Legal & Privacy

1. Scope and publisher

This policy applies to the Road Rush '85 browser game and this website. The game is published by BakheetCo (the “Publisher”). For support, privacy questions, or requests concerning your feedback, contact bakheet003@gmail.com.

2. Data stored by the game

The game does not create an account. Ordinary play does not transmit gameplay records to the Publisher. It stores two functional records in your browser's local storage so the game can remember your progress on that device:

• road-rush-hi-score: your highest local score.
• road-rush-progress-v1: unlocked level, stars, completions, and per-level best score, time, combo, and crash results.

This information stays in that browser. It is not synchronized, used to identify you, combined with an advertising profile, or sold.

3. Hosting information

The website is hosted by Vercel. Like most hosting providers, Vercel may automatically process technical request information such as IP address, browser or device details, requested URL, timestamps, and security logs to deliver and protect the service. That infrastructure processing is governed by Vercel's Privacy Policy.

4. Why technical processing occurs

Local storage is used only to provide the saved-progress feature you request by playing. Hosting request information is processed to deliver the website, maintain reliability, prevent abuse, investigate security problems, and meet legal obligations. Where a legal basis is required, these activities rely on providing the requested service and the legitimate interests of operating and securing it, subject to your applicable rights. Vercel hosts the website, feedback API, and private feedback storage.

5. Cookies, analytics, advertising, and payments

The current game code sets no cookies and loads no advertising network, behavioral analytics, social-media tracker, payment processor, or external font. If any of these services are introduced, this policy will identify the provider, purpose, information involved, retention, and available choices before that change goes live. Non-essential storage or personalized advertising will not be activated where consent is required until a suitable consent mechanism is available.

6. Retention and your control

Saved scores and progress remain in local storage until you clear them, clear the website's storage through browser settings, or the browser removes them. Because these records never leave your device, the Publisher cannot retrieve or restore them.

Optional feedback is removed from the active feedback collection after 90 days by a daily cleanup, so removal may take up to 91 days. Temporary abuse-prevention markers are removed after 24 hours by the same daily process, within 48 hours of creation. You can delete a submitted response immediately using its on-page deletion control while that page remains open. After closing the page, contact the Publisher with your receipt to request deletion. Deletion does not erase technical hosting logs maintained separately by Vercel under its own retention practices.

7. Children

The game is general-audience entertainment and is not specifically directed to children under 13. It does not knowingly collect personal information from children. A parent or guardian should supervise a child's use of the internet. Advertising or account features will not be enabled for younger audiences without the age-appropriate safeguards required for that feature and location.

8. Security and international access

The Publisher minimizes risk by not operating an account or gameplay database for this version. Hosting systems may operate across countries to make the game available internationally. No internet service can promise absolute security or uninterrupted availability.

9. Changes and questions

Material changes will be posted here with a new effective date. Depending on applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, or restriction of information you supplied, and raise a concern with your local data protection authority. Send privacy and support requests to bakheet003@gmail.com. Include your feedback receipt when possible; do not send sensitive identity documents.

10. Optional playtest feedback

If you choose to send feedback, the game submits your fun and controls ratings, difficulty assessment, understanding of the goal and fuel system, replay intention, and optional comment. It also includes the build version, latest level and outcome, control type, and broad duration and crash-count ranges. It includes a coarse label indicating a recognized Google Search playtest campaign link, or "unattributed". This label stays only in page memory until you choose to submit feedback; it does not create a cookie or save campaign information in browser storage. It does not ask for your name, email, exact age, or location. Do not include personal or sensitive information in a comment. Feedback is optional and intended for players aged 13 and over.

Your response is sent only when you select the consent checkbox and press Send feedback. We use it to understand bugs, improve controls and difficulty, and decide which features to develop. We use the campaign label to count submitted responses from a recruitment link, not to identify players or measure all visits, race starts, or repeat play. Shared or altered links can make attribution incomplete or inaccurate. The feedback record does not include your full page URL, referrer, raw campaign parameters, or advertising click identifiers, and this feature does not send conversions to Google. Where consent is the legal basis, you may withdraw it through the deletion control or by contacting us, without affecting earlier lawful processing. Responses are private to the Publisher and its hosting provider; they are not sold or publicly posted.

To limit repeated submissions, the server derives a temporary keyed identifier from your request's IP address and time interval. The feedback collection does not store the raw address or browser fingerprint. Vercel may separately process request information as described above. A random submission receipt prevents accidental duplicates; a deletion key stays in page memory and is not saved to your browser's persistent storage.

1. Agreement and eligibility

By accessing or playing Road Rush '85, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the game. If you have not reached the legal age to agree to these Terms where you live, use the game only with permission and supervision from a parent or guardian.

2. Free game license

The Publisher gives you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to play the free web version for lawful, non-commercial entertainment. Ownership of the game, code, artwork, audio design, text, branding, and other original material is not transferred to you.

3. Acceptable use

You may not:

• attack, overload, disrupt, scrape, or attempt unauthorized access to the service;
• misrepresent the game or its material as your own;
• redistribute, sell, sublicense, or commercially exploit the game or its assets;
• remove ownership notices or use the game to infringe another person's rights; or
• circumvent technical protections, except where applicable law expressly permits it; or
• generate invalid traffic, automate ad interactions, or manipulate rewards if ads are introduced.

Feedback must be lawful and must not contain another person's private information, threats, or abusive material. By submitting a response, you permit the Publisher to review and use it to improve the game. Your private response will not be published as a testimonial without separate permission.

4. Originality and third-party status

Road Rush '85 uses original code, course layouts, generated pixel artwork, and synthesized browser audio created for this project. It is an independent tribute to the style of classic top-down arcade racers and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by the creators or publishers of any earlier game. Third-party names and trademarks remain the property of their respective owners.

5. Safe play and accessibility

Take regular breaks and stop playing if you experience discomfort, dizziness, eye strain, or motion sensitivity. The game includes rapid movement, high-contrast pixel graphics, screen flashes, and optional sound. It respects the browser's reduced-motion preference, and sound can be muted at any time, but these controls may not remove every visual effect.

6. Availability and changes

The Publisher may update, rebalance, suspend, or discontinue any part of the game. Local progress may be lost if browser storage is cleared, storage formats change, or the service is discontinued. Features, scores, and availability are not guaranteed.

7. Disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the game is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of uninterrupted operation, fitness for a particular purpose, or error-free performance. Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Publisher will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive loss arising from use of the free game, including lost progress, device incompatibility, or service interruption. Mandatory rights and remedies under applicable consumer law remain unaffected.

9. Applicable law

These Terms are subject to the laws that apply to the Publisher and the user. Any mandatory consumer protection, privacy, and dispute rights available in your country continue to apply. A specific governing-law and contact clause will be added when the Publisher's commercial operator details are finalized.

No advertising is active

The current version contains no display ads, video ads, sponsored placements, affiliate links, in-game purchases, or paid rewards. Playing does not require payment, and no ad network receives gameplay information from this build.

Standards for any future advertising

If advertising is introduced, the Publisher intends to:

• show interstitial ads only at natural breaks such as a results screen;
• make rewarded ads optional and explain the exact in-game reward before playback;
• keep ads away from steering, gas, turbo, start, and other game controls;
• never disguise an ad as game content or require ad clicks to continue;
• pause game input and audio safely while an ad is displayed;
• separate ad-assisted runs from competitive records when fairness requires it; and
• provide age-appropriate treatment and consent choices where required.

Before ads go live, this page and the Privacy Policy will identify the selected provider, its data practices, consent controls, and opt-out choices. An ads.txt record will be published only after an authorized advertising account provides a valid publisher identifier.
