Privacy Policy

BitForge Empire · Last updated 26 July 2026

This policy explains what BitForge Empire (“the Game”, package com.liemuxstudio.bitforgeempire) collects, why, and what you can do about it. The Game is published by Liemux, a sole proprietorship registered in Belgium (enterprise number BE 0667.877.662), Van Geluwestraat 5, 8850 Ardooie, Belgium.

For anything in this policy, contact info@liemux.com.

Short version: the Game stores your game progress so you can keep it across devices, and it shows ads. It does not sell your data, and you can play as a guest without giving an email address.

1. What we collect

DataWhenWhy
Account identifier (a random user ID) Always, including guest play To attach your saved game to an account
Email address Only if you sign up by email or with Google To let you sign back in and recover your progress
Game progress (currency, businesses, upgrades, prestige, achievements, streak, settings, purchase entitlements) Continuously, saved automatically Cloud save and restoring your game on another device
Display name and score Only if you appear on a leaderboard To show global rankings — this part is public to other players
Advertising ID, device and app information, coarse location inferred from IP When ads are shown Collected by Google AdMob to serve and measure ads
Purchase records When you buy something To deliver what you bought and honour “Remove Ads”

We never collect: your name, address, phone number, precise GPS location, contacts, photos, files, microphone or camera input. The Game contains no social features beyond the leaderboard.

2. Payment information

In-app purchases are processed entirely by Google Play Billing. Your card and billing details go to Google, never to us. We receive only a confirmation that a purchase succeeded, so we can grant the item.

3. Who processes data for us

We do not sell or rent your data, and we do not share it with anyone beyond the providers above.

4. Advertising

Ads in the Game are rewarded video only — they play only when you choose to watch one. There are no forced interstitials or banners. Ads may be personalised based on your advertising ID. You can reset or delete that ID at any time in Android Settings → Privacy → Ads, which also lets you opt out of ad personalisation. Buying “Remove Ads Forever” removes ads from the Game entirely.

5. Legal basis (GDPR)

If you are in the European Economic Area or the UK, we process data on these bases:

6. Your rights

You can ask us to give you a copy of your data, correct it, delete it, restrict or object to its processing, or export it in a portable format. Email info@liemux.com and we will respond within 30 days. Deleting your account removes your save and leaderboard entry permanently and cannot be undone.

You also have the right to complain to your data protection authority. In Belgium this is the Gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit.

7. How long we keep data

Account and save data are kept while your account exists, and deleted within 30 days of a deletion request. Accounts with no sign-in for 24 months may be removed. Purchase records are kept for 7 years because Belgian tax law requires it.

8. Children

The Game is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them. If you believe a child has given us personal data, email info@liemux.com and we will delete it.

9. Data transfers

Our providers may process data outside the EEA, including in the United States. Those transfers rely on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses or an adequacy decision.

10. Security

Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS) and stored on infrastructure protected by row-level access rules, so one account cannot read another’s save. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. Changes

If this policy changes materially we will update the date at the top and, where the change is significant, note it in the Game. Continuing to play after a change means you accept the updated policy.
