Hippo Wash
Privacy Policy
Last updated November 6, 2026
Hippo Wash is a game about washing hippos on an African river. It is made by an independent developer, Anzhela Filippova. The game has no accounts and never asks for your name or e-mail. The only data that leaves your phone is what the ad service needs to show ads.
Your game stays on your phone
Washed hippos, coins, outfits, seasons and settings are stored only on your device. We have no server and do not receive them.
Ads
The game shows ads from Google AdMob, and only when you tap a button to watch one for a reward. To show and measure ads, Google may collect:
- your device's advertising identifier (IDFA), only if you allow tracking when iOS asks;
- general device information, such as model, iOS version, language and approximate location from the IP address;
- how you interact with ads, such as views and taps;
- crash, performance and other diagnostic data.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the UK or Switzerland, the game asks for your consent before any personalised ads are shown. You can change your choice at any time in the game under Menu → Ad privacy choices.
How Google uses this data: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
Purchases
The Hippo Club and the wardrobe are bought through Apple's App Store. We never see your payment details. The game only learns which item your Apple ID owns, so it can give it to you.
Reminders
If you allow notifications, reminders such as "Lulu has come to the wash" are scheduled on your device. Nothing is sent from us.
Children
The game is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Your choices
- Allow or refuse tracking: iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
- Change ad consent: Menu → Ad privacy choices in the game.
- Skip ads altogether: the Hippo Club turns every ad button into a plain button.
- Delete all game data: delete the app.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be published at this address with a new date.
