Brick/Shift Privacy Policy
Last updated: 15 November 2026
Brick/Shift ("the game") is made by Soboya. Soboya is the trading name of Jozsef Csukran, an individual developer (sole trader) based in London, United Kingdom ("we", "us"). We are the controller of the personal data described here. This policy explains what information the game collects, why, and what choices you have.

1. Information we collect
Player identifier. When you start the game it signs you in automatically with an anonymous identifier created by Unity Authentication. It does not contain your name or email address. It lets us save your progress.
Unity account (optional). If you choose to connect a Unity Player Account, Unity tells the game that you signed in and gives it an identifier for your account, so your progress can follow you to another device. We do not receive your password.
Game progress. Your scores, ShiftCubes, purchased and unlocked items, completed levels and settings are saved on your device and in Unity Cloud Save.
Leaderboard. Your best score and your leaderboard name are shown to other players in the game's leaderboard.
Purchases. In-app purchases are handled by Google Play or the Apple App Store. We receive confirmation that a purchase was made and which item it was. We never receive your card or payment details.
Advertising. The game shows ads through Unity LevelPlay and the ad networks connected to it: ironSource Ads and Unity Ads. To show and measure ads these partners may collect your device's advertising identifier, IP address, device model, operating system, language, approximate location derived from your IP address, and information about the ads you see or interact with.
Diagnostics. Unity collects technical data needed to run its services, such as crash information and device and engine configuration.
What we do not collect. The game does not ask for your real name, email address, phone number, contacts, photos, microphone, camera or precise location, and it does not request those device permissions. The game does not use analytics tools such as Google Analytics.
2. Why we use this information and our legal bases
- To run the game and keep your progress (performance of our agreement with you).
- To show the leaderboard (performance of our agreement with you).
- To provide purchases and restore them (performance of our agreement with you; legal obligations).
- To keep the game stable and fix errors (our legitimate interests).
- To show ads. Personalised ads are shown only with your consent where the law requires it; otherwise you see non-personalised ads (consent; our legitimate interests for non-personalised ads).
3. Who we share information with
We do not sell your personal information. The game relies on these service providers, each of which processes data under its own privacy policy:
- Unity Technologies (Authentication, Cloud Save, Leaderboards, In-App Purchasing, LevelPlay, diagnostics): https://unity.com/legal/privacy-policy
- Google Play or Apple App Store (purchases and distribution).
- Advertising partners connected through LevelPlay: ironSource Ads (https://www.is.com/privacy-policy/) and Unity Ads (https://unity.com/legal/privacy-policy).
Some of these providers process data outside the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area. Where they do, they rely on safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
4. Your choices and rights
- Ads. You can reset your advertising identifier or turn off ad personalisation in your device settings (Android: Settings > Google > Ads; iOS: Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking). The game is currently available to invited testers only. Before its public release, players in the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area will be asked in the game whether they agree to personalised ads, and will be able to change that choice in Settings.
- Delete your data. Use Settings > Delete Account in the game. This deletes your player account, cloud save and leaderboard entry, and the save on your device. You can also ask us by email.
- Other rights. Depending on where you live you may have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to the processing of your personal data, to data portability, and to withdraw consent. Contact us to use these rights. You can complain to your data protection authority; in the UK this is the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
5. How long we keep information
We keep your progress and leaderboard entry for as long as you have an account in the game. If you delete your account they are deleted. Our service providers keep their own records according to their policies.
6. Children
The game is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
7. Spending and healthy play
All in-game purchases are optional. We encourage you to keep an eye on your spending and to take regular breaks. If you or someone you know shows signs of problem gaming or spending, consider speaking to a professional.
8. Security
We rely on our service providers' security measures and send data over encrypted connections. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
9. Changes to this policy
When we change this policy we update the date at the top and, for important changes, tell you in the game.
