Privacy Policy

1. Information Stored on Your Device

The native app stores the following information locally to provide its features:

• Your card collection, selected deck, level progress, difficulty choices, and scores.
• Your current battle, battle history, and game preferences, including haptic feedback and reduced motion.
• The read status of messages in the app’s notification inbox. The bundled welcome message is local content and does not require push notification permission.
• A recently opened web address, so the app can reopen web content if its startup service is unavailable.

The native game does not currently upload your saved game progress or local inbox read status to our server. Web content has separate storage and network behavior, described in Section 3.

2. Startup Connection and Network Information

When the app opens, it contacts our startup service at scqelfhta.top to obtain the address of the privacy policy page, so you can review the policy within the app.

This request includes a fixed application identifier. Although the service calls this parameter a username, it is not a username you enter, a personal account, or an identifier unique to you. The request does not include your locally saved game progress.

Network services receive your IP address and the information needed to handle a connection. Our startup service and hosting providers may also process request times, requested resources, client or browser information, and error or security logs to deliver content, maintain availability, and protect the service. This connection takes place during startup, before you press Continue on the privacy notice.

3. Web Content and External Links

The app can display online pages in an embedded browser and open links in your device’s default browser. When a page loads, its operator and any services used by that page may receive your IP address, browser or device information, and information you choose to submit or generate through your interactions.

Web pages may use cookies, local storage, cached resources, or similar browser features to remember preferences, maintain sessions, and provide their services. Information handling depends on the page and the features you use. Review any privacy or cookie notices provided by the page, particularly before signing in or submitting personal information.

This policy covers our handling of information. Where another organization operates a linked service, its privacy notice also applies to its handling of your information. Opening a page in an external browser does not give Time Cards access to that browser’s general browsing history.

4. Push Notifications and Firebase

Time Cards uses Apple Push Notification service (APNs) and Google Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) to support remote notifications. The app requests your permission to display notifications. You can decline permission and continue using the native game and local notification inbox.

To register an installation and deliver notifications, these services process push tokens and an app installation identifier. Firebase also processes technical information associated with messaging and service operation, which may include app and operating system versions, device information, language, time zone, and diagnostic information. These identifiers allow messages to reach a particular app installation; they are not your player name or email address.

Firebase and its supporting components may retain installation information and tokens for service operation and renewal. Notification content and the information associated with a notification you open are made available to the app to handle that interaction. The native app does not currently upload its local notification inbox history to a separate business server.

You can change notification permission in iOS Settings → Notifications → Time Cards. Turning off notification display does not itself delete previously created Firebase installation records or tokens.

For additional information, see Firebase Privacy and Security, Firebase’s Apple-platform data disclosures, and Apple’s Privacy Policy.

5. Purposes and Service Providers

Information described in this policy is used to save local progress and preferences, load online content, deliver permitted notifications, respond to support requests, and operate and secure the associated services.

Relevant providers include Apple for platform and push notification services, Google Firebase for messaging and installation services, the providers hosting our startup service and web content, and our email provider when you contact support. A provider may process information in a country other than the one where you live, subject to its applicable terms and privacy practices.

The native app does not include advertising SDKs or Google Analytics. This statement does not describe every website that may be opened through the app; consult the notices for those services for information about their analytics, advertising, or other processing.

6. Retention, Deletion, and Backups

Native game saves, preferences, inbox read status, and cached web addresses remain on your device until replaced, reset, or removed with the app. Embedded browser storage can also remain between sessions.

To remove the app and its local data, choose Delete App in iOS Settings. Offload App retains documents and data. Deleting the app does not necessarily delete information already held by service providers, external websites, your external browser, or your backups.

Apple or computer backups may include local app data, depending on your settings. Restoring a backup can restore that data. Manage backups and external browser data through the relevant system or browser settings.

Retention of server logs, messaging records, and provider-held information depends on the service, the purpose of processing, and applicable retention requirements. Firebase’s retention practices are described in its Privacy and Security documentation. Contact us for questions or requests concerning information handled through Time Cards; requests involving another service may also need to be directed to that provider.

7. Support and Your Choices

If you contact us, we receive your email address and the information you include. Support correspondence is processed through our email provider to answer your questions and resolve your request. Please do not send passwords, payment credentials, or other unnecessary sensitive information.

Depending on the law that applies to you, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or a copy of personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. Contact us using the address below. We may need information reasonably necessary to identify the relevant records and verify a request; we do not ask for your password.

You can also control notification permissions, delete local app data, and manage browser storage using the device and browser controls described above. We cannot directly retrieve native game saves that have remained only on your device.

8. Children’s Privacy

The native game does not ask players to provide a name, date of birth, or email address. Online connections and notification services can nevertheless process technical information as described in this policy.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child has provided personal information through Time Cards or a support request, contact us so we can investigate and address the request. Please review the privacy notices and age requirements of any external services before allowing a child to use them.

9. Security

The configured startup service and privacy policy page use HTTPS. The security and storage practices of web pages and service providers also affect information handled through those features. No method of transmission or storage can be guaranteed completely secure.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy when app features or information-handling practices change. The effective date above identifies the current version. Where required, we will provide additional notice or request consent.
