on your network, device and app information, and how you interact with ads.
You can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of personalized ads, in your Android settings. Google's own policies describe how Google uses this data: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads
Consent and privacy choices
Where the law requires it, for example in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, the Game uses Google's User Messaging Platform to ask for your consent before ads use your data.
You can review or change that choice at any time from Settings, then Privacy options, in the Game.
If you do not consent, you may still see ads, but they will be less personalized.
Daily reminders
The Game can show one local notification a day when a new daily puzzle is ready. Reminders are off until you say yes, and you can turn them off in the Game's Settings or in your phone's notification settings.
Reminders are scheduled on your device. They are not sent from a server and do not include any personal data.
Permissions
Internet access is used only to load and measure ads and to show consent choices.
The notification permission is requested only if you turn on daily reminders.
The advertising ID permission lets AdMob use your device's advertising ID, as described above.
Vibration is used for short taps of feedback while you play, and you can turn it off in Settings.
Children
The Game is not directed at children under 13, or the minimum age required in your country. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us at duduufriends@gmail.com and we will help.
Keeping and deleting data
We do not hold any of your game data, so there is nothing for us to delete on our side.
To delete your progress, clear the Game's storage in your Android settings or uninstall the Game.
Advertising data processed by Google is kept according to Google's own retention practices.
Changes to this policy
If the Game or our practices change, we will update this page and the Last updated date at the top.
