PRIVACY POLICY
The short version
Little Haunt is a small, family-friendly game. We don't ask you to create an account, we don't collect your name or email, and your game progress is saved on your own device. If you choose to use the optional leaderboards (an iOS feature), your best scores are handled by Apple Game Center — not by us. The apps can show optional rewarded ads through Google AdMob, and Google may process limited device information to deliver those ads. That's essentially it.
Who we are
Little Haunt is developed and published by Kexlan Pty. Ltd. ("Kexlan", "we", "us"). This policy covers the Little Haunt app on iOS and Android, and this website (littlehaunt.com). Questions? Contact us at [email protected].
What we collect (and what we don't)
- No Kexlan accounts. The game has no sign-up, login, or profile of our own. We never ask for your name, email address, or contact details. Leaderboards (on iOS) use your device's existing Apple Game Center account, and only if you choose to sign in (see Leaderboards below).
- Game progress stays on your device. Coins, unlocked characters, high scores, and settings are stored locally in the app's storage. They are not uploaded to us. If you use leaderboards on iOS, your best scores are also submitted to Apple as described below.
- We run no servers of our own that receive or store your personal data.
Leaderboards (optional)
The iOS app offers optional leaderboards through Apple Game Center (the Android version currently has no leaderboards). If you are signed in to Game Center and choose to use leaderboards, your best scores are submitted to Apple under your Game Center profile, and the game shows public leaderboard entries (player nicknames, avatars, and scores) provided by that service.
This data is processed by Apple under its own privacy policy — we never receive or store it. Leaderboards are entirely optional: if you don't sign in, no scores leave your device, and the game works normally. Signed-in status and profile visibility are managed in your device's Game Center settings, including Apple's family and parental controls.
Advertising
The app can show optional rewarded ads (for example, to revive after a run or earn bonus coins). You choose whether to watch them. Ads are served by Google AdMob. To deliver and measure ads, Google may process device information such as advertising identifiers, IP address, and coarse device data, as described in Google's Privacy Policy and AdMob's data practices.
Ads in Little Haunt are requested with Google's child-directed treatment settings, so they are never personalized and the app does not use the device advertising identifier for tracking. The app does not show Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt because it does not track you.
In-app purchases
The app currently offers no in-app purchases. If a future update adds any, payments would be handled entirely by Apple's App Store or Google Play — we never see your payment details.
This website
littlehaunt.com is a simple static website. It sets no cookies and runs no analytics or trackers. It is served by Cloudflare, which may process IP addresses in its server logs as part of delivering the site securely.
Children's privacy
Little Haunt is designed to be family-friendly. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. The game has no chat, no messaging, and no account system of our own. The only social feature is the optional leaderboards, which show platform-provided nicknames and are managed by Apple's and Google's own family and parental control settings. Ads are requested with Google's child-directed treatment settings. If you believe a child has somehow provided us personal information, contact us at [email protected] and we will delete it.
Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in Europe or the CCPA in California), you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data. Because we don't hold your personal data, the practical steps are usually local: deleting the app removes your saved progress, and ad-related choices can be managed in your device settings (Android: Settings → Google → Ads; iOS: Settings → Privacy). For anything else, email us and we'll help.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we'll post the new version on this page and update the effective date above. Significant changes will be called out in the app's release notes.
