You do not have to necessarily save your data in any of the clouds. ***

Save the data on the external sd card in custom folder

*** and access that data from the game everytime. Make sure to include the if(!data.null) exception handeling for security purpose.

Any data that is saved on an android device is associated to the application. When the application gets uninstalled, so does its data.

When an application is updated however, the data precists on the device and only the application gets updated.

To allow data to persist across devices or installs you need to use a remote server to store the data, such as Google's Saved Games Service.
