Privacy Policy

Clay Works (Android package com.franqq.clayworks) · Published by Dreamscape Studio · Last updated June 28, 2026

1. Who we are

Clay Works is developed by Dreamscape Studio (“we”, “us”, “our”). This policy describes how we handle information when you use our Android app. If you have questions, contact us at privacy@dreamscapestudio.fun.

2. Information we do not collect

• No name, email address, phone number, or postal address.
• No account creation, login, or social-network connection.
• No precise (GPS) location.
• No photos, contacts, microphone, or camera access.
• No payments — the app is free with ads.

3. Information stored only on your device

The following is saved locally using Android’s standard app-storage APIs and is never transmitted to us:

• Game progress, high scores, gold balance, and daily-challenge state.
• Sound, music, and other in-game preferences.

Uninstalling the app permanently deletes all of this data.

4. Information collected by Google Mobile Ads (AdMob)

We use Google AdMob to show ads. To request and measure ads, the Google Mobile Ads SDK collects and sends to Google:

• Your device’s Advertising ID (AAID), or a non-resettable identifier if you have limited ad tracking.
• IP address (used by Google to estimate coarse, city-level location).
• Device information: model, OS version, language, time zone, and screen size.
• Interaction with ads (impressions, clicks, basic performance metrics).
• Diagnostic data needed for fraud prevention and to keep ads working.

Google acts as an independent data controller for the information it receives through AdMob. Their handling of this data is governed by the Google Privacy Policy and the How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services notice.

5. Consent for personalised ads (EU / UK / Switzerland)

When the app is opened in regions that require consent (EU, UK, Switzerland, and similar), we use Google’s User Messaging Platform (UMP) to ask whether you agree to personalised ads. If you decline, AdMob will show non-personalised ads instead, which still require a limited subset of the data listed above (mainly approximate location from IP, and contextual signals).

You can change your choice at any time from the app’s settings screen.

6. Information collected by Google Play

When the app is downloaded, installed, or crashes, Google Play independently collects standard delivery and stability data (such as install counts and crash stack traces). This is handled by Google under their privacy policy; we only see aggregated, anonymised reports in our Play Console.

7. How we use information

• To run the game and save your progress on your device.
• To request and display ads through AdMob, including limiting how often you see the same ad and preventing fraud.
• To diagnose crashes and improve stability, using the aggregated reports provided by Google Play.

We do not sell or rent personal information.

8. Sharing

The only third party we share data with is Google, specifically:

• Google AdMob — to serve ads, as described in §4.
• Google Play — to distribute the app and report crashes.

We do not share data with advertising networks other than AdMob, and we do not use SDKs from Facebook, ironSource, AppLovin, Unity Ads, or similar third-party services.

9. Children

Clay Works is a general-audience puzzle game and is not directed to children under 13 (or under the equivalent age of digital consent in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact privacy@dreamscapestudio.fun and we will delete it.

10. Your choices and rights

• Reset or delete your Advertising ID: Android Settings → Privacy → Ads.
• Opt out of personalised ads: change your consent choice in the app’s settings, or in Android Settings → Privacy → Ads.
• Delete all on-device data: uninstall the app, or clear its storage from Android Settings → Apps → Clay Works.
• GDPR / UK GDPR rights (access, rectification, erasure, objection, portability): email us at privacy@dreamscapestudio.fun. Because we don’t link any of the data we receive to your real identity, we may not be able to identify you in our records; in those cases we will help you exercise your rights directly with Google.
• CCPA / CPRA rights (right to know, delete, opt out of sharing for cross-context behavioural advertising): same address.

11. Data retention

• On-device data: kept until you delete it or uninstall the app.
• AdMob data: retained by Google per their published retention policies.
• Email correspondence with us: kept for up to 24 months, then deleted.

12. Security

Game data on your device is protected by Android’s app-sandbox model. Network traffic between the app and Google’s servers (ads, consent, install reporting) uses HTTPS/TLS by default. No method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

13. International transfers

Google may process AdMob and Play data in the United States and in other countries where Google maintains infrastructure. Where required, Google relies on transfer mechanisms such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework.

14. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date above and, for material changes, surface a notice inside the app on the next launch. Continued use of the app after a change means you accept the updated policy.
