Pinhole Privacy Policy
Effective November 12, 2026
Pinhole is a brick breaker game for iPhone and Android, made by Lambda IQ Games. This policy explains what happens to information about you when you play. Pinhole itself keeps your progress on your device and runs no servers. It shows ads from Google AdMob, and Google collects some data to serve them. A one-time purchase turns off the ads between levels.
Ads
Pinhole shows ads through Google AdMob, part of Google LLC. An ad can appear after a level ends, whether you cleared it or lost the ball, and you can choose to watch an ad to revive a lost ball. To show and measure ads and to prevent fraud, the Google Mobile Ads SDK collects:
- Device identifiers, such as the advertising identifier (IDFA on iPhone, the Android advertising ID) and app-scoped identifiers.
- Approximate location, estimated from your IP address.
- Ad interactions, such as which ads you saw, tapped or watched, and app launches.
- Diagnostics, such as crash logs and app performance data.
Google processes this data under its own privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy. Google explains how it uses data from apps that show its ads at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Your choices
- In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, Pinhole asks for your consent through Google's consent form before personalized ads are shown. You can change your choice at any time with Privacy options in the main menu.
- On iPhone, Pinhole asks whether it may track you across other companies' apps and websites. If you say no, the advertising identifier is not shared, and you still see ads that are not based on tracking. You can change this in Settings, Privacy & Security, Tracking.
- On Android, you can reset or delete the advertising ID in your device settings.
- The Remove ads purchase turns off the ads between levels and lets you revive without watching an ad. From the next launch, Pinhole does not load ads or ask for ad consent at all.
Purchases
The Remove ads purchase is handled by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play). Pinhole never sees your payment details. The game only asks the store whether you own Remove ads, and remembers the answer on your device. Restore purchases in the menu asks the store again.
What stays on your device
Pinhole saves your level progress, best times, stars, your sound and haptics settings and whether you bought Remove ads in the app's own storage on your device. The developer does not receive this data. Deleting the app deletes it. If your device backs up app data to iCloud or Google, that backup is handled by Apple or Google under their own policies.
What Pinhole does not do
Pinhole has no accounts or sign-in. It does not ask for your precise location, contacts, photos, camera or microphone. The developer does not sell your data and does not run analytics of its own.
Children
Pinhole is not directed at children under 13. Ads are limited to content suitable for general audiences.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted at this address with a new effective date.
