1. Scope and contact
This is NodeLume’s central Privacy Policy for nodelume.ai, our support communications, and the products described below. The game-specific sections currently cover Sudoku Toodle and Flavor Trek. Other games in development will receive their own sections when their practices are ready to be described.
NodeLume is responsible for the personal information it receives and the processing it determines. For privacy questions or requests, contact help@nodelume.ai. For company inquiries, contact hello@nodelume.ai.
Practices differ by product. A local-only game does not inherit the advertising or account features of another product. Product-specific notices provide additional detail for that product and do not extend its data collection to other products.
2. Website and communications
The company pages at nodelume.ai do not include a visitor analytics tag or advertising cookies. Cloudflare provides hosting and security and may process request information such as IP address, browser information, requested URL, date and time, and security events to deliver and protect the website. See Cloudflare’s Privacy Policy.
If you email us, we receive your email address, any name you provide, your message, and attachments. We use these to respond, troubleshoot, and manage the request. Please share only what is needed and remove passwords, payment details, and unrelated personal information from screenshots or files.
Visiting the company website does not create a game account or upload your game saves or photos. Product pages, subdomains, and the Chrome checkout hosted at nodelume.ai/checkout have the additional practices described in the Chrome section.
3. Sudoku Toodle
Offline play. No account, advertisements, usage analytics, or tracking in the game. Sudoku Toodle keeps games, best times, language, and audio preferences in the application’s local storage. It does not send these records to NodeLume or other players.
Optional photos and camera
You may choose photos or use the camera to make a custom theme. Access is optional; the built-in themes work without it. Selected images are resized on your device and saved as one custom photo set. The game does not upload them to NodeLume. You can manage camera and photo access through your device’s app permissions.
Deleting local information
In Customize, use Remove to delete the saved photo set. Games and preferences remain until replaced or until you delete the app’s data. On iOS, Delete App removes local app data, while Offload App preserves it. Device backups may retain copies according to your system settings. NodeLume cannot retrieve or erase local records remotely.
If you contact support, the information you send is handled separately under the communications section above. Sending an email does not grant access to your local game data.
4. Flavor Trek
Flavor Trek stores progress, completed levels, scores, stars, lives and refill timers, in-game coins, items, characters, reward timers, language, and sound preferences on your device. The game does not require a player account. These local save files are separate from the advertising and analytics data described below.
Advertising through Google AdMob
The game includes interstitial advertisements and rewarded videos that can provide in-game benefits, such as lives or additional coins. Google’s advertising SDK may process IP addresses, approximate location inferred from an IP address, device or advertising identifiers, ad interactions, and diagnostic information to deliver and measure ads and prevent fraud. Processing depends on the SDK version, platform, permissions, and applicable settings. See Google’s Privacy Policy.
Google Analytics for Firebase
Flavor Trek uses Firebase Analytics to measure app openings, level starts, level completions, and level failures. These events include the level number and, for completions, the score. The SDK may also collect app-instance identifiers, device and app information, and usage information. NodeLume uses this measurement to understand game performance and improve the experience. See Firebase’s privacy information.
Your controls and deletion
You can manage available advertising and tracking permissions in your device settings. Those controls may limit particular identifiers; they do not necessarily stop all advertising or analytics requests. The game currently has no separate in-game analytics switch. Watching a rewarded video is a gameplay choice and does not by itself constitute consent to all data processing.
Resetting progress in Settings clears game progress and rewards while keeping language and sound preferences. Removing the app’s data clears local saves, subject to operating-system backup behavior. Resetting progress or uninstalling does not automatically erase information already processed by Google. Contact help@nodelume.ai for questions or requests about that processing.
5. NodeLume for Chrome
The Chrome extension keeps application captures and recordings in browser storage. NodeLume does not receive these local captures unless you choose to send material to support. Exporting or sharing a capture is your decision and is also subject to the recipient’s practices.
Optional account features process Google sign-in profile information, account and installation records, and subscription fulfillment information. Paddle processes checkout as Merchant of Record; NodeLume receives billing and subscription records and payment webhook payloads, but not complete payment-card details.
The Chrome product website and its checkout use Google website measurement with a Privacy choices control. This is separate from the company pages and game data. The detailed Chrome Privacy Policy explains consent behavior, campaign attribution, storage, permissions, providers, retention, and Chrome Web Store Limited Use commitments. See also Paddle’s Privacy Notice.
6. Purposes and legal bases
Where data protection law requires a legal basis, we process information to provide requested services and support, meet legal obligations, or pursue legitimate interests such as security and service improvement where permitted and balanced against your rights. Optional processing that requires consent must rely on consent; merely reading this policy or using a product does not replace a required consent choice.
Advertising and analytics apply only to the products and pages that include them. Device-local processing does not imply that NodeLume receives the information.
8. Retention and security
Local game information follows the deletion controls above and your device’s backup settings. Support messages are retained for handling the request, relevant follow-up, and applicable legal or recordkeeping needs. Information received for accounts, payments, security, or legal obligations is retained as needed for those purposes. Provider-managed records are also subject to the provider’s retention settings and obligations; there is no single retention period for every product.
We use reasonable safeguards appropriate to the information we handle. No system can guarantee absolute security. Protect your device and backups, and avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information to support.
9. Your privacy rights
Depending on applicable law, you may request confirmation of processing, access, correction, deletion, portability, information about sharing, restriction or objection, and withdrawal of consent. These rights may be subject to legal exceptions. Withdrawal does not affect lawful processing before withdrawal.
Send requests to help@nodelume.ai and identify the product and request. We may ask for proportionate information to verify identity and locate records. Do not send identity documents unless needed and requested. For information stored only on your device, use the product or system deletion controls; we do not hold a remote copy.
You may also complain to the competent data protection authority, including Brazil’s ANPD where applicable. Brazilian privacy rights are described in the Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD).
10. Children and families
Parents and guardians should review the product’s store age rating, permissions, and advertising practices before allowing a child to play. Sudoku Toodle processes custom photos locally. Flavor Trek includes third-party ads and analytics, as described above. A game’s visual style is not a statement that it is intended for young children.
If you believe a child’s information has been provided to us inappropriately, contact help@nodelume.ai so we can investigate and take appropriate action. Children’s information is subject to the additional protections required by applicable law.
11. Changes to this policy
We will update this page as products or data practices change and revise the date above. Material changes will receive any additional notice or consent required by law. New game sections will describe that game’s practices rather than assume all NodeLume games work the same way.
