This Privacy Policy describes how Shape Drop ("the App", "we", "us") collects, uses, and shares information when you use our mobile game on iOS.
Account & Profile Information
- If you sign in with Google, we collect your Google account ID and display name to identify your account and enable cross-device progress syncing.
- If you sign in with Apple, we collect the unique identifier Apple provides for your account, and your name/email only if you choose to share them with the App, to identify your account and enable cross-device progress syncing.
- A randomly generated in-game username and a referral code unique to your account.
Gameplay Data
- Your progress: diamond balance, best scores, unlocked balls/themes, equipped items, milestones, and other gameplay statistics (shapes passed, games played, spins used, streaks, etc.).
- If you choose to appear on the public leaderboard, your username and score are visible to other players.
Purchase Information
- If you make an in-app purchase or subscribe, Apple's In-App Purchase (StoreKit) processes the transaction. We receive only the information needed to grant your purchase (product ID and purchase confirmation) — we do not receive or store your payment card details, which are handled entirely by Apple.
Advertising Information
"The App shows ads using Google AdMob, which may work with mediation partners such as Unity Ads to show and measure ads. AdMob and its mediation partners may collect your advertising ID (IDFA, subject to Apple's App Tracking Transparency permission) and other device/usage information to show and measure ads, and to prevent fraud. See the policies below for details."
Analytics & Automatically Collected Information
- The App uses Google Firebase Analytics to record gameplay events (such as games played, scores, and purchases made in-game) along with standard technical information (device type, app version, crash logs), used to understand how the App is used and to keep it working reliably.
- To save and restore your game progress across devices.
- To process purchases and subscriptions and grant the correct in-game items.
- To show advertisements and measure their performance.
- To operate the public leaderboard and referral system.
- To maintain and improve the App, and to detect/prevent fraud or abuse.
The App uses the following third-party services, each governed by its own privacy policy:
- Apple In-App Purchase (StoreKit) — [https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/](https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/)
- Sign in with Apple — [https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/](https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/)
- Google Firebase / Firestore — [https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy](https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy)
- Google AdMob — [https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads](https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads)
- Unity Ads — [https://unity.com/legal/game-player-and-app-user-privacy-policy]

- Google Sign-In — [https://policies.google.com/privacy](https://policies.google.com/privacy)
Your gameplay data is retained as long as your account is active. You can permanently delete your account and all associated data at any time directly within the App: go to Settings > Delete Account, confirm, and re-authenticate to verify it's really you. This immediately and permanently deletes your account record, your saved progress, your leaderboard entries, and your referral code from our servers — deletion is not a temporary deactivation and cannot be undone.
Deleting your account does not cancel any active subscription, since subscriptions are billed and managed entirely through your Apple ID — manage or cancel those separately in your device's Settings > [your name] > Subscriptions.
If you're unable to delete your account in-app for any reason, you may instead email us at the address below from the email address associated with your Google/Apple sign-in, along with your in-game username, so we can verify and locate your account; we will delete it within 30 days of a verified request, except where retention is required by law (e.g., purchase records).
Shape Drop 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 us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.
You can delete your account and all associated data at any time directly within the App via Settings > Delete Account.
You can reset advertising personalization through your device's Tracking settings (Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking) and ad personalization settings.
You can request access to or correction of your data by contacting us.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
