PopPaws Privacy Policy
Privacy information for PopPaws: Block Puzzle Blast
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how PopPaws ("we", "us", or "our") handles information in connection with the PopPaws mobile game ("App").
We respect your privacy and aim to be transparent about the information that may be processed when you use the App.
By downloading or using PopPaws, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
2. Information We Collect
PopPaws does not require you to create an account, provide your name, phone number, email address, contacts, photographs, or other directly identifying information to play the game.
The App stores certain gameplay and application settings locally on your device, such as game progress, preferences, and similar gameplay state.
Depending on how advertising services operate on your device, third-party advertising providers may process certain technical and advertising-related information.
3. Information Stored Locally on Your Device
PopPaws may store gameplay-related information locally on your device. This may include:
- Level and gameplay progress
- Game scores and stars
- Coins, lives, boosters, and other game state
- Application preferences and settings
- Advertising consent preferences, where applicable
This locally stored information is used to provide core game functionality and maintain your progress.
If you uninstall the App or clear its application data, locally stored game information may be deleted by the Android operating system.
4. Advertising and Google AdMob
PopPaws uses Google Mobile Ads / Google AdMob to display advertisements, including banner, interstitial, rewarded, and app-open advertisements.
Google Mobile Ads may automatically process information such as IP address, user interactions with the App, diagnostic and performance information, and device or advertising identifiers for purposes such as advertising, analytics, and fraud prevention.
For more information about Google's privacy practices, please review:
5. Advertising Identifiers and Personalized Ads
Depending on your Android device settings, applicable laws, available consent choices, and advertising configuration, advertising identifiers may be used by Google and its advertising services to provide and measure advertisements.
You can manage or reset advertising-related controls through the privacy and advertising settings available on your Android device.
Where legally required, advertising consent choices may be presented or applied before certain forms of personalized advertising are enabled.
6. How Information Is Used
Information processed in connection with PopPaws may be used for the following purposes:
- To provide and operate the game
- To save and restore gameplay progress
- To display advertisements
- To measure advertising performance
- To prevent fraud and abuse
- To diagnose technical and performance problems
- To improve reliability and functionality
- To comply with applicable legal obligations
7. Information Sharing
We do not sell or rent your personal information.
Information may be processed or shared with service providers that support the operation of the App, including advertising providers such as Google AdMob.
Such providers may process information for advertising, analytics, fraud prevention, security, and technical operations, subject to their own terms and privacy policies.
We may also disclose information where required by applicable law, legal process, court order, or governmental request.
8. Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect information handled by PopPaws and to limit unauthorized access or misuse.
Information transmitted by third-party services may be protected using security measures provided by those services. For example, Google states that data collected by its Google Mobile Ads SDK is encrypted in transit using Transport Layer Security (TLS).
However, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
9. Data Retention
Gameplay information stored locally remains on your device until you delete the App, clear its application data, or otherwise remove that information.
Data processed by third-party services such as Google may be retained according to their own policies, technical requirements, legal obligations, and legitimate business purposes.
10. Children's Privacy
PopPaws does not intentionally request personal information directly from users through account registration, forms, or similar features.
We do not knowingly ask children to submit personal information to us.
If you believe that personal information has been provided to us by a child in a manner that should not have occurred, please contact us so that we can review the matter and take appropriate action.
Advertising practices for users who may be children are also subject to applicable Google Play, advertising, and legal requirements.
11. Your Privacy Choices
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights regarding personal information processed about you.
These rights may include requesting information about data processing, requesting correction or deletion where applicable, objecting to certain processing, or withdrawing consent where consent is the applicable legal basis.
Because PopPaws does not require user accounts and gameplay data is primarily stored locally, we may not maintain a developer-controlled database containing your gameplay profile. Requests concerning third-party advertising data may need to be directed to the applicable service provider.
12. Third-Party Services
PopPaws may use third-party services to support advertising, application operation, security, and related functionality.
| Service | Purpose | Privacy Information |
