Crackle Privacy Policy

Effective date: August 31, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how the mobile game Crackle (Android package games.nudgebox.crackle) handles information when you use the app.

Summary: Crackle does not require an account and does not ask you to provide your name, email address, phone number, contacts, photos, messages, financial information, or precise location. The app uses third-party services for advertising, analytics, crash reporting, fraud prevention, configuration, and delivery of game content.

Information collected automatically

Crackle and the third-party services integrated into the app may automatically process the following categories of information:

Approximate location: an IP address may be used to estimate a general location.
App activity: information about app launches, taps, game interactions, ad interactions, and similar usage events.
Crash logs: technical information related to app crashes and errors.
Diagnostics: information about app and SDK performance, such as launch performance, hangs, and technical device/app state.
Device or other identifiers: identifiers such as the Android advertising ID, App Set ID, Firebase installation identifiers, or similar device/app identifiers where applicable.

How information is used

providing and maintaining app functionality;
understanding usage and improving the game;
crash reporting and technical diagnostics;
serving, measuring, and managing advertising, including rewarded and interstitial ads;
fraud prevention, security, and compliance;
delivering and updating remote game content and configuration.

Third-party services

Crackle uses services provided by third parties, including:

Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads SDK for advertising.
Google Firebase Analytics for usage analytics.
Google Firebase Crashlytics for crash reporting and diagnostics.
Google Firebase Remote Config for remotely managed app configuration.
Cloudflare for hosting and delivering remote game content.

These service providers may process information according to their own privacy policies and terms. You can review Google's privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy and Cloudflare's privacy policy at https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/.

Advertising

Crackle contains advertisements. Advertising services may use device identifiers, approximate location, app interactions, and diagnostic information to provide, measure, secure, and improve advertising services. Android users can manage or reset advertising-related settings through their device settings where available.

Accounts and personal information

Crackle does not provide user account creation or login. We do not operate a user account database and do not ask users to submit personal profile information to play the game.

Local game data

Game progress, collection state, settings, and cached remote content may be stored locally on your device. You can remove local app data by clearing Crackle's storage in Android settings or by uninstalling the app.

Security

Network communications used by the integrated services are transmitted using encrypted connections such as HTTPS/TLS where supported. No method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Data retention and deletion

Crackle does not maintain user accounts or a developer-operated personal profile database. Local game data remains on the device until it is cleared or the app is uninstalled. Information processed by third-party services is retained and deleted according to those providers' applicable policies and settings.

Children's privacy

Crackle is intended for users aged 13 and older and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly ask children under 13 to provide personal information directly to us.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when the app, its services, or legal requirements change. The effective date at the top of this page will be updated when changes are made.
