Privacy Policy for Brain Tease Math

Effective Date: 04/10/2026 Company: Enlightened Value Entertainment LLC

Brain Tease Math ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal data of all users, including children. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you use the Brain Tease Math mobile application (the "App").

This policy is designed to comply with applicable laws and platform requirements, including the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and Apple App Store Review Guidelines.

1. Information We Collect

We collect limited data necessary to provide and improve the App.

A. Information Collected Automatically

• Device-generated anonymous user ID — a random identifier created on your device the first time you open the App. This is not linked to your name, email, or any external account.
• Gameplay data — scores, progress, accuracy, and history for each game mode played
• App usage data — game modes played and session activity
• Push notification token — collected only if you grant notification permission, used solely to send optional trial expiry reminders
• Device type and basic technical information — used only for compatibility and troubleshooting

B. Information Provided by Users (All Optional)

• Nickname — an optional display name you may set at any time; does not need to be a real name
• Classroom code — a code entered to join a teacher-created classroom session
• Email address and password — only collected from users who choose to create a named subscriber account; anonymous play requires neither

C. Teacher Accounts

For teacher accounts, we collect:

• Email address and password (for account access)
• Classroom session data (classroom name, connected students, student performance during sessions)

2. How Classroom Data Is Stored

When a classroom session is active, the following data is transmitted to and stored on our secure backend servers (not solely on your device):

• Teacher name and classroom name
• The list of students connected to the session (identified by anonymous ID and chosen nickname)
• Real-time gameplay data during sessions — including current score, timer, and answers submitted — so teachers can monitor student progress live
• Student score history associated with a classroom

This server-side data is used exclusively for classroom functionality and is deleted or anonymized when no longer needed for that purpose. We do not retain real-time spectate data beyond the active session.

3. How We Use Information

We use collected data to:

• Provide and operate the App's features
• Track student progress and performance
• Enable teacher dashboards and classroom functionality
• Send optional notifications (e.g., trial expiry reminders) if you have opted in
• Improve gameplay experience and difficulty balancing
• Maintain app functionality and security

We do not use data for advertising or behavioral tracking.

4. Children's Privacy

Brain Tease Math is designed for educational use, including children under 13.

• We do not collect personally identifiable information from children
• Student data is limited to anonymous identifiers, chosen nicknames, and performance data
• Students are not required to create an account, provide an email address, or provide any personal information to use the App

Where the App is used in a classroom setting:

• Teachers or schools act as data controllers for student usage within their classroom
• Data is used solely for educational purposes

If we become aware that personal information from a child has been collected unintentionally, we will delete it promptly.

5. Classroom & Teacher Features

When a student joins a classroom using a code:

• Their anonymous profile is linked to the teacher's active session
• Teachers can view:
  • Scores and performance history
  • Progress across game modes
  • Live game activity during active sessions (score, timer, current answers)

Teachers cannot access personal identity information unless a student has voluntarily set a nickname. All student identifiers are anonymous by default.

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade user data.

We may share limited data only:

• With named third-party service providers necessary to operate the App (see Section 10)
• When required by law or legal process

All third-party services are required to protect user data at a level consistent with this policy.

7. Data Retention

We retain data only as long as necessary to:

• Provide the App's services
• Maintain progress tracking
• Comply with legal obligations

Active classroom session data (real-time spectate) is not retained after a session ends. Users or schools may request deletion of stored data at any time by contacting us (see Section 12).

8. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational safeguards to protect data against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. Backend server data is stored in an encrypted, access-controlled database.

However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. User Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to:

• Access your data
• Request correction or deletion
• Withdraw consent to data usage (including revoking notification permission at any time via device settings)

Requests can be made by contacting us (see Section 12).

10. Subscriptions & Payments

Subscriptions are managed through:

• Apple App Store (iOS in-app purchases)
• Google Play Store (Android in-app purchases)
• Stripe (web-based checkout for direct subscriptions)

We do not directly collect or store payment card information. Payment processing is handled by the respective platform or by Stripe, Inc. Stripe may collect and process billing information, email address, and transaction data in accordance with Stripe's Privacy Policy.

11. Third-Party Services

The App uses the following third-party services to operate:

These services do not use your data for advertising and are contractually required to protect it.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Users will be notified of significant changes through:

• App updates
• In-app notifications
