Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-07-06

Donpa Squad does not collect any personal data.

The app runs on your device and, if you turn on score syncing, your own iCloud:

• No data is sent to us. Donpa Squad has no server, no account, no sign-in, no analytics, no advertising, and no third-party SDKs. We receive nothing.
• What’s stored locally. Your settings (appearance, handedness, language, last board), per-board scores (best times and games cleared), career stats, and your in-progress games (one per board) are saved on your device (via the system’s standard local storage) so they persist between launches.
• Optional iCloud score sync. If you enable “Sync” in the scoreboard, your scores and career totals are stored in your own iCloud account (Apple’s iCloud Key-Value Storage) so they follow you across your devices. This goes only to your private iCloud — never to us or any third party — and is governed by Apple’s privacy policy. It’s off by default, works only while you’re signed into iCloud, and turning it off (or resetting your scores) removes that device’s synced data. In-progress games are never synced. Everything is removed if you delete the app (local) or turn sync off (iCloud). With sync on, your rivals list (below) syncs the same way, in the same private iCloud, under the same switch.
• Sharing scores with others is peer-to-peer, not through us. If you choose to share, the app builds — on your device — a score card containing the display name you type, your best times and games-cleared per board, and (only if you opt in) your career totals, and trades it with the other device directly over Nearby exchange (local Wi-Fi/Bluetooth); there is no server and no account — nothing is sent to us. The share is signed by a key kept in your device Keychain (and your own iCloud Keychain, so your devices act as one identity); the key exists only to prove a share really came from the same person, not to identify you to anyone. As with sharing anything, once you give someone your card they hold that copy — sharing again later doesn’t reach back.
• A rival’s scores you receive stay yours-side. When you accept someone’s card as a rival, the name and scores they chose to share are stored on your device (and your private iCloud if sync is on), kept separate from your own scores, and shown only to you for comparison — never sent anywhere. Removing a rival deletes their data from your device (and, with sync on, from your other devices).
• No tracking. The app does not track you across apps or websites and does not use any device identifiers for advertising.
• Children. Because the app collects no data at all, it collects none from children either.
