1. Introduction
Applendit ("we", "our", or "us") built the Mindy Loops app as a free application. This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information when you use our app.
By using Mindy Loops, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the application.
We are committed to protecting your privacy. Mindy Loops is a meditative puzzle game — we collect only what is necessary to provide ads and improve the app experience.
2. Information We Collect
Mindy Loops may collect the following types of information:
Automatically Collected Data
- Device identifiers (advertising ID, device model, OS version)
- Network connectivity status (Wi-Fi / mobile data)
- App usage data (session length, level progress, interactions)
- Language and locale preferences
- Crash reports and diagnostic data
Analytics & Crash Reporting (Planned)
We plan to integrate Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics in a future update. When enabled, these services may collect anonymised usage statistics and crash diagnostics to help us improve the app. This policy will be updated accordingly before that integration is live.
Data Stored Locally on Your Device
- Game progress and level completion (stored locally via SharedPreferences)
- Sound and haptic preferences
This locally stored data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
3. Advertising
Mindy Loops uses Google AdMob to display advertisements. Google may collect and use data to serve personalised ads based on your interests.
Google AdMob may collect:
- Advertising ID (Google Advertising ID / IDFA)
- IP address and approximate location
- Device information (model, OS version, screen size)
- App interaction data for ad performance measurement
For users in the European Economic Area (EEA) and the United Kingdom, personalised advertising is only served with your explicit consent, in accordance with GDPR. A consent dialogue may be shown upon first launch.
You can opt out of personalised advertising at any time through your device settings: Settings → Google → Ads → Opt out of Ads Personalisation (Android).
For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy and How Google uses data from apps.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information to us, please contact us immediately at applendit@gmail.com and we will take steps to delete such information.
For advertising, Google AdMob is configured to serve non-personalised ads in contexts where users may be under 13, in compliance with COPPA and Google's Families Policy.

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law.
- Local game data: stored on your device until you uninstall the app or clear app data

- Analytics data (when enabled): retained per Firebase's default retention settings
8. Data Security
We value your trust and strive to use commercially acceptable means of protecting any data associated with your use of the app. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Game progress data is stored locally on your device only and is not transmitted to external servers by Applendit.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any significant changes by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
