Overview
Bubblez: Brick Breaker (“Bubblez”, “the App”) is a physics arcade puzzle game. This Privacy Policy explains how the App handles your information.
Summary
Bubblez does not collect personal information directly. To deliver ads and process the optional one-time “Remove Ads” purchase, the App embeds two Google SDKs that may collect a limited set of technical and advertising identifiers as described below. You can opt out of personalized advertising at any time using the in-app consent flow.
What the App Itself Stores
All game progress — score, coins, skill upgrades, settings, and the “Remove Ads” entitlement flag — is stored locally on your device using the platform’s standard application data storage. This data:
- Never leaves your device
- Is not accessible to other applications
- Is deleted when you uninstall the App or clear its data
Third-Party SDKs
Google AdMob (Advertising)
Bubblez serves rewarded video ads (after each completed match, opt-in) and occasional interstitial ads (throttled to at most one per 30 minutes and never within the player’s first three matches). Ad delivery is provided by Google AdMob, which may collect:
- Advertising identifier (Android Advertising ID, AAID)
- Approximate location derived from IP address (country / region only)
- Device information (model, OS version, language)
- App interaction data (ad impressions, clicks)
Google’s use of this data is governed by Google’s Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
Google User Messaging Platform (Consent)
On first launch the App displays a consent dialog (powered by Google’s UMP SDK) that complies with the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework v2 (TCF v2). You can choose to allow or deny personalized advertising. You may revisit and change this choice at any time via the in-app Settings menu.
Google Play Billing (Purchases)
The optional one-time “Remove Ads” purchase is processed by Google Play Billing. Google handles all payment information; the App never sees, stores, or transmits your payment details. The App only stores a local boolean flag indicating whether you own the entitlement.
Children’s Privacy
The App is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or the applicable age in your jurisdiction). Ad serving is configured with the “tag-for-child-directed-treatment” flag set to false; if you indicate the device user is a child via the consent flow, the App will request non-personalized ads only.
Your Rights
- Withdraw consent for personalized ads via the in-app Settings menu.
- Reset the advertising identifier via your device’s system settings (Android: Settings → Privacy → Ads).
- Delete all locally stored data by uninstalling the App or clearing its data via the Android system Settings.
Data Sharing
The App itself does not share any data with third parties. Data collected by the embedded Google SDKs is shared with Google as described in their respective privacy policies.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated if future versions of Bubblez introduce features that affect data handling. Material changes will be reflected with a new effective date and surfaced via the in-app consent flow on the next launch.
