Privacy Policy for CargoNudge

July 01, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how CargoNudge ("the Game", "we", "our") handles your information. We are committed to protecting your privacy. Please read this document carefully.

1. Overview

CargoNudge is a casual Sokoban-style crate-pushing puzzle game designed for short, relaxed play sessions on mobile. The Game offers ten hand-built dockyard puzzle bays, a three-star par-move rating system, unlockable forklift crew skins, achievement badges, and per-bay statistics. CargoNudge is designed with an offline-first approach: all game progress and preferences are stored exclusively on your device and never transmitted to our servers.

2. Data We Do NOT Collect

We do not collect, store, or transmit any of the following:

• Personal identification information (name, email, phone number, etc.)
• Account credentials or authentication tokens
• Device location or GPS coordinates (the Game does not request location permissions)
• Usage analytics, crash reports, or behavioral telemetry
• Advertising identifiers or tracking cookies
• Your gameplay patterns, session times, or in-game choices

3. Data Stored Locally on Your Device

The following data is stored only on your device using Android's DataStore, and is never sent to any external server:

• Game progress: which dock bays are cleared, the number of stars earned per bay (0–3), and your best (fewest) move count per bay.
• Currency and unlocks: your current and lifetime bolt balance, which forklift crew skins you own, and which skin is equipped.
• Achievements: which of the six shift badges you have unlocked, based on bays cleared, perfect solves, bolts banked, and crews owned.
• Preferences: theme (Light / Dark / System), sound effects on/off, haptic feedback on/off, and target-socket glow on/off, stored via Android DataStore.

All locally stored data remains under your full control. You may reset game progress via the Settings screen, or uninstall the Game to remove all data permanently.

4. Third-Party Services — None

The Game does not communicate with any third-party services. All gameplay, progress tracking, and features work entirely offline. This section does not apply.

5. Permissions

The Game requests the following permission(s):

• None. The Game functions entirely offline. Sound effects use the device's built-in tone generator and haptic feedback uses the standard view feedback API; neither requires a declared permission.

The Game does NOT request:

• Location (GPS, coarse, background)
• Camera or microphone
• Contacts
• Phone state or identifiers
• SMS or call log access
• Photos, media, or file access
• Internet access

6. No Advertising or Analytics SDKs

CargoNudge does not integrate any advertising networks (AdMob, Unity Ads, AppLovin, etc.), analytics SDKs (Firebase Analytics, GameAnalytics, Amplitude, etc.), or third-party tracking libraries. There are no ads of any kind within the Game, and no in-app purchases.

7. Children's Privacy

The Game does not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13. Since the Game collects no personal information from any user, it is safe for use by all ages.

8. Data Security

Because all game progress and user-generated data is stored locally on your device, the security of that data depends on the security measures provided by the Android operating system and your device (screen lock, encryption, etc.). We do not control how Android handles on-device storage security, but we do not expose any data to external parties.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected in an updated version of this document bundled with a new Game release. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will be revised accordingly. Continued use of the Game after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
