Privacy Policy

The short version

Version 1.1 and earlier do not collect app usage data. The upcoming version 1.2 adds two separate, optional choices in Profile: usage analytics and new-game notifications. Both are off by default. No account is required, there are no ads, and we do not use your data for cross-app advertising tracking or sell it.

What stays on your device

Your settings (sound and haptic strength), gentle play stats (like bubbles popped and minutes relaxed), and your purchase state are stored on your device. When you enable analytics, the usage information described below is also sent to Google. Garden drawings and decorations stay on your device.

Optional usage analytics (version 1.2)

If you enable Share usage analytics, Google Analytics for Firebase receives app launches, game visits, foreground play duration, purchase events, and app/device information. Google assigns an app-instance identifier and derives approximate location from IP addresses. These records can be associated with that installation. We do not send your name, email, advertising identifier, garden designs, or audio recordings. We use these reports to understand usage and improve the games.

Turn sharing off in Profile to stop future analytics collection and reset local Firebase analytics data. This does not automatically erase information already uploaded. Data is processed by Google under its retention settings; contact us about privacy or deletion requests. We do not have an account directory that identifies individual players by name.

Google Firebase privacy information

Optional new-game notifications (version 1.2)

If you enable New-game notifications and grant iOS permission, Apple and Firebase Cloud Messaging process device/installation identifiers, push delivery tokens, and app/device information to deliver occasional ASMR Arcade announcements. Firebase also processes technical SDK and delivery diagnostic metadata to maintain service reliability. Notification permission is separate from analytics permission. You can disable announcements in Profile or disable notifications in iPhone Settings. Turning them off in Profile unregisters this device and requests deletion of its Firebase messaging token; server removal retries if offline. We do not use notification responses for advertising tracking.

Purchases

The one-time “Full Arcade” unlock is processed entirely by Apple (StoreKit). We do not receive payment-card details. Purchase records and restores are handled by your Apple ID. If you enable analytics in version 1.2, Firebase may record product identifiers, prices, and purchase events associated with the app-instance identifier.

This website and the Web Arcade

The marketing site (asmrarcade.com) and the browser games at asmrarcade.com/play do not use cookies, advertising trackers, or analytics scripts. The web games run entirely client-side; nothing you do in a game is sent to us.

Our hosting may log standard web-server access logs (e.g. request timestamps and IP addresses) for security and reliability purposes, in the same way nearly every website does. We do not sell data. If a future feature on this site requires an account or stores personal data (for example, a community gallery), this policy will be updated to describe exactly what's collected and why before that feature ships.

Children

Optional analytics and notifications are disabled by default. Parents and guardians can leave these settings off. We do not ask for a child’s name, age, email, or contact details. Contact us if you believe a child has provided personal information so we can investigate and address the request.

Changes & contact

If a future feature ever changes this policy (for example, optional downloadable sound packs would fetch files from a server without collecting anything), we will update this page before shipping it.
