Privacy Policy
1. Operator and scope
Table Purrty is operated by Yining Sun as an individual. In this policy, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to the operator. This policy explains how we handle personal information when you use the game, its account services or customer support. Contact us at support@tablepurrty.com for privacy questions. Independent services you choose to use, including Apple and your email provider, also have their own privacy policies.
2. Sign-in and account information
When you choose Sign in with Apple, we receive the app-specific account identifier and authorization information needed to verify your identity and maintain your session. The app does not request your Apple name or email address through that flow. When you choose email-code sign-in, we process the email address you enter to send a one-time code, verify control of the address and create or restore your account. We do not ask for your email-account password. Email sign-in is available only when the mail service is enabled. Apple and email sign-in do not automatically merge accounts merely because an email address matches.
3. Profile, preferences and local storage
We process your selected nickname, avatar, default personality and reaction frequency to provide your game profile and synchronize account settings. Your device also stores language and sound preferences, profile caches and game state. Login credentials are stored in the device Keychain. Existing account caches may support available offline modes; online synchronization, the server wallet and online tables require a network connection.
4. Gameplay and virtual balances
For online play we process room membership, actions, connection state and the public and private game information needed to run the table. The server maintains virtual balances, work progress and settlement records. These records are used to run and restore games, synchronize progress, correct errors, verify rewards and prevent duplicate transactions or abuse. Nearby play exchanges the information needed for the table with nearby participants. If you register with an invitation code, we process the link between your account and the inviter’s account and the number of games you complete afterwards, including single-player and nearby games that the app reports to the server only for this count, to issue invitation rewards to both of you. Each account has an invitation code; inviters see only how many players registered and completed games, not who they are.
5. What other players can see
Other participants can see your nickname, selected avatar and information made public by the rules, such as public reactions and results. Your default personality and reaction-frequency settings are not public profile fields. Private cards are restricted until the rules or your permitted action make them public. Please avoid putting sensitive information in your nickname. We cannot control copies that other participants independently make of information they can legitimately see.
6. Purchases and advertising rewards
Where in-app purchases are offered, Apple handles payment. We process the transaction and product identifiers, account association and purchase, refund or revocation status needed to verify a transaction and deliver or adjust its benefits. Apple does not provide us with your full payment-card details. Where advertising rewards are offered, we process reward-claim and provider-event identifiers to confirm eligibility and avoid duplicate awards.
7. Advertising and privacy choices
When advertising is enabled, Google AdMob and its consent-management service may process IP addresses, approximate location inferred from IP, device and app information, ad interactions and diagnostic information to deliver ads, measure performance and prevent fraud. The app requests only non-personalized ads. It does not ask for tracking permission, does not access the advertising identifier (IDFA) and does not track you across other companies’ apps and websites. Non-personalized ads do not mean no data is processed. Use the in-app Privacy Options entry where available to review choices. Optional advertising choices are separate from account registration and acceptance of service terms.
8. Support and security records
If you email us, we receive your email address and the message and attachments you choose to send. We use them to respond, investigate problems and handle privacy requests. The app provides a contact email address that you can copy. Use your preferred email service to write and send a message. Account data, logs and private cards are not attached automatically. Account services also process request times, IP addresses and verification or rate-limit information needed to authenticate users and protect the service. Do not send passwords, login codes, access tokens or full payment details to support.
9. Providers and processing locations
Apple provides sign-in and purchase services. Amazon Web Services hosts the account and game services in Oregon, United States, and stores operational backups. Google Workspace sends sign-in verification emails through SMTP when email sign-in is enabled and handles messages sent to our support inbox. Google AdMob and its consent service process advertising information when advertising is enabled. Cloudflare provides domain and DNS services and hosts this website, where it processes visitors’ connection information such as IP addresses; these roles do not give it access to game-account records. Providers process information needed for their service under their applicable terms and privacy protections. Information may also be disclosed where required by applicable law or necessary to investigate abuse or protect users and the service. Provider processing may occur in the United States or other locations described in the provider’s applicable terms; we do not promise that all data stays in one region. If you use the game outside the United States, your information is transferred to and processed in the United States, where data-protection laws may differ from those where you live. Yining Sun is responsible for the protection of personal information and can be reached at support@tablepurrty.com.
10. Retention and security
We use protected connections and access controls for account services. No storage or transmission method can guarantee absolute security. Email sign-in codes expire after ten minutes and cannot be reused after successful verification; the code itself is not stored in plain text in the game database. Expiry prevents sign-in but does not mean every associated record is erased at that instant. Expired code records and outdated sending counters are cleaned up during later sign-in requests.
We keep information for the following periods.
Account information: your account identifier, Sign in with Apple or email binding, nickname, avatar, default settings, game records, wallets and their transaction history are kept while your account exists. We do not delete accounts for inactivity.
Sign-in sessions: a session ends after 30 days without use and is then removed.
Shared table records: the cards, actions, nicknames and avatars stored for an internet room are deleted 90 days after the room closes.
Clawsseum results: tournament brackets and placements are kept as part of the participants’ game records. When a participant deletes their account, their nickname and avatar are removed from those results.
