Duckfall Privacy Policy

Effective date: November 4, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use Duckfall, a mobile game developed and published by Selbold Studios.

Duckfall does not require an account or login and does not operate its own user account database or game server.

1. Local Game Data

Duckfall stores game progress and settings locally on your device.

This may include game progress, purchased or unlocked ducks, upgrades, collected Ducktefacts, Golden Eggs, rebirth progress, gameplay statistics, audio settings, and timestamps used to calculate offline income.

This locally stored game data is not uploaded to a Duckfall-operated server. Depending on applicable consent and your privacy choices, separate events describing certain interactions with the game may be sent to Google Firebase Analytics as explained in Section 4.

Local game data may be removed if you clear the app's storage or uninstall the app.

2. Advertising

Duckfall uses Google AdMob to provide optional rewarded advertisements.

Rewarded advertisements are voluntary. Players may choose to watch an advertisement in exchange for an in-game reward.

Google Mobile Ads may automatically process certain information, such as device or advertising identifiers, approximate location derived from an IP address, interactions with advertisements, app interactions, and technical or diagnostic information.

Depending on your location and consent choices, advertisements may be personalized or non-personalized.

Duckfall does not directly receive or store sensitive information such as your credit card number, contacts, private messages, photos, or precise GPS location through its advertising system.

3. Advertising Consent

Duckfall uses Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) to obtain and manage choices for advertising and, where required, Google Firebase Analytics.

For users in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom and Switzerland, Google's European regulations consent form is used to manage applicable advertising and analytics-storage consent within the same interface. The form may offer separate controls for different processing purposes. You can revisit the choices using Options → Privacy & Ad Choices, where this control is available.

Advertising and analytics are separate purposes: accepting advertising does not by itself mean that you accepted analytics. Declining analytics does not prevent gameplay, in-app purchases or voluntary rewarded advertisements, subject to applicable advertising requirements.

Outside regions where Google's European regulations consent form applies, Analytics may run automatically where permitted by applicable law; players can disable it using Options → Analytics Privacy Choice. Other privacy controls may also be available through Android and Google.

4. Optional Analytics and Game Usage Data

Duckfall includes Google Firebase Analytics to help us understand how the game is used and to improve usability, gameplay and the reliability of advertising and in-app purchases.

Firebase Analytics collection is disabled at app startup. Duckfall waits until Google's UMP system has checked the applicable privacy settings. For users covered by the European regulations consent form, analytics collection is activated only if the analytics-storage purpose is granted. If consent is denied, missing, or cannot be verified, Duckfall does not send its Firebase Analytics gameplay events.

Outside the areas to which this European consent mode applies, Firebase Analytics may be enabled without an additional consent dialog where permitted by applicable law. Users in these regions can turn off these statistics under Options → Analytics Privacy Choice. Where Google's privacy options are available, players can change their analytics decision using Options → Privacy & Ad Choices. Duckfall does not display an additional automatic analytics pop-up.

Disabling analytics stops future Duckfall Firebase Analytics gameplay-event collection, but may not immediately remove data previously processed by Google. Gameplay, purchases and rewarded-ad bonuses are not dependent on analytics being enabled.

When Analytics collection is enabled, Firebase Analytics may process:

Duckfall does not intentionally send personal names, email addresses, payment credentials, full locally stored game progress or purchase tokens as custom Analytics event parameters. Google may process additional technical and automatically collected data as documented for Firebase Analytics.

Data collected by Firebase Analytics is processed by Google under the applicable Firebase/Google terms and retention settings. See the Google Privacy Policy and Firebase Privacy and Security.

5. In-App Purchases

Duckfall offers optional digital purchases using Google Play Billing.

These purchases may include permanent premium content, premium ducks, supporter features, or other digital game content.

Payments are processed by Google Play. Duckfall does not receive or store your credit card number, bank account information, or other payment credentials.

