Privacy for Moundlings
Moundlings collects no data about you. Here is what happens on your device and what Apple handles for us.
No tracking
No analytics tools, no third-party SDKs, no profiles.
No account
You play without signing up, without an email address and without a password.
Everything stays with you
Your settings stay on your device only.
Who is responsible
The app is provided by flink think GmbH in Pratteln (Switzerland). Salzwerk is our brand for apps and games. You can reach us at hallo@salzwerk.app. You’ll find the full address in the Imprint.
What the app stores on your device
So that Moundlings remembers you, the app stores this information locally on your iPhone or iPad:
- your settings such as music, sounds, the strength of the red colony and the chosen language
- whether you have seen the introduction and which trial rounds you have played
- whether you have unlocked the Full Version
This data is not sent to us. We can neither see nor retrieve it. If you back up your device to iCloud or a computer, it is included. That runs through Apple and your own settings.
Nothing is sent to us or to third parties
The app connects neither to our servers nor to third-party servers. There are no ads, no tracking, no analytics services and no embedded third-party SDKs. The red colony, the stag beetle and the rain in Explorer mode are calculated in the app itself. It needs neither the internet nor your location for this.
Buying the Full Version
Apple handles the one-time in-app purchase “Full Version” through the App Store, as well as “Restore purchases”. We receive no payment data and no information about you. The app only asks Apple whether the Full Version is unlocked. The purchase is governed by the Apple’s Privacy Policy.
Ratings and feedback
If you tap “Rate” in the settings, the App Store opens. “Send feedback” opens your mail app with a new email to feedback@salzwerk.app. Only when you send it yourself do we receive your message and your address. We use them only to reply to you.
What Apple handles for us
Apple processes downloads, updates and purchases under its own responsibility. Apple shows us aggregated numbers, such as how often the app was downloaded. We only receive crash reports and usage figures if you agreed to share them with app developers in iOS Settings. We can’t see who you are.
Deleting data
If you delete the app, all settings are removed from your device too. The Full Version stays tied to your Apple ID and can be brought back with “Restore purchases”. There is nothing to delete on our side, because we have no data from you.
Your rights
Under the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and, where applicable, the GDPR, you have the right to access, correct and delete your data. Since the app doesn’t send any personal data to us, we usually have nothing stored about you. If you email us, we only use your message and address to reply to you. You can also lodge a complaint with a data protection authority, in Switzerland with the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).
