Plow Punch: privacy policy
Short version: the game collects nothing about you and sends nothing anywhere.
What the game stores
- Your progress and settings, in a file on your device (
circuit.json, with a backup copy). It holds your deck, wins and losses, rewards earned, puzzle stamps and settings such as volume and vibration. It never leaves your device unless your phone’s own backup service copies the app’s data, which you control in your phone’s settings. - The graphics level your device needs, kept in the game’s settings storage on your device. If a battle runs slowly, the game turns some effects down and starts the next battle at that level. Like your progress, it leaves your device only if your phone’s own backup copies the app’s data.
- An error log (
errors.log) on your device that records the game’s own errors, with the game version, device model and system version. It stays on your device: the game never sends it, and there is no way to share it from inside the game. - No playtest log in store versions. The testing log that test builds can keep is not in the game you download from a store.
- A result picture, only when you tap Share on a result. It shows that result screen (the score, both captains’ names and portraits, the battle’s numbers). On Android it is saved to your phone’s Pictures, in a “Plow Punch” album, and handed to the app you pick. On iPhone and iPad it goes to the share sheet, and it is saved to Photos only if you pick Save Image. Nothing is sent unless you pick an app. You can delete the picture like any other photo.
- An 8-second clip (Android only), only when you choose it after a battle: the game replays that battle’s best moment and records it as a short video (no sound, no other screens), saved to your phone’s Movies in a “Plow Punch” folder and handed to the app you pick. Nothing is sent unless you pick an app.
What the game does not do
- No account, sign-in or player ID.
- No analytics, advertising, tracking or third-party SDKs that collect data.
- No location, contacts, camera or microphone, and it never reads your photos or videos (it only adds a result picture or clip when you share one).
- No purchases.
- No chat or user-generated content. Sharing a result or a crew code uses your phone’s own share sheet: you choose the app and the recipient there, and the game never sees who it went to.
Permissions
- Vibration (Android): short taps when you play a card or a structure falls. You can turn it off in Settings.
- Add to Photos (iPhone and iPad): used only if you pick Save Image while sharing a result picture. It lets the game add that picture to Photos; it cannot see your photos.
- No internet: the Android game does not request internet access. Battles and clip recording work offline. If you choose to share, Android opens your phone’s share sheet so you can pick another app.
Children
The game has no data collection, so it collects nothing from children either.
Deleting your data
Uninstall the game, or clear its storage in your phone’s settings. Both remove everything the game keeps for itself. They don’t remove pictures and clips it saved for sharing. On Android, those stay in your phone’s Pictures and Movies, in “Plow Punch” folders. On iPhone and iPad, a picture you saved with Save Image stays in Photos. Delete them in your gallery or Photos app like any other photo or video.

Changes
If a future version adds anything that collects data (online play, cloud saves), this policy will be updated before that version ships, and the store data-safety answers will change with it.
