Sortbound Privacy Policy.

Who is responsible

Saad Digital is responsible for the information handling described here. This policy applies to Sortbound (com.saaddigital.sortbound), not to Mivaro, SplitMate AI or unrelated services. Contact saaddigitalapps@gmail.com with “Sortbound privacy” in the subject.

The current experience

The current standard version supports local guest play. It does not create an online account, upload gameplay through cloud saving, process purchases or show production advertising. Apple/Google sign-in, cloud saving and an online wallet are not currently active. These services will require updated disclosures and applicable privacy choices before they are offered.

Progress and preferences on your device

Sortbound saves completed levels, game-session information, earned coins, boosters, daily rewards, settings, notification preferences, legal choices and limited offer history on your device. It may retain local recovery copies and pending transaction information to help protect progress from interruptions.

Browser play uses browser storage, including IndexedDB; the phone app uses app-managed local storage. This information supports gameplay, remembers your choices and helps recover interrupted saves. Local guest progress is not a cloud backup. Clearing storage, removing the app or losing your device may remove it. Exported files are separate copies in the location you choose.

Device information and diagnostics

The game uses device and platform information needed for compatible operation, such as the operating system and supported features. Technical status and error information may be available locally for troubleshooting. No app analytics or remote crash-reporting service is currently configured.

Your operating system, app store and other platform providers may process diagnostics or connection information under their own settings and policies. Visiting a website also discloses ordinary connection information to its host. This policy does not describe those independent providers as collecting no data.

Optional reminders and permissions

On supported phones, local reminders are optional. Notification permission is requested after you choose to enable them. You can change your choice in the game or operating-system settings. The current game schedules local reminders and does not register a remote push-notification token.

Gameplay does not require microphone, contacts, precise-location or photo-library access. Exporting or sharing a file uses the device's normal controls. Declining an optional permission does not prevent local guest play.

Accounts and cloud features

Online account creation and cloud saving are not currently available. Local guest play does not create an online account that can later be recovered by signing in.

If introduced, Apple or Google sign-in may provide an identity token and permitted profile details, such as an identifier, email address or display name, to an authentication service operated using Supabase. Account-linked progress, balances and recovery checkpoints would be processed for cloud features. We will update this policy for the actual services, providers and deletion arrangements before activation. Signing out would not be the same as deleting an account.

Rewarded advertising and privacy choices

Production advertising is not active in the current standard version. It does not request production ads or collect advertising data through that disabled feature. The intended model is optional rewarded video, rather than banners, interstitials, app-open or forced advertisements.

If rewarded advertising is introduced, Google AdMob and its consent services may process IP address and approximate location derived from it, available device identifiers, device/app/operating-system information, consent choices, ad interactions and diagnostic data. Non-personalized advertising can still process personal information. Applicable choices and audience protections must be provided before ads are requested. Any reward verification would use only the records needed to confirm a legitimate reward and prevent duplicates.

Agreeing to the Terms of Service or acknowledging this Privacy Policy is not consent to advertising or tracking. Where applicable, advertising choices will be available separately through Privacy choices.

Purchases and virtual items

Checkout is not currently available. If purchases are enabled, Apple App Store or Google Play will process payment, and RevenueCat may verify transactions and entitlements. Saad Digital does not directly collect your payment-card details in Sortbound.

Purchase verification may require account/billing identifiers, product and transaction identifiers, quantities, delivery records, refunds and recovery information. Those records support delivery, protect balances and prevent duplicate grants. Store and payment providers apply their own privacy policies.

Support communications

If you email support, we receive your email address, message and attachments you choose to send. We use them to respond, troubleshoot and, where necessary, handle security or legal matters. Include the game version, device, operating system and a short description of the issue. Do not send passwords, sign-in tokens, payment-card details or raw purchase receipts.

Recipients and international processing

Current local gameplay is not uploaded through the inactive cloud, billing or advertising services. Email providers handle messages you send to support, and website hosts process connection information when you follow a web link.

If optional services launch, relevant providers may include Supabase for accounts/cloud services, Apple and Google for sign-in and store transactions, RevenueCat for purchase verification, and Google AdMob for advertising and privacy choices. Their actual processing will be reviewed and disclosed before activation. Providers may process information outside your country; applicable legal protections must apply to those transfers. Information may also be disclosed where required by law or reasonably needed to protect rights, security or legal claims.

Information is used for requested gameplay, support, service integrity and legal duties. Any optional processing requires the choices and lawful grounds applicable to that service and your location.

Retention and deleting local information

Local saves, recovery copies and preferences remain until removed through the available Manage my data controls, by you or by the operating system. Protect exported files and remove separate copies you no longer need. Clearing local information does not delete support emails, store records or any future cloud account.

Support correspondence is retained as reasonably needed to answer enquiries, resolve disputes and meet legal or record-keeping requirements, then removed when no longer needed. Contact us about access or deletion. Online account creation is inactive, so no online account-deletion form is offered here. Before accounts are introduced, operational in-app and external deletion-request options, identity verification and an appropriate retention explanation must be available. We do not promise an automatic deletion deadline that is not implemented.

Children and audience

Sortbound's public audience and store age-rating decisions are not yet final. This page does not claim approval for a particular age group or country. Production advertising, accounts and purchases are not currently active. Any future services must meet applicable age, consent and child-protection requirements before activation.

If you believe a child has supplied personal information to support, contact us so we can assess the request and take appropriate action under applicable law.

Your choices and rights

Depending on applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion or a portable copy of your personal information, object to or restrict processing, or withdraw consent where consent is the basis for processing. Withdrawal does not invalidate earlier lawful processing. We may need reasonable identity verification and may retain information required by law.

Email saaddigitalapps@gmail.com and identify Sortbound. You may also contact your local privacy authority. In South Africa, the Information Regulator provides complaint information.

Security and changes

We take reasonable steps to protect information we handle, but no device, email system or online service is completely secure. Keep your device protected and avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information to support.

We will update this policy when practices change, including before activating optional online services. The date above identifies this edition. Revisit Privacy & support in the game or this page to review the current information. For help, visit Sortbound Support.
