This policy describes how Tube Sort
(App Store: Nova Tube Sort,
com.novaarcade.tubesort) handles information on
Google Play and the Apple App Store. The game is published by
NovaArcade. It does not require an account and does not operate a
player-profile server.
What stays on your device
Level progress, settings (music, haptics, themes, Zen Mode), gem balance, daily-challenge medals, and purchase flags such as “ads removed” or Starter Pack are stored only on this device. Uninstalling the app deletes that local data. We cannot remotely retrieve or delete a player’s board state.
Advertising
If you have not purchased Remove Ads or Starter Pack, the game may show banner, interstitial, and rewarded ads through Google AdMob.
On iPhone, Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt may appear. You can tap Ask App Not to Track. The puzzle stays fully playable either way. If you allow tracking, AdMob may use the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) to personalize ads. If you decline, ads may still appear in a non-personalized form.
Advertising partners may collect device advertising identifiers, coarse device and app information, and ad interaction data under their own policies. See Google’s privacy policy.
You can hide banners and interstitials with a one-time in-app purchase. Rewarded ads used as an optional hint or undo are not required to finish levels; gems or skipping are alternatives.
In-app purchases
Purchases are processed by Apple (App Store / StoreKit) or Google (Play Billing), not by NovaArcade servers. Apple or Google may collect payment details under their terms.
Restore Purchases (Settings → Shop) re-grants non-consumable items
(remove_ads, starter_pack) on the same
store account. gem_pack_100 is a consumable gem pack.
Analytics
Tube Sort does not send gameplay analytics to NovaArcade or to a third-party analytics product. Debug builds may print events to the device log only. If that changes, this policy will be updated before the change ships.
Children
Tube Sort is a casual puzzle with optional ads and in-app purchases. It is not directed at children under 13. Parents can use device-level purchase and tracking controls (Screen Time, Family Sharing, or Play Family).

Changes
We may update this policy when ads, purchases, or platform rules change. The “Last updated” date at the top will change. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised policy.
