Privacy Policy

Effective date: November 8, 2026

The short version

  • Your player profiles, photos, and game history stay on your device (and in your own iCloud account, if you use iCloud).
  • We use two analytics services, TelemetryDeck and Microsoft Clarity, to understand how the app is used and to fix problems. They don't receive your name, email, or photos.
  • We don't show ads, we don't sell your data, and we don't track you across other companies' apps or websites.

1. Information stored on your device

The app stores the following on your device so the game works:

  • Player profiles you create: names, colors, and optional profile photos (a selfie or a photo you choose).
  • Game progress: XP, level, coins, unlocked categories, wins and games played per player, daily trivia streaks, favorite songs, saved artists, and favorite genres.
  • Party photos: group photos taken at the end of a multiplayer game. The app keeps your most recent 12 on your device so you can view them in the gallery.
  • Settings, such as whether automatic group photos and daily reminders are on.

This information is not sent to us. You can delete players (Edit players → swipe to delete), delete party photos (in the gallery), or remove everything by deleting the app.

2. iCloud (Apple)

If you're signed in to iCloud, the app uses iCloud Key-Value Storage to keep your progress in sync across your devices. This includes game progress and player names, colors, XP, and win counts. Profile photos and party photos are not synced. This data is stored in your own iCloud account under Apple's privacy policy, and we can't access it.

3. Game Center (Apple)

If you use Game Center, your scores and achievements are submitted to Apple's Game Center leaderboards, and the app may show your Game Center name and photo. This is handled by Apple under its privacy policy.

4. Apple Music

With your permission, the app uses Apple Music (MusicKit) to search for artists and play short song previews during games. We don't collect or store your listening history or your music library.

5. Microphone and speech recognition

With your permission, the app listens for your spoken answers while you're answering a question. Speech is converted to text by Apple's speech recognition, which may process audio on your device or on Apple's servers, as described in Apple's privacy policy. The app only uses the result to check your answer. We don't record, store, or receive your audio or transcripts.

6. Camera and photos

With your permission:

  • Camera: used to take a selfie for a player profile and an optional group photo at the end of a multiplayer game. Automatic group photos can be turned off in Settings.
  • Photo library: used only when you choose a photo for a player profile, or when you save a party photo to your library.

Photos stay on your device. They're only shared if you choose to share them, for example from the share sheet.

7. Notifications

If you turn on the daily reminder, the app schedules a local notification on your device. No information is sent to us.

8. Analytics

We use two services to understand how people use the app and to improve it. Neither is used for advertising, and neither links data to your identity.

TelemetryDeck

The app sends anonymous usage events to TelemetryDeck, such as "game finished", the game mode, or a daily streak count. Each install is identified by a random, one-way hashed identifier that can't be traced back to you or your device. No names, photos, or contact details are sent.

Microsoft Clarity

The app uses Microsoft Clarityfor session analytics. Clarity captures how the app is used, such as taps, scrolling, and which screens are visited, and may create recordings of app sessions so we can see where people get stuck and fix bugs. Clarity assigns a random identifier to sessions; it isn't linked to your identity.

To protect your privacy:

  • Player photos, party photos, and the photo gallery are masked (hidden) in recordings.
  • Recording is paused entirely while the camera is open, while you're choosing or taking a profile photo, and while the share sheet is showing a photo.

Microsoft processes this data as described in the Microsoft Privacy Statement, and keeps it according to Clarity's data retention policy.

9. Purchases

In-app purchases, such as coins and upgrades, are processed by Apple. We never receive your payment details. Apple tells the app what you've bought so it can unlock it, and Restore Purchases is available in Settings.

10. What we don't do

  • We don't sell or rent your information.
  • We don't use your information for advertising, and the app shows no ads.
  • We don't track you across apps or websites owned by other companies.
  • We don't ask you to create an account.

11. Children

Pop Quiz Party is a general-audience game. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children. Player profiles and photos stay on the device, and analytics don't include names or photos. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us and we'll help remove it.

12. Your choices and rights

  • Delete local data: delete players or photos in the app, or delete the app.
  • iCloud data: manage or delete it in your device's iCloud settings.
  • Permissions: change camera, microphone, speech recognition, Apple Music, photos, and notification access at any time in the Settings app.
  • Analytics data: because analytics aren't linked to your identity, we usually can't find data belonging to a specific person. If you have a request under laws such as the GDPR or CCPA, contact us and we'll help where we can.

13. Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we'll update the effective date above and post the new version at popquizparty.com/privacy.

14. Website

If you sign up for early access or updates on our website, we collect your email address only. We use it to send updates about Pop Quiz Party and its launch, invite you to beta testing, and share product news. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email, or ask us to delete your email address by contacting us.

Two services help us run the website:

  • Resend manages email communications. Your email address is stored according to Resend's privacy policy.
  • Vercel hosts the website and may collect standard server logs (IP addresses, request metadata) as part of normal hosting operations.

We never sell or rent your email address.
