DROP — Legal
Privacy Policy — DROP
Effective date: September 2026
DROP is an iOS game developed and published by Growlio. This Privacy Policy explains what information is involved when you play DROP, which third-party services the game uses, and what choices you have.
DROP does not require a user account. You can play the game without registering, signing in, or providing a name, email address, or any other contact details to us.
1. Information DROP Does Not Request
DROP does not request access to:
- Your precise location
- Your contacts
- Your camera
- Your microphone
Growlio does not operate an account system or a user database for DROP, and we do not ask you to submit personal information inside the game.
2. Advertising (Google AdMob)
DROP uses Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads to display interstitial ads and optional rewarded ads. Rewarded ads are optional — you choose whether to watch one.
To serve and measure these ads, Google and its advertising partners may process information such as:
- Device identifiers
- Advertising identifiers, where permitted
- Approximate location derived from IP address
- Ad interactions (for example, ad views and clicks)
- Device and app information
- Diagnostics and usage information
This processing is carried out by Google and its partners under their own privacy policies and terms. For details, see Google’s Privacy Policy and how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
3. Consent and Privacy Choices (Google UMP)
Where required, DROP uses the Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) to present advertising consent and privacy choices. Depending on your region and applicable law, you may be asked to make a choice about personalised advertising before ads are shown.
Where this option is available, you may be able to change your advertising and privacy choices again later from within the app. In addition, iOS provides system-level controls for tracking and the advertising identifier in your device settings.
4. Apple Game Center
DROP uses Apple Game Center for leaderboard functionality. If you use Game Center, the related data — such as your Game Center identity and submitted scores — is handled by Apple in accordance with Apple’s policies. See Apple’s Privacy Policy for more information.
5. In-App Purchases (Apple StoreKit)
DROP uses Apple StoreKit for the optional “Remove Ads” non-consumable in-app purchase. Payment information is handled entirely by Apple. DROP does not receive your credit card details.
6. Information Stored on Your Device
Local gameplay information — such as high scores, settings, and progress — may be stored locally on your device. This information stays on the device and is not sent to a Growlio server.
7. Third-Party Services
DROP relies on services provided by Google (AdMob / Google Mobile Ads and the User Messaging Platform) and Apple (Game Center, StoreKit, and the App Store). These providers have their own privacy policies, which govern how they process information:
8. Children’s Privacy
DROP is not specifically directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information in connection with DROP, please contact us at info@growlio.dev so we can look into it.
9. Data Retention
DROP mainly stores game data locally on your device. That data remains on the device until you delete it — for example by resetting progress where the app offers it, or by deleting the app.
Information processed by third-party providers such as Google and Apple is retained by those providers according to their own retention practices and privacy policies, which we do not control.
10. Your Privacy Rights (GDPR / EEA)
If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, data protection law may give you rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and the right to object to certain processing. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time with effect for the future. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.
Because DROP does not operate accounts and does not store your personal data on our own servers, requests about data processed for advertising or App Store purposes generally need to be directed to the relevant provider — Google or Apple. You can also contact us at info@growlio.dev and we will help where we can.
Where advertising consent applies to you, you can review and change your choices through the in-app privacy options where available, and through your iOS device settings.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time — for example if the game changes or if the services it uses change. When we do, we will update the effective date shown at the top of this page. Please review this page from time to time for the current version.
