Privacy Policy

1. Our Commitment: 100% Offline Gameplay

Minesweeper Academy is designed from the ground up as an offline-first puzzle game. We do not require you to create an account, log in with an email address, or provide any personal identity details. The core game logic, daily challenge generators, and belt curriculum function completely without an internet connection.

2. Information Stored Locally on Your Device

All gameplay data is stored exclusively on your local device using the app’s on-device storage. This includes:

• Your earned belt rank (White through Black Belt) and accumulated XP
• Lesson completion and drill mastery status
• Statistics (win rates, best times, tiles cleared, flags placed)
• Daily challenge streaks and completion dates
• Personal settings (sound effects, haptics, theme accents, control toggles)

This data remains on your device. We do not transmit, sync, or sell your local gameplay data to external servers. Uninstalling the app completely removes all stored data.

3. Third-Party Services

Minesweeper Academy currently shows no advertisements, contains no analytics or tracking SDKs, and offers no in-app purchases. The only third-party service in the app is crash reporting:

• Firebase Crashlytics (Google) receives a report when the app crashes or hits an unhandled error: the technical stack trace, device model, operating system version, app version, and a random installation identifier. It is used only to find and fix bugs, never for advertising, and contains none of your gameplay data or player name.

If a future version introduces advertising or in-app purchases, this policy and the app’s store privacy labels will be updated before that version is released, describing exactly what those services collect.

4. Children's Privacy (COPPA & GDPR)

Minesweeper Academy does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. The app has no accounts, no ads, and no chat or social features, and the optional player name never leaves the device. If you have any concern about a child’s use of the app, please contact us.

5. Deep Linking & Share Links

When you share a game result or board seed with a friend, parameters (e.g., difficulty, elapsed time, seed) are encoded directly in the public URL. No personal identity or private data is transmitted.
