Privacy Policy
Last updated: 9 November 2026
This policy explains what [Studio name] ("we", "us") collects when you play Huestreak, why, and what you can do about it. We collect only what the game needs to work, keep scores fair and improve the game. There are no ads in the game, and we do not sell your data.
What we collect
| Data | Why |
|---|---|
| A random player ID and a secret key, created when you first open the game. Kept in your device's secure storage (Keychain or Keystore). There is no sign-up and we do not ask for your name or email. | So your scores, rank and Daily Challenge attempts belong to you across sessions. |
| Device and app details: platform (iOS or Android), operating system version, app version, language and time zone. | To fix bugs and support the right devices. The time zone is used only to show times sensibly. |
| Display name (optional, only if you set one). | Shown on the public leaderboards. Names are checked by an automatic filter. Do not use your real name if you do not want it shown. |
| Game records: the mode and difficulty you played, your score, rank, and a log of your moves with their timing. | The server replays your moves to confirm a score is genuine before it is ranked. This is how we keep the leaderboards free of cheating. |
| Gameplay events: when the app is opened, when a game starts and ends and how (for example time ran out or no moves were left), your score and moves, and whether you pressed Play Again or went back to the menu. | To understand how the game is played and improve it: balance, difficulty and what makes people stop. |
| Technical logs: your IP address and request details as part of normal server operation. | Security, abuse prevention and fixing faults. Kept only as long as needed for those purposes. |
What we do not collect
Your location, contacts, photos, microphone, camera, advertising identifier or browsing activity. We do not track you across other apps or websites, and the game shows no advertising.
Purchases
If you buy something in the game (for example Pro), the payment is handled by Apple or Google. We never see your card or payment details, only confirmation that a purchase was made so we can unlock it.
Sharing
We do not sell or rent your data. Our servers are run by a hosting provider that processes data for us under its own security commitments. Your score, rank and display name are public on the leaderboards. If you use the Share button, the score image is created on your device and sent only where you choose.
How long we keep it
- Gameplay events: up to 180 days, then deleted.
- Player ID, scores and game records: until you ask us to delete them, or until the account has been inactive for a long period.
- Technical logs: for a short period.
Your choices and rights
You can ask us to show you, correct or delete the data tied to your player ID. See Delete my data. Depending on where you live (for example the EU, UK or California) you have legal rights over your data, and we will honour them whether or not the law requires it. You can also remove the local data by deleting the app.
Children
Huestreak is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you think a child has given us personal data, contact us and we will delete it.
Security
Data is sent over encrypted connections, your secret key is kept in secure device storage, and scores are checked on the server. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your data.
Changes
If we change this policy we will update the date above, and tell you in the app if the change is significant.
