Bao Drop Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 19, 2026

Bao Drop ("the game") is a mobile game made by Digital Commerce Lab ("we", "us", "our"). This policy explains what information the game uses, why, and the choices you have.

Information you give us

None. The game has no accounts, no sign in, no chat and nothing to type in. We never ask for your name, email address, phone number or precise location.

Information stored on your device

Your game progress (levels, stars, scores, coins, dumplings found, settings and a game in progress) is saved only on your device. We do not receive it. Uninstalling the game deletes it. If you use Android backup, Google may back up this data to your Google account under Google's own terms.

Advertising (Google AdMob)

The game is free and shows ads from Google AdMob, a service of Google LLC. To show ads, measure them, limit how often you see them and prevent fraud, the Google Mobile Ads SDK collects and processes information from your device, including:

  • device identifiers such as your Android advertising ID and app set ID
  • your IP address, which can be used to estimate your approximate location (country or city)
  • how you interact with ads (views and taps)
  • device and app information such as device model, operating system, language, and app performance and diagnostic information, including crash data

Google may use this information to show personalized ads where the law and your choices allow it, and non-personalized ads otherwise. We ask Google to show only ads rated suitable for general audiences with parental guidance (PG).

Analytics (Google Analytics for Firebase)

To understand how the game is played and make it better, the game uses Google Analytics for Firebase, a service of Google LLC. It collects:

  • an app instance ID, a random number created for this installation of the game
  • app usage events, for example the game being opened, a level started, completed or failed, a score at the end of a game, a tool used, a daily reward claimed, an ad watched, and the screens you open
  • device information such as device model, operating system version, language, screen size and app version
  • approximate location (country, region or city) derived from your IP address. Firebase does not store your IP address

We never send your name, email address or anything you type. We look at this information only in summarized form, for example to see how many players come back the next day or which level is too hard.

Consent in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, the game shows Google's consent form (Google User Messaging Platform) before personalized ads or analytics storage are used. The game follows your answer using Google consent mode:

  • Until you answer, and if you do not consent, no advertising or analytics identifiers are stored or read on your device, and analytics only sends anonymous, cookieless pings without the app instance ID.
  • Ads may still be shown as non-personalized or limited ads, as Google allows.

You can change your choice at any time in the game's Settings under "Privacy choices".

How Google uses information

Google processes information from AdMob and Firebase under its own terms. See How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and the Google Privacy Policy. Firebase privacy details: firebase.google.com/support/privacy.

Your choices

  • Reset your advertising ID or delete it, or opt out of personalized ads, in your Android settings (Settings, then Google, then Ads, or Settings, then Privacy, then Ads, depending on your phone).
  • In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, change your consent in the game under Settings, then Privacy choices.
  • Delete all game data on your device by clearing the app's storage or uninstalling the game.

Children

The game is meant for players aged 13 and over. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information through the game, contact us and we will help remove it.

Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. The information described above is collected by Google through AdMob and Firebase. We do not share information with anyone else.

Security

Information sent to Google's advertising and analytics services is encrypted in transit.

Deleting your data

You can delete game data on your device at any time as described above. Analytics data is not linked to your name or contact details, only to a random app instance ID, and is deleted when it reaches the retention period set in Google Analytics. You can also email us with any request about your data, including deletion, and we will respond within 30 days. For information held by Google, use the controls in your Google account and Android settings.

Changes

If we change this policy we will update the date at the top of this page.
