Who to contact
Fanatic Fox Games is an independent game studio in the Netherlands and the developer of Little Plot. Contact office@fanaticfoxgames.com for privacy questions or requests.
Your garden on your device
Little Plot stores puzzle progress, your garden, inventory, timers, preferences and recovery information on your device. Ordinary puzzles can be played without Google sign-in. Exported saves stay wherever you choose to keep them.
Removing app data through Android’s storage settings removes the local app save. It does not remove cloud data or copies you exported elsewhere.
Google sign-in and cloud saves
If you choose to sign in with Google, Firebase Authentication processes your sign-in identity and assigns a Little Plot account identifier. The sign-in profile can include your email address, name and profile image. Authentication credentials are handled by Google’s native sign-in services; we do not ask for your Google password.
Cloud features use your account identifier, game save, installation identifier, synchronization revision and timestamps to save and recover your garden. Saves can include completed levels, garden projects, crops, inventory, timers and preferences. In the current test app, saving and restoring a cloud garden are explicit actions; signing in alone does not upload or replace your local garden. Test gardens are stored separately from production game data.
Purchases and security
The current development build uses simulated purchases. Where a release offers real purchases, Google Play processes payment; we do not receive payment-card details. The purchase system uses product identifiers, purchase tokens and verification results to credit purchases, recover them and prevent duplicate credits. It keeps an account-linked balance and transaction history.
Play Integrity can check app, device and licensing signals for purchase verification. A raw purchase token is held in a protected settlement queue until settlement succeeds. An unlinked token fingerprint may remain after account deletion to prevent duplicate credits.
Optional analytics and crash reports
The app includes support for optional Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics. Collection is off initially and is controlled by the app’s privacy preferences in versions that expose these options. When enabled, these services can process gameplay events, crash information and app, device or installation identifiers. They are used to understand gameplay and investigate reliability problems. The app does not deliberately add sign-in tokens, purchase tokens or personal text to these reports.
Little Plot includes no advertising SDK and does not request an advertising ID.
Garden reminders
Optional harvest and building reminders use local timers and Android notification permission. They are scheduled on your device; the app does not use a marketing push-notification service for them.
This website and support
This website has no added advertising trackers, analytics scripts, account registration or embedded third-party fonts. The hosting service processes connection data, such as an IP address and browser request, to deliver and protect the website. A private preview may require the hosting platform’s own sign-in, which does not create a Little Plot account.
If you contact us, our email provider processes your email address, message and attachments so we can respond and investigate the issue. Send only what is needed. Support correspondence is used for handling the request and related follow-up, not for marketing without permission.
Service providers
Little Plot uses Google Firebase and Google Cloud for authentication, cloud storage and related backend services, and Google Play for Android purchase services. Optional analytics and crash reports use Google’s Firebase services. Connections to the backend use HTTPS. Infrastructure can process connection and operational metadata. Google’s services can process data in more than one country. Their applicable terms describe international processing and safeguards.
Google services process information under their applicable terms and privacy documentation. See Firebase privacy information and Google’s privacy policy.
Keeping and deleting information
Your active cloud save and account records remain until the account is deleted. The deletion process covers cloud game records and the Firebase sign-in account, including a separate test garden. It does not delete your Google account, Google Play purchase history or local save files.
A purchase-token fingerprint can remain without your Little Plot account link to prevent duplicate purchase credits. The current backend does not automatically expire it. Technical logs, backups and optional analytics or crash data have separate provider retention and deletion controls; removing the active cloud account does not by itself prove that every provider copy has been erased.
We keep support correspondence while needed for the request and related follow-up, or where retention is required. Contact us to ask what information remains or to request its deletion.
Your choices and requests
You can play as a guest, choose whether to use cloud features, control optional services where available and remove local app data. Use our account-deletion request page to request deletion without reinstalling the app. You can also ask us for access to, correction of or deletion of information connected to your use of Little Plot, or ask about a restriction, objection or copy of your data. We may need to verify that a request relates to your account.
You can contact the Dutch data-protection authority, the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens, if you have a privacy complaint. Please do not send passwords, verification codes or identity documents in an initial support request.
