This Privacy Policy explains how Amer Ali (“we”, “us”,
or “the Developer”) handles information in connection with the mobile game
Billy Runner (package name com.amerali.billyrunner, the
“Game”), available on Google Play. By downloading or using the Game, you agree
to the practices described below.
We built Billy Runner to be a fun, offline-friendly endless runner. We do not operate our own servers that collect your personal data, and we do not sell your personal information. The limited data described here is processed by trusted third-party services (primarily Google) so that ads, purchases, cloud save, and sign-in can work.

1. Information We Collect
Billy Runner stores most of your progress locally on your device. Some information is processed by third-party services to enable specific features:
| Category | Examples | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Device & advertising identifiers | Advertising ID (AAID), IP address, device model, OS version, coarse language/region | Serving and measuring ads (Google AdMob) |
| In-app activity | Ad interactions (views, clicks, rewarded-ad completions) | Ad delivery, frequency capping, and fraud prevention |
| Purchase information | Purchase receipts / tokens for in-app products (e.g. coin packs, VIP, remove-ads) | Processing and restoring purchases (Google Play Billing) |
| Account & cloud-save data (optional) | Google Play Games profile identifier; your saved game progress | Signing in and backing up / restoring your progress across devices |
| Social data (optional) | Basic Facebook profile info, only if you choose to connect Facebook | Optional social sign-in / sharing features |
| Locally stored data | Settings, high scores, coins/keys, unlocked items, tutorial state | Kept on your device only; not transmitted to the Developer |
2. How We Use Information
- To display advertising (banner, interstitial, and rewarded video) and to reward you for watching optional rewarded ads.
- To process, validate, and restore your in-app purchases.
- To let you sign in with Google Play Games and to back up / restore your saved progress via cloud save.
- To deliver optional local notifications reminding you to play (scheduled on your device; no personal data is sent to us).
- To operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Game, and to prevent fraud and abuse.
- To comply with legal obligations.
3. Third-Party Services & SDKs
The Game relies on the following third-party services, each governed by its own privacy policy:
Google AdMob (advertising)
We use Google AdMob to show ads. AdMob and its partners may collect and process device identifiers, IP address, and ad-interaction data to serve and measure ads. See the Google Privacy Policy and how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
Google Play Games Services (sign-in & cloud save)
If you sign in, Google Play Games Services provides your Play Games identifier and stores your saved game data in your Google account (app data). This is governed by the Google Privacy Policy.
Google Play Billing (in-app purchases)
Purchases are processed by Google Play. We receive a purchase token/receipt to grant your items; we do not receive or store your payment card details. See the Google Privacy Policy.
Facebook SDK (optional social features)
The Game includes the Facebook SDK for optional social sign-in and sharing. If you choose to use these features, Facebook may process information as described in the Meta/Facebook Data Policy. You are not required to connect Facebook to play.
4. Advertising & Your Choices
- Consent (EEA / UK): Where required, we use Google’s User Messaging Platform (UMP) to request your consent for personalized advertising before ads are shown.
- Personalized ads: You can opt out of ad personalization in your device settings under Settings → Google → Ads.
- Reset advertising ID: You can reset or delete your Advertising ID in the same Android settings screen.
- Remove ads: Billy Runner offers optional in-app products (such as VIP or “Remove Ads”) that disable banner and interstitial advertising.
5. Sharing & Disclosure
We do not sell your personal information. Information is shared only with:
- The service providers listed in Section 3 (Google, Meta/Facebook), acting as processors to provide their features;
- Authorities, when required by law, legal process, or to protect rights, safety, and the integrity of the Game.
6. Data Retention & Deletion
Locally stored game data remains on your device until you clear the app’s data or uninstall the Game. Cloud-save data remains in your Google account until you delete it. Data handled by third parties is retained according to their own policies.
How to delete your data:
- Clear local data: Android Settings → Apps → Billy Runner → Storage → Clear data, or uninstall the Game.
- Delete cloud saves: remove Billy Runner’s saved games from your Google Play Games account.
- You may also contact us at the email below to request deletion of any data associated with you, and we will act on your request as required by applicable law.
7. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. Purchases and sign-in are handled over secure connections by Google. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Children’s Privacy
Billy Runner is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to remove it. Where the Game is distributed to children, participating ad partners are instructed to serve only age-appropriate, non-personalized ads in accordance with Google Play’s Families policy.
9. Your Rights
Depending on where you live (for example, under the EU/UK GDPR or the California CCPA/CPRA), you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your personal information, to object to processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
10. International Data Transfers
Our service providers may process information in countries other than your own. Where such transfers occur, they are carried out under the safeguards required by applicable law (for example, standard contractual clauses).
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Significant changes may also be announced within the Game or on the store listing. Your continued use of the Game after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
