Yatzy Room — Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how the Yatzy Room application (the App) handles user data. We respect your privacy and strive to ensure transparency in how our App operates.
1. Data collection and usage
The App does not collect, store, or share personal data such as real names, email addresses, phone numbers, or precise location. You do not need to create an account to use the App.
For real-time room synchronization, the App temporarily processes a user-chosen nickname and the current game progress so that all players in the room can see the shared scoreboard. This is used only to provide synchronization. No analytics, advertising, or tracking tools are used.
2. Local data storage
The App may store selected settings, language preferences, and other technical parameters exclusively on the user device. This locally stored data is not transmitted to third parties and remains accessible only on the device.
3. Synchronization backend — temporary data
The App uses a third-party backend service to synchronize scores between devices. When you create or join a room, your nickname and the room game state are placed into a temporary object on the backend server. This object is automatically removed after 1 hour of inactivity. The developer does not receive personal information beyond what is required for synchronization, and the data is not used for profiling or marketing.
4. Permissions and device access
The App does not request access to the camera, microphone, location, contacts, or other device features that may contain personal data. Internet access is required only to enable room creation, joining, and synchronization.
5. Data security
We limit processing to the minimum necessary and use transport encryption for network communication. Because the App does not transmit or store personal data beyond the temporary synchronization object described above, risk of data leakage is reduced. All locally stored settings remain within the device operating system.
6. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be available at the same link in the app store listing.
