Overview

Nightband ("Nightband," "the App," or "the Game") is developed by Adelyons Software LLC ("we," "us," or "our"). Nightband is a local-first, no-account arcade game with a serialized story. This policy explains exactly what the App does and does not handle.

Information Stored On Your Device

The following is created and stored locally on your device only, in the App's private storage. It is not uploaded to us:

• Game save: Your lifetime catches, Frequency Atlas, records, streak, daily-night results, and story progress.
• Logbook: Which transmissions you have heard, for replay.
• App settings & preferences: Audio mix, haptics, captions, colorblind dial mode, and other in-app preferences.

Because this data lives only on your device, it is removed when you clear the App's data or uninstall the App.

No Account, No Login, No Game Server

• Nightband does not require you to create an account, sign in, or provide an email address, phone number, or name. There is no contacts grab.
• We do not operate a game server that receives, stores, or backs up your save. There is no backend for gameplay, and the entire game — every season, every transmission — ships inside the app.
• Your save is not synced between devices by us. If your device's operating system backs up app data (for example through iCloud or Android backup that you have enabled), that backup is controlled by you and your platform provider under their policies — not by us.
• The Game is fully playable offline. A network connection is only needed to buy or restore the optional unlock, to post a Daily Night score, and to send the analytics and crash data described below.

No AI, No Model, No Recording

Every voice in Nightband is a pre-recorded human performance that ships in the app. There is no language model, no text-to-speech, no AI model, and no model download anywhere in the App. Nightband does not use your microphone, does not listen to anything, and does not receive real radio — the "band" is entirely simulated on your device.

Analytics & Crash Reporting

To keep the game stable and to understand which parts of it work, the App sends anonymous diagnostic and usage data to the following providers. None of it identifies you: it is tied to a random, app-generated installation identifier, never to a name, email, or account, because no account exists.

• Firebase Crashlytics (Google) — crash reporting. If the App crashes, Crashlytics receives a crash trace plus device model, OS version, and app version so we can fix it.
• Google Analytics 4 / Firebase Analytics (Google) — anonymous app-usage events (for example: a run started, a run was banked, a paywall was viewed), with app version, device model, OS version, and a coarse region derived from your IP address. See Google's privacy policy.
• PostHog — product analytics: the same anonymous gameplay events, used for funnels and retention, and session replay of in-app screens — a reconstruction of the App's own UI and your taps within it, so we can see where players get confused. Session replay captures only what happens inside Nightband; it never captures other apps, your screen outside the game, your keyboard, your camera, or your microphone. The App has no text-entry fields, so there is nothing you type for it to record. See PostHog's privacy policy.

We use this data only to fix bugs, balance the game, and decide what to build next. It is never sold, never used for advertising, and never joined to any advertising identifier — the App contains no ad SDK and no ad network. If you would rather send nothing at all, you can play with the device offline; the entire game works without a network.

Optional Purchase (All-Access)

Nightband's arcade game and Season 1 are free, with exactly one optional one-time purchase — All-Access, $9.99. Purchases are handled by trusted providers:

• Apple App Store / Google Play: When you make a purchase, the transaction is processed entirely by Apple or Google under their own privacy policies. We never receive or store your payment-card details.
• RevenueCat: We use RevenueCat to validate and restore your purchase. RevenueCat receives a purchase token, an anonymous app-generated user identifier, and basic device and purchase metadata needed to deliver and restore your unlock. It does not receive your gameplay save. See RevenueCat's privacy policy.

If you never make a purchase, no purchase-related data is sent. Nightband sells only a one-time purchase — there is no subscription, no auto-renewal, and no free trial. Purchase terms are described in our Terms of Service and EULA, and are also governed by Apple's Media Services Terms and Google Play's Terms of Service.

Leaderboards & Sharing

• Platform leaderboards: If you play the Daily Night, your score is submitted to Apple Game Center or Google Play Games Services, which display it under whatever nickname you have configured with Apple or Google. Those services are operated by Apple and Google under their own privacy policies; we do not run a leaderboard server and receive no personal data from them.
• Share cards & clips: Night-log cards and clips are composed on your device and are only shared where you choose to send them, using your device's share sheet. Nothing is uploaded to us.

What We Do NOT Collect

• We do not require an account, email address, phone number, or name, and we do not request access to your contacts.
• We do not collect precise location data.
• We do not use your microphone or camera.
• We do not use advertising identifiers or cross-app tracking, and we do not show ads.
• We do not upload your game save or receive a copy of your progress.
• We do not sell or rent your personal information to anyone, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

Data Retention & Deletion

• Your save: Stored only on your device. Clearing the App's data or deleting the App permanently removes it. Because there is no account and no game server, there is no server-side copy of your save to delete and no account to close — which is also why there is no "delete account" page.
• Analytics & crash data: Held by Google (Firebase/GA4) and PostHog under their retention schedules and deleted on their normal cycles. Because it is anonymous and tied only to a random install identifier, uninstalling the App ends collection permanently. If you would like us to delete the analytics data associated with your installation, email us and we will do so — see below.
• Purchase records: Held by Apple, Google, and RevenueCat under their respective policies. Because Nightband sells only a one-time purchase, there is no subscription to manage or cancel.
• Leaderboard scores: Managed by Apple Game Center or Google Play Games Services under their policies, through your Apple or Google account.

Security

Your save stays within the App's private storage on your device, protected by your device's operating system. All communication with the App Store, Google Play, RevenueCat, Firebase, and PostHog uses encrypted (TLS) connections. No system can guarantee absolute security, but keeping your gameplay on-device means there is no central database of your saves to breach.

Children's Privacy

Nightband is rated 12+ / Teen for infrequent or mild horror and fear themes, is intended for a general teen-and-older audience, and is not directed to children. It does not ask anyone to provide personal information, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or the equivalent age in your region). If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us using the details below and we will delete it.

Your Rights

Privacy laws such as the GDPR (EU/EEA/UK) and CCPA/CPRA (California) give you rights to access, correct, delete, and port your personal data, and to opt out of its sale or sharing. We do not sell or share your personal information, and because Nightband has no account, we hold no name, email, or profile about you. The anonymous analytics and crash data described above is not linked to your identity. To ask us to delete the analytics data associated with your installation, or to exercise any right, email dev@adelyons.com and we will help. For purchase data held by Apple, Google, or RevenueCat, and for leaderboard data held by Apple or Google, you can also contact those providers directly.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as the App evolves. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Effective date" above and, where appropriate, through an in-app notice. Continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
