Privacy Policy for Night of Souls

Last Updated: October 10, 2026

Introduction

Night of Souls ("we", "our", or "the app") is a branching gamebook set in a Portuguese mountain village on the night of the dead. This Privacy Policy explains how the app handles your information.

Information We Collect

Night of Souls stores your game (saved passage, Fear, codewords, journal), achievements and settings locally on your device. We do not collect, transmit, or share your personal information with our own servers; we have none. There is no account, sign-up, or login of any kind.

The only third-party service in the app that collects data automatically is advertising, which collects the following:

• Advertising ID: Used by Google AdMob for ad personalization and measurement

Data Storage

• Your saved game, unlocked achievements and settings (language, reading pace, sound, music) are stored locally on your device
• The illustration tilt effect reads the device's motion sensors while the app is open; those readings are used on the device and never stored or sent anywhere
• No user accounts or authentication required

Third-Party Services

Google AdMob

The app displays advertisements through Google AdMob. AdMob may collect certain information for ad personalization and measurement purposes. This may include:

• Device identifiers (such as the Android Advertising ID)
• IP address
• App usage data related to ad interactions

If you are in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, the app shows a consent prompt (via Google's User Messaging Platform) before requesting personalized ads, and honors the choice you make there.

You can opt out of personalized ads by adjusting your device's ad settings.

Google Play In-App Review

After some milestones the app may show Google Play's rating prompt. It is run by Google Play: any rating or review you leave goes to Google Play under your Google account, and the app never sees it.

Feedback Emails

The "Send feedback" link on the title screen opens your own email app with a message addressed to us. Nothing is sent unless you choose to send that email. The draft includes a short diagnostics block you can read or delete before sending:

• App version and build number
• Operating system and version
• App language
• The passage number of your saved game, if any

If you send it, we receive your email address and what you wrote. We use it only to reply and to fix the problem you report, we do not share it, and you can ask us to delete it at any time by writing to the address below.

Data We Do NOT Collect

• Personal information (name, email, phone number), except in a feedback email you choose to send
• Location data
• Contacts, photos, videos, or files
• Payment information

Your saved game and progress stay on your device and are never transmitted to any server.

Children's Privacy

Night of Souls is a horror story and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Data Security and Encryption

Any data transmitted between your device and the AdMob service is encrypted in transit using industry-standard HTTPS protocols.

Data Deletion

Local Data (Night of Souls game and progress): You can delete it at any time by:

• Options → "Erase saved game", which removes your saved game, or
• Uninstalling the app, which removes everything it stored on your device

Feedback emails: write to the address below and we will delete any email you sent us.

Data Collected by Google (AdMob): We do not store any of your data on our servers and cannot delete data collected by Google. To manage this data:

• Stop future collection: Uninstall the app
• Opt out of personalized ads: Device Settings → Google → Ads → Opt out of Ads Personalization
• Request deletion: Contact Google directly at Google Privacy Support

Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access your data (stored locally on your device)
• Delete your data (via the Options screen or uninstalling)
• Opt out of personalized ads (via device settings)

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page. The "Last Updated" date at the top indicates when this policy was last revised.
