TerraforMatch
Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 13, 2026
The short version: TerraforMatch doesn't have a server, doesn't require an account, and doesn't collect, store, or transmit any personal information. Your progress is saved only on your own device. The one exception is Google Play Games achievements on Android, which is optional and governed by Google's own privacy policy — see below.
Who this policy covers
This policy applies to TerraforMatch, a match-3 puzzle game published by jceddy and available for Android and iOS (the "Game"). It explains what information, if any, the Game collects and how it's used.
Information we collect
We — the developer of TerraforMatch — do not operate any server or backend for the Game, and we do not collect, receive, or have access to any information about you or your device. Specifically, the Game does not:
- require you to create an account, sign in, or provide any personal information to play
- collect analytics, usage statistics, or crash reports
- contain advertising or ad-tracking SDKs
- sell, rent, or share any data with third parties, because it doesn't collect any to begin with
- use cookies or similar tracking technology (it isn't a website with accounts to track)
Data stored on your device
Your progress — discovered planets, resources, unlocked technologies, achievements, and audio preferences — is saved using your device or browser's local storage, entirely on your own device. This data:
- never leaves your device or gets transmitted anywhere by the Game
- is not accessible to us or to any third party
- persists until you uninstall the Game or clear its data through your device's settings, at which point it's permanently deleted
Because we never receive this data, we have no way to view, export, or delete it on your behalf — clearing it is done entirely through your own device (uninstalling the app, or clearing site data if you're playing a web build).
Google Play Games Services (Android only)
On Android, unlocking an in-game achievement also attempts to sync it to your Google Play Games profile, if you're signed in with a Google account on your device. This is entirely optional:
- the Game is fully playable, and every achievement still unlocks and is tracked locally, whether or not you're signed in to Google Play Games
- we don't receive, see, or store anything about your Google account — the sync happens directly between your device and Google
- this integration is governed by Google's Privacy Policy and, if applicable, the Google Play Games Services terms
- you can review or revoke the Game's access to your Google account at any time in your Google Account settings
Children's privacy
TerraforMatch is a general-audience game and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children, because — as described above — the Game does not collect personal information from any user at all.
Changes to this policy
If this policy ever changes — for example, if a future update adds a feature that does collect data — we'll update this page and revise the "Last updated" date above.
