Privacy Policy & Support

Collection of Information
Moonstruck Mackerel contains embedded Unity game engine technology, which may collect non-personal information about your device including unique device identifiers (such as IDFV for iOS devices and Android ID for Android devices), the IP address, the country where Moonstruck Mackerel was installed (based on the IP address), device manufacturer, device model and platform (such as iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, etc.), operating system and version running on your device, language, CPU model, number of CPUs, CPU frequency, CPU instruction set support flags, graphics card vendor, graphics card type, graphics card driver name and version (i.e. “nv4disp.dll 6.10.93.71”), graphics API in use (i.e. “OpenGL 2.1”, “Direct3D 9.0c”), amount of system RAM, amount of video RAM, current screen resolution, version of the Unity Editor used in development of Moonstruck Mackerel, sensor flags (such as device support for gyroscope, touch pressure, or accelerometer), application or bundle identification (“app ID”) of Moonstruck Mackerel, unique advertising identifiers provided for iOS and Android devices (such as IDFA or Android Ad ID), and a checksum of all the data (if it were to be sent) to validate correct transmission. In the event of an error while Moonstruck Mackerel is running, the embedded Unity technology will collect the error details (i.e. stack trace, log messages), will create a crash report which would also include the above device information, and then possibly prompt the player to submit the crash report to App Store Connect. The developer of Moonstruck Mackerel, Doug Keith-Nakamura, can then access such reports via App Store Connect in order to aid in debugging. Doug Keith-Nakamura will not collect, store, use, or share this information for any reason other than debugging the error. The debugging process would consist of using the stack trace and log messages to find where in the code the error had originated, and the device information would be used to find a possible pattern in the error occuring across all users who had experienced that same error. The pattern might be something like the error only occuring on a specific CPU or specific graphics card driver version, and therefore the collection of your device's information would help in tracking down such an issue.

Aside from the above, Moonstruck Mackerel's embedded Unity game engine technology was preconfigured by Doug Keith-Nakamura not to use additional Unity services such as Unity Analytics, deltaDNA services, or Unity Ads. Since these additional Unity services are disabled in Moonstruck Mackerel, no additional personal information is collected by the embedded Unity technology in Moonstruck Mackerel. Only the device and error information outlined above is ever collected.

You can also read Unity's own privacy policy for developers and end users of games that were developed using their game engine technology: Unity Privacy Policy. Note again that Moonstruck Mackerel does not use additional Unity services such as Unity Analytics, deltaDNA services, or Unity Ads.

Outside of the embedded Unity technology, the specific gameplay logic in Moonstruck Mackerel written by Doug Keith-Nakamura does not collect, store, use or share any information at all, personal or otherwise.

If you email the developer, Doug Keith-Nakamura, for support or other feedback, your email address will be retained for quality assurance purposes only, and may be deleted after a reasonable amount of time. The email addresses will be used only to reply to the concerns or suggestions raised and will never be used for any marketing purpose. The email will not be forwarded to any third-party unless you expressly consent or where required by law.

Doug Keith-Nakamura will not disclose your emailed information to any third party unless you expressly consent or where required by law. The email will otherwise not be visible to anyone except Doug Keith-Nakamura and Google (only because Google owns the Gmail domain being used). 

Security
The only information that Moonstruck Mackerel ever handles is your non-personal device information and error details in crash reports managed by Unity. Moonstruck Mackerel never handles personal information. All non-personal device and error information for crash reports will only be on your device, in App Store Connect, and/or en route in between. Doug Keith-Nakamura cannot control or guarantee the security of this Unity-managed non-personal information in cases of device loss, device theft, software fault, hardware fault, and unauthorized third parties. Regarding any personal information you might manually send via email, please be warned that email is generally not considered secure so any personal information should be kept to a minimum if contacting Doug Keith-Nakamura via email. In addition, Doug Keith-Nakamura is not responsible for any breach of email security since that would be completely outside his control. 

Children
As stated above, none of Moonstruck Mackerel's gameplay logic written by Doug Keith-Nakamura collects personal information about anyone, children or otherwise. The only information that is collected is non-personal device information and error details for crash reports, and all of that collection occurs inside the embedded Unity game engine.
