Privacy Policy

Fateline · Last updated: 9 September 2026

Your game and your information

FateLine has no account or advertising. Saved lives stay on your device. Usage events, purchase records and technical details help operate and improve the app. If you choose to send feedback, the developer receives your message and any email address you include.

Saved lives and purchases

Your characters, runs and Ledger are stored on your iPhone. The app offers a backup export in Settings. Deleting the app removes its local saves unless you have kept a backup.

Apple handles payment. FateLine does not receive your payment card details or Apple Account password. RevenueCat processes purchase records under a persistent customer identifier to validate access, support restoration and report sales. Purchase events also appear in the app's usage analytics.

Usage analytics

PostHog processes events in the European Union. These include screen views, onboarding choices, gameplay actions and milestones, purchase and restore outcomes, feedback interactions, app version, device model, iOS version and language. Events use a random installation ID. They are pseudonymous, rather than guaranteed anonymous: feedback containing an email address or other identifying details can link activity under that ID to you.

PostHog may derive approximate location from the IP address used to send events. FateLine does not request GPS access. The app has no advertising identifier, ad SDK, contact access, camera or microphone collection. Data is not sold or shared for advertising.

Usage analytics are enabled by default and do not currently have an opt-out switch. Gameplay itself works offline; queued events are retried when a connection becomes available.

Feedback and developer replies

Sending feedback is optional. The form sends the message, category, optional email, app and device details, and installation ID to the developer through PostHog. Please include only information needed to explain your issue. An email address is not required for an in-app reply.

From FateLine 3.0, replies are encrypted for the installation that sent the message. Its reply key is stored in the device Keychain and included in the private feedback event. The shared delivery channel carries encrypted replies, never the reply key or readable reply text. The developer and authorized service administrators can access submitted feedback.

Resetting your ID and requesting deletion

Settings › Reset my anonymous ID creates a new installation ID and discards events waiting to be sent. It does not delete information already received by PostHog or RevenueCat, and it does not change your purchases or saved lives. Replies addressed to the old ID will no longer appear.

To request access, correction or deletion of information, use the support page or Settings › Message the developer. Include the email you used for feedback or your current installation ID so the developer can locate the relevant records. If you reset the ID first, locating earlier records may require other information you supplied. Purchase records may need to be retained to support access, restoration or applicable record-keeping requirements.

Children

FateLine is not intended for children under 13. The feedback form should not be used to send sensitive personal information.

Changes

Material changes to these practices will be reflected here and in the app's update notes. This policy describes the 3.0 release candidate prepared on 9 September 2026.
