Tejo Blast

Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 7, 2026 · Last updated: November 9, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you play Tejo Blast (the “Game”) on Android (Google Play) or iOS (Apple App Store), or visit tejoblast.com (the “Website”), how it is used and shared, and the choices and rights you have. The Game and Website are published by Thomas Marchozzi Financial Planning, Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our”), which appears on Google Play under the developer name “Tejo Blast Games” and on the App Store under its company name.

1. Summary

• No accounts. Tejo Blast does not ask you to create an account, and we do not ask for your name, email, phone number or precise location in the Game.
• Your progress stays on your device. Game progress, scores and settings are saved locally on your phone. We do not run our own servers that store your gameplay data.
• Age screen. At first launch a neutral age screen asks for birth month and year. Only the resulting age group (under 13, 13–15, or 16 and older) is stored on your device; the birth month and year are not saved.
• No ads for players under 16. In versions of the Game with advertising enabled, if the age answer is missing, under 13, or 13–15, the Game does not start Google’s advertising software and does not request any ad.
• Ads for players 16 and older are served by Google AdMob, only after Google’s consent tool (UMP) allows ads to be requested: occasional full-screen (interstitial) ads between matches and optional rewarded ads you choose to watch (for example, 40 coins). When ads are requested, Google’s software collects device, app and ad-related data as described in Section 3.2. On iOS, ad requests are non-personalized only; the Game does not show Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt and does not use the IDFA.
• Purchases are processed by Google Play Billing (Android) or Apple StoreKit (iOS). We never see your card or bank details.
• Scores and leaderboards stay on your device. The Game does not use Google Play Games Services, Apple Game Center or any online leaderboard.
• No chat, no social features between players, and no separate analytics or crash-reporting tools.

3. Information we collect

3.1 Information stored only on your device

The Game saves your progress, level results, scores and local leaderboards, coins, cosmetic unlocks, settings (such as sound and language), your age group from the age screen, and whether you have bought “Remove Ads” in local storage on your device. The birth month and year entered on the age screen are not saved. This information is not sent to us. On some devices, your operating system’s own backup feature (for example, Android backup or iCloud device backup) may include app data under your settings with Google or Apple; that is controlled by you and by those companies, not by us.

3.2 Advertising: Google AdMob

Who sees ads. In versions of the Game with advertising enabled — Android 0.9.65 (versionCode 86) and later, and iOS 0.9.65 (build 13) and later — ads are shown only to players whose age group is 16 and older. If the age answer is missing, under 13, or 13–15, the Game does not start the Google Mobile Ads SDK and does not request any interstitial or rewarded ad, so the ads SDK does not collect data for those players. For players 16 and older, the Game first runs Google’s consent tool (the User Messaging Platform, for the EEA, UK and Switzerland and wherever else Google shows it) and requests ads only after that tool reports that ads may be requested.

Kinds of ads. Interstitial ads are full-screen ads shown occasionally between matches, never during a throw. Rewarded ads are optional: you choose to watch one for an in-game reward, such as 40 coins, and the reward is granted once, only when Google’s software reports that the reward was earned. If the ad does not load or Google does not report an earned reward, no reward is granted. There are no banner ads.

What Google’s software collects. When the Game requests or shows an ad, the Google Mobile Ads SDK in the Game collects and sends to Google information such as:

• Identifiers — on Android, the resettable Advertising ID where the Game allows advertising-ID use for personalized ads; on iOS, app-specific identifiers such as the Identifier for Vendors (IDFV). The Game does not request the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) and does not show Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt. Google’s disclosures may describe additional device or advertising identifiers its software can read.
• Device information — such as device make and model, operating system and version, screen size, language, time zone, network type and mobile carrier.
• Approximate location — derived from your IP address (for example, country or city level). The Game does not request GPS or precise location permission.
• App and ad interaction data — such as the app’s name and version, ad requests, ads shown, taps, and whether a rewarded ad’s reward was earned.
• Diagnostic data — such as ad-loading performance and errors, used to keep ads working and to detect fraud.

Google uses this information to deliver and measure ads, limit how often you see the same ad, and prevent fraud and abuse, and may share it within Google for advertising, analytics and fraud prevention as described in Google’s policies. On Android, when Google’s consent tool reports that a consent message is not required in the player’s region, the Game may request personalized ads; when a consent message applies (for example in the EEA, UK or Switzerland), the Game omits a forced non-personalized flag after consent is obtained and lets Google apply the stored choice. On iOS, every ad request includes the non-personalized flag (npa=1), including after the consent message, and the Game never shows Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt. Even for non-personalized ads, Google may use the information above for purposes such as measurement, frequency capping and fraud prevention. Google acts as an independent controller of the data it collects. Learn more in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services, How Google uses advertising data and the Google Privacy Policy.

