Tumble Jar
Privacy policy
In short:
- There are no accounts. The game never asks for your name, e-mail or phone number.
- There are no ads and no in-app purchases.
- Your settings and statistics stay on your phone.
- The game sends anonymous play statistics and crash reports (both to PostHog) so it can be improved. One switch turns both off: Settings → Anonymous statistics.
- Nothing is sold.
Who is responsible
Tumble Jar is made by Aiplaz ("we", "us"). We are responsible for the data described here. You can reach us at support.aiplaz@gmail.com.
What stays on your phone
The game saves on your device, in its own storage:
- your settings: language, theme, sound, vibration and the anonymous statistics switch;
- your statistics: best score, games played, play time, longest chain, best level, how many of each ball you made and your recent scores;
- whether you have finished the first, guided game.
None of it is sent to us. It is deleted when you uninstall the game. Because it exists only on your phone, we cannot restore it if it is lost.
No ads, no purchases
Tumble Jar shows no ads and has no in-app purchases. It does not use your device's advertising identifier.
Statistics: PostHog
To see how long games last, which levels are too hard and whether players come back, the game sends anonymous events to PostHog, a product analytics service, on its servers in the European Union (Frankfurt, Germany). Each installation gets a random identifier created by the game; it is not linked to your name, your Google or Apple account or the advertising identifier (the game does not use the advertising identifier). The events are:
- a game started, and whether it was the guided first game;
- a game ended: the score, the level reached, how long it lasted in seconds, the longest chain, the biggest ball made, why it ended and whether it was a new best;
- the guided first game finished or skipped;
- the app being opened, sent to the background, installed or updated;
- the app version, the device model, the operating system and its version, the language and the time zone.
When an event arrives, PostHog works out the approximate country and city from the IP address; the IP address itself is not stored. Statistics are on when you install the game. You can turn them off at any time in Settings → Anonymous statistics: from then on nothing more is sent. The events are kept only as long as they are useful for improving the game, and for at most 24 months. PostHog's privacy policy: posthog.com/privacy.
This website
The pages on aiplaz.github.io count visits and clicks on links (for example the buttons of the Tumble Jar test) with PostHog, hosted in the EU. They set no cookies and store nothing in your browser, do not build a profile of you and are not used for ads. We see only which pages were opened, which links were clicked, the page language and the approximate country.
Crash reports: PostHog
When the game crashes or hits an error, a report goes to PostHog, together with the statistics, on its servers in the European Union (Frankfurt, Germany). A report contains the technical error message and where in the code it happened, the app version, the device model, the operating system and its version and the language, with the same random installation identifier. It contains no name, e-mail, advertising identifier or screenshot, and the IP address is not stored. Reports are kept like the statistics, for at most 24 months. The same switch turns them off: Settings → Anonymous statistics.
Builds of the game released before November 2026 send crash reports to Sentry instead, an error monitoring service, on its servers in the European Union (Frankfurt, Germany), with the same kind of content plus the last technical steps before the error and the free memory and storage; those reports are kept for at most 90 days. Sentry's privacy policy: sentry.io/privacy.
Why (legal bases)
| What | Why | Legal basis (GDPR) |
|---|---|---|
| Settings and statistics on your phone | So the game works and remembers your settings and best scores | Needed to provide the game (art. 6(1)(b)) |
| Statistics and crash reports | Find bugs, balance the levels | Legitimate interest in a working, well-balanced game (art. 6(1)(f)); you can object by turning them off |
Who receives data
Only PostHog (statistics and crash reports), plus Sentry for crash reports from builds released before November 2026, as described above. Sentry may process data outside the European Economic Area, protected by the EU–US Data Privacy Framework and the European Commission's standard contractual clauses. We do not sell or rent data to anyone.
Children
Tumble Jar is meant for players aged 13 and over and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has used the game and data about them was collected, write to us and we will delete what we can.
Your rights
You can ask for access to your data, its correction or deletion, restrict its use or object to it (turning off Settings → Anonymous statistics, as described above, is the quickest way to object). How to delete your data: Delete your data. Because the statistics are anonymous, we usually cannot tell which events are yours; write to us and we will do what is possible. You can also complain to your data protection authority.
Changes
If the game starts collecting something new, this page will be updated first and the date at the top will change.
