Privacy Policy

Last updated: 24 August 2026

Advertising

The app shows adverts supplied by Google AdMob. To select and measure those adverts, Google collects:

• device and advertising identifiers;
• approximate, city-level location, derived from your IP address;
• how you interact with the app and with the adverts themselves.

That data is collected by Google, not by us — we never receive it and never store it. Google explains what it does with it in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

Your choices

• In the app: open Settings → Privacy options at any time. That reopens Google's own consent form, where you can change or withdraw your consent for personalised advertising.
• On iOS: the system asks for permission to track before any personalised advert is shown. You can change your answer in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
• On Android: you can reset or delete your advertising ID in Settings → Privacy → Ads.

Withdrawing consent does not remove the adverts. It makes them non-personalised.

Statistics and crash reports

Two more Google services are in the app, both under Firebase, and neither of them identifies you:

• Firebase Analytics — anonymous gameplay statistics. Which level an attempt was on, how many moves it took, whether it was finished or given up on, which power-ups were used, and whether an advert was offered or shown around it. Times are recorded as ranges rather than clock values and coin balances as ranges rather than exact numbers, so the data cannot say when you played or precisely what you had.
• Firebase Crashlytics — automatic crash reports: what failed and the sequence of code that led to it. This is how a bug that only happens on one kind of phone gets found at all.

Neither carries your name, your email, anything you typed, or any identifier that follows you into a different app. They are used to make the game better and for nothing else, and they are not used to target advertising.

The developer still runs no server of their own and holds no file about you. There is currently no switch inside the game to turn these two off; uninstalling the app stops them.

What is stored on your device

Your level progress, stars, coins, power-ups and settings are stored locally. Uninstalling the app deletes them.

On Android, the system's own Auto Backup may copy that save file to your Google account so it returns when you reinstall. That copy belongs to your Google account; the developer cannot see it or retrieve it.

Purchases

Potionary offers one optional purchase, which removes the full-screen adverts between levels. The transaction is handled entirely by Google Play or the App Store. The app never sees your payment details, and none are stored.

Children

Potionary is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them.

Changes

If this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it.
