Brindlewick - Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Brindlewick (the “App”) handles user information. The App is a pixel-art dog personality quiz: you assemble a pixel dog, answer eight everyday-scenario questions, and get a personality reading and a shareable card. It is for entertainment only — not veterinary advice.

Parts of the App are supported by advertising and attribution technology, so some data is collected by us and by our service providers. The categories below match what the App declares in its App Store privacy details.

1. Data Collected and Used to Track You

The following data may be collected, linked to you, and used to track you — that is, used to connect your activity with other companies’ apps and websites for advertising measurement and personalised ads:

• Device ID — identifiers such as the advertising identifier and vendor ID (purposes: analytics, app functionality, our advertising, third-party advertising).
• Advertising Data — information about the ads you see and interact with (purposes: analytics, app functionality, our advertising, third-party advertising).
• Coarse Location — approximate location such as the country or region derived from your IP address (purposes: analytics, app functionality, our advertising, third-party advertising).
• Product Interaction — how you use the App, such as screens opened, quiz progress and buttons tapped (purposes: analytics, app functionality, our advertising, third-party advertising).
• Performance Data — technical measurements such as load times and error rates (purposes: analytics, app functionality, our advertising, third-party advertising).
• User ID — identifiers that can be used to recognise a user or account (purposes: analytics, app functionality, third-party advertising).
• Other Data — any other data collected by the advertising and analytics partners listed below (purposes: analytics, app functionality, our advertising, third-party advertising).

2. Data Collected but Not Used to Track You

The following data may be collected but is not used to track you across other companies’ apps and websites:

• Crash Data — crash logs and diagnostics, linked to you (purposes: analytics, app functionality, third-party advertising).
• Customer Support — information you send when you contact support, not linked to you (purpose: app functionality).
• Other Diagnostic Data — additional technical diagnostics, not linked to you (purposes: analytics, app functionality, our advertising, third-party advertising).
• Other Usage Data — additional usage information, not linked to you (purposes: analytics, third-party advertising).

3. Third-Party Services and SDKs

The App embeds the following third-party technology. These providers may collect the categories above under their own privacy policies:

• Adjust — attribution and analytics, including ad-revenue and campaign measurement. Privacy policy: adjust.com/legal/privacy-policy.
• AppLovin MAX — advertising mediation. MAX connects many third-party advertising networks (for example Meta Audience Network, Chartboost and InMobi) that may serve ads and measure them. Privacy policy: applovin.com/privacy.

The App also displays ads from the networks mediated through AppLovin MAX; those networks may collect advertising identifiers and interaction data as described in the “Used to Track You” section above.

4. App Tracking Transparency

On first launch the App asks for your permission to track your activity across other companies’ apps and websites (the iOS App Tracking Transparency prompt):

• If you allow tracking, the advertising and analytics partners above may use the advertising identifier to deliver personalised ads and to measure ad performance.
• If you do not allow tracking, the App keeps working normally; you may still see ads, but they will be less personalised and measurement will be limited.

You can change your choice at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking on your device.

5. Data That Stays on Your Device

Some features of the App keep their data strictly on your device. This data is not part of any category listed above and is never uploaded:

• Photos — if you pick a photo so the App can match your dog’s colours, the photo is read on your device to extract colour values and is never uploaded or stored by the App. Only the extracted colour values may be kept in your local save data.
• Quiz answers, your dog’s appearance and name, saved dogs (“The Pack”), unlocked entries and settings — stored only in the App’s local save on your device.
• Result cards — composed on your device. Saving one to Photos or sharing it uses the system share sheet and is up to you.

6. Your Choices and Data Deletion

• Open Settings inside the App and use Reset all data to clear your saved dogs, unlocked entries and settings.
• Uninstalling the App removes its local save data from your device.
• Use Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking on your device to change or turn off tracking permission at any time.

7. Children

The App is suitable for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. The advertising technologies described above operate only as described in this policy and under the tracking permission you grant.

8. Privacy Policy Updates

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. Any updates will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date.
