01Overview
Word Diorama ("the app") is a single-player word puzzle game published by evmedia for Android. You connect letters on a wheel to fill a crossword grid, and collect items for illustrated dioramas as you progress.
The short version: the app has no accounts, no sign-in, no chat and no online multiplayer. It shows ads through Google AdMob (a banner at the bottom of the game screen, occasional full-screen ads between levels, and optional "watch a video" rewards) and may offer optional in-app purchases through Google Play. Your progress and settings are saved only on your own device.
02What we collect
We run no servers of our own. The only data that leaves your device is handled by the Google services below.
| Category | Examples |
|---|---|
| Collected by Google AdMob (to show ads) | Advertising ID, general device and app info (device model, operating system and app version, approximate location derived from the IP address), and ad interaction data (impressions, clicks). Whether ads are personalized depends on your choice in Google's consent form, shown where the law requires it (EEA, UK, some US states), and on your device's ad settings. |
| Handled by Google Play (purchases, if offered) | Payments are processed entirely by Google Play. The app only receives the product ID and a purchase token confirming a purchase, so it can unlock what you bought. We never see your card, name, address or Google account. |
None of this is linked by the app to a name, email address, phone number or any other directly identifying information, because the app has no accounts.
03What we don't collect
- No account creation, sign-in, name, email or phone number
- No contacts, photos, files or camera access
- No precise GPS location
- No microphone access or audio recording: the app only plays music and sound effects
- No payment card details
04What stays on your device
Your level progress, coins, power-ups, collection, daily gift streak, language, sound and music settings, which tips you have seen and which purchases you own (for example "ads removed") are saved locally on your device only, using standard app storage. None of this reaches our servers. Uninstalling the app deletes it.
05App permissions
- INTERNET, ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: load ads (and complete purchases if offered)
- VIBRATE: light haptic feedback while playing
- com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID: lets AdMob read the advertising ID (you can delete it in Android settings)
- com.android.vending.BILLING: Google Play purchases, if offered
The app does not request microphone, camera, contacts, storage or location permissions.
06Third-party services
The app relies on these Google services:
- Google AdMob: serves the banner, full-screen and rewarded ads, together with Google's consent form (User Messaging Platform) where required. Ads are not directed at children.
- Google Play Billing: processes in-app purchases, if offered.
These are operated by Google and subject to Google's own privacy practices:
- Google Privacy Policy: policies.google.com/privacy
- How Google uses data from apps that use its services: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
We don't sell, rent or share any data beyond this.
07Log data and ad information
When ads are shown, or if something goes wrong, our third-party providers (Google AdMob) may automatically collect technical information such as your device's IP address, device model, operating system version, system language, advertising ID, the time and date of use, and ad interaction data (for example how many ads were shown and whether they were viewed or clicked). We do not receive or store this data ourselves.
08Data retention
Data collected by Google AdMob and Google Play is kept according to Google's own retention practices. Locally saved game data stays on your device until you clear the app's storage or uninstall it.
09Children's privacy
Word Diorama is a general-audience game and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because the app has no accounts and no way to enter personal information, this risk is minimal by design. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we'll address it promptly.
10Your choices
- Ad choices: where Google's consent form applies, an "Ad choices" option appears in the app's Settings so you can review or change your consent at any time.
- Reset or opt out of ad personalization from your device's ad settings (Android: Settings → Google → Ads → Delete advertising ID / Opt out of Ads Personalization).
- Reset your local data from Settings → Reset progress, by clearing the app's storage, or by uninstalling it.
- Ask us about your data: since nothing is tied to an identifiable account we generally can't look up "your" data, but you're welcome to reach out with any question.
11Your rights and data deletion
Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR or Turkey's KVKK) you may have the right to:
- learn whether your personal data is processed and request information about it;
- learn the purpose of processing and the third parties it is shared with;
- request correction or deletion of your personal data;
- object to or request restriction of processing, request data portability, and lodge a complaint with your data protection authority.
The game itself keeps no personal data on our side. Data collected by Google for advertising is controlled by Google; you can manage or delete it in your Google account and device ad settings. To make any request, or to ask us to delete data we might hold, email videocliptr@gmail.com and we'll respond promptly.

If this policy changes (for example, if a new feature starts collecting different data) we'll update the "Effective" date at the top of this page and, for material changes, note it in the app's store listing update notes.
