Effective Date: November 1, 2026
This privacy policy describes how Questionable Realities LLC, doing business as Scrub Gaming ("Scrub Gaming," "we," "us," or "our"), collects, uses, and deletes data in connection with the BasketBallAR application for Meta Quest. BasketBallAR uses two kinds of data: optional anonymous analytics (only if you agree), and your Meta account information, which we use to provide leaderboards and achievements.
When you are signed in to your Meta account, BasketBallAR uses the Meta Platform SDK to access:
Your Meta user ID: a numeric identifier specific to BasketBallAR, assigned by Meta.
Your Meta profile: your Meta username / display name and profile picture.
Your leaderboard scores: your personal best score for each game mode (Open Gym, and Regulation on Easy, Medium, and Hard), and your rank on each leaderboard.
Your achievement progress: which achievements you have unlocked and your progress toward them (for example, career total points scored).
Your followers who play BasketBallAR: when you view your friends' leaderboards, the game reads the list of your Meta followers who also own BasketBallAR, along with their usernames, profile pictures, scores, and ranks, so it can show how you compare. This list is read from Meta each time it is shown; we do not store it or share it.
Achievements also use Meta's Deep Linking feature, which lets Meta open BasketBallAR from places in the Meta Quest interface, such as an achievement on your profile. When this happens, Meta passes launch information to the app (for example, which part of the app to open). BasketBallAR does not store this information or use it to identify you.
This data is stored by Meta on its platform. We do not copy it to our own servers. Your best scores are also saved locally on your headset so the game can show them offline.
On first launch, BasketBallAR asks whether you agree to share anonymous usage data. If you decline, no analytics data is collected. If you accept, we use Firebase Analytics, a service provided by Google, to collect:
Gameplay events: game mode and difficulty, scores, two-pointers and three-pointers made, total throws, baskets made, whether you play with hands or controllers, high scores, leaderboard submissions, achievement unlocks, trophy shelf placement, and your response to the in-game review prompt.
Technical events: spatial permission status, room scanning results, basket placement, and settings changes (such as sound, language, and equipment size).
Device information: headset model, operating system version, app version, system language, display refresh rate, country/region, and session duration.
Firebase assigns a random app-instance identifier to group these events. Analytics data is not linked to your Meta user ID, username, followers, or any other account information.
We do not collect your real name, email address, precise location, photos, contacts, financial information, advertising IDs, or camera, microphone, hand-tracking, or eye-tracking data. Room scan data used to place the hoop and the trophy shelf stays on your headset and is never sent to us.
Meta user ID and profile: to post your best scores to the BasketBallAR leaderboards, show your rank, username, and profile picture on those leaderboards (in the game and in the Meta Horizon app), restore your best scores on a new headset, and record your achievements.
Followers: to show you leaderboards of your friends' scores and where you rank among them.
Deep linking: to let Meta open BasketBallAR from achievements and other links in the Meta Quest interface.
Scores and achievement progress: to rank you on the leaderboards and unlock achievements when you reach their goals.
Anonymous analytics: to understand how players use the game, improve gameplay, and fix technical problems such as room scanning failures.
We do not use any data for advertising, sell it, or use it to build profiles of you.
Other players: leaderboards are public within BasketBallAR. Other players can see your Meta username, profile picture, best scores, and rank — on the global leaderboards, and on the friends' leaderboards of your followers who also play BasketBallAR.
Meta: leaderboards, achievements, and follower lists run on the Meta Horizon platform, which stores that data. The Meta Quest platform may also collect its own usage data. Meta's handling of your data is governed by the Meta Privacy Policy.
Google (Firebase Analytics): processes anonymous analytics on our behalf if you consent. See the Google Privacy Policy.
We do not share your data with anyone else, except where required by law.
Leaderboard entries and achievement progress are kept on Meta's platform until you ask us to delete them, or until the leaderboards or the app are retired.
Follower lists are not stored by BasketBallAR; they are read from Meta only while friends' leaderboards are shown.
Anonymous analytics: Firebase automatically deletes detailed event data after approximately 2 months.
Data saved on your headset (best scores, settings, and the trophy shelf's saved position) is removed when you uninstall BasketBallAR.
You can turn anonymous analytics on or off at any time with the Data Consent toggle in the in-game Settings menu.
Who counts as your follower is managed in your Meta account; you can change who follows you, or your Meta privacy settings, at any time in the Meta Horizon app.
You can ask us to delete your leaderboard entries and achievement progress at any time:
Email contact@questionablerealities.com with the subject line "BasketBallAR Data Deletion Request".
Include your Meta username so we can find your data.
We will delete your entries from all BasketBallAR leaderboards and reset all of your BasketBallAR achievement progress within 30 days, then reply to confirm.
We may reply to confirm the request came from the owner of the account before deleting anything. Anonymous analytics cannot be linked to you, so it cannot be deleted individually; it is deleted automatically after about 2 months.
To remove the best scores saved on your headset, uninstall BasketBallAR. Your Meta account itself is managed by Meta; to access or delete it, use Meta's account settings or see the Meta Privacy Policy.
We maintain administrative, physical, and technical safeguards designed to protect data from unauthorized access, loss, alteration, or disclosure. Data is sent securely to Meta and Firebase.
BasketBallAR is intended for users aged 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has used the game, email us and we will delete their leaderboard and achievement data.
We may update this policy when our data practices change, for example when we add new features. We will update the effective date at the top of this page whenever we do.
