Idle Castle Clicker Privacy Policy

Idle Castle Clicker, for Android and iOS (app id com.idlecastleclicker.game). Last updated 1 November 2026.

Who we are

Idle Castle Clicker is made by Sni Gaming, an independent developer in Norway. If you have a question about this policy or your data, write to henrikmoepe@gmail.com.

The short version

The game has no accounts, and we run no servers. Your progress lives on your phone. We never see your name, email or location. The only data that leaves your phone goes to Google and Apple: for ads, for purchases, and, if you have it switched on, for your phone's own backup (Android backup or iCloud).

What stays on your phone

• Your save. Progress, settings and the record of what you have bought are stored on your device.

The game does not use analytics, crash reporting or any other tracking of its own, and it loads nothing from the internet apart from Google's ads and purchase services.

Backup by Android and iPhone

If Android backup is on for your phone, it can save the game's progress to your Google account, so it comes back on a new phone or after reinstalling. This is run by Google under Google's Privacy Policy. You can switch it off in your phone's backup settings. We cannot read these backups.

On iPhone, the game's save file is part of your device backup. If iCloud Backup is on, Apple saves it to your iCloud account, so it comes back on a new iPhone or after reinstalling. This is run by Apple under Apple's Privacy Policy. You can switch it off in your iPhone's iCloud settings. We cannot read these backups either.

Ads

The game shows ads only when you choose to watch one for a reward. Ads come from Google AdMob. To show ads, measure them and stop fraud, Google's software in the game may collect:

• your device's advertising ID (on Android the advertising ID; on iPhone the identifier for advertisers, which Google receives only if you tap Allow when the game asks to track you),
• your IP address and the rough location it suggests,
• information about your device (model, operating system, language),
• how you interact with the ads.

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, the game asks for your consent before any ad is shown. You can change your answer at any time in the game's Settings, under Privacy. You can also reset or delete your advertising ID in your phone's settings. On iPhone, the game asks, before the first ad, whether it may track you across other companies' apps and websites. If you tap Ask App Not to Track, ads are still shown, but without the identifier for advertisers. You can change this at any time in the iPhone's Settings under Privacy & Security, Tracking.

How Google uses this data: How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.

Purchases

Purchases are handled by Google Play on Android and by the App Store on iPhone. We never see your card or payment details. The game receives a purchase confirmation from Google Play or Apple and keeps it on your phone, so an item is not lost or given twice. On iPhone, Settings has a Restore Purchases button that asks the App Store for the items you have bought before. Google's handling of payments is described in the Google Payments Privacy Notice; Apple's is in Apple's Privacy Policy.

Children

Idle Castle Clicker is not made for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to access, correct and delete your personal data, and to object to its use. We do not hold any data about you ourselves. For data collected by Google, use your Google account's privacy settings; for data held by Apple, use privacy.apple.com; or write to us and we will help. To erase your game progress, uninstall the game. If you think your data has been handled wrongly, you can complain to the Norwegian Data Protection Authority, Datatilsynet.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