Earlier versions. iOS builds released before advertising was enabled did not include or start Google’s advertising software and showed no ads. Android builds before the under-16 ads gate could initialize the ads SDK for younger players; please update to the latest version from Google Play or the App Store.

The Game does not use ad mediation and does not request ads from any ad network other than Google AdMob. If we add one, we will name it in this policy before it is used.

3.3 In-app purchases: Google Play Billing and Apple StoreKit

The Game offers optional in-app purchases: a one-time “Remove Ads” purchase and coin packs. Payments are handled entirely by Google Play (Google Play Billing) on Android or by Apple (StoreKit / App Store) on iOS. We never receive your name, card number or billing address. To deliver and restore what you bought, the Game receives limited transaction information from the store on your device, such as the product purchased, an order or transaction identifier, a purchase token, the date and time, and the purchase status, and checks it there; this information is not sent to us or to any server of ours. Google and Apple also provide us with sales reports that we use for accounting and tax purposes. See the Google Payments Privacy Notice and the Apple Privacy Policy.

3.4 Scores and leaderboards

Your scores, stars and leaderboards (for example, for the Daily Challenge, the campaign and Challenges) are stored only on your device. The Game does not use Google Play Games Services, Apple Game Center or any other online leaderboard or sign-in, and your scores are not sent to us, to Google, to Apple or to other players.

3.5 Analytics and crash reporting

The Game does not include any separate analytics or crash-reporting software (such as Firebase Analytics or Crashlytics), and we do not track your gameplay behavior on our own servers. Google Play and Apple may provide us with aggregated or de-identified statistics — such as install counts, ratings, and crash or performance reports from users who allow their device to share diagnostics with developers — under their own policies and your device settings. If we add an analytics or crash-reporting tool in the future, we will update this policy and the store privacy disclosures before doing so.

3.6 When you contact us

If you email us, we receive your email address, the contents of your message and anything you choose to include (such as screenshots or your device model). We use this only to respond to you and to keep a record of the request.

3.7 The Website

tejoblast.com is a simple informational site. It does not use cookies, analytics or advertising trackers, and it has no forms. Our hosting provider (Cloudflare) processes technical data such as IP addresses and request logs as needed to deliver the site and protect it from attacks.

4. What we don’t collect

We do not collect your name, postal address, phone number, contacts, photos, microphone or camera input, precise GPS location, or payment card details. The Game has no user accounts, no chat and no way for players to send messages to each other. We do not use the data described here to make automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you.

5. How we use information, and legal bases

We (and our service providers) use information to:

• provide the Game and deliver and restore purchases (performance of a contract);
• show ads to players 16 and older that keep the Game free, measure them and prevent ad fraud (legitimate interests, or consent where required — for example, in the EEA/UK/Switzerland);
• respond to your messages and requests (legitimate interests);
• keep business, accounting and tax records, and comply with the law (legal obligation);
• keep the Game and Website secure (legitimate interests).

6. How information is shared

We share or make information available only:

• With Google (AdMob, Google Play Billing) and Apple (App Store, StoreKit), as described above;
• With service providers who help us operate, such as our website host and email provider, under obligations to protect the information;
• For legal reasons — if required by law, or to protect rights, safety and security;
• In a business transfer — if the Game is sold or transferred, subject to this policy.

We do not sell personal information for money. However, allowing Google AdMob to use advertising identifiers and device data for personalized ads may be considered “selling” or “sharing” personal information for “cross-context behavioral advertising” under some U.S. state laws, such as California’s. You can opt out as described in Sections 7 and 11. In versions with advertising enabled, the Game does not request ads for players under 16, and we do not sell or share the personal information of players we know are under 16.

7. Your choices and ad controls

• Android advertising ID: you can reset or delete your advertising ID in your device settings (usually Settings > Google > Ads or Settings > Privacy > Ads). If you delete it, apps can no longer use it for personalized ads.
• iOS: the Game requests only non-personalized ads on iOS and does not show Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt. You can manage tracking and ad settings for all apps in your device’s Privacy & Security settings.
• Consent choices: where Google’s consent message is shown to players 16 and older (for example, in the EEA, UK or Switzerland), you can review or change your choice from the privacy options in the Game’s settings.
• Google ad settings: you can manage ad personalization in My Ad Center.
• Players under 16: in versions with advertising enabled, the Game does not request ads for them. Parents can find more choices in Section 10.
• Remove Ads: the “Remove Ads” purchase turns off the interstitial ads that play automatically between matches; optional rewarded ads that you choose to watch may still be offered to players 16 and older.

8. Data retention

• Local game data, including the age group from the age screen, stays on your device until you delete it (see Section 9).
• Gameplay data on our servers: none — we do not operate servers that store your gameplay data.
• Purchase and sales records we receive from Google or Apple are kept as long as needed to provide purchases and to meet accounting and tax requirements (generally up to 7 years).
• Support emails are kept for as long as needed to handle your request, and generally deleted within 2 years after the conversation ends, unless we need to keep them longer for legal reasons.
• Data held by Google or Apple (for example, advertising and store data) is retained under their policies; see How Google retains data.

