Bloom Grid
Privacy Policy
Effective date: September 9, 2026
Bloom Grid is a calm garden block puzzle. Sign-in is optional and platform-native: Sign in with Apple on iOS, Google sign-in on Android, and Continue as Guest on every platform. Gameplay progress stays on this device. It is not uploaded to a Bloom Grid server.
Sign-in options
Guest (all platforms) — no account, no network. Progress and preferences stay on the device. Guest play works in airplane mode. Uninstalling the app removes this local data. Guest Settings offers Back to sign-in only; there is no account to delete.
Sign in with Apple (iOS) — uses the native Sign in with Apple sheet and Firebase Authentication (project bloom-grid-ba195, provider apple.com). Bloom Grid may receive the player's name (if Apple returns one), an email address (which may be a Hide My Email relay), and a Firebase user ID. A refresh token is stored on the device so the session can restore. Google and TikTok login are not offered on iOS.
Google sign-in (Android) — uses Firebase Authentication. Bloom Grid receives the Google display name, email, profile photo URL, and a Firebase user ID. A refresh token is stored on the device so the session can restore. Sign in with Apple is not offered on Android.
Data collected
| Data | When | On device | Transmitted | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Game progress | Always | Yes | No | Preserve game state |
| Settings | Always | Yes | No | Accessibility and gameplay |
| Display name | Apple (iOS) or Google (Android) | Yes | Yes (Firebase) | Identify the player |
| Apple (iOS) or Google (Android) | No | Yes (Firebase) | Account identity | |
| Profile photo URL | Google sign-in (Android) | No | Yes (Firebase) | Avatar display |
| Firebase user ID | Apple (iOS) or Google (Android) | Yes | Yes (Firebase) | Account identity |
| Firebase refresh token | Apple (iOS) or Google (Android) | Yes | Yes (Firebase) | Restore session |
Bloom Grid does not collect precise location, contacts, calendar, health, browsing history, purchase history, or user-generated content. There is no in-app chat, no social posting, and no advertising.
Data sharing
Bloom Grid does not sell personal data. On iOS, identity uses Sign in with Apple plus Firebase Authentication for the session. Hide My Email is Apple’s feature. On Android, identity uses Firebase Authentication (Google Sign-In). Bloom Grid does not use Firebase Analytics, Crashlytics, Cloud Messaging, or any other Firebase product beyond Authentication.
Retention
- Guest data stays on the device until uninstall or a progress reset.
- Sign out clears the local session and returns to Auth. Journey progress stays on the device.
- Delete account (signed-in Settings only) requires in-app confirmation, deletes the Firebase Authentication user, clears the local session, and returns to Auth. Journey progress stays on the device because it was never uploaded.
- Bloom Grid does not keep a first-party server database of player data beyond what Firebase Authentication stores for the signed-in account.
Network
Guest play requires no Internet. Sign in with Apple (iOS) and Google sign-in (Android) require Internet to reach Apple or Google and Firebase.
Device capabilities
- Android vibration is optional haptic feedback and can be turned off in Settings.
- Android Internet permission exists so Google sign-in can reach Firebase.
- Bloom Grid does not use camera, microphone, or photo library.
Children
Bloom Grid does not knowingly collect personal data from children. Sign-in is optional and is not directed at children.
Your choices
- Play as Guest to avoid all identity transmission.
- Sign out at any time to clear the refresh token. Progress stays on the device.
- Delete your account from Settings (signed-in players only). This removes the Firebase user and the local session. Journey progress stays on the device.
- Uninstall the app to remove remaining local data.
