Slidestone

Slidestone is a puzzle game by Multiplex Arctic. The game has no ads SDK, does not read your advertising ID, Android ID or other device identifiers, GPS or precise location, contacts or account, and never asks for your name or email address.

What the game collects:

• A random player ID and secret, created on first launch so daily scores and leaderboards know which results are yours. It is not linked to your Google account.
• Gameplay events: levels started and cleared, moves, time taken, hints, undos, stars, session length, app version, test group (if any), and how many touches on the board did not move a piece. These are used to tune level difficulty and keep the game working.
• Device and performance details: your phone's model name, graphics chip, Android version, memory size and screen size, the language setting, the country of your mobile network (or SIM, or language setting), how smoothly the game ran and whether the phone reported running hot. No GPS or precise location is read. These show whether problems are tied to certain phones, languages or countries.
• Crash reports: the type of error, the names of the game functions it happened in and a short, hashed signature of it, with no personal data and no error messages.
• How you found the game: if you installed from an ad or a link, the install details the Play Store passes on: the campaign (for example which ad network or ad campaign) and, for Google Ads, the ad click ID Google adds. This tells us which ads bring players who enjoy the game.
• Your nickname, if you choose one. It is shown publicly on the leaderboards.
• Feedback you send from the game, including the text you type.

Early internal test builds also sent a salted hash of the Android ID to recognise the developer's own test phones. Current builds do not.

Why we use it (legal basis): keeping your daily scores, leaderboard entries and nickname is needed to provide those features (performance of a contract). Gameplay events, device and performance details, crash reports, install source and feedback are processed under our legitimate interest in keeping the game working, tuning level difficulty and learning which campaigns bring players. You can object to this at any time (see Your rights).

Data is stored on our own server on Microsoft Azure in the Sweden Central region, so it stays within the EU. Microsoft processes it on our behalf under a data processing agreement, and it is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS). It is not sold and not shared with advertisers or other third parties. Google Play may separately collect crash and install statistics under Google's privacy policy. Data is kept while the game's online service runs, or until you ask for it to be deleted.

Deleting your data: open Settings in the game, tap Player ID to copy it, and email it to privacy@multiplexarctic.com with the subject "Delete my Slidestone data". Everything stored for that player ID is deleted within 30 days and you will get a reply when it is done. Uninstalling the game removes everything stored on the phone.

Slidestone is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from them. If you believe a child has sent us data, email the address above and it will be deleted.

Your rights

Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) you have the right to access the data we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to restrict or object to how we use it, and to receive it in a portable format.

If you think we handle your data wrongly, you can complain to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (Integritetsskyddsmyndigheten, imy.se) or the data protection authority where you live.
