Layerlings: Paper Puzzles

Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 3, 2026. Applies to Layerlings 1.0.0.

Hishi Games operates Layerlings. This policy explains the app's local saves, its optional Apple purchase and what happens if you contact us. The game is being prepared for public release. This policy does not describe every other Hishi game; their practices are listed in the studio privacy policy.

What the app does

Layerlings plays its puzzles on your device. It does not require an account and includes no advertising, analytics SDK, cross-app tracking or Hishi gameplay server. We do not receive your puzzle arrangements, move history, completion results or play-session events from the app.

The app does not request access to your contacts, location, camera, photos or microphone. It plays bundled audio and does not record audio.

Game data stored on your device

The app uses app-private local storage for:

Layerlings does not provide a Hishi account, Hishi cloud save or built-in progress transfer between devices. Apple's device-backup and diagnostic services may handle app data according to your Apple settings and agreements. This policy does not claim that data can never leave your device through those system services.

Optional purchase and restore through Apple

The first 12 pages are free. The optional complete-book unlock is a one-time, non-consumable in-app purchase processed by Apple StoreKit. Apple handles the Apple Account, payment and transaction services. Hishi Games does not receive your payment-card details or Apple Account password.

The app checks Apple-verified transaction information to determine whether the complete book is available and stores the resulting unlock state locally. There is no Hishi purchase server, RevenueCat integration or third-party purchase SDK in this version.

Loading product information, purchasing, restoring and refreshing Apple entitlements may use Apple's services. A cached verified unlock supports offline play. Apple may revoke an entitlement, such as following a refund, and the app updates its local state when that change is verified.

Apple processes its own store and purchase information under Apple's App Store privacy information and its other applicable terms. The absence of Hishi analytics does not mean Apple collects no information about downloads or purchases.

When you email support

If you choose to email hishigames@proton.me, we receive your email address and the message and attachments you send. We use them to respond and investigate your request. Avoid sending passwords, payment details or unrelated sensitive information. Support messages are handled through our email provider; they are separate from the app's on-device gameplay.

You may ask us about a support message or request its deletion at the same address. We cannot retrieve local game saves from your device, and we cannot erase Apple's transaction records on your behalf.

Managing or deleting data

Deleting the app can remove its locally stored progress and preferences. It does not cancel, refund or delete an Apple purchase, and it may not remove copies in Apple backups. Manage those backups and purchases through Apple's settings and services.

Before deleting or reinstalling the app as a troubleshooting step, contact support if you need to preserve progress. Restore Purchases can restore an eligible content unlock using the same Apple Account; it does not restore progress from a different device.

Children and permissions

The app's no-account and no-tracking design applies to all players. It does not request personal information as part of a puzzle. Apple controls purchase authorization, including any family or parental settings on the device. We do not advertise the game as collecting no information when a parent or player chooses to contact support.

This website is hosted by Lovable, whose built-in visitor analytics measures website visits separately from the offline app. Lovable describes this service as using no cookies or browser storage. These Layerlings documents do not add Google Analytics, advertising tags or a contact form. Optional Google Analytics on other pages is controlled by website privacy choices; that choice does not control Lovable's hosting analytics.