The app may receive purchase status information from Google Play so that purchased content can be unlocked, acknowledged, and restored. When analytics is enabled, purchase-related events may also be measured through Firebase Analytics.

6. Supporter Features

Duckfall may offer a permanent Supporter Pack.

Depending on the current version of the game, supporter features may include ad-free reward claims, exclusive permanent game content, an exclusive duck, a permanent Ducktefact, or other supporter-related benefits.

The purchase itself is handled through Google Play Billing.

7. Third-Party Services

Duckfall uses services provided by Google, including Google Play, Google Play Billing, Google AdMob, Google User Messaging Platform (UMP), and Google Firebase Analytics, subject to the analytics choices described in Section 4.

These third-party services may process information in accordance with their own privacy policies, terms and applicable legal obligations.

For more information, refer to Google's Privacy Policy.

8. How Information Is Used

Information processed through third-party services may be used to provide and restore purchases, deliver rewarded advertisements, measure advertisement performance, prevent fraud and abuse, maintain security, diagnose technical problems, comply with legal requirements, and provide consent choices where required.

Where allowed by applicable consent and privacy settings, game interaction events are used to understand feature engagement and improve Duckfall.

Duckfall does not sell your personal information.

9. Data Sharing

Duckfall does not operate a business that sells player information or locally stored game progress.

Certain information may be transmitted to Google when you use Google Play Billing, AdMob, UMP, or, subject to the choices described above, Firebase Analytics.

Such processing is governed by the applicable Google service terms and privacy policies.

10. Data Retention

Game progress stored directly by Duckfall remains on your device until you delete app data, clear its storage or uninstall the app.

UMP consent-mode choices and, where applicable, your separate local Analytics opt-out are stored on your device. You can change supported privacy settings in Options. Clearing app data can reset these choices; the European consent form may appear again when needed.

Information processed by Google services may be retained according to Google's retention policies, service configuration and applicable law. Withdrawing consent does not necessarily delete information already processed by Google.

11. Data Security

Duckfall is designed to minimize the personal information handled directly by the game.

Information transmitted to Google services uses security measures provided by Google and the Android platform, including encrypted network connections where applicable.

No electronic storage or transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

12. Privacy Rights in the EEA and UK

If you are located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction that provides similar privacy rights, you may have rights concerning personal information, including access, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability, or objection to certain processing.

Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect processing that occurred before consent was withdrawn.

Because Duckfall does not operate its own user account database, requests concerning advertising, payment, analytics or device-related information may also require coordination with Google, which operates the relevant services. You can contact the developer using the address below.

You may have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

13. Legal Basis for Processing

Where applicable under European privacy law, processing may be based on your consent, performance of a contract such as delivering a purchased digital item, compliance with legal obligations, or legitimate interests such as security and fraud prevention, subject to the applicable requirements.

Where European privacy law requires consent for Firebase Analytics storage, Duckfall relies on the corresponding choice made through Google's UMP consent form. In other regions, analytics collection is subject to applicable laws and opt-out choices. Advertising personalization requiring consent is only used where the necessary consent has been obtained.

14. International Data Transfers

Google and its service providers may process information in countries outside your country of residence. Where required by law, such transfers are subject to appropriate legal safeguards provided by the relevant service provider.

15. Children's Privacy

Duckfall is not specifically designed for or directed toward children under the age of 13. The intended audience is teenagers and adults.

Duckfall does not provide its own account system and does not knowingly collect personal information directly from children through such a system.

16. Your Choices

You may choose not to watch rewarded advertisements, decline or change advertising consent where available, change applicable advertising and Firebase Analytics consent under Options → Privacy & Ad Choices where available, disable game statistics under Options → Analytics Privacy Choice elsewhere, manage privacy settings through Google or your Android device, and delete locally stored Duckfall game data by clearing its storage or uninstalling the app.

17. Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated when Duckfall's features, advertising services, payment systems, analytics, third-party services or legal requirements change.

Updated versions will be published on this page, with the effective date revised accordingly.
