Bullet in Pipe

Privacy Policy

A mobile puzzle game developed by Yunus Gündüz.

Last updated:

Your game progress stays on your device. Bullet in Pipe does not require an account and does not send your gameplay data to us. On Android and iOS the game shows ads from Google AdMob: a banner at the bottom of the screen and optional rewarded videos that unlock new level packs. It contains no analytics SDKs and no in-app purchases.

1. About this policy

This policy explains how Bullet in Pipe (the “game”), developed by Yunus Gündüz (“we,” “us,” or “our”), handles information when you play. It also explains how to contact us with privacy questions. It describes the current version of the game.

2. Information used on your device

The game stores the following information in its local application storage:

This information lets you continue playing and keeps your settings between sessions. The game also checks device graphics capabilities and measures frame performance locally to choose a suitable graphics quality. These checks are not sent to us.

We do not operate a server that receives your game saves. The game does not ask for your name, email address, location, contacts, photos, microphone recordings, or payment details.

3. Advertising, tracking, and sharing

The game shows banner advertisements and, only when you choose to watch one, rewarded video advertisements that unlock the next pack of levels (levels 31–50, 51–75, 76–90 and 91–100). Ads are provided by Google AdMob (Google LLC). The Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect and process your advertising ID and other device identifiers, approximate location derived from your IP address, ad interactions, and diagnostic information such as crash logs and performance data. This data is used for ad delivery, measurement, and fraud prevention. Ads need an internet connection; the levels you have already unlocked can be played offline.

Where required, Google's consent form (User Messaging Platform) asks for your consent before personalized ads are shown. On iOS, the system asks whether the game may use your device's advertising identifier (App Tracking Transparency); if you decline, you still see ads, but they are not personalized using that identifier. You can change these choices at any time: on iOS in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking, and on Android in Settings → Google → Ads, where you can also reset or delete your advertising ID.

The game has no in-app purchases, no subscriptions, and no account registration. We do not sell or share your local gameplay data. See Google's Privacy Policy and how Google uses information from apps that use its services.

Your app store and device operating system may independently process installation, diagnostic, or backup information under their own privacy policies and your settings. Those platform services are separate from the game's own data handling.

4. Retention and deletion

Your progress and preferences remain in local application storage until you reset or remove them. In the game, select Settings → Reset Progress (Level 1) and confirm to delete your level progress and stars. This option keeps your sound and graphics settings and the level packs you have already unlocked.

To remove all local game data, use your device's option to clear the app's storage or delete the app and its data. Offloading or archiving an app may keep its data. Copies retained or restored by your device's backup service are managed through that service's settings.

There is no game account to delete, and we cannot remotely access or erase the save stored on your device.

5. Security

Game saves are stored in the application's local storage and rely on the protections provided by your operating system. Keep your device secure and updated. No storage system or method of communication can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

6. Children's privacy

The game does not ask players of any age to provide personal information and does not include chat or public profiles. The game is not directed at children, and ads are not personalized for users identified as children through Google's settings. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us through a support request, contact us using the link below so we can address the request and delete the information where appropriate.

7. Contact and privacy requests
