Privacy Policy

1. Game data on your device

You do not need an account to play. Your best score, the sound setting and whether Remove Ads is active are stored only on your device. On iPhone and iPad, the first time version 1.1 starts it copies the best score and sound setting that an earlier version of the game saved on the same device. The game has no cloud sync, leaderboard, chat or online multiplayer, and we do not run a server for it, so we do not receive your scores or settings.

On iPhone and iPad, device backups may include this data according to your settings. On Android, the game turns app-data backup off, so the data is removed when you uninstall the game. The game does not ask for access to your camera, microphone, contacts, photo library or location.

2. No analytics or crash reporting

Dribble Stars does not include analytics or crash-reporting services. We do not receive information about how you play.

3. Advertising

The game is free and shows ads from Google AdMob: a banner at the bottom of the screen on the home screen and during a run, and sometimes a full-screen (interstitial) ad between runs, when you leave the Game Over screen. Full-screen ads never appear during a run. The AdMob SDK may process IP-based approximate location, device identifiers and, where permitted, the advertising identifier (the IDFA on iPhone and iPad, the advertising ID on Android), ad views and interactions, and diagnostic information, for ad delivery, measurement, fraud prevention and service improvement. On Android it may also use Android’s Privacy Sandbox advertising features where available. Whether ads are personalized depends on your choices and permissions.

When the game starts, and before any ad loads, it uses Google’s User Messaging Platform to show any consent message required in your region. On iPhone and iPad, iOS may then ask whether you allow tracking (iOS asks only once); the IDFA is available to advertising only if you allow it. Where required, Settings → PRIVACY CHOICES in the game lets you change your advertising choices. You can manage tracking permission at any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking, and reset or delete your advertising ID in your Android device settings. Declining does not stop you from playing; non-personalized or limited ads may still involve data processing.

The Remove Ads purchase turns off both the banner and full-screen ads. See Google’s advertising information, AdMob’s iOS data disclosure and AdMob’s Google Play data disclosure.

4. Remove Ads purchase

Remove Ads is a one-time, non-consumable in-app purchase. Apple processes it through the App Store on iPhone and iPad, and Google processes it through Google Play Billing on Android. We do not receive your payment-card details. The game processes the product identifier, the purchase state and the store’s confirmation to turn ads off, to restore the purchase and to turn ads back on if the purchase is refunded. Prices come from the store.

You can restore Remove Ads with Settings → RESTORE PURCHASES while signed in with the Apple Account or Google account that made the purchase. Apple and Google keep their transaction records under the Apple Privacy Policy and the Google Privacy Policy.

5. Support and this website

If you email us, we receive your email address, your message and any attachments you choose to send, and use them to answer and fix the issue. Please do not send passwords, payment-card details or unrelated personal information. These pages are hosted through Cloudflare, which processes request information such as IP address and browser details to deliver and protect the website. The Dribble Stars pages do not include advertising or analytics scripts. See Cloudflare’s Privacy Policy.

6. Sharing, storage and retention

Information may be processed by the providers described above to perform their services, or when needed to comply with law, protect rights or prevent abuse. Advertising providers may use information under their own policies and your consent choices. Information may be processed outside your country.

Local game data stays until you delete it or the game. Support emails are kept as long as needed to resolve the request and meet legal obligations. Advertising and store data follow the providers’ settings and retention policies; deleting the game does not delete data those providers already hold. We use reasonable safeguards but cannot promise absolute security.

7. Your choices and requests

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal information, to restrict or object to certain processing, including advertising use, or to data portability. Contact the publisher of your version: bananateamios@gmail.com for iPhone and iPad, bananateamandroid@gmail.com for Android. We may need limited information to find a record or verify a request; the game has no account that links your device to an email address. Some requests must be made to Apple or Google directly. You can also contact your local data protection authority.

You can change available advertising choices, manage tracking permission or your advertising ID, buy Remove Ads to stop ads, and ask us about data you sent to support. Deleting the game removes your best score from the device.

8. Children

Dribble Stars is a general-audience game and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us so we can take appropriate action. Parents and guardians can manage purchases and permissions with Apple’s family controls, such as Ask to Buy, or with Google Play parental controls and Family Link.

9. Updates and contact

We may update this policy as the game or its services change; the current version and its effective date are on this page. For privacy or support questions, contact Hien Nguyen at bananateamios@gmail.com (App Store) or Banana Team at bananateamandroid@gmail.com (Google Play).
