Drillshot is a mobile game made by Syntax Lab Technology. It needs no account and we run no server of our own. The full policy is below, one tap per section.
01Who we are
Drillshot for Android and iOS is published by Syntax Lab Technology and developed by Abdul Rafay. You can reach us at [email protected].
02What we never do
- We do not sell your data. We hold none to sell.
- The game has no analytics or crash reporting tools of ours in it.
- The game does not ask for your location, contacts, camera, microphone, photos or files.
- The game has no purchases and never asks for payment details.
03What the game stores
Your progress, coins, upgrades, missions, daily run results and settings are stored on your device. None of it is sent to us; we have no server that could receive it. With cloud save off, uninstalling the game or clearing its data deletes it.
04Cloud save
On Android, Settings has a CLOUD SAVE switch, on by default, that you can turn off. When it is on, the game signs in to your Google Play Games profile and stores one small save file in your own Google account, using the saved games feature of Google Play Games. The file holds coins, best depths, number of runs, upgrade levels, owned and selected skins, mission progress, daily run best, streak numbers, brick and boss totals, and the game mode you last picked. Sound, music, haptics and frame rate settings stay on the device. It holds no name, email, location, contacts or device identifiers.
Syntax Lab Technology has no server and cannot read anyone's save. Google receives your Play Games player ID as part of signing in, and handles it under Google's privacy policy.
Turning the switch off stops syncing from that device. It does not delete the copy already in your Google account. To delete it, open the Play Games app and go to Settings, "Delete Play Games account and data", or manage it at myaccount.google.com.
05Advertising
The game is free and shows ads served by Google AdMob. A full-screen ad can appear between levels, at most after every second cleared level and never more than once every two minutes. Rewarded ads are optional: you choose to watch one for a revive, a perk reroll, double coins for a level or a run, or the daily chest. To serve and measure ads, AdMob may collect:
- Device identifiers, including your advertising ID.
- Your IP address, which is used to estimate your general location.
- Ad interaction data, such as which ads were shown and which you tapped.
Google handles this data under its own policy. See how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
06Consent and your choices
In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and US states with privacy laws, the game asks for your consent or offers an opt out through Google's User Messaging Platform before showing personalized ads. You can change your choice at any time in the game's settings. You can also reset your advertising ID or limit ad personalization in your system settings, and manage how Google personalizes ads at adssettings.google.com.
On iPhone and iPad, iOS may show a permission prompt before an app can use your advertising identifier. If you decline, the game works the same and still shows ads, but they are not based on that identifier.
07Children
The game is rated 13+ and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
08Keeping and deleting your data
- On your device: progress stays until you uninstall the game or clear its data. Either one deletes it.
- Cloud save: the file stays in your Google account until you delete it in the Play Games app under Settings. We cannot see or delete it for you because we have no access to it.
- Advertising: Google keeps ad data under its own policy. Use the links above to reset your advertising ID.
- Email: if you write to us, we use your address and message only to reply, and delete the conversation if you ask.
09Security
The game sends nothing to us. Data that goes to Google for ads or cloud save travels over encrypted connections, and Google stores it under its own security practices.
10Changes
If this policy changes, we will update this page and the effective date at the top.
