Loop Dodge — Privacy Policy (iOS)

Last updated: September 19, 2026 — describes the upcoming version 2.1.4 Appodeal release. Earlier released versions use Google AdMob, as noted below.

Loop Dodge ("the app") is a free mobile game. This policy explains what data is collected when you play, by whom, and why. The short version: the game has no player accounts, and complete saves and photos stay on your device. Gameplay analytics and online content updates are disabled in this release. The app includes optional rewarded ads mediated by Appodeal, which play only when you choose to watch one, and optional in-app purchases processed by Apple.

Data stored on your device only

Your progress (best score, gems, unlocked skins, trails, themes and tracks, relics, missions, daily streak, settings) is stored locally on your device and is never uploaded as a complete save. Gameplay statistics stay on your device. If you unlock the "My Photo" ball skin, the photo you pick is processed and stored only on your device — it is never sent anywhere. The app also keeps a small local log of unexpected errors (error message, file name and line number, app version, platform) to help it recover gracefully. The full log stays on the device and is not sent to a gameplay analytics service.

Gameplay analytics and online content updates

This release does not load GameAnalytics, send gameplay analytics events, fetch remote gameplay settings, or download game-content updates. There is no gameplay analytics consent prompt or setting in this release. Game updates are delivered through the app store.

Disabling these features does not delete records already received during earlier testing. For questions about those records, contact martinkhch@gmail.com. Advertising and purchase services described below have their own data handling.

Advertising (Appodeal)

The upcoming release uses Appodeal to mediate optional rewarded ads, with BidMachine, AppLovin, Unity Ads and Liftoff Monetize (Vungle) included as advertising partners. An ad plays only when you choose an offered reward, such as a revive, doubled gems, daily gems, streak repair or a custom skin. There are no banner or automatic interstitial ads. You can play without watching ads.

Appodeal and the participating advertising providers may process device and app identifiers, your IP address and approximate region, device model, operating system, language, ad views and interactions, and diagnostic information. They use this data to deliver and measure ads, prevent fraud and operate their advertising services. This advertising reporting is separate from the disabled gameplay analytics feature. The game does not request access to precise device location or send your photo or complete saved progress to advertising providers.

The app requests non-personalized ads. This does not eliminate data processing needed for contextual ad delivery, measurement and fraud prevention. Before starting the ad SDK for its first preload, version 2.1.4 requests Apple's App Tracking Transparency permission when iOS allows a request and no choice has been recorded. iOS may suppress the prompt when tracking is restricted or requests are disabled. Declining permission prohibits tracking across other companies' apps and websites, including through alternative identifiers, and keeps the advertising identifier (IDFA) unavailable. Regional consent does not override that choice. When both your Apple permission and applicable regional choices allow it, advertising providers may use device data across apps for advertising measurement. Ads stay non-personalized either way, and declining tracking does not restrict gameplay. You can change permission in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking. Restart the game after changing privacy permissions so old cached ads are not reused. Apple's SKAdNetwork may also be used for privacy-preserving attribution.

Where consent or privacy choices are required, the app uses Appodeal’s Stack Consent Manager before requesting ads. If that process cannot complete, ads remain unavailable and gameplay continues. Where offered, revisit Settings → Ad privacy options to change your choices. Ads are paused for the rest of that app session after opening these options, so cached ads cannot be reused with older privacy choices. Restart the app to request new ads under the updated choices.

Read the providers' policies for their data handling, retention and privacy rights: Appodeal, BidMachine, AppLovin, Unity, and Liftoff Monetize (Vungle). Earlier released versions use Google AdMob; those versions remain subject to Google’s privacy policy.

In-app purchases (Apple)

The app offers optional in-app purchases — gem packs and the Ultra Pass — that are never required to play. Purchases are processed entirely by Apple through the App Store using your Apple Account. We never see or store your name, payment card, billing address or any other payment details; Apple handles the payment and gives the app only a purchase confirmation. The app keeps a small local record of completed transaction identifiers on your device so that a purchase is not granted again when the store redelivers the same transaction. Restore Purchases in the shop restores eligible permanent purchases, such as Ultra Pass. Consumed gem packs are not restored as new gem grants. Apple's handling of your purchase data is described in App Store & Privacy and the Apple Privacy Policy.

Device permissions

Version 2.1.4 requests Apple's tracking permission before the first ad preload where iOS permits, as described above; declining it never limits gameplay. It may ask for notification permission to send an optional local reminder about your daily streak; the reminder is scheduled on your device and no server is involved. If you choose the "My Photo" skin, the photo you select is used only for that skin and stays on your device. Rating prompts, if shown, use Apple's standard in-app review dialog.

Children

The app is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. Ad requests are always non-personalized, and the advertising identifier is only available to advertising providers if you allow Apple's tracking request, as described above.

Data deletion

This release has no player accounts or first-party save server. You can clear your locally saved progress from inside the app at any time using Settings → Reset all progress (which also deletes your custom photo and the local error log), and uninstalling the app removes all locally stored data. Eligible permanent purchases stay associated with your Apple Account and can be restored after a reinstall; consumed gem packs cannot. Resetting local progress does not delete store or advertising-provider records. For provider data, use the privacy rights and contact options in their policies linked above, or contact us for help directing a request. For records from earlier gameplay-analytics testing, use the contact listed in that section above.

Changes

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted at this address with a new "last updated" date.
