mdeal privacy policy

What mdeal keeps on your phone, and what other players receive.

On your phone

mdeal stores your display name, coins, games, unlocks, rival records, circuit progress, saved tables, connection logs, and the list of players you have blocked. A persistent device identifier (the system's identifier for this app vendor) is saved so a later rename still counts as the same person at a nearby table. There is no mdeal account server.

Nearby play

Same-room games use the local network and Bluetooth so phones can find each other. The Bonjour service is mdeal-game. Each phone sends the others its display name and that persistent device identifier. Those phones can keep your name and device identifier in their own rival records until they clear their saved information. Nothing from a nearby game is uploaded to an mdeal server.

Online play

Online 1v1 uses Game Center. Apple handles sign-in and carries the match. The other player receives your scoped Game Center player identifier and the name chosen in mdeal (or your Game Center name if you left the name as Player). Game moves travel through that match. mdeal does not keep a copy on a server of its own. Apple's privacy policy covers your Game Center account.

Advertising

[TBC: which ad network mdeal uses, what it collects, whether ads are personalised, and how to opt out. Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt and the App Store privacy label must match this section.]

Notifications and logs

Turn reminders are scheduled on your device by iOS. They are not sent through us. Connection and game logs stay on your phone unless you choose to copy or share them. The logs do not include the contents of network packets.

How long it stays

Saved information remains until you clear it in Settings, or until you delete mdeal. Clearing removes games, coins, unlocks, rival records, saved tables, logs, the device identifier, your display name, and blocked players. It does not delete your Apple ID or Game Center profile. The next nearby table creates a new device identifier. Other players may still have your previous name in their records until they clear theirs.

Questions

Email [TBC: support email] with any privacy question, or visit mdeal support.
