Privacy Policy
At a glance
- There is no sign-up or login. We don't ask for your name, email, phone number, contacts, photos, or precise location.
- Your game progress (levels, stars, hearts, gifts) and settings are stored on your device, and your cleared levels, stars and cat-room progress are also backed up to your iCloud (hearts and settings are not). We have no servers and use no analytics tools.
- Ads in the iOS app are served by Google AdMob. The advertising identifier (IDFA) is used only if you tap "Allow" on the iOS tracking prompt. The web version has no ads.
- Apple Game Center sign-in and leaderboards are handled by Apple.
1. Scope
This policy covers the iOS app Sunny Nap Cats (the "app"), its web version, and this website. The privacy policies of the outside services used in the app (Google AdMob, Apple Game Center) also apply.
2. Information that stays on your device
The following is stored only in the app's storage on your device and is never sent to us:
- Levels cleared, stars, and which tips you have already seen
- Your hearts and when the next one refills, your daily gift streak, how many hearts you got from ads today, and which chapter rewards you have received
- Ad frequency records (such as when the last interstitial ad was shown and how many levels you have finished since) — used to keep ads infrequent
- Settings (language, music and sound on/off and volume, vibration)
- Your notification setting and scheduled reminders (full hearts, today’s gift) — iOS shows these on the device itself; no server is involved and nothing is sent
- Per-level play records (time taken, taps, hints and undos) used to improve the game; they never leave the device
The result card you create with "Show off" is made on your device, saved to a temporary folder, and handed to the iOS share sheet. It is shared only where you choose, and we never learn what you shared or with whom.
3. Advertising (Google AdMob)
The iOS app shows ads through Google LLC's AdMob. Rewarded ads play only when you choose to watch one for a heart; interstitial ads appear occasionally after you finish a level, starting from level 8. To serve and measure ads and to prevent fraud, Google may collect:
- Your device's IP address (to estimate approximate location) and device information such as device type and OS version
- The advertising identifier (IDFA) — only if you allow tracking
- Ad interaction data such as impressions, clicks and views, plus ad performance and error logs
App Tracking Transparency (ATT): the first time ads are prepared, iOS asks whether to allow tracking. If you allow it, Google may use the IDFA to show personalized ads; if you don't, ads are shown without the IDFA and, depending on your consent, are non-personalized (contextual). Either way, the game is exactly the same. You can change this later in iOS Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking.
European Economic Area, UK and Switzerland: we ask for ad consent with Google's consent form (UMP). In these regions the app shows Settings › Privacy choices, where you can change or withdraw your consent at any time.
We set ads to be limited to content suitable for all ages. More information: Google Privacy Policy, How Google uses information from apps that use its services
4. Apple Game Center
When you open the app, it tries to sign you in to Game Center automatically. Signing in is optional, and every puzzle is playable without it. When you are signed in, your total stars and highest level cleared are posted to two Game Center leaderboards. Apple processes your Game Center nickname, submitted scores and ranks under the Apple Privacy Policy. The app reads your Game Center display name on the device to show it in Settings, but never sends it to us. To show friends' rankings, iOS asks separately for access to your Game Center friends list.
5. Analytics
The app contains no analytics SDK. We do not receive usage records or device identifiers.
6. Third parties and international transfers
We do not sell personal information, and we do not receive any ourselves. For advertising, the company below receives and processes information directly from the app.
| Recipient | Country | Information | Purpose | When and how | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Google LLC | United States | Section 3 | Serving and measuring ads, fraud prevention | Sent over HTTPS when ads are prepared and shown | Per Google's policy |
If you do not want your information transferred abroad, you can stop using or delete the app. You can prevent use of the advertising identifier by declining tracking. Game Center information is handled by Apple (Section 4). App Store installs, updates and download statistics are handled by Apple as the operator of the App Store.
7. Retention and deletion
- On-device information: deleting the app erases the progress, hearts and settings stored on the device. Your cleared levels, stars and cat-room progress stay in your iCloud (Apple Account) and are restored when you reinstall with the same Apple Account. Apple handles this backup and nothing is sent to us. You can turn off iCloud for this app in iOS Settings › [your name] › iCloud.
- Advertising data: kept by Google; you can manage it in Google My Ad Center.
- Game Center records: managed through your Apple Account and iOS Game Center settings.
8. This website and the web version
This website and the web version use no cookies or analytics, and the web version has no ads and no Game Center. Progress in the web version is stored only in that browser. Our host (Vercel) may briefly process access logs such as IP addresses for security and operation.
9. Children's privacy
The app is a puzzle game anyone can enjoy, but it is not primarily directed at children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your country), and we do not knowingly collect personal information that identifies a child. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child's information has been sent, please contact us and we will help with deletion as far as we can identify it.
10. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example, Korea's Personal Information Protection Act, the EU/UK GDPR, or California's CCPA/CPRA), you may request access to, correction or deletion of, restriction of processing of, or withdrawal of consent for your information. You can turn off personalized ads at any time by declining tracking or through "Privacy choices" in the app. Send requests to the contact below. You also have the right to complain to the supervisory authority in your country.
11. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will update the effective date on this page and announce significant changes, for example in app update notes.
