YOUR GAME, YOUR INFORMATION
Privacy policy
Learn what stays on your device, what is used for purchases and online challenges, and how to contact us about your information.

1. Publisher and contact
Block Journey is published by Starnama.
For privacy questions or requests, contact Support@starnama.com.
2. Your device and game progress
The game saves your ongoing Classic board, personal records, tools, coin and gem balances, owned themes and combo signatures, trophies, daily goals, monthly season progress, purchase fulfillment records, settings and player name on your device. Classic gameplay and local collections work offline. Classic saves and wallets are not synchronized between devices.
Clearing the app's storage in Android settings or uninstalling the app can remove this local data, including progress, inventory and the anonymous billing credential. Restoring ad removal requires that original credential and the same Google Play account. There is no automatic recovery of the billing credential after deletion or on a different device. Previously consumed coins, gems and tools are not restored.
3. Ads and your choices
The Android game uses Google Mobile Ads and Google's User Messaging Platform. Depending on the service configuration and your choices, Google's advertising services may collect or share IP address information, app interactions, diagnostic information and device or account identifiers for advertising, analytics and fraud prevention.
For details, read the Google Mobile Ads data disclosure and Google Privacy Policy.
The game displays Google's consent flow where required by the service and offers Privacy choices in Settings when additional choices are available. Buying ad removal disables automatic interstitial ads. Rewarded ads remain optional and use the advertising service when you choose to watch them.
4. Google Play purchases
Google Play processes payments and handles your payment-card details. Starnama does not store those card details, and there is no card-entry form inside the game. The game receives product and transaction information needed to verify purchases and deliver items, and saves fulfillment records locally to prevent duplicate delivery.
Starnama's purchase-verification service receives an anonymous billing identity, product ID and purchase receipt or token. It checks the token with Google. Its private database stores credential and token hashes, product and purchase-reference details, account bindings and verification timestamps to deliver purchases once and support restoration.
Contact support for questions about purchase records or deletion. Records needed to verify delivery, prevent duplicate fulfillment or meet applicable obligations may need to be retained.
5. Optional online challenges and sharing
Opening Daily Challenge creates a separate anonymous online credential. The game sends your chosen player name, challenge attempts, legal moves and related timestamps to Starnama's server. The community leaderboard displays each profile's best daily score, line count, best combo and chosen name. Choose a public player name that does not reveal private information.
Short share codes, such as BJ-XXXX-XXXX, are random references to verified results stored on the server. They do not contain your name, score or account details. Anyone with a valid code can view the public player name, target score and shared challenge. Older signed links contain a readable challenge ID, public player name, score and expiry, and continue to work until their original expiry.
When you choose to share, the game creates a PNG card with your selected name, actual score and board. A verified challenge result also includes a shared link and QR code. The card is sent only through the sharing flow you select on your device.
Share codes expire seven days after the original result submission; retrying a submission does not extend that period. We remove challenge attempt and result records, including their short share codes, that are older than 30 days during routine cleanup. The anonymous online profile is kept separately and is not removed by this cleanup.
Clearing app data removes the credential from your device but does not automatically delete server records. Contact support about those records. This feature does not upload your Classic wallet or save.
6. Optional reminders
Notifications are off by default. Enabling reminders may request Android notification permission. Daily reminders are scheduled locally. You can switch them off in the game or in Android settings.
7. This website
This website is hosted by Starnama at starnama.com. It does not use analytics tags, advertising scripts, a contact form, cookies or browser storage for site preferences. Hosting and security systems may process technical request information, such as your IP address, the requested path and request time. The game API does not log raw purchase tokens or authorization credentials.
8. Age suitability and children's privacy
Check the game's Google Play listing for its age rating and audience information. If you are a parent or guardian with a question about a child's information, or believe a child has provided personal information to Starnama, contact us using the privacy email above.
9. Your requests and policy updates
You can contact Starnama about access, correction or deletion of information controlled by us. Include your Player ID, if available, to help us locate relevant records. We may ask for information needed to identify those records or verify a request. Do not send passwords or payment-card details.
You can clear local game data on your device. Google handles information held by its own services under its policies. We update this page when the game's data practices change; the date above identifies the latest version.
