Backlog Bloom privacy policy
Effective 6 October 2026. Google Play package: com.hezarfen.backlogbloom.
In short
Backlog Bloom is a calm library for the games you want to play. You can use it without an account. Your library stays on your device. The free version shows ads from Google AdMob; Backlog Bloom Pro removes them. We do not sell data.
Who we are
Backlog Bloom is published by ONOUR IMPRAM VENTURES LTD, a company registered in the United Kingdom under company number 17429906, which is responsible for the personal data described here. Contact: onour@onourimpram.com.
Data that stays on your device
The following is stored only in the app’s storage on your device and is not sent to us:
- Games you save: titles, saved web links, status and optional details such as session length and platform
- Your notes, ratings and completion dates
- Your garden and monthly memories, built from games you complete
Service providers
- Google AdMob shows ads in the free version. The data it processes is described under Advertising below.
- RevenueCat processes an anonymous app user identifier, purchase state and purchase events so that Backlog Bloom Pro can be bought and restored through Google Play. Your library is never sent to RevenueCat.
- Google Play processes the purchase itself under your Google account.
- Links you open are handed to your browser and that site's own privacy practices apply.
RevenueCat privacy policy: https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy. Google privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Advertising
The free version of Backlog Bloom shows ads from Google AdMob: a banner below the library tabs and, at most once every three minutes, a full-screen ad after you add a game.
Backlog Bloom Pro removes every ad. While Pro is active, the app does not load, request or show any ad.
To show, measure and limit ads and to prevent fraud, the Google Mobile Ads SDK collects the following and shares it with Google: your device’s advertising ID; your IP address, from which Google derives an approximate location; device and app information such as model, operating system, language and app version; diagnostic data such as crash and performance logs; and which ads you were shown and whether you tapped them. Google uses this data for advertising, analytics and fraud prevention under its own privacy policy.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, the app first shows Google’s consent form (User Messaging Platform) and requests ads only when Google’s consent status allows it. If you do not agree to personalised ads, Google can still show non personalised ads, which use the same technical data for delivery, frequency limits, reporting and fraud prevention but are not based on your past activity. Outside these regions ads may be personalised. To change or withdraw your consent, email us; you can reset or delete your advertising ID in Android settings.
Your library, notes, ratings, garden and memories are never sent to AdMob or to any advertiser.
How Google uses data from partner apps: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
What we do not do
- No account, no cloud sync in the current version, no analytics of our own and no data sale.
- No camera, microphone or broad storage access.
Permissions
- Internet, used for ads, purchases and links you open.
- Advertising ID (AD_ID), used by Google AdMob as described above. You can reset or delete it in Android settings.
- Notifications (POST_NOTIFICATIONS), only for the optional weekly reminder. It stays off until you turn it on in Settings, it is scheduled on your device and sends no data, and you can turn it off at any time in Settings or in Android settings.
- Start at boot (RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED), only to keep your weekly reminder scheduled after the device restarts.
Your choices and deletion
You can remove individual games from their details screen. Uninstalling the app removes all of its local data. For any question about your data, email us.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or object to the processing of your personal data. Send requests by email; we will not ask for more information than we need to respond. In the United Kingdom you can also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office.
Children
Backlog Bloom is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal data from them.
Changes
We update this policy before any change to the app’s data practices is released. The effective date is shown at the top of this page.
