A / Stored on deviceLockstep game data stays local
Lockstep does not require an account. Information stored locally may include:
- normal game progress and puzzle state;
- streaks and settings;
- Hint and Undo balances; and
- the app’s own local gameplay and monetization event buffer.
Artificial Luck does not operate a remote database for normal Lockstep gameplay records. Embedded advertising, consent, and purchasing services process information separately from these local records.
B / Third-party servicesSome providers process their own data
Google Mobile Ads and UMP may process device identifiers, coarse location, performance data, and product interaction as described in their SDK disclosures and subject to applicable consent and platform controls.
Apple and Google may process purchase, transaction, and entitlement information for the lifetime Remove Ads purchase. Those records are governed by each provider’s retention practices, privacy terms, and available controls.
On Android, Unity In-App Purchasing also processes purchase events, transaction and receipt information, installation or session identifiers, device information, and technical diagnostics. Uninstalling Lockstep does not automatically delete information held by Google, Apple, or Unity.
