Privacy Policy

Effective 5 November 2026

Who we are

This policy covers the app “Pinforge: Roguelite Pinball” (the “app”) for iPhone, iPad and Mac, and this website. Both are published by YozatApps. Questions: yozatapps@gmail.com.

1. No account, your game stays on your device

The app works without an account or a login. Your runs, unlocked parts, statistics, settings and the run you left to continue later are stored only on your device. Deleting the app deletes them.

2. Anonymous usage analytics

To learn which parts of the game work and which do not, the app sends anonymous usage events to our own backend on Google Firebase (project “yozatapps”). They contain:

• a random install identifier, created the first time the app opens
• game events, such as a run started, a round cleared or failed, a part picked, a boss beaten
• if you buy Full Forge: that the purchase started, succeeded or failed, the product, the price and currency charged and the App Store country (never your Apple ID, name or payment details)
• the app version, device type and operating system version, language and App Store country

These events are tied only to the random install identifier; there is no account to link them to. We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, location, contacts or advertising identifier (IDFA), and we do not track you across other companies’ apps or websites.

3. Feedback you send

If you send feedback from Settings, we receive the text you choose to write, with the app version, the language and the screen it was sent from. We receive no email address unless you type one into your message. We use feedback only to answer you and to improve the game.

4. Purchases

The app offers one optional in-app purchase, Full Forge. Payment is handled entirely by Apple through your Apple ID; we never see your name, Apple ID or payment details. Apple tells the app only whether you own Full Forge, so it can unlock the game on your devices.

5. No ads, no tracking, no selling of data

The app has no ads. We do not sell personal data, and we do not share it with third parties for advertising or marketing. The app does not use Apple’s App Tracking Transparency because it does not track you.

6. Where the data is processed

Analytics events and feedback are stored and processed for us by Google LLC on Firebase (Google Cloud), in the United States. We keep them for as long as they help us improve the game, or until you ask us to delete them.

7. Your rights

You can ask for access to, correction of, or deletion of data about you at yozatapps@gmail.com. Because the analytics are tied to a random install identifier and not to your name, tell us roughly when and on which device you played, or quote the feedback you sent, so we can find it. If you are in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you can also complain to your data protection authority.

8. Children

Pinforge is a general-audience game and is not directed at children. It collects no personal information about anyone, children included.

9. This website

This website sets no cookies and uses no analytics or third-party scripts. Firebase Hosting, which serves the pages, may keep standard technical server logs for security and reliability.

10. Changes

If this policy changes, we publish the new version on this page with a new effective date.
