Baradoku Privacy Policy
Baradoku is a capybara-themed puzzle game for Android, distributed through Google Play. This policy explains what data the game touches, what never leaves your device, and the choices you have. It is written in plain language on purpose.
1. Information we collect
Stored on your device
All gameplay progress - levels, scores, streaks, your capybara collection, and settings - is stored locally on your device and never uploaded anywhere. We cannot see it. The game uses no analytics SDK and no crash-reporting SDK, and no account is required to play.
Advertising
Baradoku shows interstitial ads and optional rewarded ads through Google AdMob. AdMob may collect device advertising identifiers and related device information and use them in line with Google’s advertising policies. Where required, consent is collected through Google’s User Messaging Platform (UMP) when you first launch the game.
Purchases
The game offers two one-time in-app purchases (remove ads, and the auto-X assist), processed by Google Play Billing. We receive purchase entitlements from Google Play so the game knows what you own. We never see or store your payment card details - Google Play handles all payment data.
Player profiles
If you create an optional player profile for the online friends feature, we store the profile data described in section 4. If you never create a profile, none of that data exists.
2. How we use information
We use the data above only to:
- run the game and keep your progress on your device;
- show ads, until you purchase “Remove ads”;
- unlock the purchases you have made;
- operate the friends feature, if you create a player profile.
We do not sell your data, and we do not build advertising or marketing profiles beyond what is described here.
3. Sharing and third parties
We do not share your data with third parties for their own marketing. The following processors are involved in running the game:
- Google AdMob (Google LLC) - serves ads and may process device advertising identifiers, per Google’s advertising policies.
- Google Play (Google LLC) - distributes the app, handles licensing, and processes all payments for in-app purchases, per Google’s privacy policy.
- Google Firebase (Google LLC) - hosts player profiles for the friends feature (Firebase Authentication and Cloud Firestore), if you create one.
4. Player profiles and friends
The friends feature is optional. If you create a player profile, it is powered by Google Firebase: an anonymous Firebase Authentication sign-in plus Cloud Firestore storage. We store:
- a randomly generated account identifier;
- the display name (username) you choose;
- your campaign level progress;
- your avatar selection;
- your friends list and friend requests.
Your username and campaign level are visible to players you befriend - that is the point of the feature. Because your username is shown to others, don’t use your real name if you don’t want it visible.
Friend invites may carry a friend code through a Google Play install referrer link, so that a friend who installs the game from your invite can be connected to you.
5. Data retention
- Local game data stays on your device until you clear the app’s data or uninstall the game.
- Player profile data, if you created a profile, is kept until you delete your account. Deletion removes the profile, the username reservation, and your friend links.
- Advertising and payment data is held by Google under its own policies; we do not control its retention.
6. Children’s privacy
Baradoku is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us at the address below and we will delete it.
7. Your rights and choices
Depending on where you live (for example under GDPR or CCPA-style laws), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or object to the processing of your personal data. You can:
- Ask us anything, or request access or deletion by emailing help@kyube.co;
- Manage or withdraw your ad-privacy choices through the in-app consent flow (provided by Google’s User Messaging Platform);
- Stop interstitial ads by purchasing “Remove ads”;
- Delete your player profile as described in the next section.
8. Deleting your profile
If you created a player profile, you can delete it in the app under Settings once player profiles are available, or request deletion at any time via our account deletion request page. Deletion removes your profile, your username reservation, and your friend links.
9. Contact
For any privacy question or request, email help@kyube.co.
If this policy changes, we will update the date at the top of this page.
