Twin Escapes: Spot the Difference · Effective 2026-10-26 · Published by CFIDEAS TECH LLC

Twin Escapes is a spot-the-difference game for iPhone and iPad. We don't run our own servers, we don't ask you to create an account, and we don't collect your name, email or contacts. This policy explains the small amount of data involved and who handles it.

1. Data stored on your device and in your iCloud

Your progress (scenes played, the differences found in the scene you are playing), postcards, travel miles, hints, album styles, souvenirs and stickers, Today's Visitors stamps and settings are saved on your device. If you're signed in to iCloud, a copy of your cleared scenes, postcards, travel miles and hints, album styles, souvenirs and stickers and Today's Visitors stamps is also kept in your own iCloud (Apple's iCloud key-value storage) so it follows you to your other iPhone and comes back after reinstalling; we cannot see it. The scene in progress and the app's settings (sound, language and so on) stay on the device. This data is not sent to us. Deleting the app deletes the copy on this device.

2. Purchases

The optional Ad-Free purchase and hint packs are processed by Apple through the App Store. We never see your payment details. The game keeps the Apple transaction number of each purchase on your device so it is credited exactly once. See Apple's privacy policy.

3. Advertising

Twin Escapes is free and shows ads through Google AdMob (Google Mobile Ads SDK): an occasional full-screen ad at a natural pause between scenes (never during the first 10 scenes or in the middle of a scene), and reward videos that you choose to watch. To show and measure ads, Google may collect the following data from your device:

Tracking is your choice. iOS asks whether Twin Escapes may track you. If you choose “Ask App Not to Track”, the game plays exactly the same and you won't see more ads; ads just won't be personalized. You can change this any time in iPhone or iPad Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.

Players in the EEA, UK and Switzerland are asked for consent through Google's consent message before personalized ads are shown, and can change their choice later in the game under Settings › Privacy › Privacy choices.

Reward videos are always optional and clearly labelled. If you buy Ad-Free, the game stops requesting ads: interstitials are removed and the rewards that used to need a video are given directly.

Google's use of this data is covered by Google's Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from apps that use its services.

4. Anonymous usage statistics and crash reports

To understand which scenes are too hard or too easy, Twin Escapes sends anonymous gameplay events to Google Analytics for Firebase: for example that a scene was started or completed, which difference was found after how many seconds, how many misses and hints there were, whether a reward video was watched to the end, which postcards and album styles were collected, Today's Visitors stars, and which first-launch steps were shown. These events carry no name, email, contacts, purchase details or advertising identifier (IDFA), and we do not use them to track you across apps or websites. Firebase assigns a random app-instance ID to tell installations apart; it is reset if you delete the app. If the app crashes, Firebase Crashlytics sends a crash report with the device model, OS version and the state of the app at the time, so we can fix the problem. You can turn both off at any time in Settings › Privacy › Share anonymous usage data. Where the GDPR applies (the EEA, the UK and Switzerland), they are only collected after you agree in the privacy choices shown at first launch. Google processes this data under the Google Privacy Policy.

5. Downloaded scenes

The app comes with its first 100 scenes built in. Scenes added in later chapters will be downloaded in the background from our content host (Cloudflare) before you reach them, and stay on your device so you can play them offline. As with any download, the host's servers see your IP address in order to deliver the files. No account, identifier or gameplay data is sent with these downloads.

6. Children

Twin Escapes is a general-audience game and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the game, contact us and we will help.

7. Your rights

Because we don't hold personal data on our own servers, most requests are handled directly on your device (deleting the app, turning off usage data, changing tracking or consent settings). For requests about data collected by Google for ads or statistics, see Google's privacy controls. You can always contact us with questions.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising beyond the ad serving described above, which you control with the tracking and consent settings. California residents can contact us about their rights under the CCPA.

8. Changes

If this policy changes, we'll update it on this page and change the effective date above. Significant changes will also be noted in the app's update notes.
