Privacy Policy for Bamboo Blocks
Privacy Policy – FORTICO Games (Bamboo Blocks)
Last updated: 3 November 2026
This policy explains how the mobile games published by FORTICO on Google Play, including Bamboo Blocks ("the game"), handle information. Questions: Forticokg@gmail.com
1. Your game progress and the cloud save
Your game progress (levels, stars, coins, boosters, settings, and the name and avatar you choose) is saved on your device. If you are signed in to Google Play Games, a copy is also kept in your Google account with Google Play Games "Saved Games", so you can get it back on a new phone. We cannot see this copy; it is stored and protected by Google under its privacy policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy). Google Play Games also gives the game your Play Games player ID and gamer name. You can delete the cloud copy in your Play Games profile or your Google account settings.
2. Advertising (Unity Ads)
The game shows a small advertising banner at the top of the screen, and offers optional rewarded videos (you choose to watch a video to get a reward in the game). The banner and the videos are provided by Unity Ads (Unity Technologies). To show and measure ads and to prevent fraud, Unity Ads may collect and use:
- your device's advertising ID and other device identifiers,
- device and app information (for example device model, operating system, app version and language),
- your approximate location, worked out from your IP address,
- information about ad interactions (for example whether an ad was shown or watched to the end).
Unity processes this information under its own privacy policy: https://unity.com/legal/game-player-and-app-user-privacy-policy
You can reset your advertising ID or turn off personalised ads in your device settings (Settings > Google > Ads, or on some devices Settings > Privacy > Ads). Unity ads also show a privacy button where you can see and change your choices.
3. Consent in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland
If you are in these regions, Unity Ads asks for your consent before personalised ads are used, and you can change your choice later through the privacy button in the ad.
4. Game statistics (Google Firebase Analytics)
To understand how the game is played and to improve it (for example which levels are too hard, and how long players play), the game uses Google Firebase Analytics. It collects information such as:
- game events (for example level started, level won or lost, a reward video watched),
- device and app information and an app instance ID,
- approximate location derived from your IP address,
- the advertising ID, used to measure our own advertising campaigns.
This information does not include your name or contact details. Google processes it under its privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy
5. Google Play features
The game uses Google Play's in-app review and in-app update features. They are provided by Google Play under Google's privacy policy. The game does not receive your review or any personal data from them.
6. In-app purchases (Google Play)
You can buy items in the game (VIP Pass, Remove Banner Ads, coin and booster packs). Payments are handled entirely by Google Play: we never see or store your card or bank details. To give you what you bought and to check that a purchase is real, the game receives from Google Play the product you bought, the purchase time and a purchase token, and keeps a short record of them on your device. Google Firebase Analytics (section 4) also records that a purchase happened (the product and its price) so we can see which items players like. Google processes payments under its own privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy . The full terms (Terms of Use, with the purchase terms) are here: https://sites.google.com/view/fortico-privacy/terms
7. What we do not do
We do not ask for your name, email, contacts, photos, files or precise location. We do not sell personal information. Apart from the advertising in section 2 (banner and videos), the statistics in section 4 and the payments in section 6, we do not share information with anyone.
8. Children
The game is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
9. Keeping and deleting data
Game data stays on your device until you uninstall the game; the cloud copy stays in your Google account until you delete it there. Data used for advertising and statistics is kept and deleted by Unity and Google as described in their privacy policies; you can limit it with your device's ad settings. You may also email us at Forticokg@gmail.com with any request about your data.
10. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in Europe or the UK), you may have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, or to object to its use. Because we do not hold personal data ourselves, most requests are handled through Unity's and Google's tools and your device settings, but we will help with any request sent to Forticokg@gmail.com.
11. Changes to this policy
If the game changes (for example if we add other advertising partners), we will update this policy and change the date at the top.
12. Previous versions
Earlier versions of this policy are kept here: Privacy Policy -Previous versions
