Effective 10 November 2026. Swarmbane is published by Caden Burleson. Questions: support@cadenburleson.com
Swarmbane has no account, no sign-in and no purchases. We do not run a server for the game and we do not collect, receive or sell any information about you. Your progress stays on your phone. The only outside service is Google AdMob, which shows a video ad when you choose to watch one.
Your progress (chapters, heroes, gear, companions, coins, gems, settings), the age range you pick for ads, and a local play journal are saved on your phone. The play journal is a list of up to 1,000 recent game events (screens opened, run results, upgrades) with a random installation code, kept for 30 days. It is never sent to us or to anyone else. You can pause, export or erase it in Settings, Data, Data and privacy. Run and error logs in the same place also stay on the phone unless you export and send them yourself. Deleting the game deletes all of it.
Ads in Swarmbane are optional reward videos. One plays only when you tap to watch it (for a revive, double coins, energy or a supply chest). Before any ad service starts, the game asks for your age range. If you answer "Under 16" or "Prefer not to say", the ad service is never started and no videos are offered.
If you answer "16 or older", videos are served by Google AdMob. We ask Google for non-personalized ads only, and the game does not ask for permission to track you across other apps and websites. To deliver and measure ads and to prevent fraud, Google's ad software may still process your IP address (which indicates your approximate region), device and advertising-related identifiers, ad interactions and diagnostic information. Where the law requires it (for example in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland), Google's consent form is shown before the first ad, and you can change your choice later in Settings, Data, Ad privacy. Google's policy: policies.google.com/technologies/ads and policies.google.com/privacy.
This version of Swarmbane sells nothing. There are no in-app purchases and no payment information is requested or processed.
Swarmbane is not directed at children under 13. Players who say they are under 16, or who do not give an age range, are never shown ads and the ad service is not started for them.
Turn videos off at any time in Settings, Data, Ad privacy. Erase the play journal in Settings, Data, Data and privacy. Delete the game to remove everything it saved. Because we hold no data about you, there is nothing for us to export or delete on our side; for data held by Google, use Google's own controls.
If the game changes what it does with data, this page will be updated with a new date before the change ships.
