This policy tells you what data Tic Tac Poof collects, why, and how you can delete it. Last updated: November 11, 2026.
OFFLINE PLAY
When you play against the computer or use Pass and Play, the app collects no data. Nothing leaves your device.
ONLINE PLAY
Play Online uses Google Firebase (Firebase Authentication and Firebase Realtime Database) to connect two players. When you use Play Online, we store:
• An anonymous user ID that Firebase makes for your device. It is not linked to your name, email, or Apple account.
• The nickname you type, if you type one. If you skip it, the app shows "Player". Do not use your real name.
• Game room data: the room code, the two nicknames, the marks on the board, and the times of the moves.
To give this service, Google processes technical data such as your IP address. See the Firebase privacy information.
HOW WE USE THE DATA
We use this data only to run online games between you and your friend. We do not show ads. We do not track you. We do not sell or share your data for marketing.
HOW LONG WE KEEP IT
Your nickname and anonymous ID stay until you delete them. A waiting room is deleted when its host leaves. Other game rooms can stay on the server. They hold only nicknames, marks, and times.
DELETE YOUR DATA
In the app, open Play Online and tap "Delete my data". This deletes your nickname and your anonymous account. To ask us to delete game rooms, send an email to rajivsingh.github@gmail.com.
CHILDREN
Tic Tac Poof is for all ages. We do not ask for personal information. A nickname should not be a real name.
CHANGES AND CONTACT
