Privacy Policy

Last updated: 15 April 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Flippy ("the App", "we", "us") collects, uses, and protects information when you use the mobile application Flippy. The App is operated by Mattia Andreoli, an individual developer based in Switzerland.

1. Information We Collect

We are committed to collecting as little information as possible. Specifically:

• Data stored locally on your device: game progress, level completion, star ratings, unlocked cosmetic items, and your in-app settings (sound, music, vibration). This data never leaves your device unless you choose to use the multiplayer feature.
• Multiplayer data (only if you use the online mode): the player name you choose to enter and the game state of your match are temporarily transmitted to our multiplayer server in order to enable real-time gameplay between you and your opponent. This data is processed in memory only and is not stored on our servers after the match ends.
• Purchase data: when you make an in-app purchase, the transaction is handled entirely by Apple. We do not receive your payment information; we only receive a confirmation that the purchase was successful so we can unlock the related content on your device.

2. Information We Do NOT Collect

We do not collect, store, or transmit:

• Your real name, email address, phone number, or any account credentials (the App has no user accounts)
• Your location, device identifiers (IDFA), or advertising IDs
• Analytics, usage statistics, or behavioral tracking data
• Crash reports or diagnostic data sent to us
• Contacts, photos, microphone, camera, or any other device sensor data

The App does not contain advertising and does not share data with advertising networks.

3. Third-Party Services

The App relies on the following third-party services:

• Apple App Store: handles app distribution and in-app purchases. Apple's privacy practices apply to data they process. See Apple's Privacy Policy.
• Fly.io: hosts our multiplayer server in Frankfurt, Germany. They process WebSocket connections ephemerally and do not retain message content. See Fly.io's Privacy Policy.

4. Children's Privacy

The App is suitable for all ages and is rated 4+. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. The App contains no targeted advertising, no behavioral profiling, and no social features beyond optional player-versus-player matches identified only by a player-chosen display name.

5. Your Rights (GDPR and Similar Regulations)

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with similar data protection laws, you have the right to:

• Access information we hold about you (in practice: very little, as outlined above)
• Request deletion of your data — for locally stored data, you can do this at any time by deleting the App or using the in-app "Reset progress" function in Settings
• Object to processing
• Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority

For any privacy-related request, contact us at mattia.c.andreoli@gmail.com.

6. Data Retention

Local device data is retained until you delete the App or reset progress. Multiplayer session data is discarded immediately after each match ends. We do not maintain databases of user information.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent version. Material changes will be communicated through an in-app notice or App Store update notes.
