StarPaw — Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how StarPaw ("the App," "we," "us") handles information when you download and play the game. We built StarPaw to work without requiring an account, and it does not collect personal information beyond what's described below.

Information We Collect

StarPaw does not require you to create an account or provide any personal information to play.

Data Sharing

Because we do not collect personal information or usage data, we have nothing to share with third parties. StarPaw does not integrate with any advertising networks, analytics providers, or data brokers.

Children's Privacy

StarPaw does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13. Because the App requires no account, no sign-in, and no personal information to play, it is designed to be safe for players of any age from a privacy standpoint. If we ever introduce features that involve data collection (see "Changes to This Policy" below), we will update this policy and ensure compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and Apple's App Store guidelines for kids' content before releasing that update.

Data Security

Since gameplay data stays on your device and is never transmitted, there is no server-side data of yours for us to secure or that could be exposed in a breach.

Your Choices

You can clear all locally stored data (best score and unlocked outfits) at any time by deleting the App from your device. Reinstalling will start you fresh.

Changes to This Policy

If we add features in the future that change how data is handled — for example, cloud save/sync, leaderboards, or analytics — we will update this page and revise the "Last updated" date above before that update becomes available. Continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

Note for the developer: this is a starting draft, not legal advice — we're not a law firm. Before submitting to the App Store:

Host this page at a public URL (e.g. GitHub Pages, a simple static site) — App Store Connect requires a live privacy policy URL, not just the file itself.
If you later add analytics, ads, in-app purchases, cloud saves, or any account/login system, this policy needs to be updated to reflect exactly what's collected and why — each of those changes what Apple's "App Privacy" questionnaire in App Store Connect requires you to disclose.
If your audience skews toward children, double check whether you need to enroll in Apple's Kids Category requirements, which have stricter rules than what's drafted here.
Consider a quick pass by an actual lawyer if this app will generate real revenue — cheap insurance against an App Store rejection or bigger issue later.
