Tunog Palayok privacy policy
Tunog Palayok is a Filipino fiesta game (Pukpok Palayok): you find a hanging clay pot by sound, with optional visual guides, in 40 rounds, a daily set of pots and a pass-the-phone party mode. It has no accounts, no sign-in and no developer server. This page explains what stays on your device and what the advertising software in the app may collect.
Data on your device
- Simple play statistics (rounds, pots broken, scores, stars per round, daily streak, party games), your daily-pots result, whether you finished the practice round, and the unfinished round you left.
- Your settings (sound, music, volumes, vibration, left-handed layout, how you find the pot, friends calling out, calm visuals) and your last party setup.
This data is saved in the app's private storage. We do not receive it, and we cannot see it. Clearing the app's data or uninstalling the app deletes it. The Settings screen also has a reset option for your progress and statistics.
Advertising and consent
Tunog Palayok shows optional ads through Google AdMob (the Google Mobile Ads SDK): a small banner on the main menu, an occasional full-screen ad after a finished round, and optional rewarded videos that you choose to watch to get one more swing or three more calls from the friends. No banner or automatic ad ever appears while you are playing a round. The only ad you can see during a round is an optional video that you choose to watch. The game works fully offline and without ads.
When ads are requested, Google's Mobile Ads SDK, operated by Google, may collect and use: your device's advertising ID, IP address (and so approximate location), device and OS information (model, OS version, language, screen size, network type), app information (package name, version), and ad interaction and diagnostic data such as impressions, clicks and crashes. Google uses this to serve and measure ads, to limit ad frequency, to prevent fraud and to improve its services, and may share it with its advertising partners. Where you have given consent, ads can be personalized; otherwise they are non-personalized or not shown.
Tunog Palayok itself does not read your advertising ID, does not send data to any server of ours, and does not combine ad data with game data.

Your choices
- Consent (EEA, UK and similar regions): on first launch, Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) may ask for your consent. No ads are requested until the rules for your region allow it. You can change your choice any time in Settings > Privacy options, which appears in the app when your region requires it.
- Advertising ID: in Android settings (Settings > Google > Ads, or Privacy > Ads) you can delete your advertising ID or opt out of ad personalization.
- No ads at all: you can play offline (airplane mode) and the game stays fully playable.
- This policy in the app: Settings > Privacy policy opens this page in your browser.
Permissions
INTERNETandACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: used by the ads software to load ads and check connectivity.com.google.android.gms.permission.AD_ID(and the relatedACCESS_ADSERVICES_*permissions): let the ads software read the advertising ID and use Android's privacy-preserving ad APIs.WAKE_LOCKandFOREGROUND_SERVICE: declared by Google's ads library for its own background ad tasks. Tunog Palayok itself does not run a foreground service.VIBRATE: optional vibration (the hot and cold feel), which you can turn off in Settings.
The app allows Android's standard backup, so your device may back up the local game data described above to your own Google account if you have device backup turned on. We have no access to those backups.
Data sharing, retention and security
We do not sell data and do not run a backend. Data handled by Google's ad software is governed by Google's policies linked above. Game data stays on your device and is removed when you uninstall the app or clear its data.
Children
Tunog Palayok is intended for users aged 13 and over. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has used the app, contact us and, where possible, clear the app's data and your device's advertising ID.
