Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

FB COMPANY LLC, publishing as FB COMPANY ("we", "us"), provides Water Sort: Potion Garden for Android and Google Play. The installed app is named Water Sort; its package name is com.fbcompany.watersort.

This policy explains the information handled by the game, our support team, and the third-party services used for advertising and purchases.

2. Game data and permissions

You do not need a player account to play. The game does not ask for your name, email address, date of birth or payment details during gameplay. It does not access your contacts, photos, microphone, camera or precise GPS location.

Progress, inventory, preferences, advertising timing counters and a limited history of recent game attempts are stored in the app’s private storage on your device. These records are not automatically sent to a server operated by us. We do not provide account-based cloud saves or cross-device synchronization.

The app uses internet and network-status access for advertising, consent and purchases, Google Play billing access for purchases, and vibration for optional haptic feedback. It does not request access to shared files or storage.

3. Advertising and privacy choices

The game uses Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads for banner ads in reserved areas, interstitial ads between completed levels subject to timing limits, and optional rewarded ads. A rewarded ad grants the stated benefit only when Google reports that the reward was earned.

The app requests non-personalized ads. It is configured not to access the Android advertising ID and disables Google’s publisher first-party ID feature. Non-personalized advertising can still involve information processing for ad delivery, measurement and fraud prevention.

Google’s Mobile Ads SDK collects and shares information for advertising, analytics and fraud prevention. This includes your IP address (which may indicate an approximate location), interactions such as app launches, ad taps and video views, diagnostic information, and applicable device or account identifiers, such as an app set ID. The app’s advertising-ID restriction does not prevent all other identifiers from being processed. Google describes its practices in its Privacy Policy and Mobile Ads data disclosure.

Google’s User Messaging Platform checks applicable consent requirements when the app starts. Ad requests are allowed only when the consent service indicates that ads may be requested. Where required, a privacy form is shown and Privacy options appears in the game settings so you can revisit your choices. A refusal does not prevent access to the basic puzzle game. Optional ad-funded benefits depend on ad availability and your choices. Consent and non-personalized advertising are separate: consenting does not switch this app to personalized ads.

4. Google Play purchases

Optional purchases provide consumable game items, such as undo moves, shuffles, extra bottles, color magnets and lives. Prices and payment confirmation are supplied by Google Play in your local currency.

Google processes payment and account information under its Privacy Policy. We do not receive your payment card number, bank credentials or Google password.

The app handles purchase status, product identifiers, quantities and signed purchase data. It stores a hash of the purchase token with the delivered inventory locally to prevent the same purchase from being granted twice. Pending payments do not grant items. After verification and successful local delivery, the app confirms fulfillment through Google Play so that the item can be purchased again.

Consumable balances are local. Clearing app data, uninstalling the game or changing devices can remove progress and unused items. Already consumed items are not restored from Google Play purchase history. Unfinished purchases may be recovered by checking purchases while connected to the same Google Play account. Refund requests are handled under Google Play’s refund procedures; contact our support if delivery fails.

5. Support messages

If you contact us, we receive the information you choose to send, such as your email address, message, device details or an order reference. We use it to respond, investigate problems and handle privacy requests. Do not send passwords or full payment card information. Support providers may process messages on our behalf.

6. Analytics and other services

The game does not integrate a separate remote gameplay analytics or cloud-save service. Unity Analytics, Unity Ads and Unity crash/performance reporting are disabled. Local diagnostic logs and game statistics are not automatically uploaded to us. Google’s SDK and Google Play may separately process technical diagnostics and service interactions.

The game runs on the Unity engine; see Unity’s player privacy information. No additional advertising mediation SDKs or social-network SDKs are included. Websites opened from the app and advertisements have their own privacy notices.

7. Retention, deletion and security

Local progress and preferences remain until changed or removed. Recent campaign history is limited to 200 attempts. Purchase-delivery records have no scheduled expiry because they prevent duplicate grants. The app disables Android’s standard automatic backup; device-manufacturer transfer behavior may differ.

You can remove local records through Android Settings → Apps → Water Sort → Storage → Clear storage, or by uninstalling the app. This also removes local progress and inventory. We cannot remotely access or delete records that exist only on your device. Deleting the game does not delete Google’s advertising, consent or transaction records.

We retain support correspondence for as long as needed to address the request, resolve disputes and meet applicable legal obligations. You can request deletion of information you have sent to us by emailing the address below; we will delete it unless continued retention is required or permitted by applicable law. Google applies its own retention rules. App storage relies on Android’s app isolation and device protections; the game does not separately encrypt its local save files. The app blocks unencrypted HTTP connections, and Google’s advertising service encrypts transmitted data using TLS. No storage or communication system can guarantee absolute security.

8. Children and families

The game does not ask players to disclose their age and does not operate an age-verification or parental-consent service. A non-personalized ad setting does not eliminate all processing of children’s technical information. Parents and guardians can use Google Play parental controls and purchase approval settings.

If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us using the details below. We will review the request, delete information we hold when required, and help identify the appropriate third-party privacy channel. Do not include unnecessary information about the child.

9. Your rights and international processing

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or obtain a copy of personal information, object to or restrict processing, withdraw consent, or complain to your local data-protection authority. Contact us about information you provided to us. Use the in-game privacy options and Google’s privacy controls for Google’s services.

Information handled by our support channels and service providers may be processed outside your country, including in the United States. Applicable rights and safeguards depend on the service and governing law. Withdrawing consent does not invalidate processing that occurred before withdrawal.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when the game, services or requirements change. The “Last updated” date at the top identifies the current version. Where required, material changes will be communicated in the app or through another appropriate notice.
