PRIVACY POLICY
Offline play. Local saves. No in-game tracking.
Effective date: 2026-09-24Who is responsible
Matan Madar develops THE ONE WHO LIVES. For privacy questions or requests, contact matanita44@gmail.com. This policy covers the game, our support correspondence and the support website.
Information in the game
The game works offline. It does not require an account and does not send your gameplay, saved progress or settings to us. Progress, inventory, world state and preferences are stored locally on your device. The game has no advertising, tracking, analytics SDKs, multiplayer service or in-app purchases.
Device access
The game does not request access to your contacts, location, camera, microphone or photo library. It uses its own storage to read and save progress and settings.
Saves and your choices
Local saves remain on the device until replaced or removed. The game keeps backup saves, so starting a new world is not a complete data-deletion method. To remove the game’s local data, delete the app through your device settings; this also removes progress. Offloading an app may retain its data. Any device or computer backups are managed separately through Apple’s or your backup provider’s controls. We cannot read, recover or delete local saves remotely.
If you contact support
If you choose to email us, we receive your email address, message and any attachments you send. We use these to answer your request and investigate problems. Do not send passwords, payment details or other unnecessary sensitive information. Opening the contact button does not send an email automatically and does not attach your saves or logs.
Support retention and sharing
Support messages are kept only as long as needed to handle the request, related follow-up and applicable legal obligations, then deleted. You can request access, correction or deletion by emailing us; any legally required retention will be explained. Email providers, including Gmail, process correspondence to deliver and store it. We do not sell personal information or use support messages for advertising. We may disclose information when legally required or necessary to protect rights and security.
Support website and external links
Opening a web link uses your browser and requires internet access. Our support pages contain no advertising, analytics scripts or forms added by us. The hosting provider receives technical request data, such as IP address and browser information, to deliver and protect the website under its own policies. Email and hosting providers may process data in other countries. Their services and Apple’s App Store, device backups and diagnostics are governed by their respective privacy policies.
Children and privacy rights
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the game. If a child has sent personal information to support, a parent or guardian can contact us to request removal. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict use of personal information, object to processing, request portability, or complain to your privacy authority. We use voluntarily submitted support information to respond to you and maintain the game, subject to applicable law. Contact us to exercise these rights.
Policy updates
The effective date identifies this policy version. Material changes to data practices will be reflected here and in the game; where required, we will provide notice or obtain consent before new collection begins.
