Jar Jokers
Privacy Policy
- You never need an account, a name or an email address to play.
- Your progress is saved on your phone. When you are online it can also be backed up with Unity Cloud Save under a random, anonymous player ID, so it survives a reinstall.
- Gameplay statistics (Unity Analytics) are collected only with your consent where the law requires it, and you can switch them off at any time.
- Ads come from Unity LevelPlay and the ad networks it works with. They use your device's advertising ID only as your choices allow. In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland we ask first; on iPhone, Apple's tracking prompt also applies.
- Purchases go through Google Play or the App Store; RevenueCat checks them for us. We never see your card details.
- We do not sell your personal information. Delete everything from Settings › Delete data, or email us.
1. Who we are
Jar Jokers is made by Tidejar Games ("we", "us"), the controller of the personal data described here. Contact: jonas.b3n@gmail.com.
Who we are: Yassine Benchekroun, an independent developer publishing as Tidejar Games. Postal address: 30 N Gould Street, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA. Email: jonas.b3n@gmail.com.
2. Data stored on your device
- Game progress: unlocks, coins, cosmetics, statistics, achievements, run history, settings and the run in progress. Stored in the app's private folder, with a backup copy so a crash can't lose it.
- Your privacy choices and a cached copy of your purchases (for example "no ads" or the Jester Club), so they work offline.
- This data stays on your phone until you delete the app or use Delete data. The game is fully playable offline.
3. Data that leaves your device
Only when you are online, and only for the features below. If a feature's online service is switched off, the game uses its offline version.
| What | Why | Who processes it | When |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anonymous player ID (random, created by Unity Authentication) | Link your cloud backup and leaderboard entries to this install | Unity Technologies (Unity Gaming Services) | When online |
| Game progress (the same data as on your device, without the run in progress) | Cloud backup and restore | Unity Cloud Save | When online |
| Daily Run and Endless scores, with an automatically generated nickname | Leaderboards | Unity Leaderboards | When you finish a Daily Run or an Endless run |
| Anonymous player ID, app version, device type | Download game settings (for example difficulty tuning) without an app update | Unity Remote Config | When the game starts online |
| Gameplay events (for example "run started", "jars sealed", "purchase result"), device model, OS version, country | Understanding which parts are too hard or too easy; fixing problems | Unity Analytics | Only with consent where required; never after you opt out |
| Advertising ID (GAID / IDFA), IP address, device information, ad interactions | Showing ads, measuring them, preventing fraud; personalised ads only if you allow them | Unity LevelPlay and the ad networks it works with | When an ad is requested or shown |
| Purchase receipts and an anonymous RevenueCat customer ID | Checking purchases, restoring them, managing the Jester Club subscription | Google Play / Apple App Store, RevenueCat | When you buy or restore |
We do not collect your name, email address, contacts, photos, precise location or any account details. If you email us, we use your email only to answer you.
4. Ads and your choices
- EEA, UK, Switzerland: on first launch the game asks whether ads may be personalised and analytics collected. Until you agree, ads are not personalised and no analytics are collected.
- Everywhere: Settings › Privacy lets you allow or refuse personalised ads and analytics at any time. Refusing also acts as a "do not sell or share" request under US state laws.
- iPhone: Apple's "Allow tracking" prompt and iOS Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking control the advertising ID.
- Android: you can reset or delete your advertising ID in Android Settings › Privacy › Ads.
- Rewarded ads only play when you tap a button that offers a reward. Other ads only appear after a whole run. The game works the same whatever you choose.
5. Purchases
Payments are handled entirely by Google Play or Apple. RevenueCat receives the store receipt and an anonymous customer ID to confirm the purchase and to restore it later. We receive a record that a product was bought, never card or bank details. Subscriptions are managed and cancelled in your store account.
6. Deleting your data
Open Settings › Delete data: the game deletes everything on your device and, when online, your cloud backup and your anonymous player account (which also removes your leaderboard entries). Prefer email? Write to jonas.b3n@gmail.com, with the player ID shown in Settings › Privacy if you have it; we delete it within 30 days. Details: Delete your data.
Ad networks and the stores keep their own records under their own policies; you can reset your advertising ID as described above.
7. How long we keep data
- Cloud backup and anonymous player account: until you delete them, or 24 months after your last online session.
- Analytics events: up to 13 months, then deleted or aggregated.
- Leaderboards: the daily board resets every day (past days are kept up to 30 days); the Endless board keeps your best score until you delete your data.
- Support emails: up to 24 months after the conversation ends.
8. Legal bases (EEA/UK)
Cloud backup, leaderboards, remote settings and purchase checks: performing our contract with you (providing the game). Analytics and personalised ads: your consent, which you can withdraw at any time. Non-personalised ads and fraud prevention: our legitimate interest in keeping the game free and safe.
9. Children
Jar Jokers is made for a general audience of teens and adults and is not directed at children under 13 (16 in some EEA countries). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has used the game and data was collected, email us and we will delete it.
10. International transfers and security
Our service providers may process data outside your country (for example in the USA) under appropriate safeguards such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses. Data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Local save files stay inside the app's private storage.
11. Your rights
You can ask for access, correction, deletion, restriction or a copy of your data, and object to processing. Email us with your player ID. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
12. This website
This website uses no cookies and no analytics. Its fonts load from Google Fonts, which receives your IP address to deliver them (Google privacy policy).
13. Changes
If this policy changes we update the date above and, for important changes, tell you in the game.
