Paw Pop Match Privacy Policy
Effective date: October 21, 2026
App: Paw Pop Match for Android (package com.vincentcheng.pawpopmatch) · Developer: DaoYi Studio · Contact: [email protected]
This policy explains what data the Paw Pop Match app ("the app", "we") and this website handle, why, and with whom it is shared. The app is a single-player puzzle game. It has no accounts, and we do not collect your name, email address, contacts, location, photos or any other personal information ourselves. We run no servers that receive data from the app.
1. Data stored on your device
The app keeps the following in its private storage on your device:
- your level progress and stars, and whether the Endless Vault is open
- the level or Endless Vault room in progress, so you can continue after closing the app
- your boosters, Paw Pass crowns and claimed rewards
- your best Endless Vault run
- whether you have finished the tutorial
- your settings: theme, sound, vibration and app language
- whether you own Remove Ads (a copy of the answer from Google Play)
We cannot see this data.
2. Android backup
If backup is turned on for your device, Android may include the game data above in your device backup, which Google stores in your Google account. When you set up a new device or reinstall the app with the same Google account, Android may restore it. These backups are made and kept by Google under the Google Privacy Policy; we have no access to them. You can turn backup off in your device settings (for example Settings → Google → Backup; the wording varies by device).
3. Advertising (Google AdMob)
The app shows full-screen ads between levels, provided by Google AdMob, a service of Google LLC. Ads are limited to Google's "PG" content rating. To serve ads, measure their performance and prevent fraud, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect and process:
| Data | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Advertising ID (Google Advertising ID) | Ad delivery, frequency capping, personalization where permitted, fraud prevention |
| IP address and approximate (country or city level) location derived from it | Ad delivery and regional compliance |
| Device information (model, operating system version, language, screen size) | Ad delivery and performance measurement |
| Ad interaction data (impressions, clicks) and diagnostic data | Measurement, fraud prevention, improving ad quality |
This data is shared with Google and, through Google's ad network, with advertising partners. How Google uses it is described in the Google Privacy Policy and in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
Consent in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland. If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, the app asks for your consent with Google's consent message (Google's User Messaging Platform, a Google-certified consent tool) when you open it, and requests no ads until you have made a choice. If you do not consent to personalized ads, Google may still show ads that are not personalized to you. Your choice is stored on your device, and you can review or change it at any time in the app under Settings → Privacy options.
You can reset or delete your advertising ID and opt out of ad personalization at any time in your device settings (Settings → Privacy → Ads, or Settings → Google → Ads). Buying Remove Ads, described below, turns the ads off entirely.
4. In-app purchase (Google Play Billing)
The app offers one optional purchase, "Remove Ads". Payment is handled entirely by Google Play; we never see your payment details. The app receives from Google Play only the product identifier and a purchase token that confirms the purchase belongs to your Google account, and it stores an "ads removed" flag on your device. Purchase records are kept by Google under the Google Privacy Policy and the Google Play Terms of Service. The purchase is restored on any device signed in with the same Google account.
5. This website
game.daoyidh.com/pawpopmatch is a static website on our own web server, reached through Cloudflare. It sets no cookies, runs no scripts and uses no analytics. To deliver the pages and protect them from abuse, Cloudflare and our server process your IP address and the details of each request (the time, the page requested and your browser type). Our server keeps these access logs for 14 days and then deletes them; Cloudflare handles them as described in the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
6. Data we do not collect
- No account, registration or login.
- No analytics or crash-reporting SDK other than the diagnostics built into the Google services above.
- No access to contacts, camera, microphone, precise location, files or photos. The app asks only for the Internet, network-state and vibration permissions, plus the advertising ID and billing permissions that the Google Mobile Ads and Google Play Billing libraries add.
7. Children
The app is a general-audience game and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal data through the advertising services, contact us and we will help you address it with the relevant provider.
8. Keeping and deleting your data
- Game data on your device stays until you delete it. Clear it in Settings → Apps → Paw Pop Match → Storage → Clear storage, or uninstall the app.
- Backup copies stay in your Google account until you delete them. Manage or delete device backups in your Google account (for example Settings → Google → Backup, or the Backups section of Google Drive).
- Advertising data is kept by Google according to its policies. Reset or delete your advertising ID in your device settings and manage your ad settings at myaccount.google.com.
- Purchase records are kept by Google Play for your Google account.
We hold no data about you that we could look up or delete. If you have a question or request about your data, write to us at the address below and we will help you with the relevant provider.
9. Security
All communication with Google services and with this website uses encrypted connections (HTTPS). Game data on your device is kept in the app's private storage, which other apps cannot access.
10. Changes to this policy
If we change how the app or this website handles data, we will update this page and the effective date above.
