Napbeam · Last updated: 12 November 2026 · Türkçe
Napbeam is a puzzle game. You don't need to create an account or give us your name or email address to play. This page explains what data is kept, why, and how you can delete it.
Who we are
Napbeam is made by Ceyda Aricioglu, the seller shown on the App Store, who is responsible for your data (the "controller"). Contact: hello@napbeam.com.
What we keep
- A random user ID. The first time you open the app, it creates an anonymous account for you automatically.
- A nickname. It is made from ready-made words (for example "Sleepy Paw"); there is no free text. It is shown on the leaderboard and to your friends.
- Game data. The levels you have finished, your stars, your daily puzzle results (time, number of moves, number of items used) and the list of your moves in the daily puzzle. The move list is used to check that a result is genuine and to replay "how they solved it" for your friends.
- Your friends list and the invite codes you create.
- Your email address, only if you use "Sign in with Apple". Apple often gives us a private relay address instead of your real one.
- Your IP address may be kept for a short time in our service providers' server logs.
- Coins. Your coin balance and a record of how you earned and spent coins (levels, daily puzzle, jokers, coin packs).
- Your age: asked before the first ad through Apple's "Share Age Range" window. In some U.S. states, where the law requires it, it is asked when the app opens. Apple gives us only a range (for example 13–15), never your date of birth. If you don't share it, or your phone doesn't support it, we ask for your birth year instead. Both stay on your phone and are never sent to us.
We do not collect your real name, location, contacts or photos. We do not sell your data.
Crash and error reports
If the app crashes or runs into an error, it sends a technical report to Sentry (Functional Software, Inc.), our error-monitoring service, so that we can find and fix the problem. A report contains the error message and where in the code it happened, the app version, your phone model, the iOS version and technical details from that moment, such as free memory. It does not contain your user ID, nickname, coins, email address, IP address or game data; we remove IDs and keys from error messages before a report is sent. Reports are not linked to you and are not used for ads or tracking. They are kept for 30 days in Sentry's European Union data region (Frankfurt, Germany). Legal basis: our legitimate interest in a working, stable app.
Ads
Napbeam is free and shows ads from Google AdMob: a short ad between levels (never in the daily puzzle, and never if you bought "Remove ads") and optional ads you choose to watch for a joker. Google may collect your device's advertising identifier (IDFA, only if you allow it in Apple's "Allow tracking" window), your IP address, device information and how you interact with ads, to show, measure and limit ads and to prevent fraud. In the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland you are asked for consent first, and you can change it at any time in Settings → Privacy options. If you are under 18, ads are not personalised and you are not asked about tracking. If you are under 13, ads are also marked as child-directed. If you are under 16, ads are requested with Google's "under the age of consent" setting. All ads are limited to content suitable for general audiences. When you watch an optional ad for a joker, Napbeam passes Google your random Napbeam account number and the level or day, so that Google can confirm to our server that the ad was watched to the end; this is not your name or email. Google's privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy; how Google uses data from apps: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Purchases
Purchases ("Remove ads", coin packs) are made and paid through Apple; we never see your payment details. We use RevenueCat to check purchases and restore them; it receives your random user ID, the products you bought and the purchase details from Apple. RevenueCat's privacy policy: revenuecat.com/privacy.
Why we use it (legal basis)
- To run the game you asked for: your account, cloud backup of your progress, the daily leaderboard and friends (performance of a contract).
- To keep the leaderboard fair and the service secure, for example by checking results and limiting how often requests are made (legitimate interest).
- Personalised ads and the advertising identifier: only with your consent (and Apple's tracking permission), which you can withdraw at any time. Non-personalised ads: legitimate interest in keeping the game free.
Who can see it
- Everyone on the daily leaderboard: your nickname, score and time.
- Your friends: additionally your streak, whether you solved today's puzzle and, once they have solved that day too, your move list.
- No one else. Only you can access your data.
- Crash and error reports are seen only by us and by Sentry as our service provider.
Where and for how long
- Data is stored on Supabase servers in Frankfurt (European Union). This website is served through Cloudflare.
- Crash and error reports are stored by Sentry in Frankfurt (European Union) for 30 days.
- It is kept until you delete your account.
- An account that is not linked to Apple is deleted automatically if it is not used for 90 days.
Deleting your account
In the app, go to Settings → Delete account. All your data on the server (account, nickname, progress, results, friendships) and the game data on your phone are deleted immediately and permanently. If you signed in with Apple, the link with Apple is revoked as well.
Children
Napbeam is a general-audience game. We learn your age through Apple's age range feature, or, if that isn't available, by asking for your birth year. No answer is suggested, and the answer stays on your phone. If you are under 18, ads are not personalised and you are not asked about tracking. If you are under 13, ads are also marked as child-directed (COPPA). In some places (for example Texas, Utah and Louisiana in the U.S.), a parent or guardian can withdraw their permission for Napbeam through Apple; Apple then stops the app from opening. Our cloud features do not ask for a name or email address and do not allow free text. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Your rights
You can write to us to access, correct or delete your data. Depending on where you live, you have rights under the GDPR (European Union), the UK GDPR, Türkiye's Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 (KVKK) or other local laws. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
