Privacy Policy for Escape Pompeii and weekendgamecraft.com

Effective date: November 13, 2026

Escape Pompeii (the “app”) is a game made by Weekend Gamecraft LLC (“we”, “us”). We also run the website weekendgamecraft.com (the “website”). This policy explains what information the app and the website handle and why. We have kept it as short and plain as we can.

1. The short version

• We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not run any servers of our own that collect your data.
• Your game, scores and settings are stored on your device.
• The app shows ads from Google AdMob. Google collects some information from your device to show and measure those ads. That is described in section 4.
• The website shows ads from Google AdSense, which uses cookies. That is described in section 5.

2. Information stored on your device

To play, the app saves the following on your device:

• your game in progress, your trades and your high scores;
• the name you type for your character (it can be any name you like; it is never sent to us);
• your settings: display mode, language and whether trades ask for confirmation.

This information stays on your device. We do not receive it.

Device backup. If backup is turned on for your device, Android may include this game data in your device backup, which is stored in your own Google account under Google’s terms. We cannot see that backup.

3. Information we collect

We do not collect personal information through the app. We do not use our own analytics or crash reporting.

4. Advertising (Google AdMob)

The app shows banner ads provided by Google AdMob, a service of Google LLC. To show ads, limit how often you see the same ad, measure how ads perform and prevent fraud, Google’s ad service may collect and use information from your device, such as:

• your device’s advertising ID (and, on newer Android versions, Android’s Privacy Sandbox ad features such as ad topics and ad measurement);
• your IP address, and an approximate location derived from it;
• information about your device and the app, such as device model, operating system version and language;
• how you interact with ads, such as views and taps.

Google may use this information to show personalized ads, where the law and your choices allow it. Google’s handling of this information is described in its own policies:

• How Google uses information from apps that use its services: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
• Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

We do not receive the information Google’s ad service collects about you, other than general reports (for example, how many ads were shown).

5. Our website (weekendgamecraft.com)

The website has no accounts, sign-ups or forms, and we do not use our own analytics on it. If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you write, and use them only to reply.

Server logs. Like most websites, the company that hosts ours may automatically record basic technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, the pages you request and the time of the request. This is used to run and protect the website.

Advertising (Google AdSense). The website shows ads provided by Google AdSense, a service of Google LLC.

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.
• Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this website and/or other sites on the Internet.
• Google may also collect your IP address, an approximate location derived from it, information about your browser and device, and how you interact with ads.

You can opt out of personalized advertising from Google in My Ad Center (formerly Ads Settings). You can opt out of some other vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info/choices. How Google uses information from sites that use its services is described at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

As with the app, we do not receive the information Google collects about you, other than general reports (for example, how many ads were shown).

6. Your choices

• Limit or reset ad tracking: in your device settings you can reset or delete your advertising ID and turn off personalized ads. On many devices this is under Settings > Privacy > Ads (the exact place depends on the device).
• Consent (EEA, UK and Switzerland): if you are in one of these regions, the app asks for your consent before personalized ads are shown, and you can change your choice later in the app. [CONFIRM once the consent prompt (Google UMP) is built, and say where in the app to change it.] The website also shows you a consent message from Google before cookies are used for personalized ads, and you can change your choice later with the “Privacy & cookie settings” link at the bottom of every page.
• US state privacy rights: if you live in a US state with its own privacy law (such as California), you can opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information for targeted advertising on the website. Use the “Do not sell or share my personal information” option that Google shows on the website.
• Cookies on the website: you can block or delete cookies in your browser’s settings. Ads will still appear, but they will not be personalized.
• Delete your game data: use “Clear Preferences & Game Data” in the app’s menu, or uninstall the app. Uninstalling removes all the data the app stored on your device.

7. Children

Escape Pompeii and this website are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

8. Security

Your game data stays on your device and is protected by your device’s security. The website and Google’s ad services use encrypted connections (HTTPS).

9. Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will post the new version at this address and update the effective date above. If a change is significant, we will also note it in the app, its store listing or on the website.
