Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2 August 2026

HOPPY TRAILS ("the app") is developed by Abdul Hakeem ("we", "us"). This policy explains what the app collects, why, and who it is shared with.

The short version

The game is fully playable without an account and without a network connection. If you never sign in, we hold no information that identifies you. Signing in is optional and exists only to put a name against a leaderboard score.

What the app collects

If you sign in with Google (optional):

• Your Google account identifier, display name and profile picture URL.

These are used for one purpose: to show your row on the leaderboard. They are stored in Google Firebase Firestore. If you never sign in, none of this is collected — an anonymous, locally generated identifier is used instead, which is not linked to you.

Advertising (all users):

• The app shows ads supplied by Google AdMob. AdMob collects your device's advertising ID and related technical data in order to serve and measure ads. What AdMob collects and how it is used is governed by Google's own policy: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

Stored on your device only, never transmitted:

• Your best scores, coin balance, unlocked characters and themes, and settings. Removing the app removes all of it.

What the app does not collect

• No name, email address or phone number unless you choose to sign in.
• No contacts, photos, files, microphone, camera or precise location.
• No analytics or crash-reporting service is integrated.
• Nothing is sold to anybody, ever.

Who your information is shared with

Only Google, as the provider of the services the app uses: Firebase (leaderboard storage), Google Sign-In (authentication) and AdMob (advertising). We do not share it with anyone else.

Leaderboards are public

If you sign in and set a score, your display name, profile picture and score are visible to every other player. Do not sign in if you would rather that were not the case — the game is complete without it.

Children

The app is not directed at children under 13. It is not enrolled in Google Play's Designed for Families programme, and it serves standard advertising.

Your choices and rights

• Sign out at any time from the leaderboard screen. The app returns to an anonymous identity immediately.
• Reset your advertising ID or opt out of personalised ads in your Android settings, under Settings → Privacy → Ads.
• Delete your leaderboard entry: email us at ahm.mhd78@gmail.com from the address on the Google account you signed in with, and we will remove it.
• Delete everything held on your device: uninstall the app.
• If you are in the EEA or the UK, you were asked to consent to personalised advertising when you first opened the app, and you can withdraw that consent at any time by the same route.

Changes

If this policy changes, the "last updated" date above changes with it. Material changes will be noted in the app's release notes.
