Applies to: the current Android and iOS apps of Fingertip Words (戳戳小自然), version 1.0.0.

The game is provided by makemori (森造). For privacy questions or requests, contact [email protected].

This policy describes the game. It does not cover a WeChat mini-game, a browser-based game or browsing the makemori website. The website privacy notice explains information handling when you visit this page.

Information processed on your device

The game stores the following information locally to operate, remember your choices and continue scenes:

  • Preferences: language, sound controls and volume, visual quality, reduced motion and the last natural scene you played.
  • Scene saves: the layouts and interaction results that can be saved in the pond, snow, ice and sand garden, together with scene numbers, save versions, numbers used to recreate randomized scenes and save times. These records let you continue playing later; moving water, short sounds and other passing effects are not all saved.
  • Local game records: the in-game coin balance and related operation records. Game coins are local game data, not banking or payment-account information.

The game reads system language, operating-system version, screen dimensions and safe-area information to choose a language and adapt the interface. These settings, saves and runtime details are processed on your device. The current game has no service that uploads them as a player profile or cloud save.

Accounts, analytics, advertising, purchases and permissions

The Android and iOS versions covered by this policy do not provide game accounts, social sign-in, cloud saves or cross-device synchronization. The game does not send gameplay data to analytics services, has no ads or in-app purchases, and does not download additional game content from a server. We do not use the game for cross-app or cross-website advertising tracking, or sell local game records.

Playing does not require your name, phone number, identity documents or advertising identifier. The game does not request access to your camera, microphone, contacts, precise location or photo library.

The Android version has Internet access permission and is configured to block unencrypted HTTP connections. Game content is supplied with the app, and core play works offline. Viewing the privacy policy opens a webpage over an encrypted HTTPS connection in the system browser. The game does not add local saves or player-specific information to policy links.

External pages, stores and device services

When you choose to open a policy or support webpage, your browser contacts that website. Requests can involve information such as your IP address, visit time and browser details. The makemori website uses Cloudflare for delivery and security, and the public website uses Google Analytics to understand visits. See the website privacy notice, Cloudflare privacy policy and Google privacy policy for those practices and browser choices. Disabled in-game analytics does not mean that a visit to the policy website has no website analytics.

App downloads, updates and any operating-system or device-backup services you enable are handled by the relevant store, system or provider under its own policies. Those services are separate from a game account or cloud-save service operated by us; the current game does not provide either.

Information you send for support

If you email us, we receive your email address, message and any screenshots or other attachments you choose to include. We use them to answer questions, investigate problems and handle privacy requests. Contacting support is optional and is not a condition of playing. It does not enable ongoing collection of device information or game progress.

Your email provider and the providers needed to deliver and manage our support mailbox process correspondence to provide email services. We do not use support messages for advertising, or sell, rent or share them for advertising purposes. Access is limited to the people and providers needed to handle your request. If disclosure is legally required, we disclose only information we actually hold and only as needed for that obligation.

Cover personal information in screenshots. Do not send passwords, verification codes, identity documents or sensitive payment details. Ordinary support email is not an end-to-end encrypted channel provided by us.

Retention, backups and security

Local settings and saves remain in app storage until the relevant contents are reset, replaced or deleted. Resetting one natural scene affects that scene; it does not delete all settings or the other environments. We do not hold a cloud copy that lets us remotely read or restore local saves.

The Android version disables app backup and is set to exclude the app’s files, databases and settings from cloud backups and transfers between devices. Operating-system and device-manufacturer behavior can vary. On iOS, system backups depend on your device settings and platform services. The game does not provide automatic cross-device restoration or guarantee recovery after uninstalling.

Local data relies on the operating system’s app storage and access controls. The game does not add a separate save password or save-file encryption layer. Use your device lock and protect access to the device. No storage or transmission method can guarantee absolute security.

We retain support correspondence only as needed to reply, resolve the request and meet applicable legal obligations. When it is no longer needed, or we receive a verified deletion request and no legal retention obligation applies, we delete the corresponding information we hold. If some contents must be retained, we explain why.

Deleting data and making privacy requests

You can change preferences in Settings. On Android, clearing app storage removes local data. On iOS, use Delete App, rather than offloading it and keeping its documents and data. Manage backups separately through your system or backup provider. Deletion can permanently remove settings, scenes and game records; we do not have a cloud copy to recover them.

This edition has no game account to delete. Deleting device saves and deleting support correspondence are separate actions. Sending us an email cannot erase data on your device or backups managed by other providers.

To request access, correction or deletion of information you sent us, or withdraw consent for processing that relies on consent, email [email protected] with the product name and your specific request. Replying from the original email address can help locate correspondence. We ask only for information needed to verify a request; you do not need to install the game or create an account.

Withdrawing consent does not affect earlier lawful processing or legal retention obligations, and does not disable local play. Playing or reading this page does not authorize future optional collection. Where applicable, you may also request a restriction on processing, object to processing or contact your local data-protection authority.

Children and young players

The current game does not require children to submit personal information, and advertising and behavioral tracking are disabled. Parents or guardians can manage local device data. If a child sends personal information through support email that should not be retained, contact us using the address above so we can take appropriate steps to handle and delete it.

Policy changes and contact

If we introduce accounts, analytics, advertising, purchases, remote content or other data practices, we will update the policy before they apply and provide any notice or consent required. The updated date above identifies this version.

For privacy questions, email [email protected]. You may use “Fingertip Words privacy request” in the subject.
