Privacy Choices
Your options for managing data in the 6 Degrees app.
This page explains the privacy choices available to you when using the 6 Degrees mobile app.
No Northvale Pixel Labs Account
6 Degrees does not create or require a Northvale Pixel Labs account. On Android, Google Play Games Services may authenticate your existing Play Games profile for global leaderboard features. This is a Google platform identity and is not an account held by Northvale Pixel Labs.
Local Data Storage
Your personal game statistics — including streaks, completion times, guess statistics, and your local top-ten results — are stored locally on your device. This data is not uploaded to or stored on Northvale Pixel Labs servers.
Deleting Your Local Data
You can remove all locally stored game data at any time by:
- Uninstalling the app from your device
- Clearing the app's data through your device settings
Warning: This will permanently remove your game progress and statistics. This action cannot be undone, and Northvale Pixel Labs cannot restore locally stored data because it is not backed up to our servers.
Google Play Games and Leaderboards
On supported Android devices, your best Easy and Hard completion times may be submitted to Google Play Games leaderboards when you are authenticated with Play Games Services. Google may process your Play Games gamer identity and leaderboard score for these features.
You can manage your Play Games profile visibility and delete game-related Play Games data through Google Play Games or your Google Account controls. Deleting local 6 Degrees data does not automatically delete leaderboard data held by Google.
Analytics
The app uses Google Analytics for Firebase to collect usage analytics. This may include app interactions, app version, device and operating-system information, automatically generated identifiers, and approximate or coarse location information derived from network information where applicable. The actual words you guess are never sent to analytics.
Available device-level privacy controls vary by platform and operating-system version. Review your device privacy settings and Google's Firebase privacy information for details about controls that may be available to you.
