Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-10-02

This Privacy Policy applies to the Android app "Among the Realms: Block Puzzle Journey" (package name com.alexokhmat.blockkingdom, published on Google Play) and to this website. The app is developed and published by Alex Okhmat ("we", "our", or "us"), the developer named on the app's Google Play page. Among the Realms is a block puzzle game built around a region-by-region travel arc. This policy explains, in plain language, what data the app collects, why, who it is shared with, and how you can control it.

1. Information we collect

We collect the minimum information needed to keep the game stable, balanced, and fair. We never sell your data to third parties.

  • Anonymous gameplay analytics — modes played, levels completed, scores, boosters used, screens viewed. Collected via Google Analytics for Firebase. No personal identifiers are attached.
  • Crash and performance reports — collected via Firebase Crashlytics so we can identify and fix bugs that cost you a run.
  • Advertising signals — our ad mediator (Google AdMob) and its partners (Meta Audience Network, Pangle, and PubMatic-bridged DSPs) may collect device identifiers (such as the Android Advertising ID), IP address, approximate location derived from IP, and ad-interaction data to serve and measure ads. See each provider's policy below.
  • Device and app information — device model, operating system version, app version, language, and a randomly generated app-instance identifier used by Firebase. These are not linked to your name or contact details.
  • Cloud save data — when you sign in to Google Play Games, your progress (currencies, completed levels, treasury, atlas, achievements, streak chain) is stored in your personal Saved Games slot under your Play Games account. We do not access or store this data on our own servers.
  • Local storage — all settings, saved game state, daily streak, and unlock flags live on your device only. Clearing app data wipes them.

2. What we do not collect

We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, contacts, location, photos, microphone, or camera. The game has no in-app purchases, no account system, and no message inbox.

3. How we use the information

Collected information is used to:

  • Diagnose crashes and frame-rate problems on specific device models
  • Tune level difficulty based on completion and rage-quit rates
  • Decide which features to deepen, simplify, or remove
  • Measure the effectiveness of weekly events and daily challenges
  • Serve relevant advertisements that fund the free version

4. Third-party services

Among the Realms shares the data described in section 1 only with the following types of parties: analytics and crash-reporting providers, advertising networks and ad-mediation partners acting as service providers, and Google Play Games Services for cloud save. We do not sell your personal data and we do not share it with data brokers. Each service operates under its own privacy policy linked below.

5. Data retention

Anonymous analytics data is retained according to Google's default Firebase retention (currently 14 months) and then aggregated. Crash reports are retained for 90 days. Cloud save data persists in your Play Games account until you delete it from Play Games settings. Local app data persists on your device until you uninstall or clear app data.

5a. Consent (EEA, UK, Switzerland)

Where required by law, the app shows a Google User Messaging Platform consent form on first launch so you can accept or decline personalized advertising and related data use. You can change your choice at any time from Settings → Privacy options inside the app (shown when applicable).

6. Children's privacy

Among the Realms is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

7. Your choices

  • Advertising ID — reset or opt out of personalized ads in Settings → Google → Ads (Android).
  • Analytics — limit usage and diagnostics sharing in your device settings; the app respects this.
  • Cloud save — sign out of Google Play Games to disconnect; your local save remains.
  • Local data — clear app data or uninstall to wipe everything stored on your device.
  • Access, correction, or deletion — because we do not hold accounts or identifiable profiles, we usually cannot link analytics data to you. You may still email the address below to ask about, or request deletion of, any data we may hold about you; we will respond within 30 days.

8. Data security

All data transmitted to third-party services uses TLS-encrypted connections. We do not run our own backend, so there is no central database for an attacker to target — the trade-off is that gameplay, analytics, and ad routing are operated by the providers above and governed by their security postures.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as the product evolves or as new third-party services are integrated. Material changes will be reflected in the date at the top of this page. Continued use of the app after a change constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
