Privacy Policy for Wingshift

Effective Date: September 22, 2026

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Wingshift processes information when you play the game on the Meta Horizon platform or contact us for support.

Wingshift is provided by MGWD ("we", "us", or "the developer"), the controller responsible for the processing described in this policy. You can contact us at marcingwozdz94@gmail.com.

Wingshift is a single-player virtual reality game. Its core gameplay can be played offline, and it does not require a separate Wingshift account. Versions supporting optional in-app purchases use Meta's platform services for those features. An internet connection is required to make purchases and to retrieve or refresh information from Meta.

We do not operate a backend that collects or stores player profiles, gameplay activity, or Meta account and purchase records. However, the game accesses and processes the limited Meta platform information described below. Processing within the game does not mean that this information is uploaded to a developer-operated server.

2. Personal Data and Meta Platform Features

2.1. User ID

Wingshift accesses the signed-in user's Meta Horizon User ID through the Meta Platform SDK. This is an identifier associated with the user's account for the application, not the user's real name.

The game uses this identifier to identify the current platform user when using in-app purchase services and to associate purchase and content-access checks with the correct account. This supports verifying ownership and restoring access to eligible purchased content across sessions.

The User ID is processed as needed by the game's platform integration. We do not use it for advertising, marketing, behavioural profiling, or tracking users across unrelated applications.

2.2. User Age Group

Wingshift accesses the user's age category through Meta's User Age Group / Get Age Category API. The result is an age category, such as child, teen, or adult, or an indication that age information is unavailable. It does not provide the user's exact date of birth.

The game uses this information to determine which age-related requirements and restrictions apply to its platform features, including access to purchase-related features where relevant, and to provide age-appropriate handling of those features. This information is not used for advertising, marketing, or behavioural profiling.

Wingshift does not independently ask players to provide their exact age, date of birth, or identity documents through the game.

2.3. In-App Purchases

Wingshift supports optional purchases of digital content or features through Meta's in-app purchase system in versions where these purchases are available.

To provide these features, the game processes information returned by Meta's purchase services, such as product identifiers (SKUs), purchase identifiers, purchase results, and ownership or entitlement information relating to Wingshift purchases. An entitlement indicates whether the current account has access to a purchased item or feature.

The game uses this information to initiate the checkout requested by the user, check whether a purchase succeeded, unlock purchased content, verify access, and restore eligible purchases. Minimal content-unlock or entitlement information may be saved locally to remember available content.

Payments are handled through Meta's checkout system. Wingshift does not receive or store payment-card numbers, bank-account details, or payment authentication credentials. We do not receive information about purchases made in unrelated applications through this integration.

2.4. Information We Do Not Request or Use

Wingshift does not request User Profile access for display names, usernames, profile photos, or avatar information. It does not request access to followers, contacts, or social relationships.

The game does not collect microphone or camera recordings, advertising identifiers, or data for advertising, marketing, behavioural analytics, or cross-app tracking. It does not include third-party advertising or analytics services.

3. Information Processed Locally on the Device

XR input data. Temporary headset and motion-controller position, orientation, tracking status, and controller input are used to operate gameplay, aim weapons, calibrate the experience, and provide haptic feedback. The game processes this information in runtime memory. We do not record it or upload it to our own servers.

Local game data. Campaign progress, scores, upgrades, selected mission, accessibility preferences, comfort settings, haptics settings, and audio-volume settings are stored locally so the game can remember progress and preferences.

Local purchase-related data. The game may retain minimal information indicating which purchased content or features are unlocked. This is separate from Meta's transaction and payment records.

We do not operate a cloud-save service or receive local save files through a developer-operated backend. Where Meta's system-level Cloud Backup is enabled for the app and the user, Meta may back up and restore eligible local application data. Those backups are managed through Meta's services and controls, not through a developer-operated server.

4. Purposes and Legal Bases

We process the information described in this policy to operate the game and its VR controls; save and restore progress and preferences; provide, verify, and restore eligible in-app purchases; apply relevant age-related requirements; and respond to support or privacy requests.

Where applicable data protection law requires a legal basis, we rely on processing necessary to provide the game and purchased functionality you request; our legitimate interests in maintaining a safe, age-appropriate service and responding to support enquiries, where not overridden by your rights and interests; and compliance with legal obligations where those obligations apply. Where consent is legally required, we obtain it before the relevant processing takes place.

