Privacy Policy

Tickshift · Last updated September 30, 2026

Tickshift is a single-player logic puzzle game. It has no accounts, no sign-in, and no chat, and we do not ask for your name, email, or any other personal details. Your progress and settings are stored only on your device. Tickshift is free to play and shows ads from Google AdMob; AdMob processes device and advertising data to serve and measure those ads, and on iOS it uses your advertising identifier only if you allow tracking. A one-time Remove Ads purchase turns off the ads. We do not sell your data.

Information We Collect

Information We Do Not Collect

Tickshift does not require or offer an account. We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, contacts, photos, precise location, or health data, and the game has no chat or user-generated content.

Game Progress & Settings (On Your Device)

The game saves which levels you have solved and unlocked, the level you last played, your language, and your music, sound, and haptics preferences. This data is stored only on your device and is never sent to us. It stays until you reset your progress in the game or uninstall the app.

Advertising Data (Google AdMob)

Tickshift shows banner ads and occasional full-screen ads between runs, provided by Google AdMob through the Google Mobile Ads SDK. To deliver, limit, and measure ads and to prevent fraud, the SDK may collect:

This data is processed by Google under its own policies, described at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and in the Google Privacy Policy. We do not receive your advertising identifier or IP address in a form that identifies you; we only see aggregated ad reports.

Purchases

Remove Ads is an optional one-time purchase. It is processed by Apple's App Store or Google Play; your payment details are handled entirely by those stores and never reach us. The game receives only confirmation that the purchase was made and stores that result on your device so the ads stay off. Restore Purchases asks the store to confirm earlier purchases.

Consent & Tracking Choices

Device Permissions

The only permission Tickshift may request is App Tracking Transparency on iOS, described above. Tickshift does not request access to your location, camera, microphone, photos, contacts, or health data. Haptic feedback uses your device's vibration and can be turned off in the game's settings.

How We Use Information

We do not build profiles about you, and we do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.

Third-Party Services

Tickshift contains no analytics or crash-reporting SDK of its own. The privacy policy and terms pages open in your device's in-app browser, which follows your browser's own privacy settings. Apple's and Google's operating systems may collect their own diagnostic data under their respective privacy policies.

Data Storage & Security

We do not operate servers that store your data. Game progress and settings stay on your device. Advertising data is transmitted over encrypted connections to Google and handled under Google's security controls.

Data Retention & Deletion

Children's Privacy

Tickshift is a general-audience puzzle game and is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child's information has been processed through the ads in Tickshift, contact us and we will help you with the request.

Your Rights & Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under local law (such as access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data). Because we do not hold personal data that identifies you, many requests are best directed to Google for advertising data; we will help where we can.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will revise the date at the top of this page. Please review this page periodically.
