Privacy Policy for WaterDetective
Last updated: 2026
WaterDetective is a self-contained field school for reading water. It runs entirely on the
device it is installed on. This document sets out, in plain terms, what that means for the
information you generate while using it.
1. The short version
WaterDetective has no servers. There is no sign-up screen, no login, no profile to create on
our side, and no way for us to see what you do inside the app. Everything below is an
expansion of that single fact.
2. What never leaves your device
The app records your lesson progress, mini-game scores, Field Notes, unlocked regions,
collected sketches and badges, and the display name you choose for yourself. All of it is
written to the app's own private container on your device and read back from there. None of
it is transmitted anywhere. The app makes no network requests during normal use.
3. Information we are not able to gather
Because there is no analytics kit, no advertising identifier, no crash reporter and no
embedded third-party framework of any kind, we do not receive your location, contacts,
photo library, microphone input, device identifiers, usage statistics, or behavioural
signals. We do not build a profile of you, and we do not sell or share information with
anyone, because none reaches us in the first place.
4. Permissions
WaterDetective requests no system permissions. It does not use the camera, the photo
library, location services, notifications, Bluetooth, or the microphone. If your device
ever prompts you for a permission while an app claims to be WaterDetective, it is not
this app.
5. Keeping and removing your record
Your record is yours to keep for as long as you want it. Two ways to clear it: use the
reset control inside Settings, which erases the saved file and returns the app to its
first-run state, or delete WaterDetective from your device, which removes the container
and everything in it. Neither action requires a request to us — there is no copy held
elsewhere to retrieve, export, or erase on your behalf.
6. Younger users
WaterDetective is a general-audience educational title and is not directed at children
under 13. It contains no chat, no user-to-user contact, no external links, and no purchase
flow. Since no information is gathered at all, none is knowingly gathered from a child.
7. Revisions to this policy
If the app ever gains a feature that changes any statement above, this document will be
rewritten before that feature ships, and the date at the top will move forward. Material
changes will also be summarised inside the app's own privacy screen, which mirrors this
text.
