Pop Patch privacy policy
Last updated: 1 November 2026
The short version
- Pop Patch does not ask for, and does not collect, your name, email, age, location, contacts, photos or any other personal information. There are no accounts, logins or chat in the game.
- Your progress is saved on your own device. On some game websites it is also saved to your account on that website, so it follows you between devices.
- The websites that host the game (such as YouTube, CrazyGames, GameDistribution or GamePix) show ads and run their own services under their own privacy policies. Pop Patch does not choose who sees which ad and does not receive data about you from them.
- Pop Patch has no analytics and no statistics. It sends no gameplay data to the developer or to any analytics service.
- Pop Patch is made for players aged 13 and over.
Who we are
Pop Patch is made by Isak Persson, an independent developer in Sweden. Contact for anything about privacy: hello@miniumfield.com.
What the game stores on your device
The game keeps one small entry in your browser's local storage (or the app's storage on phones). It never leaves your device unless the game website saves it to your account there (see the next section).
| What | Why |
|---|---|
| Progress: highest level reached, stars per level, your best Classic score, and the Classic game you have in progress | so you continue where you left off |
| Daily challenge: your streak, your best streak, the days a streak freeze was used, and your latest daily result (stars, moves, which colours popped) | so the daily streak and the share picture work |
| Settings: sound and music volume, vibration, reduced effects, theme (light, dark or automatic) | so your choices stay |
| Power-up counts (Undo, Hammer, New pieces) and which level gifts you have claimed | so you keep the power-ups you have earned |
| Your coins, and how many reward videos you have watched today (for extra power-ups and the free gift) | so you keep the coins you have earned, and so reward videos stay within their daily limits |
| The Collection: the outfits and board themes you own, the outfit Puff wears and the board theme in use, how many free picks (one free item for every 150 stars) you have used, and in the phone apps how many reward videos you have watched toward an item | so you keep what you have unlocked, and Puff and the board look the way you chose |
| Which hint cards you have already seen | so the same hint is not shown twice |
| A count of how many times you have opened the game | to pace ads fairly (for example, on most game websites, no ads in your first session) |
None of this contains personal information. You can delete it at any time by clearing the site data for the game in your browser settings (or uninstalling the app). That also deletes your progress.
Where you play changes who else is involved
You play Pop Patch on a game website or in an app run by another company. That company decides what it collects, under its own privacy policy, and is responsible for asking for your consent where the law requires it.
- YouTube Playables (Google): ads, if any, are shown by YouTube. Your progress is saved to your YouTube account through YouTube's save feature. Your best Classic score is sent to YouTube through its score feature. The game makes no connection to any server other than YouTube's. Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- CrazyGames: ads are shown by CrazyGames, which asks visitors for consent to advertising cookies. If you are signed in to CrazyGames, your progress is saved to your CrazyGames account; if you are not, CrazyGames keeps it in your browser and moves it to your account when you sign in. CrazyGames' privacy policy: https://www.crazygames.com/privacy-policy
- GameDistribution (and the many websites that show the game through the GameDistribution network): ads are shown by GameDistribution, which asks visitors for consent to advertising cookies where the law requires it and only tells the game whether ads may be personalised (the game uses none of that). Your progress is saved only in your browser on this device, not to any account. The game makes no connection to any server other than GameDistribution's. GameDistribution's privacy policy is linked at the foot of https://gamedistribution.com
- GamePix (and the websites that show the game through GamePix): ads are shown by GamePix, which also handles asking for consent. Your progress is kept in your browser on this device; if you are signed in to GamePix, GamePix may also copy it to your GamePix account so it follows you. The game makes no connection to any server other than GamePix's, and shows no links of its own. GamePix's privacy policy is linked at the foot of https://www.gamepix.com
- Phone apps (iOS and Android): not released yet. This policy will be updated before release with the ad network used in the apps, how consent is asked, and app store details.
Sharing your daily result
Where the host allows sharing (it is not shown on YouTube, CrazyGames, GameDistribution or GamePix), the daily challenge has a Share button. It makes a small picture and a line of text with the date, your stars and moves and your streak. This is made on your device. It is only passed on if you choose an app or person in your device's share menu; if your browser cannot share, the text is copied to your clipboard instead. The game never reads your clipboard.
Children
Pop Patch is a general audience game for players aged 13 and over. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. The game asks for no personal information from anyone.
Your rights
If you live in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or another region with similar laws, you have the right to access, correct, delete or object to the processing of personal data about you, and to withdraw consent at any time. Because the game itself holds no personal information, most requests are answered by "we have nothing", but contact us at hello@miniumfield.com and we will help. For data held by a game website (ads, accounts, cloud saves), contact that website; their links are above. You can also complain to your data protection authority.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version is published at this address with a new date.
