07 What About Children?

Note for EEA users: the minimum age threshold may be up to 16 in certain Member States. We comply with all applicable jurisdiction-specific age requirements.

08 Where Does Your Data Go?

Primary Server & Analytics Endpoint

Flower Shop Sort routes gameplay data and analytics to our primary infrastructure at:

This endpoint handles puzzle progress synchronization, server-side level validation, leaderboard updates, and crash reporting. The analytics layer processes fully anonymized, aggregated usage metrics — no personally identifiable information is retained in analytics storage.

Endpoint Security Measures

• All connections are encrypted with TLS 1.2 or higher
• Role-based access controls restrict data access to authorized engineering staff only
• Data minimization is enforced at every processing stage
• Regular penetration tests and vulnerability scans are conducted on all endpoints
• Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) are in place with every third-party data handler

09 What Rights Do You Have?

Multiple privacy frameworks protect you depending on your location. We honor every valid request promptly.

To exercise any right, email twilightwhisperenigma@gmail.com with subject line "Privacy Rights Request". We will verify your identity and respond within the timeframe required by your local law (typically 30–45 days).

10 Is Your Data Safe?

We apply a layered approach to security:

No electronic storage or internet transmission is 100% secure. We use commercially reasonable measures and encourage you to report any suspected security issues to twilightwhisperenigma@gmail.com.

11 How Long Do We Store Your Data?

We follow a data minimalism policy — personal data is retained only as long as it is needed:

• Aggregated, fully anonymized usage data may be retained longer for product development
• Upon receiving a verified deletion request, we purge your data within the timeframe required by applicable law
• Backup copies are purged on their normal rotation schedule, typically within 30 days of deletion

12 What About Cross-Border Data Transfers?

Flower Shop Sort operates globally. Your data may be transferred to and processed on servers located in countries other than your country of residence — which may have different data protection standards.

In all cases, we ensure equivalent protection through:

• TLS 1.2+ encryption for all data in transit across borders
• Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent contractual safeguards for transfers from the EEA or UK
• Careful vetting of hosting and processing partners to ensure they meet our minimum security standards
