Privacy Policy
Last updated: 30 October 2026. This policy explains what data the iOS game Hatchly (bundle com.loukamorici.eclosion) uses. Publisher: Louka Morici, independent developer, Belgium. Contact: zikolouka@gmail.com.
1. No account, game data stays on your device
Hatchly has no account, no login and no server of its own. Your progress, creatures, settings and purchase records are stored only on your iPhone (in the app's local storage). The developer never receives them. Deleting the app deletes this data.
2. Advertising (Google AdMob)
The free version shows ads through Google AdMob (Google Ireland Ltd / Google LLC). To deliver and measure ads and to prevent fraud, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect: a device identifier (the advertising identifier only if you allow it, otherwise the identifier for vendors), an approximate location derived from your IP address, information about ad interactions, and diagnostic data (crashes, performance). This data is processed by Google under its own policy: policies.google.com/privacy and how Google uses information from apps.
3. Your consent (GDPR) and tracking
In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, a Google consent form (User Messaging Platform) is shown before personalised ads. You can change your choice at any time in the game: Settings → Ad choices. This version does not ask for permission to track you (Apple's App Tracking Transparency) and does not access the advertising identifier without it; ads may then be non-personalised. Rewarded videos are always optional.
4. Purchases
In-app purchases are processed entirely by Apple. The developer never sees your name, your payment details or your Apple ID. The app only receives an anonymous confirmation from Apple to unlock what you bought.
5. Legal basis and retention
Ads: your consent (art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) where required, or the legitimate interest of offering a free game. Local game data is kept until you delete the app. Data processed by Google is kept according to Google's retention rules.
6. Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict and object, and to withdraw consent at any time (Settings → Ad choices). As the developer holds no personal data about you, requests about advertising data are best sent to Google; you can also write to zikolouka@gmail.com and I will help. You may lodge a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority (dataprotectionauthority.be).
7. Deleting your data
Delete the app to erase all game data. To reset your advertising identifier, use iPhone Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking / Apple Advertising.
8. Children
Hatchly is suitable for all ages but is not designed specifically for children and does not knowingly collect personal data from children. Ad requests are not tagged as directed to children; parents can disable ads by purchasing "No Ads" or by refusing personalised ads in the consent form.
9. Changes
This policy may be updated; the date above will change and important changes will be mentioned in the app's release notes.

- Pas de compte : ta partie, tes créatures et tes réglages restent uniquement sur ton iPhone. Le développeur ne les reçoit jamais. Supprimer l'app efface ces données.
- Publicité (Google AdMob) : pour afficher et mesurer les pubs et lutter contre la fraude, le SDK Google peut collecter un identifiant de l'appareil, une position approximative (adresse IP), les interactions avec les pubs et des diagnostics. Ces données sont traitées par Google (règles de Google).
- Consentement (RGPD) : en Europe, un formulaire Google s'affiche avant les pubs personnalisées ; tu peux changer d'avis à tout moment dans Réglages → Choix publicitaires. Cette version ne demande pas l'autorisation de suivi d'Apple (ATT). Les vidéos récompensées sont toujours facultatives.
- Achats : gérés entièrement par Apple ; le développeur ne voit ni ton nom ni tes moyens de paiement.
- Durée : les données du jeu restent tant que l'app est installée ; les données publicitaires selon les règles de Google.
- Tes droits : accès, rectification, effacement, opposition, retrait du consentement. Écris à zikolouka@gmail.com. Tu peux aussi porter plainte auprès de l'Autorité de protection des données (Belgique).
