The short version
- Nimble Nook does not collect, sell or share any personal information, and nothing from the app reaches our servers.
- The app has no ads, no accounts, no analytics and no tracking, and it does not request internet access.
- Your game progress and settings stay on your device.
This Privacy Policy explains how Encodework Systems LLP, a limited liability partnership registered in India (“Encodework”, “we”, “us”), handles information in connection with the Nimble Nook mobile app for Android (the “App”) and this website (the “Site”). It is published in line with India’s Information Technology Act, 2000, the rules made under it, and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.

1. Information we collect
We do not collect any personal data through the App. Specifically, the App does not collect or transmit:
- your name, email address, phone number or any account details (the App has no sign-in);
- location, contacts, photos, files, camera or microphone data;
- advertising IDs or device identifiers;
- usage analytics, behavioural tracking or crash data sent to us directly.
The App contains no advertising, analytics or tracking software development kits (SDKs), and it does not make network connections.
2. Data stored on your device
To remember your progress, the App saves a small amount of information on your device using Android’s private app storage. This data never leaves your device through the App, and we cannot access it.
| What is saved | Why |
|---|---|
| Levels solved, stars earned and best times for each game | To show your progress and unlock the next level |
| Daily play streak and the last game you played | To show your streak and the “continue playing” card |
| Sound on/off, screen orientation and chosen language | To keep your settings between sessions |
You can delete this data at any time by clearing the App’s storage (Settings → Apps → Nimble Nook → Storage → Clear storage) or by uninstalling the App.
3. Android backup
If you have turned on Android’s backup feature, Android may include the App’s saved progress and settings in your device backup to your Google account, so they can be restored on a new device. Google runs this backup under Google’s Privacy Policy, and we do not receive or access it. You can manage backup in your device settings.
4. Third-party services
The App is distributed through Google Play. When you browse, download or update the App, Google may collect information under its own privacy policy. If you have chosen to share usage and diagnostics with Google, Google may give us aggregated, anonymous statistics such as install counts and crash rates through the Google Play Console. These reports do not identify you.
5. App permissions
The App requests no special permissions. It does not ask for internet, location, contacts, storage, camera or microphone access.
6. Children’s privacy
The App is made for a general audience and is suitable for all ages. Because it collects no personal data from anyone, it collects none from children, and it does no tracking, behavioural monitoring or targeted advertising. If you believe a child has sent us personal data, for example by email, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
7. This website and emails
This Site is a set of static pages. It sets no cookies and uses no analytics or third-party scripts or fonts. The server that hosts it may record standard technical logs (such as IP address, browser type and pages requested) to keep the Site secure and working. These logs are kept only as long as needed for that purpose.
If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to write. We use it only to reply to you and delete it when it is no longer needed.
8. Your rights
Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and other applicable laws (such as the GDPR for users in the EU/UK), you may have the right to access, correct, update or erase your personal data, to withdraw consent, to nominate another person to exercise your rights, and to raise a grievance. Because the App does not collect personal data, there is usually nothing for us to provide or delete. Your in-app data is fully in your control on your device. For anything you have sent us by email, contact us and we will help.
We do not sell personal data or use it for targeted advertising.
9. Security
Your progress is kept in the App’s private storage, which other apps on your device cannot read. Using a screen lock on your device helps protect it further.
10. Changes to this policy
If we change how the App handles information, we will update this policy and its effective date. If a change is significant, for example if a future version begins collecting any data, we will tell you clearly in the App or on this Site before it takes effect.
11. Grievance Officer and contact
For any question, request or complaint about this policy or your data, please contact our Grievance Officer. We will acknowledge your message within 24 hours and aim to resolve it within 15 days.
