Privacy Policy
ASI Inc. ("we") explains here what information the game "BREAKBLOOM" (the web, iPhone and YouTube Playables versions, the "Game") handles.
1. What no version collects
No version collects your name, email address, phone number, postal address, location, contacts or photos. There are no accounts.
2. What the web version (/breakbloom/play/ and /lab/quarrywheel/ on this site) stores on our server
- A random per-device ID, created in your browser and stored on our server only as a hash (it cannot be turned back).
- Play events: launch, stage started, stage cleared (seconds, stars, difficulty, attempts), where you stopped (share of tiles broken), out of balls, pause, and opening the settings, stage list or leaderboard. We use them only as daily counts and rates to improve the Game.
- Leaderboard entries: the nickname you enter (or "hide my name") and your clear time for each stage. Other players can see them on the leaderboard.
- Transfer code: only if you create one in Settings, we keep your progress (stages, stars, personal bests, difficulty) for 90 days. The code is stored as a hash.
- Error messages shown on screen, with email addresses, long numbers and anything after "?" in URLs removed before sending. Each kind is sent once.
- Visits to this site and taps on "Play", counted per day with the same hashed device ID.
- Your IP address, stored only as a hash and only for one hour, to limit how often requests can be sent.
Progress, settings and the ID are also kept in your browser (localStorage); clearing the site data removes them. The web game screen has no advertising and no third-party analytics.
3. The iPhone version
The iPhone version collects nothing. The Game runs entirely inside the app and makes no requests to our server. Progress and settings are stored only on your device and are deleted with the app. Crash reports and similar statistics may reach us from Apple if you allow sharing with app developers (Apple's privacy policy applies). If in-app purchases such as "Remove Ads" are added, Apple processes the transaction and we never receive your payment information. Before adding any feature that changes how information is handled, such as advertising, we will update this page.
4. The YouTube Playables version
When you play inside YouTube, your progress is saved with YouTube's own save feature for Playables and nothing is sent to our server. Google's privacy policy applies to YouTube. Ads inside YouTube are served by YouTube.
5. Analytics and visit records on this site
The pages of this site (/breakbloom/) use Google Analytics to understand how they are viewed. Google Analytics uses cookies and collects information that does not identify you personally; see Google's policies for details.
To answer enquiries properly and improve the site and our services, this site also uses its own first-party cookies to record when you first visited and the type and domain of the referrer, the first page you viewed, the order of pages and the number of visits, and whether phone, email or LINE links or contact forms were used (not what you typed). These cookies are issued by this site and are not sent to other companies. You can turn cookies off in your browser without affecting your use of the site.
6. Sharing
We do not sell or share this information with third parties, except where required by law.
7. Children
The Game does not collect personal information from children. Please do not use your real name as a leaderboard nickname.
8. Deletion
To have your leaderboard name or records removed, contact us below with the nickname shown on the leaderboard, the stage and the difficulty.
9. Changes
We will announce any change to this policy on this page.
