Privacy Policy

Swarmlight · Last updated 28 August 2026

The short version. Swarmlight has no accounts, no sign-in and no servers. We do not collect, store, or transmit anything about you. Your progress lives on your own device and nowhere else.

The app does show ads, and the advertising service we use — Google AdMob — collects data about your device in order to do that. That is the only data collection in the app, and you can limit it.

Swarmlight (“Swarmlight”, “the app”) is developed by Rohit Gupta. This policy explains what the app collects, who it goes to, and what you can do about it.

What stays on your device

Your progress — how far you have got and any scores or records the game keeps.
Your settings — sound, music and other in-app preferences.

All of it is stored locally using your device’s standard app storage. It is not uploaded, not backed up to us, and not readable by us. There is no account to create and nothing to sign in to. Deleting the app deletes it.

What Google AdMob collects

The app displays ads through Google AdMob. To select and measure ads, Google and its advertising partners may collect and process:

Device advertising identifiers — the Advertising ID on Android, the IDFA on iOS
Device and technical information — device model, operating system version, language, coarse region, network type
Ad interaction data — that an ad was shown, viewed, or tapped
Approximate location, derived from your IP address

We do not receive this data individually. We see only aggregate reporting, such as how many ads were shown.

Google’s own policy governs how it handles this data: How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

What you control

Consent (EEA, UK and some US states). Where the law requires it, the app shows Google’s consent form the first time you open it, before any ad is requested. Your answer is stored on your device. The app has no screen for reopening that form — to answer it again, clear the app’s data or reinstall it, and the form appears on the next launch. The device controls below apply whichever way you answered.
Tracking (iOS). iOS asks whether Swarmlight may track you across other companies’ apps and websites. Saying no means you still see ads, but they are not personalised. You can change it in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
Advertising ID (Android). You can reset or delete it in Android Settings → Privacy → Ads.

The game plays identically whichever choices you make. Nothing is gated behind consent or tracking.

Data we share, sell, or retain

We share nothing, because we hold nothing. We do not sell personal data. We run no servers, so there is nothing for us to retain or to breach.

Data collected by Google AdMob is retained under Google’s policy, linked above.

Children

Swarmlight is a general-audience game. It is not directed at children under 13 (or the equivalent age in your region), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes

If this policy changes, the “Last updated” date above changes with it, and the new version appears at this address.
