PatchWall Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 2026
PatchWall respects your privacy. This policy describes how your information is handled when you use the app.
Data Collected by the App
PatchWall does not require registration and does not collect personal data such as name, email address, phone number, or precise location. Gameplay progress and settings are stored locally on your device.
PatchWall uses Google Analytics for Firebase to understand app usage and improve gameplay balance. The app may send gameplay analytics events such as level start, level completion, level retry, and level selection, with related parameters such as level name, success state, duration, first-clear state, and attempt count. These events do not include your name, email address, phone number, precise location, or custom user identifier.
Google Analytics for Firebase may process technical information such as app-instance or installation identifiers, device and operating system information, IP address, app interactions, and event data for analytics and measurement purposes.
Crash Reporting
PatchWall uses Firebase Crashlytics to collect crash reports and diagnose stability issues. Crash reports may include stack traces, crash state, app version, device model, operating system version, diagnostic information, IP address, and Firebase installation identifiers. PatchWall does not add custom user IDs or custom Crashlytics events to crash reports.
Advertising
PatchWall uses Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) to serve advertisements. Google Mobile Ads may collect and share the following data for advertising, analytics, ad measurement, and fraud prevention:
- Device identifiers, including the Android Advertising ID, Android app set ID, and, on iOS, the Identifier for Vendor (IDFV)
- IP address
- Device type and operating system version
- App and ad interactions, such as app launches, taps, ad views, and clicks
- Diagnostic information related to app and SDK performance
Note for iOS users: PatchWall does not request tracking permission (App Tracking Transparency). As a result, Apple's Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) is never accessed. Google Mobile Ads may still collect the device's Identifier for Vendor (IDFV) for ad delivery, analytics, and measurement. Ads may be personalized or non-personalized depending on your consent choices, Google settings, platform limitations, and applicable law.
You can opt out of interest-based advertising at any time:
- Android: Settings → Google → Ads → Opt out of Ads Personalization
- iOS: PatchWall does not request App Tracking Transparency permission and does not access IDFA. You can also review Apple privacy and advertising settings in iOS Settings.
For more information about how Google handles data, see Google Privacy Policy and AdMob Data Safety. For Firebase services, see Privacy and Security in Firebase.
User Consent and Privacy Choices
For users in the European Economic Area (EEA), the UK, and Switzerland, PatchWall displays a consent dialog powered by Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP). Depending on your region and choices, the consent dialog may be used for advertising, analytics storage, ad storage, ad user data, and ad personalization signals. If you decline personalized advertising, ads may still be shown, but they should be non-personalized or otherwise limited according to your choices and applicable law.
For users in US states with applicable privacy regulations, PatchWall may display a privacy message that allows you to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information where required.
Children's Privacy
PatchWall is not directed at children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided personal data through the app, we will take steps to delete it. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal data, contact us at the email below.

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
