Privacy policy

Last updated: October 9, 2026

This policy explains what information Pebble Stone Games ("we", "us") and our games, including Cave Sweeper, collect, how it is used and the choices you have. It applies to our mobile games and to this website.

The short version

• We don't ask for your name, email address, location or contacts, and you don't need an account to play.
• Your game progress is stored only on your device.
• Our free games show ads through Google AdMob. Google may collect device information, such as your advertising ID, to show and measure ads. Where the law requires it, we ask for your consent first.
• Purchases are processed by Google Play or the Apple App Store. We never see your payment details.

Information stored on your device

Cave Sweeper saves your progress, currencies, settings and purchase records in the game's private storage on your device. The game also keeps a local log of gameplay events, such as levels started and completed, to help balance difficulty. This information is not sent to us. It is deleted if you uninstall the game or clear its data.

Advertising

Cave Sweeper uses Google AdMob to show optional rewarded ads and occasional ads between levels. To serve, limit and measure ads and to prevent fraud, Google may collect and process:

• your device's advertising identifier (Android Advertising ID or Apple IDFA, where permitted)
• your IP address, from which an approximate location can be worked out
• device and app information, such as model, operating system, language and app version
• how you interact with ads, such as views and taps

Ads are limited to content rated suitable for general audiences. If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, the game asks for your consent before showing personalized ads, using Google's User Messaging Platform. You can change your choice at any time from Settings → Privacy Options in the game.

You can also reset your advertising ID or opt out of personalized ads in your device settings. On iOS, the game will not track you across other companies' apps and websites unless you allow it.

To learn how Google uses this data, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.

In-app purchases

Purchases are processed entirely by Google Play or the Apple App Store under their own privacy policies. We receive only what we need to deliver your purchase, such as the product bought and a purchase token. We never receive your name, email address or payment details.

Third-party services

This website

This website doesn't use cookies, analytics or trackers. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which receives your IP address when your browser requests them. Our hosting provider may keep standard server logs, such as IP addresses and the pages you request, for security and reliability.

Emailing us

If you email us, we use your email address and anything you include only to reply to you. We don't add you to mailing lists or share your messages.

Children

Our games are designed for a general audience and are not directed at children under 13. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children. If you think a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or object to the processing of your personal information. Because we don't keep personal data on our own servers, most game data can be deleted by uninstalling the game. For advertising data, use the in-game Privacy Options or your device settings, or contact Google directly. For anything else, email us.

Changes to this policy

We will update this page if our games or practices change and revise the date at the top.
