Neon Bluff does not ask you to create an account. We do not run our own backend server. We do not use analytics or crash reporting. We do not track you across other apps or websites.
The one thing that’s different from a fully offline game: Neon Bluff shows ads. Ads are served by Google AdMob, which may collect a device-level advertising identifier (IDFA) if you allow it. iOS will ask you on first launch via the standard App Tracking Transparency prompt, and declining is fine — the game still works, ads just become non-personalised.
Game Center is optional. Sign in if you want leaderboards; skip it if you don’t.
The following are kept on your iPhone using UserDefaults, the standard iOS on-device key/value store:
This information never leaves your device. It’s covered under Apple’s NSPrivacyAccessedAPICategoryUserDefaults declaration with reason code CA92.1 (“Access info from same app, per the app’s functionality”).
If you delete Neon Bluff from your iPhone, this on-device information is erased.
To support the free version, Neon Bluff includes Google AdMob (Google’s Mobile Ads SDK).
You can revisit your tracking decision any time at Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking, or Settings → Neon Bluff on your iPhone. You can also reset your advertising identifier any time at Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking → Reset Advertising Identifier.
If you sign into Apple’s Game Center to use leaderboards or achievements, your Game Center alias and score data are sent to Apple’s Game Center service. We see only the score numbers and the alias Apple shows us — never your real name, email, or Apple ID. Game Center is operated by Apple under their privacy terms: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/. You can sign out of Game Center any time from Settings → Game Center on your iPhone.
Neon Bluff is rated 4+ on the App Store. The game contains no inappropriate content. We do not knowingly collect or solicit data from children under 13. AdMob is configured to request only general-audience ad content (MaxAdContentRating: G) and to apply Google’s “tag for users under the age of consent” treatment by default in regions where that designation applies, which restricts the use of advertising identifiers and personalised ads for those users. Declining the App Tracking Transparency prompt also ensures only non-personalised ads are served, regardless of region.
Under the GDPR and the UK GDPR, you have the right to access, correct, or delete personal data held about you, and to object to processing. Because Neon Bluff itself does not collect or hold personal data, requests of this nature are most usefully directed to Google for the AdMob data described above. Google’s instructions are at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en and https://support.google.com/admob/answer/7666366. The lawful basis for AdMob’s processing of advertising identifiers is your consent, gathered via the iOS App Tracking Transparency prompt. If you decline, no advertising identifier is shared and ads are non-personalised.
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act, California residents have rights to know, delete, correct, and opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. Neon Bluff does not sell personal information. Whether AdMob’s use of advertising identifiers for personalised ads constitutes “sharing” under California law depends on Google’s determinations and your consent choice. To opt out of personalised ads at the device level, decline the App Tracking Transparency prompt or change the setting at Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
If we materially change how Neon Bluff handles data, we will update this page and bump the “Last updated” date at the top. Continued use of the app after a change constitutes acceptance.
