The short version
The game does not collect, store or share any personal information. There are no ads, no analytics and no tracking, and no accounts of our own.
What stays on your device
Your profiles, names, coins, the things you've unlocked and your settings are saved on your iPhone or iPad only. We never see them. Deleting the app deletes them.
Playing together nearby
Local play uses Apple's peer-to-peer networking to connect devices near each other over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. The game sends your profile name, your card back and your moves to the other devices in that game, and nowhere else. Nothing passes through our servers. iOS asks your permission for the local network the first time you play together.
Playing online
Online play runs through Apple's Game Center. The game sends your moves, your profile name and your card back to the other players in your game through Apple. Your Game Center account and friends are handled by Apple under Apple's privacy policy. We don't receive or keep any of it.
The beta sign-up
If you join the beta on this website, we save your email and your first name if you give it. We pass them to Apple's TestFlight, which emails you the invite, or for Android to Google Play's test list, which lets you install the test from Google Play. We may also email you news about the beta. We use them for nothing else and never share or sell them. Email tyzapeko@gmail.com and we'll delete them.
Crash reports
If you've chosen to share analytics with app developers in your device's settings, Apple may send us anonymous crash reports. They don't identify you, and you can turn this off in Settings > Privacy & Security > Analytics & Improvements.
The release list
If you sign up on nertz.io to hear when something new comes out, we save your email, your first name if you give it, and whether you use iPhone or Android. We use them only to email you about Nertz: Arcade releases, and never share or sell them. Email tyzapeko@gmail.com and we'll delete them.
Children
The game collects no data from anyone, including children. The beta sign-up and the release list are for people 13 and over.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update this page and the date at the top.
