Privacy Policy
This policy covers the Murder Street app for iPhone and iPad, published by Chris Gurtlinger.
The short version
Murder Street does not collect, track, or share any personal information. There are no accounts, no ads, and no analytics. Everything the app remembers stays on your device.
What stays on your device
To work properly, the app saves a few things on your device only: the role settings you choose, the names of players you have entered so you can add them again quickly, which add-on packs you own, the name you last used when hosting or joining a game, and a random ID that lets your device be recognized if it reconnects to a game. None of this is sent to the developer or to anyone else.
Playing on more than one device
Multi-device play uses Apple's Multipeer Connectivity. Player names and the state of the game are sent directly between the devices in your game over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. This traffic does not pass through any server run by the developer, and the game is not saved after it ends. The first time you host or join a game, iOS asks for permission to use the local network. It is used only to find and connect to the other players' devices.
Purchases
Add-on packs are bought through the App Store. Apple processes the payment and tells the app which packs you own. The developer never receives your payment details, your Apple ID, or any other personal information.
Third parties
The app contains no third-party code, advertising, or analytics services, and it does not track you across other apps or websites.
Children
The app does not collect personal information from anyone, including children. It is a party game with mock-murder and horror themes, so please check the age rating on the App Store before letting younger children play.
Your control
Because nothing is collected, there is nothing for us to access, correct, or delete. Deleting the app removes everything it saved on your device. You can turn off Local Network access for the app in iOS Settings at any time; single-device pass-and-play keeps working without it.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the updated version will appear in the app and on this page with a new effective date.
