The iPhone and iPad app

The Midnight Cipher app for iPhone and iPad does not collect, store on our servers, or share any personal data. It has no accounts, no advertising, no third-party analytics and no tracking, and it does not need an internet connection to play. Your case progress and settings (such as sound and graphics options) are saved only on your own device, and are removed if you delete the app. We never receive them.

The rest of this page describes the Midnight Cipher website, which is separate from the app.

What we store (website)

• Accounts: your name, email address and a hashed password. If you sign in with Google we receive only your name and verified email address, never your Google password. Your name is shown next to your comments.
• Ratings and reviews: the name you give, your star rating and any text. Guests are recognised by a cookie so they can update their rating later.
• Feedback: your message and, if you choose to add them, your name and email. It is only visible to the developer.
• Game progress: saved in your own browser on your device. We never receive it.

Cookies

We use a session cookie to keep you signed in and protect forms, and one cookie for guest ratings. There is no advertising. If you press Accept on the banner, we also use Google Analytics (through Google Tag Manager) (cookies named _ga) to count visitors and measure how long people play. It never sees your name or email. You can change your mind at any time with “Cookie settings” in the footer.

Your choices

You can delete your own comments at any time. To have an account, rating or feedback removed, send a message through the feedback form or email [email protected].
