Botanyx: Star Battle Puzzles
Effective as of 2026-08-20
This privacy policy applies to the Botanyx: Star Battle Puzzles app (hereby referred to as the "Application") for mobile devices, created by Melodeon (hereby referred to as the "Service Provider") as a free service. The Application is a logic puzzle game in which one plant is placed in every row, column and coloured garden bed. It is provided for use "AS IS".
The Application is designed to run offline: puzzles are generated on your device and your collection and progress are stored there. It does, however, use integrated third-party services for advertising, analytics and stability reporting, which collect certain information.
Through those third-party SDKs, information including your Android Advertising ID, device identifiers and general device and app information (such as device model, operating system version and app version) may be collected.
The Application uses Firebase Analytics to collect aggregated usage and event data (such as sessions started, puzzles completed or ads shown), Firebase Crashlytics to receive crash and error reports, Firebase Performance Monitoring to measure app responsiveness, and Firebase Remote Config to adjust settings without an app update. This data is processed by Google and is not used by the Service Provider to identify you personally.
Advertising is served through Google AdMob, which uses Unity Ads as a mediation partner. Both may collect device and advertising identifiers in order to select and measure ads.
The Application does not use Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies to process your data or provide features.
The Application offers optional in-app purchases (hint and skip packs, and the Botanist's Kit) processed through Google Play Billing. Payment details are handled entirely by Google Play; the Service Provider never receives or stores your payment information. The collection of plants is always earned by playing and is never gated behind a purchase.
The Application can send an optional daily reminder so you do not lose your solving streak. It is off unless you enable it, is scheduled locally on your device, and can be turned off at any time in the Application's settings or in your device's notification settings.
The Application uses the third-party services listed below, which may collect information used to identify you. Links to their privacy policies:
The Service Provider shares data with third parties only through the official SDKs listed above, which are used to deliver advertisements, measure app usage, report crashes and process optional purchases. No other tracking tools or data-sharing arrangements are implemented, and the Service Provider does not sell your data.
Where required by law — in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland — the Application shows a consent message on first launch using Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) before any personalized advertising data is collected. You choose there whether advertising partners may use your data for personalized ads.
You can reopen that choice at any time from the Application's settings screen, where a privacy options entry is shown to users in the regions the consent form applies to. Outside those regions the entry is hidden because no consent form applies.
You can stop all use of the Application at any time by uninstalling it, using the standard uninstall process available on your device or through the app marketplace. Uninstalling removes all locally stored data described above.
You can limit ad personalization or reset your advertising identifier at any time from your device settings (Settings → Google → Ads), independently of the in-app consent choice above.
The Service Provider does not operate its own servers and does not collect, store or transmit your data to any infrastructure under its own control. Your game progress, collection and settings remain on your device and are deleted when you uninstall the Application.
Information processed by the third-party services listed above is retained and deleted according to their own privacy policies. Google's data controls, including deletion of advertising and analytics data associated with your identifiers, are available through your Google account settings.
The Application is a logic puzzle game suitable for a general audience. Because it displays advertising, its target audience is set to users aged 13 and older. The Service Provider does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us and it will be promptly addressed.
The Service Provider holds no personal data on its own infrastructure, so there is no such data at risk there. Locally stored progress remains under your own device's security controls. Data handled by the third-party services above is protected under their respective security practices.
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. The Service Provider will notify users of any changes by updating this page, and the effective date at the top will change accordingly. Continued use of the Application after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
By using the Application, you consent to this Privacy Policy as amended from time to time.
If you have any questions or suggestions about this Privacy Policy, or wish to make a request regarding your data, contact the developer directly through the official Google Play Store developer contact page for Melodeon.
