Terms of Service

Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters to us. Here's how we protect and handle your information.

Effective Date: Last updated:

At Brainix, developed by Redstone AI, your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application.

Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information:

a. Personal Information

  • Name
  • Email address
  • Date of birth (optional)
  • Profile photo (optional)

You can sign in to Brainix with Google, with email, or as a guest. If you sign in with Google, or play as a guest and link a Google account, we receive your name, email address and profile photo from Google.

Your date of birth is collected only if you choose to give it. The display name you choose is visible to other players on leaderboards.

Players under 13 play in child mode, which collects less. See Children's Privacy below.

b. Non-Personal Information

  • App usage data (screens visited, features used)
  • Crash logs and performance data

We collect this app usage and crash data with Firebase. Brainix does not use your device's advertising ID.

c. Information Kept on Your Device

Brainix also keeps some information on your device: your play history, challenge progress, reminder time and app settings. This information stays on your device and is removed when you uninstall the app or clear its data. Reminders are local notifications scheduled on your device.

How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

  • Create and manage your account
  • Track your progress and scores
  • Improve app performance and user experience
  • Debug issues and enhance security

Sharing Your Results

You can share your game results and score cards to apps you choose (for example WhatsApp, Instagram or Facebook) through your phone's share menu. The shared content goes to that app and is handled under that app's own terms. Brainix receives no data from those apps.

Data Storage & Security

We store data securely using cloud services (e.g., Firebase). All transmissions are encrypted (HTTPS) and access is restricted.

Children's Privacy

Brainix is intended for users aged 3 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 3. If you believe we've collected such data, please contact us immediately.

Brainix is made for players of all ages: children, teenagers and adults. The first time Brainix opens, it asks the player's age, with nothing filled in. We keep only an age group, either "under 13" or "13 or older", and never the age itself or a date of birth. The age group is saved on the device and, once the player has an account, with that account. Until the age question is answered, Brainix sends no usage statistics, crash reports or notification data.

a. Child Mode for Players Under 13

Players under 13 play in child mode. The child plays as a guest. Email sign-up, Google sign-in and linking a Google account are not available. The child gets a player name chosen automatically, made from "Guest_" and the first 8 characters of the player ID, and cannot change it. While a child plays, leaderboards show every player by an automatic name, never a name someone typed. Before Brainix opens a website, an email or another app, or shares a result, a grown-up must first answer a short question (a parent gate).

In child mode we collect only:

  • An anonymous player ID (a Firebase guest account)
  • The automatic player name
  • Best scores for each game, which other players can see under the automatic name
  • Game progress: games played, streak, daily challenge, chosen improvement areas, daily goal and the day of the last visit
  • The age group "under 13"
  • The Firebase Installation ID and an App Check result from Google Play, which Firebase uses to deliver app settings and to check that requests come from the real app
  • The device's IP address, which Google's servers receive with every request

In child mode we do not collect:

  • An email address or password
  • Any data from a Google account
  • A typed name
  • A profile photo
  • A date of birth
  • Gender
  • A push-notification token
  • App usage statistics: Google Analytics for Firebase is switched off
  • Crash reports: Firebase Crashlytics is switched off
  • The advertising ID, which Brainix never uses for any player

Settings, the reminder time and game records stay on the device, as for every player.

If a player with an existing account says they are under 13, the account becomes a child account: its email address, profile photo, date of birth, gender and chosen name are removed from its profile, its Google and email sign-in are unlinked, and its game progress, scores and streak stay. From then on it plays as a guest on that device. Usage statistics and crash reports sent before the account became a child account stay with Google for Google's retention period; the app cannot delete them.

b. No Ads, No Selling of Data

  • Brainix shows no ads.
  • We do not sell any player's data, and we never use a child's data for advertising.

c. For Parents and Guardians

A parent or guardian can delete a child account and its data at any time:

  • In the app: My Profile → Settings → Profile Details & Accounts → Delete Account. A child account needs no password.
  • By email: in the app, open My Profile → Settings → Profile Details & Accounts, tap Copy Player ID, then email us the Player ID. We delete the account with that Player ID and its data.

The steps are also on our Delete Your Account page. For any question about a child's data, email email@theredstone.ai.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your region, you may have rights to:

  • Access or correct your data
  • Delete your account and associated data
  • Withdraw consent for data use

You can exercise these by contacting us at email@theredstone.ai

Deleting Your Account

You can delete your account and its data at any time.

Delete in the App

  • Open Brainix and tap My Profile at the bottom of the screen.
  • Tap the Settings (gear) button at the top of My Profile.
  • Tap Profile Details & Accounts, then Delete Account.
  • Tap Delete to confirm. To check that it is you, an email account asks for its email address and password, and a Google account asks you to choose your Google account again. A guest or child account needs no extra step.

In short: My Profile → Settings → Profile Details & Accounts → Delete Account. This works for every account: Google, email and guest.

Delete by Email

If you cannot use the app, email email@theredstone.ai from the email address of your Brainix account and ask us to delete it. We check that the request comes from that address, then delete the account and the data listed below. This works for accounts that use Google or email sign-in.

For a child account, which has no email address, a parent can email us its Player ID instead. To find it, open My Profile → Settings → Profile Details & Accounts in the app and tap Copy Player ID. We delete the account with that Player ID and the data listed below.

What We Delete

Deleting your account removes:

  • Your sign-in account (Google, email or guest)
  • Your profile, including your name, email address, date of birth and the areas you chose to improve
  • Your play history, streak and challenge progress stored with us
  • Your best scores on every leaderboard
  • Your username, which becomes free for others to use
  • Your uploaded profile photo

Your sign-in account is removed straight away, and our server then deletes the rest automatically. The app also clears your settings and game records on this device.

What We May Keep

Some data is not deleted with your account:

  • App usage statistics from Google Analytics for Firebase. They are not linked to your name or email address, and Google keeps them for the data-retention period set for Brainix in Google Analytics.
  • Crash reports from Firebase Crashlytics. They are not linked to your name or email address, and Google keeps them for 90 days, then starts removing them from its systems.
  • Results you shared to other apps stay in those apps.

Guest Accounts

A guest account has no email address or password, so we cannot confirm by email that a request comes from its owner. Apart from child accounts (see Delete by Email), a guest account can be deleted only from inside the app, with the steps above. Delete it before you log out or uninstall the app: afterwards you may not be able to open that guest account again.

These steps are also on our website: Delete Your Account.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you via app notification or email.
