We automatically collect standard technical information including IP address, browser type, device type, and general location (country/region). We use Google Analytics and Firebase Analytics to understand how people use the game.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to operate and improve the game, process payments, communicate with you about your account, and analyze usage patterns to make Ballpark better. We do not use your information for targeted advertising.