9. Deleting your data

10. Children’s privacy (COPPA and Google Play Families)

Tejo Blast is a game for a general audience that includes children under 13. We have designed it to protect younger players, consistent with the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and Google Play’s Families policies.

10.1 The age screen

The first time the Game is opened, a neutral age screen asks for the player’s birth month and year. There is no pre-filled answer. Until a birth month and year are confirmed, the Game does not start the ads SDK and does not request ads. The Game uses the answer only to place the player in one of three age groups — under 13, 13–15 or 16 and older — and stores only that age group on the device. The birth month and year are cleared after the age group is computed and are not saved, and neither they nor the age group are sent to us.

10.2 What we do for players under 13

• No personal information collected. We do not collect personal information from players under 13. There are no accounts, no chat, no sign-up forms and no way to share personal information with other players.
• No ads. In versions with advertising enabled, the Game does not start Google’s advertising software and does not request any ad for these players.
• Grown-up check. In-app purchases, the privacy-policy link and the support email are placed behind a grown-up check (a parental gate) designed to be completed by an adult. Purchases are also subject to the parental controls of Google Play or Apple, such as purchase approvals in Google Family Link or Apple’s Ask to Buy.
• No online features. There are no online leaderboards, sign-ins or social features. Scores and leaderboards are kept locally on the device only.

10.3 Teens aged 13–15

In versions with advertising enabled, the Game does not start Google’s advertising software and does not request any ad for players aged 13–15. We do not sell or share their personal information (including for cross-context behavioral advertising or targeted advertising). This is designed to respect the higher age of digital consent (up to 16) in some EEA countries and U.S. state laws such as California’s.

10.4 Players 16 and older

For players who indicate they are 16 or older, ads work as described in Sections 3.2 and 7.

10.5 We don’t knowingly collect children’s personal information

We do not knowingly collect, use or disclose personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have received personal information from a child under 13 (for example, in an email), we will delete it promptly and will not use it for any other purpose.

10.6 Parents’ rights

If you are a parent or guardian, you may at any time ask to review any personal information we hold about your child, ask us to delete it, and refuse to allow any further collection or use. Email us at thomas@tejoblast.com with the subject “Children’s privacy request.” We may ask for reasonable information to confirm that you are the child’s parent or guardian, and we will respond within 30 days. Because the Game does not send us your child’s personal information, in most cases we will hold nothing about them.

You can also delete all game data stored on the device, including the saved age group, by uninstalling the Game or clearing its storage; the age screen will appear again the next time the Game is opened. Data held by Google or Apple can be managed through your child’s account settings with those companies (for example, Google Family Link).

11. Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the rights below. Because we hold very little information about you, most requests can be handled simply. To make a request, email thomas@tejoblast.com. We may need to ask for information to verify your request, and we will respond within the time the law requires (for example, one month under the GDPR or 45 days under the CCPA). We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

EEA, UK and Switzerland (GDPR / UK GDPR)

You have the right to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your personal data; to restrict or object to its processing (including for direct marketing and processing based on legitimate interests); and to withdraw consent at any time without affecting earlier processing. You may also complain to your local data protection authority. In versions with advertising enabled, no ads are requested for players under 16, so their consent to ad personalization is not requested.

California (CCPA/CPRA) and other U.S. states

To the extent these laws apply to us, California residents and residents of other states with similar laws (such as Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia and others) have the right to know what personal information is collected, used and disclosed; to access, correct and delete it; to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information and targeted advertising; and to not be discriminated against for exercising these rights. The categories of personal information involved are: identifiers (such as advertising or app-specific identifiers collected by Google’s advertising software, and IP address), internet or other electronic network activity (ad interactions), approximate geolocation, and commercial information (purchase records). We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for purposes that require a right to limit. To opt out of personalized ads, use the device controls in Section 7; you may also email us. You may use an authorized agent to submit a request. We do not sell or share the personal information of consumers we know are under 16 (see Section 10).

Colombia (Ley 1581 de 2012)

If you are in Colombia, you have the rights of habeas data: to know, update, correct and delete your personal data, to request proof of authorization, to be informed about how it is used, to revoke authorization, and to file complaints with the Superintendencia de Industria y Comercio (SIC).

12. International transfers

We are located in the United States, and Google and Apple process data in the United States and other countries. When personal data from the EEA, UK or Switzerland is transferred, it is protected by appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses or the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, as used by those providers.

13. Security

We use reasonable measures to protect the limited information we hold, and we rely on Google and Apple for secure payment processing. Data sent by the Game’s third-party services is transmitted using encryption. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

14. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy, for example if we add features or services. We will post the updated version here with a new “Last updated” date and, for material changes, give notice in the Game or on the store listing where appropriate.
