Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to the Hidden Clues iOS app and this public website. Contact email: stanchev.andon@gmail.com.
Data the app collects
The current version of Hidden Clues does not collect personal data through the app.
- No account registration.
- No camera, microphone, contacts, photos, or location access.
- No advertising ID collection.
- No third-party analytics or crash reporting SDKs at this time.
Local save data
Hidden Clues may store game progress, solved-case state, preferences, audio settings, accessibility-related preferences, and purchase entitlement state on your device. This data is used to run the game and restore your experience locally.
Purchases
Optional case pack purchases are handled by Apple through the App Store. We do not receive your credit card number or Apple ID password. The app may receive purchase status from Apple so it can unlock purchased content and restore purchases.
Support emails
If you email us for support, we receive your email address, message content, and any information you choose to include, such as device model, iOS version, purchase issue details, or screenshots. We use this information only to respond to your request, troubleshoot issues, and improve support.
Data sharing
We do not sell personal data. Because the current app does not collect personal data, there is no app-collected personal data to share with advertisers, analytics providers, or data brokers. Support emails may be processed by email providers as needed to receive and respond to your request.
Website hosting
This static website may be hosted by Vercel or a similar hosting provider. Hosting providers can process standard server log data, such as IP address, browser type, requested page, and request time, for security, reliability, and abuse prevention. This website does not use advertising tracking.
Third-party services and SDKs
Hidden Clues currently uses Apple App Store services for purchases and restore-purchase functionality. The app does not include third-party analytics, advertising, or crash reporting SDKs at this time. If analytics, crash reporting, accounts, or other third-party SDKs are added later, this policy will be updated.
Retention and deletion
Local save data remains on your device until you reset progress in the app, delete the app, or erase the device data. Because Hidden Clues does not have user accounts, there is no account record to delete.
To request deletion of support emails or other information you sent directly to us, email stanchev.andon@gmail.com.
Children's privacy
Hidden Clues does not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child sent personal information through support email, contact us and we will review and delete it where appropriate.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when the app, website, or support process changes. The effective date above will be updated when material changes are made.
