One Step Behind · iOS & iPadOS

Privacy notice

This notice describes the current version of One Step Behind, a puzzle game by RunBySimple. It is separate from the policies for our Shopify apps.

Information the game stores

The game stores your current puzzle and moves, best scores, and language, sound, and haptic settings on your device. It does not send this game progress to a RunBySimple game server and does not require an account.

Optional hint advertising

Free players may choose to watch an ad to receive a hint. Google AdMob and its partners may process device identifiers, IP address and approximate location, ad interactions, and diagnostic or performance information to provide and measure advertising. The information used and shared depends on device settings and applicable consent choices. Full-game purchasers can use hints without ads.

Where required, an advertising privacy message offers choices before advertising is requested. You can revisit available choices in the app’s settings. Google explains its practices in its privacy policy. An internet connection is needed to load an ad.

When applicable, iOS may also ask whether you allow tracking across other companies’ apps and websites for advertising. You can change that choice in your device’s Privacy & Security settings. You can decline and still request a hint ad, subject to availability.

Purchases

Apple processes in-app purchases and restores. They require an internet connection and an Apple Account. RunBySimple does not receive your payment card details from the game.

Deletion and backups

Deleting the app deletes its local data on that device. Offloading the app keeps its data. Your system backup settings may retain copies; manage those backups through Apple’s settings.

Support and this website

If you email us, we receive your email address and message to answer your request. We retain correspondence as needed to handle support or meet applicable obligations. Our website hosting provider may process request information such as IP addresses and browser information for delivery and security.

Apple and your device’s system services operate independently of the game; their own privacy terms apply.

Contact and changes

For questions or a request about information you sent us, email support@runbysimple.com. Please identify One Step Behind and do not include passwords or payment details. We will update this notice if the game’s data practices change.
