🌸 BeadGrid · Fuse Bead Studio 🌸

Privacy Policy

Effective date: 10 November 2026 · Version 1.0

App: BeadGrid · Web: pixels.snoozle.pro · Android package: pro.snoozle.beadgrid

💖Short version

Your pictures never leave your device. Everything runs in your browser / on your phone.
We store only three tiny on-device preferences (ads on/off, ad consent choice, remove-ads flag). No accounts, no tracking by us.
Ads (Google AdMob banners only) load solely when a grown-up opts in — no ad code runs before that. You can switch ads off any time in the app.
Questions? Write to privacy@snoozle.pro.

🌷1. Who we are

BeadGrid ("Fuse Bead Studio") is a fully client-side pixel-art → fuse-bead pattern tool made by Antoine (snoozle.pro). There is no company data department, no analytics backend, and no user-account system. For data-protection (GDPR) purposes, Antoine is the data controller.

TODO (owner): confirm controller identity + postal contact before publishing.

🧁2. What runs on your device

BeadGrid works fully offline. When you open an image:

Grid detection, cleaning, palette mapping, and bead conversion all run locally on your device (JavaScript + canvas).
Images are never uploaded to us or anyone else by the app itself. They stay in your browser's memory / on your phone.
The app keeps working with ads off and with no internet connection (ad slots simply collapse to zero height).

🎀3. Data we store (on your device only)

We keep just three small preferences in your browser's localStorage. They never leave your device and the app's own code sends them nowhere:

Key	What it means	Default
`pp_ads_enabled`	Grown-ups toggle: show ads to keep BeadGrid free.	On
`pp_ads_consent`	Ad-consent choice: `unknown` / `granted` / `denied`. No ad SDK loads until `granted`.	`unknown` (consent bar is shown)
`pp_remove_ads`	Remove-ads purchase flag (future Play Billing option; currently a placeholder).	Off

Clearing your browser's site data (or the Android app's storage) erases all three. Private/incognito mode simply doesn't persist them.

📢4. Advertising (Google AdMob)

BeadGrid is free and ad-supported. When a grown-up enables ads and grants consent, the app shows banner ads only (anchored-adaptive banner at the bottom / end of the settings panel) served by Google AdMob (native Android builds) with an AdSense fallback on the web version.

Gate: ads load only when all of these hold: ads toggle on + no remove-ads purchase + consent granted + device online + real ad IDs configured. The ad SDK is lazy-loaded — it is never bundled with the app and no ad-network request happens before consent.
What Google may process: when an ad loads, Google (as its own controller/processor) may receive device identifiers (including the Android advertising ID), IP address / approximate location, device and app-event data, and diagnostics, to serve, measure, and prevent fraud around ads. See Google's Privacy Policy and AdMob & privacy.
Current status: this build still carries placeholder ad-unit IDs, so no real ad requests are configured yet. The description above applies once real IDs ship.
app-ads.txt: our authorized-sellers file lives at pixels.snoozle.pro/app-ads.txt so ad buyers can verify our inventory.

Consent (GDPR / EEA + UK)

On first run a friendly Grown-ups consent bar asks whether ads may be shown. Choice is stored locally and can be changed any time via the in-app "Privacy & ad choices" button.
In regions where it applies (EU/EEA/UK), Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) consent message is the consent layer for personalized ads; the in-app button re-opens it where the native shell exposes it.
Saying "No thanks" (or switching the toggle off) means zero ad-network requests — the app keeps working fully.

Opting out / controls

In the app: Grown-ups section → uncheck "Show ads", or tap "Privacy & ad choices" → "No thanks".
On Android: Settings → Privacy → Ads → Reset or Delete advertising ID; ad personalization follows your system choice.
Remove-ads purchase: planned via Google Play Billing (button currently shows "coming soon"). Buying it disables all ads.
Kid-friendly ad setup (intent): banner-only (no interstitials or rewarded gates on creative features), age-appropriate content-rating controls, and sensitive-category blocks are configured in AdMob. See the families note below.

🧸5. Children & families

BeadGrid is a cute creative tool that families and kids may enjoy, so it is built to be family-conscious: no accounts, no chat, no uploads, banner ads only and kept outside the creative flow, and every ad decision sits behind a clearly-labeled Grown-ups section.

We ask a parent or guardian to make the ad choice for children. This policy does not claim certification under any app-store families program — store questionnaires and ratings are answered separately and truthfully at release time.

🇪🇺6. Your rights (GDPR)

Because the app itself stores nothing about you on any server, most rights are exercised on your device: switch ads off, reset consent, or clear site/app storage and nothing of yours remains with us.

For questions or requests (access, erasure, objection, complaint about the policy), contact us (see below). You also have the right to complain to your national data-protection authority (e.g. in France, the CNIL). Data processed by Google in connection with ads is covered by Google's own policies and controls (including UMP choices).

TODO (owner): add Data Processing Agreement (DPA) details with Google/AdMob and any vendor list once real ad IDs + UMP messages are published.

🇫🇷7. Résumé en français

BeadGrid respecte votre vie privée : vos images ne quittent jamais votre appareil — tout fonctionne localement, même hors ligne. Nous ne conservons que trois petits réglages sur votre appareil (affichage des pubs, choix de consentement, option « sans pubs »). Les bannières publicitaires Google AdMob ne se chargent que si un adulte donne son accord (bandeau « Grown-ups ») ; vous pouvez refuser ou couper les pubs à tout moment dans l'application, et réinitialiser l'identifiant publicitaire dans les réglages Android. Questions : privacy@snoozle.pro. Pour les enfants, merci aux parents de faire le choix des publicités.
