Privacy policy for Tod Phod: Fort Tower Drop
Published by Silicon Insights. This policy covers the Android game Tod Phod: Fort Tower Drop (co.siliconinsights.todphod) and nothing else. Last changed: 19 September 2026.
Tod Phod keeps one file on this phone. It holds your stars, your mohurs, the puppets you own and which one is in hand, your honours, the day’s-mohurs run and the date it was last taken, your sound, music and buzz settings, how many towers you have started and cleared, how many advert breaks are counted and when the last advert was shown. Nothing in it leaves the phone, and the game itself sends nothing anywhere. Clearing progress in Settings, or uninstalling the game, removes it.
There is no account, no sign-in and no way to buy anything.
ADVERTS. The game shows adverts from Google. You may watch one by choice to carry on from the ring that caught you, or to take Nazar or Kavach for a tower. A full-screen advert may come between towers, at most on every third counted try, never in your first five towers and never within four minutes of another full-screen advert. From the second fort, even-numbered towers carry a small advert in a strip along the very bottom, once you have cleared five towers; the strip is kept clear of every button whether or not an advert arrives. With no connection the game plays exactly as it does with one.
Google’s ads software in the app (the GMA Next-Gen SDK) collects and shares, according to Google: the device’s IP address (which may be used to estimate its general location), taps, app launches and video views, performance and diagnostic information, the Android advertising ID and app set ID, and, if applicable, other identifiers of accounts signed in on the phone. Google says it uses this data for advertising, analytics and fraud prevention, and that it is encrypted in transit. Where the law requires it, Google’s consent message asks you before any ad is requested, and Ad privacy choices then appears in Settings so you can change your answer. You can reset or delete the advertising ID in your phone’s settings. How Google uses and keeps this data: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
PERMISSIONS, read from the app’s own build and listed in full:
- internet and network state: to fetch adverts
- the advertising ID, twice over: asked for by Google’s ads software
- basic phone state: added by Google’s ads software
- wake lock and a foreground service: added by the library Google’s ads software uses to do its work in the background
- vibrate: for the buzz when the strings are cut; the Buzz switch turns it off
