Welcome to our product. Libercube (the "Product and Services") is developed and operated by LumiLoki (Chongqing) Tech Co.,Ltd. ("we", "us", or "our"). Protecting your data security and privacy is our top priority. This Privacy Policy describes the data we collect when you access and use our Product and Services, and how that data is processed. This app is provided as a free service.
This Privacy Policy applies to the Libercube App and related products and services that we provide directly and that expressly reference this Policy, including account services, smart cube Bluetooth connection, color recognition, training and result records, and 1v1 online matches. For third-party services accessed through Libercube, those third parties may process your personal information under their own privacy policies. We describe them in the "Third-Party Services" section below.
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully and make sure you fully understand all of its rules and key points before continuing to use our product. By choosing to use the Product and Services, you agree to this Privacy Policy in full. If you do not agree to this Policy or any of its terms, you should stop using our Product and Services, or stop using the specific features related to those terms.
This Privacy Policy helps you understand:
This product is currently available on the App Store in the United States and in mainland China. This Policy applies to both service regions, and the "Service Regions and Data Storage Locations" section explains how data is processed in each region.
Personal information means any information recorded electronically or otherwise that, alone or in combination with other information, can identify a specific natural person or reflect the activities of a specific natural person. Depending on the service region you use, we process your personal information in accordance with applicable laws: for users in the United States and other overseas regions, we follow the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and applicable state privacy laws (such as the California Consumer Privacy Act / California Privacy Rights Act, CCPA/CPRA, where applicable); for users in mainland China, we follow the Cybersecurity Law of the People's Republic of China, the Personal Information Protection Law of the People's Republic of China, and the Information Security Technology — Personal Information Security Specification (GB/T 35273-2017), among other laws and standards. We strictly follow the principles of lawfulness, legitimacy, and necessity, and process your personal information only for clear and reasonable purposes that are directly related to providing the relevant features. All information you provide comes from you (or, for child users, a parent or guardian) when you actively provide it during registration or use of related features.
Specifically, we collect and use information in the following scenarios:
1. Registration, login, account management, and parental consent. This product is intended for users of all ages, including children. When a user is a child or minor, account registration must be completed by a parent or guardian: the registration flow requires a parent/guardian email address, which we use to send verification information. A child account is created and activated only after verifiable parental consent is obtained. We process: the parent/guardian email address and verification status; user account ID; login status and necessary authentication information; and account information you actively authorize through third-party sign-in services (Apple, Google, or Facebook). This information is used to verify the guardian's identity, create and manage the account, keep you signed in, prevent account abuse and unusual logins, and sync account-related data. We do not ask you for third-party account passwords unrelated to the login feature. A parent or guardian may contact us at any time through the verified email address to access or correct a child's account information, or to request account deletion or withdrawal of consent.
2. User profile. When you set or update your profile, we may process your nickname, avatar, bio, user ID, and other public or semi-public profile information associated with your account, in order to display your profile and identify you in matches, records, leaderboards, and similar contexts. Please do not include unnecessary sensitive information such as ID numbers, bank card details, or home addresses in your nickname, avatar, or bio.
3. Smart cube and Bluetooth. When you actively connect a smart cube, the App will request Bluetooth access and process technical data necessary to establish, maintain, and restore the device connection, including Bluetooth connection status, device connection information, cube state, and rotation or operation status. This is used to discover and connect devices, sync the physical cube state to the App in real time, restore connections, and provide training, timing, and analysis features. We do not actively read data from other Bluetooth devices unrelated to this service merely because you use Bluetooth.
4. Camera and cube color recognition. When you actively use cube color recognition or other camera-based features, we may request camera permission to capture cube color information and to help recognize or enter cube state. Camera frames and original images used for cube color recognition are processed only on your device. We do not upload original camera frames or photos to our servers for this feature.
5. Photos and avatars. When you actively choose a local image as your avatar or for other image-based features, we may request access to the photo you select. We only access the image you choose and do not read your entire photo library merely because you set an avatar. If you upload an avatar, that avatar may be uploaded to our cloud storage and associated with your account.
6. Training, results, and cube usage data. When you use training, timing, algorithms, solvers, cube records, or similar features, we may process training records, completion times, operation results, cube state, solver results, scores, and other business records associated with your account, in order to save your training and usage history, display past results, calculate statistics, and improve the product experience. The actual scope of collection depends on the features currently provided.
7. 1v1 online matches. When you use online match features, we may process user ID, player nickname and avatar, matchmaking information, room or match identifiers, match status, real-time operation data, match time and results, records, ranking or rating information, and technical information necessary to establish a real-time network connection. This is used for player matching, creating and maintaining match rooms, syncing live match state, determining results, saving records, and maintaining fair play and system security. To prevent cheating, fabricated results, or disruption of fair competition, we may perform necessary security analysis of unusual match behavior. Because this feature involves real-time interaction and mutual visibility of nicknames and avatars, we do not provide open text chat or private messaging. During a match, we only display timing, solve status, and other information related to the match itself, in order to reduce risks for child users in interactive features.
8. Product analytics. To understand product usage and improve the experience, we may use analytics services such as Firebase Analytics to process App usage and interaction events, App version, operating system version, device type, feature usage, and necessary technical identifiers. We do not sell your personal information merely because we use product analytics.
9. Crash and diagnostic information. To discover and fix software faults, we may use services such as Firebase Crashlytics to process crash logs, App state, device model, operating system version, App version, and other diagnostic information, in order to locate crashes, analyze errors, and improve product stability and security.
We request system permissions only when a related feature requires them. You may manage these permissions at any time in your device settings.
