Fly Fly Away! Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information the game Fly Fly Away! ("the game") collects, why, and what you can do about it. The game is made by Satu Studio ("we", "us"). We keep collection to what we need to run the game, keep the rankings fair, fix crashes and improve the game.
In short: you don't need an account, and we never ask for your name, email or phone number. We don't show ads and we don't track you across other apps or websites. We don't sell your information.
What stays on your phone
Your progress (best score, goo, characters, boosters, settings and seen tips) is saved only on your device. Deleting the game deletes it.
What we collect, and why
| Information | Why we use it |
|---|---|
| Rankings: a random player ID (created by the game, not linked to your name), the nickname you pick, the country you pick, your scores, run times and the character shown on your row | To show the weekly and all-time rankings, and to keep them fair (impossible scores are refused). Your nickname, country, character and scores are visible to other players on the rankings. |
| Gameplay statistics: events such as a run starting and ending, places reached, dangers met, goo earned and spent, settings changed and tips shown, with the game version, device model, operating system, language and an approximate location (country or region, worked out from your IP address) | To understand how the game is played, find parts that are too hard or too easy, and improve it. |
| Crash reports: what the game was doing when it crashed, device model and operating system | To find and fix crashes. |
| Game settings download: the game asks our server for updated game settings (for example difficulty values or a maintenance message), sending basic app and device information such as app version, language and country | To adjust the game and show important notices without a new app update. |
The gameplay statistics and crash reports use the same random player ID as the rankings, so we can see how a player's runs fit together. This ID is not linked to your name, email, Apple ID or any other account.
Services we use
- Google Firebase (Google Analytics for Firebase, Firebase Remote Config and Firebase Crashlytics) for gameplay statistics, game settings and crash reports. Google processes this data on our behalf. Learn more: How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and Firebase privacy.
- Cloudflare hosts our rankings server and this page.
The game does not collect your device's advertising identifier (IDFA) and does not ask for permission to track you. If we add advertising in a future version, the game will ask for your consent where required before any ad-related data is used, and we will update this policy first.
How long we keep it
- Crash reports: about 90 days.
- Detailed gameplay statistics: up to 14 months. Totals that don't identify anyone (for example "how many runs reached Mars this week") may be kept longer.
- Rankings: weekly boards are cleared every week; your all-time best and nickname stay on the all-time board. Refused scores are kept 30 days and name reports 90 days to keep the rankings fair.
Your choices and rights
- You can play without ever opening the rankings; your nickname and country are only set if you choose them.
- You can ask us to delete the information linked to your player ID, or ask what we hold, by emailing us (see below). Please include your nickname so we can find your row. Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR or CCPA) you may have further rights, such as correction or objection; just ask.
- Deleting the game removes everything stored on your phone.
Children
The game is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes
If we change this policy we will update the date at the top, and for important changes we will tell you in the game.
