Privacy Policy

Pineapps built the Kruiswoordpuzzel app (Dutch Crosswords, package com.kruiswoordraadsel.app) as an Ad Supported app. This SERVICE is provided by Pineapps at no cost and is intended for use as is. Optional in-app purchases may be offered.

This page is used to inform visitors regarding my policies with the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information if anyone decided to use my Service.

If you choose to use my Service, then you agree to the collection and use of information in relation to this policy. The Personal Information that I collect is used for providing and improving the Service. I will not use or share your information with anyone except as described in this Privacy Policy.

The terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms and Conditions, unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy.

Information Collection and Use

You can play without an account. If you choose to sign in (with Apple, with Google or with an email address), the following information is collected and stored on our servers (Google Firebase) to provide account features:

If you sign in with Apple and choose to hide your email address, we only receive a private relay address from Apple.

Purchases are processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play. Purchase status is managed through RevenueCat using an anonymous or account-linked identifier; we never receive your payment details.

The app uses third-party services that may collect information used to identify you, such as your device's advertising ID (on iOS, the advertising identifier is only available if you allow tracking), IP address and app usage data. Advertising partners may use this information to show ads in the app.
