## Intended use

1in8bn is a free browser game for entertainment and reflection, intended for ages 15 and older. It can depict illness, poverty, loss and death. Characters and life events are fictional. Gentler and Classroom modes change aspects of play but do not guarantee the absence of difficult themes.

Statistical estimates and simulated financial, educational, health or migration outcomes are not personal advice or predictions. The game cannot determine what will happen to a real person.


## Public sharing and conduct

Publish only content you are comfortable making public. Do not publish personal information, abusive messages or unlawful content. Review the selected information before sharing a life, room, album or reflection.

Use reporting controls or contact contact@1in8bn.com for concerns about public content. The service may limit or remove unsuitable community content.


## Saves, availability and browser support

Keep exported backups of lives you want to retain. Local storage can be cleared or blocked, and importing replaces the lives on the destination device. Automatic synchronization and recovery of deleted local saves are not promised.

Game behavior and available export formats can change. A modern browser with JavaScript is required; individual media capabilities vary.


## Embedding and attribution

Public game pages support iframe embedding. Provide a direct link to 1in8bn.com so players can open it outside the embedded context. Storage and export behavior may differ inside an iframe.

Third-party data and map assets retain their applicable attribution and license terms. Consult the published third-party notices. For product, support or permission questions, contact contact@1in8bn.com.
