2. The Hexagon Cells app

Data on your device

The app stores your highscore, settings, collected coins, unlocked themes and upgrades, your ad choice, and whether you removed ads only locally on your device. This data is never sent to us. Deleting the app deletes it.

Ads through Unity LevelPlay

The free version is funded by ads: banners, full-screen ads, and reward videos you choose to watch to earn coins. Ads are served by Unity LevelPlay (ironSource, a Unity Technologies company) through the ad networks ironSource Ads and Unity Ads.

To serve, count and bill ads and to prevent fraud, these providers process data such as your IP address, device model, operating system, language setting, in-app identifiers and your interactions with ads. To do so, the ad libraries read information from your device.

With the one-time “Remove ads” in-app purchase, banners and full-screen ads are no longer loaded. You can still choose to watch reward videos afterwards.

More information: Unity privacy policy.

Your consent to personalized ads

When you first start the game, the app asks whether you agree to personalized ads. “Accept” and “Decline” are equal choices. No ads start before you answer.

• If you accept, the ad partners may also use the data listed above to show you ads based on your interests and to measure their performance across apps. The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, Section 25(1) of the German TDDDG).
• On iPhone, iOS then also asks whether the app may track you across other companies' apps and websites (App Tracking Transparency). Your iPhone's advertising ID (IDFA) is only shared if you allow this as well. If you decline in the app, it doesn't ask this question at all.
• If you decline, you still see ads, but they are not tailored to you. The providers then only process the data to serve and bill ads and to prevent fraud. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in offering the game for free (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

You can change your choice at any time in the app under Settings › Privacy, which withdraws a given consent for the future. You change tracking permission for the advertising ID in the iOS Settings under Privacy & Security › Tracking.

The game is not specifically aimed at children. If you are under 16, please only agree to personalized ads with your parents' permission.

In-app purchases

Purchases such as “Remove ads” are handled by Apple through the App Store. We receive no payment details, only confirmation that the purchase went through. The legal basis is the performance of the purchase contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). Apple's privacy policy applies.

Storage period

Data on your device stays until you delete the app. How long Unity, ironSource and Apple keep data is set out in their own privacy policies. We don't receive any personal data from the app ourselves.

Transfers outside the EU

Unity, ironSource and Apple also process data outside the EU, for example in the USA and Israel. Israel is covered by an adequacy decision of the European Commission. According to the providers, transfers to the USA rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.

3. This website

Hosting and server log files

This website is hosted on Firebase Hosting, a service of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”). When you visit it, Google processes technically necessary data: IP address, date and time, the page requested, browser and operating system, and the referring page. This is needed to deliver the website and protect it from abuse (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Google processes this data on our behalf under the Firebase Data Processing and Security Terms.

Firebase Hosting delivers pages through a worldwide network of servers, so data may also be transferred to Google LLC in the USA. Google LLC is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, and the European Commission's standard contractual clauses apply as well. More information: Privacy and security in Firebase.

We don't analyze any log files ourselves. How long Google keeps the technical data is set out in Google's own information.

No cookies, no tracking, no third-party services

This website sets no cookies and uses no analytics or tracking tools. Fonts and graphics are delivered together with the website through Firebase Hosting, not through external services such as Google Fonts, so visiting the site sends no data to any further third parties.

Links to the App Store open Apple's website, where Apple's privacy terms apply.

4. Your rights

You have the right to access, correct and delete your data, to restrict its processing, to data portability, and to object to processing. You can withdraw any consent at any time with effect for the future, directly in the app under Settings › Privacy. For anything else, email baeckerapps(at)gmail.com.

Where we process data based on our legitimate interest, you can object at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation (Art. 21 GDPR).

Because we don't run accounts, we usually can't link data held directly by Unity, ironSource or Apple to you. In that case, please also contact the provider directly.

You can also complain to a data protection supervisory authority, for example the State Commissioner for Data Protection of Lower Saxony.
