Tile Connect: Classic Match — Last updated: October 7, 2026
1. Overview
Tile Connect: Classic Match ("the App") is a free Android app developed by 강건한건강 ("we", "us") for playing the classic offline tile-matching puzzle. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use the App.
2. Information We Collect
Theme, difficulty, best times, advertising-limit state and your language preference are stored on your device. The current puzzle is held temporarily in memory. The App has no user accounts. Google Mobile Ads SDK and Firebase Analytics process device and usage information; optional Tally feedback is described below. We do not send puzzle contents, moves or records as analytics events or attach them to feedback links.
3. Third-Party Services
The App uses the following third-party services:
- Google Mobile Ads SDK — for displaying advertisements. A banner may appear below the board, and an app-open ad may appear on an eligible launch. Full-screen ads use a three-minute cooldown. Interstitials do not interrupt play: the first three completed games have no interstitials, and later interstitials appear at most once per two clears, subject to the cooldown. The SDK may collect device or advertising identifiers, IP address (from which approximate location may be inferred), app interactions, diagnostics and usage data to serve and measure ads. Google may process and share this information with its advertising service providers. We do not supply puzzle contents, moves or records in ad requests. For more information, see the Google Privacy Policy.
- Firebase Analytics — records automatic app usage events, app/device details, identifiers, diagnostics and approximate location derived from IP addresses for product analytics. Google processes this information under its service policies. Puzzle contents, moves and records are not added to analytics events. See Firebase privacy information.
- Tally — optional feedback records the selected feedback type, your message and an optional reply email. The form can receive nine optional diagnostic fields: app identifier (
app), app name (app_name), version (version), build number (build), platform (platform), device model (device), operating system version (os), selected language (locale) and entry point (source). Puzzle contents, moves and records are not attached. Information you type into the form is submitted by your own choice. Tally also processes technical request information, such as IP address and browser details, to operate the form. See the Tally Privacy Policy.
Where required, Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) shows a consent form before ads are requested. Required choices can be reopened through Settings → Privacy choices, or from About when available. Advertising follows the available consent choices. Refusing personalized advertising does not mean the SDK sends no technical information.
Google and Tally services use encrypted connections for data in transit. Data collected by these services is processed under their respective privacy policies. Gameplay works offline; advertising, analytics and an external feedback form use network connections.
4. Permissions
The App uses internet and network-state access for ads, analytics and opening optional feedback. The advertising SDK also uses the Android advertising identifier permission. The App does not use or request access to your location, contacts, camera, microphone, or files. Approximate location inferred from an IP address does not require access to your phone's location sensors.
5. Data Storage
The App does not create user accounts and does not sync game records to our servers. Your game records stay on your device. Clearing app storage or uninstalling removes your local data and cached advertising SDK data stored with the app. There is no app account to delete. Android backup is left enabled for this App, so a copy of that data may also exist in your Google account. Uninstalling does not delete that copy, and installing the App again can restore it. You can review or delete it in the backup settings of your Google account.
Feedback retention and deletion
Feedback is used to investigate problems, improve the app and reply when an email is supplied. It is retained for up to 24 months unless a legal obligation requires longer retention. Do not include sensitive information. To request deletion, use the feedback form with “Tile Connect feedback deletion”, the approximate submission date or reference and enough information to identify your earlier submission. We delete matching feedback and reply contact details within 30 days after verifying the request, except records required by law. Uninstalling does not delete feedback already submitted to Tally. Google advertising and analytics data is managed under Google's policies and Android privacy controls.
6. Children's Privacy
The App is suitable for general audiences and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
8. Contact Us
For privacy questions or feedback deletion requests, use the feedback form. A reply email is optional; include one if you want a response. Please avoid sensitive information.