We do not use this information for advertising, marketing, behavioural profiling, or cross-app tracking.

5. Information You Provide When Contacting Us

If you email us, we receive your email address and the information you choose to include, such as a description of a problem, a purchase reference, or a privacy request. We use this information to respond and resolve your enquiry, not for marketing.

Support correspondence is handled through our email service provider, Google (Gmail). It is separate from the game's local processing and does not constitute a gameplay or player-account backend. Please do not send passwords, full payment-card details, or unnecessary sensitive information.

6. Data Retention

XR input data: processed temporarily in memory and discarded when no longer required or when the application closes.

User ID and User Age Group: used during the relevant game session and platform requests. The game does not retain these values in its persistent save files or send them to a developer-operated backend.

Purchase responses: processed as needed to complete purchase and entitlement checks. Minimal local unlock or entitlement information may remain while needed to provide access to content, until replaced by an updated status or removed with the application's stored data. We do not maintain a developer-operated transaction database.

Local game data: remains on the device until the user clears the application's stored data or uninstalls it. Meta-managed backups, where enabled, are separate and may remain until deleted using Meta's controls.

Support correspondence: retained only as long as necessary to handle the enquiry and any related follow-up, or to meet applicable legal requirements. Information no longer needed for these purposes is deleted.

Meta determines retention of the account, transaction, service, and backup records it maintains under its own policies. The retention statements above do not describe or override Meta's separate retention practices.

7. Disclosure and Sharing

We do not sell or rent personal information or disclose it to advertisers, data brokers, or analytics providers.

The game communicates with Meta's platform services as necessary for the account, age-category, and purchase features described in this policy. The relevant account context and purchase requests are processed by Meta to deliver those services. This is not a transfer to a developer-operated backend.

Correspondence you send us is processed through our email provider. We may also disclose information where required by applicable law. We do not otherwise disclose player information to third parties.

Meta separately processes information when operating the Meta Horizon platform, accounts, store, payments, device services, and backups. That processing is governed by Meta's own policies, including the Supplemental Meta Platforms Technologies Privacy Policy.

8. Security Measures

We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards appropriate to the limited information processed, including limiting the information used by the game, keeping local data in application storage, and restricting access to support correspondence.

Purchase and account operations use Meta's platform services. We do not collect Meta account passwords or payment authentication credentials. No method of storage or transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

9. Data Deletion and Your Rights

To request deletion or correction of personal information under our control, email marcingwozdz94@gmail.com. You can use the subject line "Wingshift Privacy Request". Parents or guardians may contact us on behalf of a child.

We will respond without undue delay and within any time limits required by applicable law. We may request only the information reasonably needed to verify and handle the request. Where we hold no relevant information, we will explain this and help identify the appropriate deletion method. We delete Meta platform user data under our control without undue delay when required by a user request, Meta's requirements, or applicable law, or when it is no longer needed.

Local device data: clear Wingshift's application storage in the device settings or uninstall the game to remove its local save data and any locally stored unlock information. We cannot remotely erase files held only on your device.

Meta Cloud Backup: deleting local data or uninstalling the game does not necessarily delete Meta-managed backups. Where backups exist, use Meta's Cloud Backups controls to delete the Wingshift backups, including backups associated with other devices. Reinstalling the game may restore an existing backup.

Meta account and purchase records: clearing local game data does not delete your Meta account, Meta's purchase history, or the purchases associated with that account. Eligible content may become available again when the game retrieves the account's entitlements. Requests relating to records controlled independently by Meta should be directed to Meta through its privacy or support controls.

Depending on applicable law, you may also have rights to access your personal information, restrict or object to its processing, obtain a portable copy where applicable, and complain to a competent data protection authority. Contact us to exercise rights relating to processing for which we are responsible.

10. Children and Age-Appropriate Use

Access to Wingshift and its purchase features is subject to the game's age availability and applicable Meta account restrictions and parental controls. We use Meta's age-category information only for the purposes described in Section 2.2.

We do not use children's information for advertising, marketing, or behavioural profiling. A parent or guardian with a question about their child's information or a deletion request can contact us using the address below.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes to the game, platform requirements, or our data practices. The updated version will include a new Effective Date. Where required, we will provide additional notice before material changes take effect.
