Planet Pong Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 15, 2026
Overview
Planet Pong is a companion app for physical cup pong games that enhances gameplay with interactive features, powerups, and real-time multiplayer networking. Your privacy is important to us, and we are committed to minimizing data collection and being transparent about how any data is used.
Firebase and Networking
Planet Pong uses Firebase, a third-party service provided by Google LLC, for the following purposes:
- Anonymous Authentication: Devices are anonymously authenticated via Firebase Authentication solely to enable real-time multiplayer matches.
No personal identifiers such as names, email addresses, phone numbers, or contact lists are collected or required.
- Real-Time Networking: Firebase is used only to transmit match data between devices during an active game session.
- Temporary Use Only: All session data used for networking is temporary and discarded immediately after the match ends.
Firebase’s privacy practices are governed by Google’s privacy policy.
Local Data Storage
- Player stats, progress, and character information are stored locally on your device only.
- This data is not uploaded, shared, or accessible by any external service or third-party.
External Links
- The app includes links to external sites for purposes such as feedback (e.g., a Google Form) or app updates.
- These links are not used for tracking, advertising, or data collection beyond the explicit purpose stated.
- External sites are governed by their own privacy policies.

- No personal information (e.g., full name, email, phone number) is collected to use the app.
- The app does not access location data, contacts, photos, or other sensitive device data.
