Privacy Policy
Foxip — puzzle game for Android. Last updated: 3 October 2026.
Foxip is a single-player puzzle game. It has no accounts, no sign-in and no social features. This policy explains what the game stores on your device and what the advertising provider receives.
Data we collect ourselves: none
We operate no server and the game contains no analytics or tracking code. Nothing you do in Foxip is sent to us, and we are unable to identify you.
Data stored on your device
Your progress is saved in a single file inside the app's private storage
(zipfox.json), readable only by Foxip. It contains:
- levels completed and stars earned;
- unlimited and incognito modes progress;
- daily challenge history, current streak, best streak, and earned shields and hints;
- your settings: music, sound effects, vibration, chosen language.
This file never leaves your device. Uninstalling Foxip deletes it permanently; there is no backup and no way for us to restore it.
Advertising
Foxip shows a banner on the home screen and an optional rewarded video when you ask for a hint. Ads are served by Google AdMob, which acts as an independent data controller. To serve, measure and cap ads, Google may process:
- your device's advertising identifier;
- your IP address, and an approximate location derived from it;
- precise location data, but only if you explicitly allow it: it is an optional purpose that you can refuse on its own, under « Manage options » in the consent form, while still accepting the rest;
- device and app information (model, operating system, app version, language);
- ad interactions, such as an ad being displayed or clicked.
We never receive this data in a form that identifies you; we only see aggregate revenue totals. Google's handling of it is described in the Google Privacy Policy and in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
Consent
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, Foxip asks for your consent before any personalised advertising, through Google's official consent form. You may refuse personalised ads and still play the entire game: you will simply see non-personalised ads. Your choice is stored on your device.
Permissions the app requests
INTERNETandACCESS_NETWORK_STATE— to load ads. The game itself works offline.AD_ID— the advertising identifier used by AdMob.VIBRATE— haptic feedback, which you can turn off in the settings.WAKE_LOCK,FOREGROUND_SERVICEandREAD_BASIC_PHONE_STATE— required by Google's advertising libraries, not used by the game.
Children
Foxip is not directed at children under 13 and we knowingly collect no data from them. Because the game contains advertising, we recommend parental supervision for young players.
Your choices
- Reset or delete your advertising identifier — Android Settings › Privacy › Ads. Deleting it stops personalised advertising across every app on the device.
- Change your advertising consent — deleting your advertising identifier in Android settings, or reinstalling Foxip, resets the choice and the consent form is shown again.
- Delete everything — uninstall the app.
Data sharing and retention
We sell no data and share none, because we hold none. Data processed by Google is retained according to Google's own policies, over which we have no control.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the date at the top of this page is updated. A change that materially affects you will be announced inside the game.
