This Privacy Policy applies directly to the Clackety 3D Builder mobile app published by DBX STUDIOS for Android phones and tablets, iPhones, and iPads. It also explains this marketing website and support email separately from offline gameplay. Privacy contact: support@clackety3dbuilder.com.

1. Offline gameplay and information on your device

The game operates offline after installation. DBX STUDIOS does not collect, harvest, transmit, share, or sell personal identifiers, location data, device analytics, or gameplay analytics through the mobile game. We do not request your name, email address, contacts, photos, microphone, or location to play. There is no location tracking, player account system, behavioral advertising, or analytics SDK in the game. Build progress, sound settings, and unlock status are saved locally on your device, rather than in a DBX STUDIOS cloud profile.

Internet access is needed to download the app, receive updates, and make or restore store purchases. When online, the current app may request typefaces from Google Fonts; Google receives ordinary connection information, such as an IP address and request headers, to deliver those files under its own privacy policy. These font requests are separate from offline gameplay and are not DBX STUDIOS device analytics.

2. Free content and optional in-app purchases

The free download includes 2 complete dioramas, Steam Train and Speedboat Adventure, with no time limits and complete drive modes. All remaining 8 workshop models and future creative updates are included in a single, optional, one-time in-app purchase. There are no recurring subscriptions or forced video ads. The relevant store listing shows regional pricing before purchase. Parents or guardians should manage optional purchases.

Optional purchases for the Android release will be securely processed through Google Play In-App Billing. Purchases on iPhone and iPad will use Apple’s App Store in-app purchase system. DBX STUDIOS does not collect, receive, or store credit card numbers, bank account details, or payment credentials. Google and Apple handle payment and store account information under their own privacy policies. Purchase verification and restoration may use a store-issued transaction or entitlement identifier, and the app may save unlock status locally. These identifiers are not used for advertising or device analytics.

3. Children’s privacy, COPPA and Google Play Families Policies

Clackety 3D Builder is designed for players of all ages, including children. DBX STUDIOS is committed to complying with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and Google Play Families Policies. Our gameplay privacy approach avoids collecting, using, or sharing children’s personal information. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through gameplay, track their location, or serve behavioral advertising or forced video ads. This commitment also applies when selecting third-party services for the mobile release.

Parents and guardians can contact support@clackety3dbuilder.com about children’s privacy or to request review or deletion of information sent to support. If a child sends us personal information, we will address the report and delete information under our control as appropriate. Read the FTC’s COPPA guidance and Google Play Families Policies for the applicable requirements.

4. This website and support email

This marketing website does not use advertising trackers or analytics. Its hosting provider and the Tailwind CSS CDN (jsDelivr) receive ordinary connection information, such as IP address and browser request data, to deliver the page and styling. These website requests are separate from the mobile app’s offline gameplay. If you email support, we receive your email address and message and use them only to respond and resolve your request. For refund requests, this may include an order number, purchase date, and issue description, used to investigate the request and verify the purchase. Please do not send payment credentials or other sensitive information.

5. Retention, deletion, and security

Local game data stays on your device until you clear the app’s data or uninstall it; device backups are controlled by your operating system. We retain support correspondence only as long as necessary to resolve your request or meet applicable obligations. Email us to request deletion of support messages under our control. We use reasonable safeguards for information we hold; no transmission or storage method is completely secure.

6. Sharing and changes

DBX STUDIOS does not sell personal information. Support information may be handled by our email service provider or disclosed where legally required. If the app’s data practices change, we will update this policy and its effective date before introducing those changes, and provide notice or obtain consent where required.

Refund eligibility may vary by region and applicable law. Nothing in this policy limits your statutory consumer rights.