Purchases and rewards: purchase and reward records are kept with your account. After account deletion we keep only transaction and reward event references that contain no account information, so that purchases and rewards are not credited twice.
Invitation records: your invitation code, invitation links, game reports and invitation rewards are kept with your account. When an account is deleted, its code is retired and never reissued, its own invitation rewards and game reports are removed, and remaining invitation links no longer identify it; rewards the other player already received are kept.
Server logs: operational logs are kept within a fixed size limit, with the oldest entries overwritten first, and are cleared whenever the service is updated.
Backups: server backups are deleted automatically within 30 days after they are created.
Support email: messages are deleted 12 months after the request is resolved.
When you delete your account, the server disables it immediately and then removes its profile, wallets, records and game progress; steps that fail are retried automatically. Shared rooms still within their retention period replace the deleted account with a separate identifier for each room and remove its nickname and avatar. A separate deletion record containing only random identifiers and digests is kept so that restoring a backup cannot revive the deleted account. Copies in backups are removed as those backups expire, within 30 days.
Information that Apple, Google and Cloudflare process for their own services follows their own retention policies. Signing out or uninstalling does not delete server or support records.
11. Your choices and requests
You can change the profile and preferences available in the app. You may email support@tablepurrty.com to request access, correction, a copy or deletion of personal information, or to question an earlier response. Rights and applicable exceptions depend on the law that applies to you. We may request proportionate identity verification before disclosing or changing account information. Please include only what is needed to explain your request.
The app includes a two-confirmation deletion flow under Settings → Account & purchases → Delete account. When the server accepts the request, it disables the account and invalidates its ordinary sign-in sessions. Right after you submit, the app shows the deletion status, where you can check progress. The profile, wallets and game progress are cleared; accounts that used Sign in with Apple must also complete Apple authorization revocation. Older accounts may need to verify with Apple again, and failures keep their status for retry. Submitting a request does not require you to spend a virtual balance, make a purchase or repay a negative virtual balance. Sending an email does not automatically delete the account. The previous section describes retention periods and backups.
12. Age eligibility
Table Purrty is intended for players aged 13 or older who also meet any higher minimum age that applies where they live. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you are under the age of majority where you live, use the app with the permission of a parent or guardian; a parent or guardian may contact us about your information as described in section 11. If you believe a child under 13, or a person below the minimum age that applies to them, has provided personal information, contact support@tablepurrty.com so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
13. Policy changes and contact
The published policy will show its version and effective date. Material changes will be explained through an appropriate notice, and any new processing that requires consent will wait for that consent. For questions about the policy or your information, contact Yining Sun at support@tablepurrty.com.
14. Additional information for users in South Korea
This section applies to the processing of personal information of users in South Korea under the Personal Information Protection Act and supplements the rest of this policy.
Items and purposes: we process the sign-in identifier from Apple or your email address, your nickname, avatar and game settings, game, invitation, purchase and reward records, connection information such as IP addresses and request times, and messages you send to support, for the purposes described in sections 2 to 8: providing accounts and games, purchases and rewards, advertising, support and security. Retention periods are described in section 10.
Destruction: when a retention period ends or an account is deleted, the records are deleted from the server database, and copies in backups are removed as those backups expire, within 30 days. We do not keep paper records.
Third parties and processors: we do not sell personal information or provide it to third parties for their own purposes, except where required by law. Amazon Web Services hosts the game servers and backups, Google Workspace sends sign-in emails and stores support email, and Cloudflare hosts this website. Apple and Google AdMob process information in their own services as described in sections 6, 7 and 9.
Transfer abroad: when you use the related feature, the following information is transferred to and stored in the United States over encrypted network connections.
• Amazon Web Services, Inc. (https://aws.amazon.com/privacy/): account, profile, game, invitation, purchase and reward records and connection information, to host the account and game services; kept for the periods in section 10.
• Google LLC (https://policies.google.com/privacy): your email address and sign-in emails when you use email sign-in, and the messages you send to support; and, when ads are shown, device, app and ad-interaction information through AdMob and its consent service; kept for the periods in section 10 or under Google’s policies.
• Cloudflare, Inc. (https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/): connection information such as IP addresses when you visit this website; kept under Cloudflare’s policies.
• Apple Inc. (https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/): sign-in and transaction identifiers needed to verify sign-in, purchases and authorization revocation; kept under Apple’s policies.
These transfers are necessary to provide the service. You can refuse them by not signing in and not using online features; you can still play single-player and nearby games as a guest, but ads, where shown, still use Google AdMob.
Your rights: you, or your legal representative, may request access to, correction or deletion of your personal information, or suspension of its processing, and may withdraw consent, by emailing support@tablepurrty.com. We respond within the periods required by Korean law. You can also delete your account in the app as described in section 11.
Automatic collection: the app itself does not set web cookies. The advertising SDK may store and read identifiers and cookies on your device to deliver ads and prevent fraud, as described in section 7. You can review advertising choices in the in-app Privacy Options entry where available.
Security measures: we use protected connections and access controls for account services, do not store sign-in codes in plain text, and keep sign-in credentials on your device in the iOS Keychain.
