Kodus (the "app") is a sudoku game published by Antoine Gayoso, the data controller. Contact: kodusapp@gmail.com. This policy explains what data the app uses and how.
Kodus works without an account. The following information is stored locally, on your device (it is not sent to our servers, except for the online leaderboard described in section 2):
This local data stays on your device until you uninstall the app or clear its data.
The leaderboard and duel mode are optional: they only work if you connect your Google Play Games account from the Profile screen. Until you do, none of this data is transmitted, and the rest of the game works exactly the same.
Once connected, the app transmits and publicly displays the following:
This data is hosted by Supabase, within the European Union, on our behalf and for no other purpose. Since your nickname, profile picture and scores are public, do not put any personal information in them.
If you enable cloud save, your progress is also copied to your own Google Play Games storage. It belongs to you and can be deleted from the Google Play Games app.
Unlike local data, this data is not erased when you uninstall the app. To delete it, see the data deletion page.
Kodus shows optional, reward-based ads that are triggered only by you (for example, to earn a life or a token). They are provided by Google AdMob.
To serve these ads, Google may process certain data from your device, including: your advertising identifier, IP address, in-app interactions and technical (diagnostic) data. Google acts as an independent third party; its processing is governed by the Google Privacy Policy and "How Google uses data".
We do not use any other analytics or tracking service.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, a consent screen appears at first launch. You can refuse personalised ads without limiting access to the game.
You can change or withdraw your choice at any time through the "Privacy options" entry in the app settings.
Local data is kept until you uninstall the app or manually clear its data from your phone settings. Leaderboard data is kept on the server until you request its deletion. For data processed by Google, please refer to Google's policy.
Kodus is not intended for and is not specifically directed at children under 13.
Under the GDPR you have rights of access, rectification, erasure and objection. For game data that stays on your device, you exercise these rights directly by clearing the app's data or uninstalling it. For online leaderboard data (server), deletion is available on request at kodusapp@gmail.com. For data processed by Google, contact Google or use your device's advertising settings (reset your advertising identifier).
California residents (CCPA/CPRA): we do not sell your data. Sharing data with Google for advertising purposes may qualify as "sharing" under California law; you can limit it by declining ad consent and resetting your advertising identifier.
This policy may be updated. Any change will be published on this page with a new "last updated" date.
