Your progress and settings are stored on your device. Advertising uses Google AdMob. Participation in the game’s single global leaderboard uses Google Play Games. This website has no advertising or analytics scripts.
Progress and settings on your device
The game stores your current run, score, best score, removal statistics, game settings, and leaderboard submission state in the app’s local storage. This lets you continue a run, retain preferences, and submit your best accumulated run score when the leaderboard is available. The game does not operate a separate billcorps player account or a billcorps score server.
Use Android’s app settings to clear Planet Removal’s storage to delete its local progress and preferences. This also resets the local checkpoint and pending leaderboard submission. The browser edition saves its own progress and preferences in your browser’s local storage on this device. Clear this site’s browser data to remove them. Android and browser saves are separate. Google service records are managed separately, as described below.
Advertisements
The Android game uses Google AdMob to display native ads in the menu, pause, replay, and leaderboard screens. An interstitial ad can appear when starting another run after losing. Ads require an internet connection. The browser edition does not request or display ads.
Google’s Mobile Ads SDK can collect and share the following service data:
- IP address, which may be used to estimate general location.
- App and ad interactions, such as launches, taps, and views.
- Diagnostic information about app and SDK performance.
- Device or account identifiers, including the Android advertising ID and app set ID where available.
Google uses this data for advertising, analytics, and fraud prevention. Its SDK documentation states that data is encrypted in transit. The data used depends on your device, consent choices, ad settings, and service configuration. See Google’s Mobile Ads data disclosure and Google’s privacy policy.
Your advertising choices
Where Google requires a privacy message, the game presents its consent flow before requesting ads. Where available, the game’s privacy options let you revisit those choices. Android also offers controls for resetting or deleting your advertising ID. You can review Google’s advertising controls in My Ad Center.
Advertising privacy choices do not delete the game’s local progress or scores previously submitted to Google Play Games.
The global leaderboard
The game has one global, all-time leaderboard through Google Play Games. When you connect, the game can submit your run score and retrieve leaderboard entries. Google associates submissions with your Play Games player identity. Rankings display player names, scores, and ranks according to Google Play Games profile visibility settings.
The game retains the pending best score, run seed, and associated Google Play Games player ID in local app preferences so it can submit the score for the matching account. Scores may be queued when pausing, returning to the menu, or backgrounding the game, and pending scores may sync on startup or resume for an already connected profile. The leaderboard displays public player names, ranks, and scores. It does not ask for your Google password. The game does not provide a billcorps or Play Games cloud-save service.
Android system backup and device transfer are enabled for the app. Android may include gameplay checkpoints, preferences, and leaderboard submission state in a backup or transfer according to your device and account settings. Manage those choices in Android's backup settings; see Android's backup documentation. Browser progress uses separate browser storage; downloaded save backups remain files you control.
You can play without participating in the leaderboard. Manage sign-in and profile visibility through Google Play Games, and use its settings to delete your Play Games profile or game data. See Play Games privacy and settings and deleting Play Games data. Removing local app data does not remove an already submitted leaderboard score.
This website
The website loads its images, styles, scripts, and browser game files from the same site. The playable game uses local storage for progress and preferences. It does not add tracking cookies, third-party fonts, analytics, sign-in, or advertising. The browser edition does not submit scores to Google Play Games. The hosting provider, Cloudflare, may process technical request information when serving the site, such as your IP address. Cloudflare’s handling of that information is described in its privacy statement.
Links to Google and GitHub take you to services with their own privacy policies. Contact or feedback you choose to publish on GitHub is handled by GitHub and may be public.
Retention and requests
Local game data remains on your device until removed through app or browser storage controls or otherwise removed by the device. Downloaded browser backups remain until you delete those files. Android system backups and transfers follow your device and account backup settings. Google controls the retention of advertising and Play Games service data under its policies. billcorps cannot delete Google's service records or Android backups by clearing your local save.
For privacy questions or requests, use the contact information published on the billcorps GitHub profile. Include the game name and the nature of your request. Do not post passwords, advertising identifiers, or private account details in a public discussion. Parents or guardians with a concern about a child’s information can use the same contact route.
