PRIVACY POLICY Effective Date: August 5, 2026 This Privacy Policy explains how Heartbroken (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information in connection with the mobile game Backrooms: Tape Escape (“the Game”). By downloading, installing, or using the Game, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy. 1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT We do not require users to create an account, provide their name, email address, phone number, or other directly identifying information to play the Game. The Game does not directly access or collect: • Your device camera footage • Your microphone recordings • Your contacts • Your precise location • Your photos or media files • Your messages • Your payment information The camera featured inside the Game is a fictional gameplay mechanic and does not access or use your device’s physical camera. However, the Game uses Google AdMob to display advertisements. The Google Mobile Ads SDK may automatically collect and process certain information, including: • IP address, which may be used to estimate general location • Advertising identifiers, such as the Android Advertising ID • App Set ID and other device or account-related identifiers • Device information, operating system information, and language • App launches, taps, ad views, video views, and other interactions • Diagnostic information, including performance data, loading time, crashes, and technical errors 2. HOW INFORMATION IS USED Information processed through Google AdMob may be used for the following purposes: • Displaying and delivering advertisements • Selecting personalized or non-personalized advertisements • Measuring advertisement performance • Limiting how often an advertisement is displayed • Analytics and service improvement • Detecting fraud, abuse, and invalid advertising activity • Maintaining the security and stability of advertising services We do not sell users’ personal information. 3. GOOGLE ADMOB The Game uses Google AdMob, an advertising service provided by Google LLC. Google and its advertising partners may collect, process, or share information in accordance with their own privacy policies and applicable laws. Depending on your location, consent choices, device settings, and applicable law, AdMob may display: • Personalized advertisements • Non-personalized advertisements • Limited advertisements • Advertisements required for basic technical delivery Personalized advertisements may be selected based on information such as previous app activity, advertising interests, or interactions with advertisements. Non-personalized advertisements are not selected based on a user’s previous behavior, but certain identifiers or local storage may still be used for purposes such as frequency capping, aggregated reporting, fraud prevention, and technical ad delivery. You can learn more about Google’s data practices by reviewing the Google Privacy Policy and Google’s advertising privacy information. 4. USER CONSENT AND PRIVACY CHOICES Where required by applicable law, users may be shown a consent form before advertising-related data is processed. Users may be able to choose between personalized and non-personalized advertising or manage other privacy options through the consent message displayed inside the Game. You may also manage or delete your advertising ID through your Android device settings. The location and name of these settings may vary depending on your device and Android version. 5. DATA SHARING We do not independently share personal information with third parties. Information may be collected or shared automatically by Google AdMob and its authorized advertising technology partners for advertising, analytics, security, reporting, and fraud-prevention purposes. Google and its partners are responsible for processing information under their own privacy policies and legal obligations. 6. DATA STORAGE AND RETENTION We do not operate a separate user account system or personal information database for the Game. Information collected through Google AdMob may be stored and retained by Google or its advertising partners according to their own retention policies, legal obligations, and legitimate business requirements. 7. DATA SECURITY We take reasonable steps to use reputable third-party services and protect information associated with the Game. Information collected by the Google Mobile Ads SDK is generally encrypted during transmission. However, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. 8. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY The Game is a horror game and is not designed or directed toward children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a child has provided personal information through the Game, please contact us. We will review the request and take appropriate action where reasonably possible. Advertising shown to users may be adjusted according to the Game’s selected target audience, the user’s region, applicable laws, and Google Play Families requirements. 9. INTERNATIONAL DATA PROCESSING Google and its service providers may process information on servers located outside the country in which you live. Data protection laws in those locations may differ from the laws in your country. Where required, appropriate safeguards may be used for international data transfers. 10. YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS Depending on your country or region, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to: • Request access to your personal information • Request correction or deletion of personal information • Object to or restrict certain processing • Withdraw previously provided consent • Opt out of personalized advertising • Submit a complaint to a data protection authority Because advertising-related information is primarily processed by Google, some requests may need to be submitted directly through Google’s privacy tools or account settings. You may contact us regarding any app-specific privacy request. 11. THIRD-PARTY LINKS AND ADVERTISEMENTS Advertisements displayed inside the Game may direct you to third-party websites, applications, products, or services. We do not control these third parties and are not responsible for their content, availability, security, or privacy practices.
