Privacy policy

Effective 18 October 2026

The short version. Burger Empire has no accounts and no servers of ours. Your progress is stored on your phone and never sent to us. The game shows ads through Google AdMob, and Google collects some data to do that, as described below.

Who we are

Burger Empire (the “game”) is an Android game published by WP Methods (“we”, “us”). You can reach us at contact@wpmethods.com.

What stays on your device

The game saves your progress and settings on your phone so you can pick up where you left off:

Your restaurant: money, upgrades, staff and the current stage.
Your settings, such as sound and music.
A backup copy of the save, in the game's private storage, in case Android clears the game's web storage.

None of this is sent to us or to anyone else. We run no servers for the game, and there are no accounts, sign-ins or analytics. If you use Settings → Export save, the file goes only where you choose to share it.

The game is free and shows ads provided by Google AdMob: banner ads, occasional full-screen ads, and optional rewarded ads that you can choose to watch for in-game cash. To show and measure these ads, the Google Mobile Ads SDK in the game may collect and use:

Your device's advertising ID.
Your IP address, and the approximate location that can be worked out from it.
Device and app information, such as the device model, Android version, language and app version.
How you interact with ads, and diagnostic information about how the SDK is working.

Google acts as an independent controller of this data and handles it under its own privacy policy. Google's pages How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and Google Mobile Ads SDK and Google Play data disclosure explain this in detail. We do not receive this data and cannot see it, apart from the overall ad earnings that AdMob reports to us.

Your choices about ads

Consent. Where the law requires it (for example in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and some US states), the game asks for your choice using Google's consent form before any ads are requested.
Android settings. On your device, go to Settings → Privacy → Ads to delete your advertising ID or opt out of ads personalisation. Ads will still appear, but they will be less relevant to you.
Google account. You can manage personalised ads at adssettings.google.com.
Rewarded ads are always your choice. The game never makes you watch one.

Updates through Google Play

When a new version is available, the game can ask Google Play to offer you the update. This uses Google Play's own update feature, so Google Play handles that process under its privacy policy. We receive nothing from it.

Children

Burger Empire is made for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 in the European Economic Area). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and think a child has given personal information to Google through the ads in the game, please contact Google using the links above, or contact us and we will help where we can.

How long data is kept, and deleting it

We keep no data about you. Your saved progress lives on your phone and is removed when you uninstall the game or clear its storage in Android's Settings → Apps → Burger Empire → Storage. For data held by Google, use the controls above.

International processing

Google may process ad-related data on servers in countries other than your own. This is covered by Google's policy linked above.

Changes to this policy

If we change how the game handles data, for example by adding a new service, we will update this page and the date at the top before the change reaches the game.
