Privacy Policy

Duo Arcade for iPhone · Last updated 16 August 2026

The short version

1. Who we are

Duo Arcade is made by Fresaberry, a one-person app studio run by Wallace Ting. You can reach us at hello@fresaberry.com. This policy covers the Duo Arcade app for iPhone and this website.

2. What we collect

Nothing.

That is not a summary of a longer answer — it is the whole answer. Duo Arcade has no sign-up, no user profile, no analytics SDK, no crash-reporting SDK, no advertising SDK, no advertising identifier, and no server of its own. There is no mechanism in the app by which information about you could reach us, because the app never contacts us.

The app can make exactly one kind of network request: to Apple's App Store, when you buy or restore the premium unlock. That request goes to Apple and not to us, and it is described in full in section 5. Everything else — every game, every setting, the entire Hangman dictionary — happens on your phone with no connection at all.

Kind of dataDo we collect it?
Name, email address, contact detailsNo
Device or advertising identifiersNo
Location, precise or coarseNo
What you play, when, or how oftenNo
Crash reports and diagnosticsNo
Words typed in HangmanNo
Payment details, Apple Account, purchase historyNo — Apple handles the purchase and tells us only whether the unlock is owned

3. What stays on your phone

The app remembers a few things so it behaves sensibly the next time you open it: your theme choice, whether sound is on and how loud, which games you have favourited, how many free Hangman plays you have left, and whether you have bought premium.

All of that is written to your device's own storage and stays there. It is never transmitted anywhere. Deleting the app deletes it.

4. Words you type in Hangman

When one player sets a word for the other to guess, that word is held in the phone's memory for the length of the round and then discarded. It is not saved, not uploaded, and not seen by anybody except the person you handed the phone to.

5. Purchases

Duo Arcade offers one optional purchase: a single non-consumable that unlocks Hangman permanently, removes the in-app promotions for premium, and covers every game added later.

The purchase is handled entirely by Apple. When you tap to buy, the app hands the request to Apple's own in-app purchase system and Apple takes it from there — the payment sheet you see belongs to Apple, not to us. We never see and never receive:

What the app gets back from Apple is a yes-or-no answer to one question — has this unlock been bought on this Apple Account — and it writes that answer to your phone's own storage. Nothing about the transaction is transmitted to us, because there is nowhere for it to go.

Restoring a purchase works the same way. Restore Purchases asks Apple what this Apple Account has already bought and re-applies it. It needs no account of ours and creates no record with us.

Apple's own handling of the transaction — the payment, your account, and anything Apple keeps about it — is governed by Apple's privacy policy, not by this one. Under Apple's rules that processing is Apple's, not ours, which is why this app's App Store privacy label reads "Data Not Collected" even though money can change hands inside it.

6. Advertising

Duo Arcade shows promotions for its own premium unlock until you buy it. Those are the only ads in the app.

There is no advertising network involved. Nothing about you, your device or your play is used to select them — they rotate on their own. No third party is paid to place them and no third party receives anything from us. Buying premium removes them.

7. What Duo Arcade does not do

8. Children

Duo Arcade is rated 4+ and is suitable for children. Because the app collects no information at all, it collects none from children either — which means there is nothing for a parent to request, review or delete. The app is not submitted to the App Store's Kids Category.

The app does contain one in-app purchase. If you would rather a child could not make it, iOS Screen Time settings can turn in-app purchases off at the device level.

9. Your rights

Privacy laws including the GDPR and the CCPA give you rights to access, correct, export or delete the personal information a company holds about you. We hold none, so there is nothing for us to produce or erase. If you would like that confirmed in writing, email hello@fresaberry.com and we will say so.

10. This website

This site is static. It sets no cookies, runs no JavaScript, and has no analytics or tracking of any kind. It is hosted on Cloudflare Pages, which keeps standard server logs including IP addresses for security and abuse prevention, as any web host does. It loads two fonts from Google Fonts, which means Google's servers see the request for those font files.

11. Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with a new date at the top. If a future version of the app ever collects anything at all, that change will be described here plainly and before it ships, not after.
