Eight Seconds Late · Privacy
Effective November 12, 2026
The short version
- The game has no accounts and no chat. It never asks for your name, email address or phone number, and it doesn't read your contacts, photos, files, camera, microphone or GPS location.
- The game has one kind of ad: an ad you choose to watch for one more go after a run ends. It is served by Google AdMob. Google's software collects data to serve and measure it, including your device's advertising ID and IP address. This is the one place where data about your device leaves the game. See Ads.
- There is nothing to buy in the game.
- We collect no play statistics of our own.
- Your progress stays on your phone.
Who we are
Eight Seconds Late is an arcade game published as Vibezilla Games and developed by IscoviciLabs (iscovici.com). This policy covers the Eight Seconds Late apps for Android and for iPhone and iPad, and this site.
What we collect
Nothing. The game has no account system and no analytics or statistics software of ours. Apart from the ad described below, it sends nothing about you, your phone or your play to us or to any other company. It contains no social-media software, and its art, sounds and font are packed inside the app.
Ads
When a run ends, the game may offer one more go in exchange for watching an ad. The ad plays only if you tap that button. There are no banners, no ads during play, and no ads that appear unasked.
The ad is served by Google AdMob. Google's software in the app collects and shares, for advertising, analytics and fraud prevention:
- your device's advertising ID and app set ID, and identifiers related to accounts signed in on the device, where applicable;
- your IP address, which may be used to estimate your general location;
- how you interact with ads and the app, such as app launches, taps and video views;
- diagnostic information, such as app launch time, hang rate and energy use.
Google handles this data under the Google Privacy Policy; see also how Google uses information from apps that use its services. We don't receive your advertising ID.
Your choices. Where the law requires it (such as in the European Economic Area, the UK and some US states), Google's consent form asks you first, and a privacy choices button on the game's title screen lets you change your answer. If you decline, ads may still appear, but they are not personalized. On Android you can reset or delete your advertising ID in your phone's settings. On iPhone and iPad, the game can use the advertising identifier only if you allow tracking in Apple's prompt, and you can change that in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking. You can also simply never tap the ad button: the game plays the same without it.
What stays on your phone
The game saves your progress on your phone, in the app's own storage: your loot, the perks and hats you have bought, the hat you are wearing and your best score. None of it is uploaded or synced by the game, and we never see it.
If your phone backs up its apps to your Google or Apple account, that backup may include the game's saved progress. The backup is Google's or Apple's service, under their privacy policy, and we have no access to it.
Deleting your data
What the game saves stays on your phone, so you are in control of it. Uninstalling the game deletes everything it saved. To start over without uninstalling on Android, open your phone's Settings → Apps → Eight Seconds Late → Storage and tap Clear storage (the exact names vary a little between phones). We hold no data about you, so there is no copy we could find and delete. Data collected for ads is held by Google; you can manage it through your Google ad settings and your phone's advertising ID controls.
Permissions
- Vibration, for the short buzz when a punch lands.
- Internet and network state, to load the ad. The game itself plays offline.
- Advertising ID and Android's ad services, used by Google's ad software as described under Ads. Google's ad software also asks for background-work permissions it uses for its own tasks.
None of these is a permission the phone prompts you for on Android. On iPhone and iPad, Apple's tracking prompt may appear, as described under Ads. The game asks for no others.
The app stores
Google Play and Apple's App Store handle downloads, updates and any reviews or feedback you send through them, under their own privacy policies. We receive only what the stores give every developer: aggregated install statistics and, from phones set to share them, crash and performance reports.
Children
Eight Seconds Late is made for players aged 13 and up and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. The ad data described above is handled by Google.
This site
This site uses no cookies, scripts or analytics, and loads nothing from another site. It is hosted by Cloudflare, which processes IP addresses to deliver and protect it.
If you write to us
If you email us, we use your message and your email address only to answer you, and we don't share them with anyone.
Changes
If a future version of the game collects anything more, or anything different, this page will say exactly what and who handles it before that version is released, and the date above will change.
