Cascabel — Delete your data
Cascabel is published on Google Play by Yabin Alejandro Lagunes Cuevas (The Alchemist Code). The app has no accounts: we never ask anyone for a name, email or password.
Data stored on your phone
- Open Cascabel.
- Go to Settings › Delete all my data.
- Tap Delete to confirm.
Your exchanges, participants, hints, rules, draws, wish list and settings are erased immediately and for good, and pending reminders are cancelled. Uninstalling the app also removes them.
Backup files you exported yourself are not touched: they are yours, wherever you saved or sent them. If your phone backs up to your Google account, Android may still hold an older device backup; you can delete it in your Google account under Google Drive › Backups.
Deleting your data does not cancel or undo a Premium subscription or purchase: it stays linked to your Google Play account. To cancel a subscription, use Google Play › Payments & subscriptions.
Links you already sent
Each private link carries its own data and we never received a copy, so we can't delete it for you. A link stops being reachable when it is deleted from the conversations it was sent to. If you received a link and want your name or hints removed, ask the organizer.
Data held by the services the app uses
Crashlytics, Analytics and AdMob tie their records to anonymous identifiers, not to your name. Google Play keeps your purchase under your Google account.
| Service | What is kept | For how long |
|---|---|---|
| Firebase Crashlytics | Crash reports | 90 days, then deleted automatically |
| Google Analytics for Firebase | Usage events linked to an app-instance ID | Deleted automatically after the retention period set in Google Analytics |
| Google AdMob | Ad interactions and the Android advertising ID | Under Google's retention policy. Reset or delete the advertising ID in Android settings › Privacy › Ads |
| Google Play | Your purchase, purchase history and payment details | Kept by Google under its privacy policy. We never receive your payment details |
We don't run servers that store your data and keep no copy of your exchanges or purchases. Our web host keeps standard access logs (IP address, browser and time) of the link pages, never their content. For anything else, write to [email protected].