We retain your personal information only for as long as needed to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected (for example, while you maintain an account to receive services from our product). In general, basic account information is retained for the life of the account; training records, match records, and similar business data are retained for as long as needed to provide history, statistics, and security features; and crash and analytics logs are retained according to the actual configuration of the relevant services. To comply with legal obligations, or to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims within applicable limitation periods, we may need to retain archived personal information after those periods expire and may be unable to delete it upon request. When your personal information is no longer needed, we will ensure it is fully deleted or anonymized. If you confirm that you will no longer use our Product and Services and actively delete your account as required, all information will be fully deleted.
We use industry-standard security measures to protect the personal information you provide, including access control, identity authentication, transmission encryption, database permission management, key and credential management, logging and anomaly monitoring, security updates, and data backup and recovery, to prevent unauthorized access, public disclosure, use, modification, damage, or loss.
To strengthen privacy protection, we apply de-identification at the time of collection, and even in our own databases we do not store associated personal information in plaintext. No internet service can guarantee absolute security. If a personal information security incident occurs that may affect users' rights and interests, we will take remedial measures and fulfill applicable notification or reporting obligations under applicable law.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you (or, for child users, a parent or guardian) may have the right to:
For child users, the rights above are exercised by the parent or guardian who completed registration verification. A parent may submit a request through the verified registration email or the contact details at the end of this Policy. After we verify the relationship between the parent and the account, we will handle the request in accordance with applicable law. You may also turn off Bluetooth, camera, photos, and similar permissions in your operating system settings, and manage related authorizations through in-app features. Withdrawal of consent does not affect processing that was lawfully based on valid authorization before withdrawal. After you turn off a permission, features that directly depend on that permission may become unavailable, but other features that do not depend on it and can operate independently will not be affected.
If you (or a child user's parent or guardian) no longer wish to use Libercube, you may request account deletion through the relevant in-app feature. For a child account, the deletion request should be initiated by the parent who completed registration verification, using the verified email or the contact details at the end of this Policy. Account deletion typically includes: stopping the provision of services through that account; deleting or unlinking user profile information; deleting account-related personal information that no longer needs to be retained; clearing related login status and authentication information; and handling associated data such as avatars and settings as applicable.
For a limited amount of information that we are required by law to retain, or that we have a legitimate need to retain for network security, dispute resolution, or fraud prevention, we may continue to store it for the necessary period to the extent permitted by law, and restrict its use during that period. For users who sign in with a third-party account, we will also handle related authorizations in accordance with the relevant platform and applicable rules during account deletion. Once an account is deleted, some data may not be recoverable. Please proceed with care.
Where needed to manage our ordinary business operations and to pursue legitimate interests in better serving users, we will use your personal information in a compliant and appropriate manner. We will not provide your personal information to third parties without a legitimate basis, will not sell personal information as a business model, and will not sell user personal information for direct monetary consideration. To provide product features (such as cloud database, cloud storage, sign-in services, crash analysis, data analysis, and real-time match networking), we will engage the third-party service providers listed later in this Policy to process necessary information, and require them to process it within a reasonable scope in accordance with applicable law and our agreements.
We may share your personal information externally as required by laws and regulations, or pursuant to compulsory requests from competent government authorities. Where permitted by law, when we receive such a disclosure request, we will require corresponding legal documents, such as a subpoena or investigative letter. We believe that, to the extent permitted by law, we should remain as transparent as possible about the information we are required to provide.
In the following circumstances, sharing, transferring, or publicly disclosing your personal information does not require your prior consent:
This product is currently available on the App Store in the United States and in mainland China. Depending on the service region you use, this product connects you to the corresponding servers. Data in the two regions is independent and physically isolated:
This product is operated in mainland China by LumiLoki (Chongqing) Tech Co.,Ltd. (Chongqing), and the applicable domestic filings have been completed.
Please note that this app uses third-party services that have their own privacy policies governing data processing. The third-party providers currently used, and their purposes, are as follows:
We will update the third-party service list above as product features and third-party services change.
This product has an App Store age rating of 4+ and is intended for users of all ages, including children. We understand that a large number of our users are children, so we have designed the following dedicated protections:
For users in the United States, we process personal information of children under 13 in accordance with COPPA, including obtaining verifiable parental consent before collection. For users in mainland China, we process personal information of minors under 14 in accordance with the Personal Information Protection Law of the People's Republic of China and related rules. We likewise require verifiable consent from a parent or other guardian at registration before creating and activating a minor's account, and we apply corresponding dedicated protections.
If we discover that we have collected a child's personal information without first obtaining verifiable parental consent, we will take steps to delete the related data as soon as possible. If you are a parent or guardian of a minor and have any questions about the minor's use of our services or the information provided to us, please contact us promptly using the details at the end of this Policy.
Our features, third-party services, or legal requirements may change, so we may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. For material changes, we will provide reasonable notice in accordance with applicable law, such as in-app notices, pop-ups, or on-page prompts. We therefore recommend that you review this page regularly for updates. If any changes are made, we will post the new Privacy Policy on this page, and the updated Policy will apply from the stated effective date.
This version is effective as of August 18, 2026, and applies to both the United States and mainland China service regions. If we later adjust service regions, data processing practices, or if legal requirements change, we will update this Policy to reflect the actual situation and notify you in advance as required by applicable law.
If you have any questions, comments, complaints, or requests about this Policy, our processing of personal information, or your personal information rights, please contact our support team at software@lumiloki.com or through the in-product feedback channel. We will do our best to respond and resolve your issue within the time required by applicable law.
