Privacy policy
Sky Lanterns is a matching game. It is free to download. The only purchase is a one-time unlock of the full game. There is no subscription, no advertising, and no user account.
Data that stays on the device
Progress, scores, stars, settings (sound, music, language, reduced motion), how many rounds were played today, and whether the full game is unlocked are stored only on the device. Clear the app’s data or uninstall it to delete them. This save is not sent to the developer.
The one-time purchase
Payment is handled by Google Play or the App Store. The developer never sees a card number, bank account, or store account.
To tell whether this install owns the full game, and to restore that purchase after a reinstall, the app uses RevenueCat, Inc. RevenueCat receives only:
- a random app user id, not a name, email, or Google or Apple account;
- the store receipt or purchase token, so the one-time product can be verified;
- technical details that come with that check, such as the operating system, app version, and device language.
This is used to unlock the game and to manage the purchase, including whether it succeeded, was refunded, or should be restored. It is not sold and it is not used for ads. The check runs when the app looks up ownership, and it cannot be switched off inside the app.
Internet
The whole game can be played offline, and progress stays on the device. The internet is used to show the price, to buy, to restore a purchase, and to check whether an update is required.
What the app does not do
- It has no sign-in, and it does not ask for a name, email, or phone number.
- It does not collect location, contacts, photos, messages, audio, or files.
- It shows no ads and has no separate gameplay analytics.
- Players cannot message each other.
Children
The game is not directed at children under 13, and it does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Deletion
On-device data is removed by clearing the app’s data or uninstalling it. To ask for the anonymous purchase record held by RevenueCat to be deleted, email the address below. The developer will delete that customer in RevenueCat. After that, the old id can no longer restore the purchase automatically. A receipt that is still with Google Play or the App Store can still restore it.
Service providers
- Google Play and the Apple App Store process the payment and issue the receipt.
- RevenueCat verifies and remembers the one-time purchase. Its policy is at revenuecat.com/privacy.
Data sent off the device is encrypted in transit.
