Privacy Policy
Who we are
Plop: Marble Tilt Puzzle ("Plop", "the game") is made by zMa, an independent developer. This policy explains what information is handled when you play Plop on Android, and your choices.

The short version
- Plop has no accounts. We never ask for your name, email or other contact details.
- Your progress and settings are stored only on your phone.
- Optional video ads (to earn a hint) are provided by Unity's advertising services, which receive some device information to show and measure ads.
- Optional purchases are handled entirely by Google Play. We never see your payment details.
Information stored on your device
Plop saves your stars, unlocked levels, hints, settings (sound, vibration, shapes, theme) and whether you have supported the game. This stays on your phone and is not sent to us. Android may include it in your device's own backup to your Google account if you use Android backup; that backup is controlled by you and Google.
Uninstalling Plop deletes this information from your phone.
Ads
You can choose to watch a short video to earn a hint. These ads are served through Unity LevelPlay and its ad networks (currently ironSource Ads and Unity Ads). To show ads, prevent fraud and measure results, these services may collect information such as your device's advertising ID, IP address, approximate location derived from it, device model, operating system, language, and how you interact with ads.
Plop tells the ad services not to use your data to personalise ads unless you have agreed to it in a consent message. That message appears where the law requires it (for example in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland) once it is available for the game. Without your consent, you may still see ads that are not personalised, and the ad services may still use the information above to show and measure ads and prevent fraud.
You can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of ad personalisation, in your Android settings (Settings → Google → Ads, or Settings → Privacy → Ads on some phones).
How these companies handle data is described in their own policies: Unity Game Player and App User Privacy Policy.
Purchases
"Support Plop" purchases are processed by Google Play. Google handles your payment information under the Google Privacy Policy. Plop only receives confirmation that a purchase was made, so it can give you its reward.
Crash and performance data
The game is built with the Unity engine, which may collect anonymous technical data (for example crash reports, device model and performance information) to help keep the game stable. This does not include your name or contact details.
Children
Plop is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we will help remove it.
Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in the EU or privacy laws in some US states), you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal data, to object to or limit its use, and to withdraw consent. Because Plop itself does not collect personal data, most requests concern the ad partners above; you can contact them directly or write to us and we will help.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new effective date.
