Bolt Drop Privacy Policy
Last updated:
This policy explains how data is handled in the Bolt Drop game distributed through the Apple App Store and Google Play. The data controller is Simurg Apps (Ömer Koç, individual developer, Kadıköy, Istanbul). Our general Privacy Policy and the KVKK Notice also apply.
In short
- No account. The game never asks for your name, email or phone number.
- No server of our own. Your progress stays on your device and in your device's cloud backup.
- The game uses advertising (Google AdMob), analytics (Firebase Analytics) and in-app purchases (RevenueCat). These services process the technical data described below.
1. Game progress and settings
Your level progress, coin balance, workshop state and settings are stored on your device. So your progress survives a device change, this data is also written to your device's cloud backup: the iCloud key-value store on iOS and Android Auto Backup on Android. These backups live in your Apple or Google account and are subject to those companies' policies; we cannot access them.
2. Advertising (Google AdMob)
The game shows rewarded, interstitial and banner ads. To serve and measure ads and prevent fraud, Google AdMob may process:
- your device's advertising ID (IDFA on iOS, AAID on Android),
- technical information such as IP address, device model, operating system and language,
- ad impressions and clicks.
Your choices:
- iOS: the game asks for Apple's App Tracking Transparency (ATT) permission. If you decline, the IDFA is not shared and non-personalised ads are shown; the game works the same either way.
- EEA, UK and Switzerland: you choose your ad preferences in Google's consent form (UMP). You can change your choice later in Settings → Ad privacy settings.
- You can reset or delete your advertising ID in your device settings.
- The Remove ads purchase removes the game's forced ads.

3. Analytics (Firebase Analytics)
To balance and improve the game, we use Google Analytics for Firebase to measure in-game events such as level starts and completions, booster use, workshop building and daily tasks. These events are linked to a randomly generated app instance ID and device information; they do not include your name or email address. This data is deleted automatically according to Google's retention settings.
4. In-app purchases (RevenueCat)
Purchases such as the no-ads pack, starter pack and coin packs are made through the Apple App Store or Google Play. To verify and restore purchases, RevenueCat processes a randomly generated anonymous user ID and purchase information (product, transaction ID, date). We never see your card details.
5. Notifications and other
- Daily reward and task reminders are scheduled locally on your device; no notifications are sent from a server. You can turn them off in your device settings.
- The game may download fonts from Google Fonts on first launch; Google may process your IP address for that connection.
- The game does not access your location, camera, microphone, contacts or photos.

7. Children
Bolt Drop is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal data from children of that age. If you believe a child's data has been processed, contact us.
8. Your rights and deletion
Because Bolt Drop has no account that identifies you, we hold no personal data we can link to you. Delete the game to remove on-device data, and reset your advertising ID to unlink advertising data. See Account & Data Deletion for details. Questions: destek@simurgapps.com
