In this policy, "personal information" means personal information as defined by Japan's Act on the Protection of Personal Information.
Overview
The teams, players, and pennants (seasons) you create in the App are stored on your device. The only thing we obtain off the device is anonymous usage data used to improve the App's quality. Details are below.
Information Stored on Your Device
The following is stored on your device and is not sent to us or any third party.
- The names and ratings of the teams and players you create
- Batting orders (lineups); pennant (season) results, standings, training points, and signing/trade history
- Achievements, career stats, and season news
- App settings such as your daily free-game count
Information We Collect (Usage Analytics)
To improve the App's quality, we collect anonymous usage data through Firebase Analytics (Google LLC). We collect data about actions taken in the App, and never the content you enter, such as team or player names.
3.1 What we collect
- Feature-usage events (e.g., started a game, finished a game, viewed the paywall, selected a plan, completed / canceled / failed / restored a purchase)
- Metadata attached to each event (number of innings, free vs. paid, identifiers of the teams played, the purchased plan type, amount and currency, etc.)
- General usage statistics that Firebase collects by default, such as app launches, sessions, device type, OS version, and app version
3.2 What we do not collect
- Content you enter, such as the names of teams or players you create
- Any other information that could identify you personally
In-App Purchases and Subscriptions
The App is free to download and play, and you can enjoy a set number of games for free each day. Beyond that, and for advanced features (such as tactical reviews, continuing a pennant, and unlimited games), you can use the paid "Night Game Pro" plan (monthly / annual / lifetime).
- Payment information: Purchases are processed through Apple's App Store. Payment details such as credit card numbers are managed by Apple and are never received by us.
- Subscription status: To manage and verify plan status, type (monthly / annual / lifetime), trial status, and similar, we use RevenueCat (RevenueCat, Inc.). RevenueCat receives your purchase and subscription status together with an anonymous in-app identifier tied to it. Contact details such as your name or email address are not shared.
- Purchase facts: Facts such as starting, completing, canceling, failing, or restoring a purchase are also recorded as anonymous events in the usage analytics described above (and may include amount and currency).
- Ad effectiveness measurement (Apple Search Ads): If we run Apple Search Ads, then to measure their effectiveness we obtain an "attribution token" via Apple's mechanism (AdServices) and share it through RevenueCat. This lets us understand, anonymously, which ad led to a subscription. This is Apple's privacy-preserving mechanism — it is not the advertising identifier (IDFA) and does not require tracking permission (ATT). It contains no personal information such as your name.
Third-Party Services (Provision and Outsourcing)
We use the following external services only to the extent necessary to provide and improve the App.
- Firebase Analytics (Google LLC): anonymous usage analytics
- RevenueCat (RevenueCat, Inc.): managing subscription status and processing ad attribution
- Apple (App Store / Search Ads): app distribution and purchase processing, and search-ad attribution (AdServices)
International Transfer
Some of the external services above operate servers outside Japan (such as in the United States). As a result, usage data and subscription status may be processed and stored outside Japan; we handle such data appropriately in accordance with applicable laws.
Security
Analytics data sent off the device contains no content, is anonymized, and is transmitted over encrypted connections. In the unlikely event of a leak involving information we handle, we will work to confirm the facts, investigate the cause, and prevent recurrence, taking the actions required by law.
Retention and Deletion
Data on your device is retained for as long as you use the App. You can delete on-device data at any time by uninstalling the App (uninstalling erases the on-device data).
The usage-analytics data we collect is retained for the period necessary to achieve its purpose, and is appropriately deleted or anonymized when no longer needed.
Your Rights
You may request disclosure, correction, suspension of use, or deletion of the information we handle. On-device data can be deleted by uninstalling the App, and subscriptions can be managed or canceled from your device's Settings (Apple ID subscriptions). For other requests or questions, please contact us at the contact point below. After verifying your identity, we will respond as promptly as possible in accordance with the law.
Children's Privacy
The App is not designed to collect personal information from a specific age group. No account sign-up is required, and your game data is stored on the device. We do not intentionally collect personally identifiable information from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may revise this policy in response to changes in law or our services. If there are significant changes, we will provide notice on this page or our website.
