Grub is a virtual pet game that runs entirely on your device. We respect your privacy and have designed the app to minimize data collection while supporting a free-to-play experience through ads.
Grub itself does not collect personal information. However, we use Google AdMob to display ads, which may collect certain data as described below.
Grub displays ads through Google AdMob to support free access to the game. AdMob may collect:
This data is collected and processed by Google in accordance with Google’s Privacy Policy.
On iOS 14.5 and later, Grub will request your permission before allowing AdMob to track your activity across other apps and websites. You can decline this request and still use the app — you will see ads, but they may be less relevant.
You can change this setting at any time in Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.
All game data (your pet’s name, stats, inventory, and progress) is stored locally on your device only. This data is never transmitted to any server or third party.
If you delete the app, all game data is permanently removed.
Grub does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The ads displayed are configured to comply with applicable regulations. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us.
If we update this privacy policy, the changes will be reflected here with an updated date.
