1. Data controller

For users in the European Economic Area and other regions with similar privacy laws, Chewing Alpacas Games is the data controller for personal data we process for our own purposes. Our contact email is ChewingAlpacasGames@protonmail.com .

2. Information we process

Vibe Puzzle: Photo Solitaire does not currently require you to create an account. Depending on your device, platform settings, consent choices, and how you use the Game, the following information may be processed:

Information stored on your device

• Game progress, selected levels, settings, and preferences.
• Whether you have accepted the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.

• Purchase status and transaction confirmation data may be processed through the app store or payment provider to verify purchases.

Support communications

• If you contact us, we may process your email address and the content of your message so we can respond.

3. How we use information

We use information for the following purposes:

• to operate the Game and remember your progress and settings;
• to show, measure, and improve gameplay features;
• to provide advertising and measure ad performance;
• to verify purchases, including remove-ads purchases;
• to detect, diagnose, and fix crashes, bugs, and technical issues;
• to respond to support requests;
• to comply with legal, security, and platform requirements.

5. Legal bases for users in the EEA

Where the General Data Protection Regulation or similar law applies, we rely on the following legal bases:

• Contract: to provide the Game and features you request.
• Legitimate interests: to maintain, secure, debug, and improve the Game.
• Consent: where required for personalized advertising, analytics, or similar processing.
• Legal obligation: to comply with applicable laws, store rules, tax, accounting, and security requirements.

6. Sharing of information

We may share information with service providers and platform partners only as needed for the purposes described in this Policy. This includes Google services used for ads, analytics, crash reporting, hosting, app distribution, and purchases. We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect rights and safety, or in connection with a business transfer such as a merger or sale of assets.

7. Advertising choices

The Game may show ads. Depending on your region and platform settings, you may be offered choices about personalized ads. You can also reset or delete your advertising identifier through your device settings where available. If you purchase a remove-ads offer, third-party ad placements should no longer be shown in the Game after the purchase is recognized, but analytics, diagnostics, purchase verification, and legally required processing may still continue.

8. Retention and deletion

Locally stored game progress and settings usually remain on your device until you uninstall the Game, clear app data, or reset progress through available game or device options. Support emails are retained only as long as reasonably needed to handle your request and maintain records. Analytics, advertising, purchase, and crash data are retained according to the retention settings and policies of the relevant service providers, unless a longer retention period is required by law.

You may contact us at ChewingAlpacasGames@protonmail.com to request deletion or assistance with privacy questions. Because the Game does not currently use player accounts, some device-local data can only be deleted from your device.

9. International transfers

Our service providers may process information in countries other than your country of residence. Where required, such transfers are protected by appropriate safeguards such as contractual commitments or other mechanisms recognized by applicable law.

10. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to processing, or receive a copy of your personal data. You may also have the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. To exercise these rights, contact us at ChewingAlpacasGames@protonmail.com .

If you are in the EEA and believe your request has not been handled properly, you may contact your local data protection authority or the Romanian data protection authority.

12. Children

The Game is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 or from children below the minimum age required by local law without appropriate consent. If you believe a child has provided personal data to us, please contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

13. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If changes are material, we may provide notice in the Game, on this website, or through another reasonable method. The updated version will show a new effective date.
