laishaAndroid v1.0
The Android app (win.jxdc.tidearchive) contains the game and its music. Puzzle progress, saved dates, moves, hint and undo usage, tutorial settings and music preferences stay in the app on your device. It does not send these game records to a game server. There is no in-game account, advertising, analytics service or in-app purchase system in this version. It is intended for adult puzzle players.
An internet connection and Google Play are required at launch. The app sends an HTTPS request to a Google connectivity service, which receives the source IP address and standard connection information. A new temporary random value is used for each check; the request does not contain your game progress or music preferences. This connection check is required for the app to start.
Google Play then checks for available app updates. Google's in-app update documentation lists device metadata, the application version, and installed modules and asset packs as information used to check availability and download size. Google states that this information is encrypted, is not transferred to third parties, and is deleted after a fixed retention period. Google Play handles this processing in its own processes under the Google Play Terms of Service and Google Privacy Policy. Installing an update requires your confirmation.
Local records remain until you clear the app's storage or uninstall it. App updates preserve the existing save. Android backup and device-transfer settings may include app data; those system features are controlled by your device settings and service provider. To reset local records, use Android Settings to clear Tide Archive's storage. Google manages the retention of connection and update information. For questions or support, contact support@jxdc.win; please do not send passwords or other sensitive information.
Android v2.0
Version 2.0 brings the courtyard game and online daily challenges to the same Android app. It is intended for adult puzzle players. The product page provides the current APK and Google Play link; this information also applies to the v2.0 test app.
Game records and connections
The app keeps preferences, a device-based player identity, current game state and pending help receipts in private app storage. It does not require an email address or password to play. The service uses that player identity to store challenge dates, accepted moves, completion and timing records, help allowances and reward receipts. These records keep daily results consistent and prevent help from being granted or spent twice.
An internet connection is required at launch to check the release policy and the current daily challenge. Online help and reward confirmation also need a connection. The service runs on Cloudflare, which processes IP addresses and request information to deliver and protect it. A country or region may be suggested from network location. The app does not request precise GPS location.
If you choose a display name or region, they may appear with your results on a leaderboard. Choose information you are comfortable making public.
Sharing a challenge
To claim free help, you choose to share a challenge picture and link. The app prepares a PNG picture and text with the link, then opens the Android system share panel. The help is claimed when that panel opens successfully, even if you later cancel. If the panel cannot open, no help is claimed. It does not automatically publish to a social account. The service stores the share link and reward receipts needed to grant help once and enforce the daily limit. If you send the content through another app, that app handles it under its own privacy policy.
Optional rewarded ads and privacy choices
Version 2.0 integrates Google AdMob rewarded ads for additional help. Watching an ad is optional. Optional rewarded ads are enabled for Android v2.0. Availability depends on regional consent requirements, connectivity and ad supply. Rewarded ads, when available, follow the free sharing allowance and are limited to two opportunities per attempt across Undo and Hint. Google and its partners may process device or advertising identifiers, IP-based location, app and ad interactions, and diagnostic information to provide ads, measure performance and prevent abuse.
Google's consent tools provide the choices required for your region. When available, you can reopen Ad privacy choices from the game menu. Advertising consent is separate from optional game diagnostics. See how Google uses information from apps that use its services and the Google Privacy Policy for Google's processing and retention.
Optional game diagnostics
Optional diagnostics are off by default. You can enable them in the menu to share statistics from future app launches: startup and update-check outcomes, when the board becomes playable, and confirmed app version upgrades. These events include timestamps, app version, installation source when known, a launch identifier and the game's player identifier. They do not include advertising identifiers, email addresses, precise location, game moves or the text of errors.
Turning diagnostics off stops new collection and retries and clears queued events on the device. Queued events older than seven days are discarded before upload. During regular request processing, the service deletes raw events older than 30 days and daily counts and return-visit measurements outside the most recent 90 UTC days. A participation flag remains with the player record so an old installation is not counted as new after detailed statistics expire. Turning diagnostics off does not delete records already received.
Retention and requests
Local information remains until the app updates it, you clear app storage or uninstall it. App-data cloud backup and device-transfer backup are disabled in v2.0. Clearing local storage does not delete online challenge or reward records. Online game records are kept as needed to operate challenges, maintain results, settle pending help and prevent abuse.
Contact support@jxdc.win to ask about your information or request a correction. Deletion requests must be sent by email; follow our deletion request instructions. The developer reviews requests personally and manually deletes the relevant records if approved. We keep a record of the request, the decision and the action taken. We may need enough information to locate your player records and verify the request. Do not send passwords, installation credentials or session tokens.
Browser: progress and preferences on your device
The browser stores your game progress and preferences, such as music and tutorial settings. It may also cache game files so that repeat visits can load them locally. Clearing browser data, using private browsing or changing browsers can remove or separate that local information.
The game does not require you to supply an email address or password to start playing. It uses a browser session to associate online records with your player identity. This includes a session cookie used by the game service.
Browser: online challenge records
To operate daily challenges, synchronize accepted moves and keep results consistent, the service stores information including your player identifier, challenge date, round, accepted moves, completion and timing records, and help allowances. Sharing and rewarded-help records, where applicable, allow the service to avoid granting or spending the same help twice.
The service runs on Cloudflare. Network and request information is processed to deliver and protect it. A connection warning means some local changes or online features may not yet be synchronized.
Browser: player profile and leaderboards
If you set a display name or country/region, that information can appear with your game results on the relevant leaderboard. An approximate region may be suggested using network location information; you can choose your affiliation in the profile settings. The game does not require access to precise GPS location.
Choose a display name you are comfortable showing publicly. Please do not put private contact details or other sensitive information in it.
Browser: sharing a challenge
If you choose to share, the browser prepares a challenge picture and link. Depending on device support, it opens the system share interface or copies a picture and text to your clipboard. It does not automatically publish to a social account.
The share service stores the records needed to issue a link and award any corresponding help. Visits through share links may be recorded to understand whether the links are used. If you send the content through another app, that app handles it under its own privacy policy.
Browser: advertising status
Live Google advertising is not currently enabled on the production game at ta.jxdc.win. We plan to offer optional rewarded ads only inside that browser game, for additional Undo or Hint help, after approval. The company, guide and support pages on jxdc.win do not display Google ads. The game should explain the reward before you choose to watch.
Where Google ads are enabled in the future, Google and its partners may use cookies, IP addresses or other identifiers for advertising, measurement and abuse prevention. The applicable consent choices and privacy information will be provided before that rollout. See how Google uses information from sites and apps that use its services.
Browser: retention and requests
Local records remain in the browser until the game updates them or you clear them. Online records are retained as needed to operate challenges, maintain results, resolve pending help operations and protect against abuse. Some temporary records expire automatically. Clearing browser storage does not by itself delete records already held by the online service.
Contact support@jxdc.win if you have a question about your information or want a correction. Deletion requests must be sent by email; follow our deletion request instructions. The developer reviews requests personally and manually deletes the relevant records if approved. We keep a record of the request, the decision and the action taken. We may need enough information to locate the relevant records and verify the request. Do not email passwords, installation credentials or session tokens.
