Dreidel Ball Privacy Policy

Dreidel Ball is made by Croog Studios (Croog Inc., Teaneck, New Jersey, USA). We collect as little as possible. This policy explains what the game and our advertising pages collect and why.

What the game collects

• The name or nickname each player types in, their final score, the number of gelt coins collected, the game length (1, 3 or 8 nights), the number of players, and the device type (iPhone or Android). This is sent when a game ends so it can appear on the public online leaderboard.
• We also count how many times each billboard ad is shown and tapped. These counts are not linked to you or your device.

The game does not ask for your real name, email, phone number, location, contacts or photos. It has no accounts, does not use advertising IDs, and does not include third-party tracking or analytics tools.

Leaderboard names are public. Please use a nickname rather than your full real name. Names with offensive language are blocked, and we remove inappropriate names.

What stays on your device

Your last-used player names, the music on/off setting and a local list of top scores are saved on your device only, so the game remembers them next time.

Billboard ads

The billboards beside the table show images from businesses that bought an ad from us. Ads are images only. They do not track you. If you tap one between turns, it opens that business's website in your browser, and that website's own privacy policy applies.

Advertisers

If you buy a billboard, we collect your business name, contact email, ad image and link so we can review and run your ad. Payments are processed by Stripe; we never see or store your full card number. See Stripe's privacy policy.

Where data is stored and for how long

Leaderboard and ad data is stored with our database provider, Supabase, in the United States. Leaderboard entries are kept while the game is available; advertiser records are kept as long as needed for our business and tax records.

Children

Dreidel Ball is a family game for a general audience. It does not knowingly collect personal information from children. We ask players not to enter a real full name on the leaderboard. A parent can ask us to remove any leaderboard entry at the email below.

Your choices

To have a leaderboard name removed, or for any privacy question, email mike@croog.com with the name, score and approximate date. We'll respond promptly.

Changes

If we change this policy, we'll update the date above.
