This Privacy Policy explains how Snake: Retro Classic handles information when you use our mobile game. This policy applies to all users of the Game.
Your privacy is important to us. This Game is designed to be a simple, offline Snake game that collects minimal information and stores all data locally on your device.
Player Name (Optional): When you achieve a high score, you may choose to enter your name (up to 15 characters) to save with your score. This is completely optional - you can also save scores anonymously.
The Game automatically stores the following information locally on your device:
Game Scores: Your game scores and the dates they were achieved
Game Statistics: Number of games played on different difficulty levels
Game Settings: Your preferences for sound effects, haptic feedback (vibration), and game speed
High Score Records: Your personal best scores for tracking progress
We do not collect personal information such as your real name, email address, or contact information (unless you voluntarily provide a player name)
We do not access your device's camera, microphone, contacts, photos, or location
We do not collect device identifiers or advertising IDs
We do not track your behavior or usage patterns
We do not collect any biometric data
We do not collect any personal data
The limited information collected is used solely to:
Enhance Gaming Experience: Save your progress, high scores, and game statistics

Local Leaderboards: Display your personal best scores and player names (if provided)
All data processing occurs entirely on your device. We do not transmit, upload, or share any of your information with external servers or third parties.
We do not share, sell, rent, or disclose any of your information to third parties. All data remains stored locally on your device and is never transmitted outside of your device.
The Game does not connect to the internet and does not communicate with any external servers, analytics services, or advertising networks.
Local Storage Only: All game data is stored exclusively on your device using iOS's standard UserDefaults system
No Cloud Backup: Game data is not automatically backed up to iCloud or any other cloud service
Device Security: Data security depends on your device's built-in iOS security features
Data Isolation: Game data cannot be accessed by other apps on your device
While this Game is not specifically designed for children under 13, we recognize that children may play our game. We are committed to protecting children's privacy:

If you are in the European Union, you have additional rights. However, since we do not collect or store personal data on our servers, most GDPR requests can be fulfilled by managing your local game data directly on your device.
California residents have specific privacy rights. Since we do not collect, sell, or share personal information, and all data remains on your device, most CCPA protections are inherently provided by our privacy-by-design approach.
The Game uses your device's haptic feedback capabilities to enhance the gaming experience with vibration effects. This feature:
Can be turned on or off in the game settings
Does not collect any data about your device or usage
Only provides tactile feedback during gameplay

No advertising networks (e.g., AdMob, Facebook Ads)
No crash reporting services (e.g., Crashlytics)

Since all data is stored locally on your device:
Data is retained until you delete it manually or delete the app

We do not have access to delete your data remotely
Since no data leaves your device, there are no international data transfers to worry about.
