Privacy Policy: Stork Delivery
Who we are
The app is published by MELIQ LABS LLC, 30 N Gould St Ste N, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA ("we"). Contact for anything about your data: hikmet.melik@meliqlabs.com.
The game works without an account. We never ask for your email, phone number, contacts or precise location. The only names we receive are the first names you choose to type into an announcement.
What we process, and why
| Data | Purpose | Kept |
|---|---|---|
| Your game progress and settings | Stored only on your device so you can continue playing. | Until you delete the app. |
| Anonymous play statistics: a random install ID (not linked to you), game events such as "level finished" or "ad shown", the app version and the A/B variant you were given | Balancing levels and features. Sent to our server only if you tap "Allow" in the privacy step; you can withdraw any time in Settings → Privacy. | 90 days. |
| Announcements you create ("Announce your baby"): the baby's and parents' first names, the chosen look, map, message and language | Showing the delivery to people who open your link. The link is a long random code; announcements are not listed or searchable. | 1 year, or until you delete it in the app's album. If several people report it, it is hidden and the names are erased at once. |
| Your IP address | Security and abuse protection (rate limits, reports). We store only a salted hash, never the IP itself. | Rate-limit records: 2 hours. Report records: as long as the reported announcement. |
| Purchases: the store transaction ID and an anonymous purchase ID from RevenueCat | Delivering what you bought, restoring purchases, and making sure each "Announce your baby" purchase creates one announcement. | As long as needed for these purposes and as required by law. |
| Advertising data (Google AdMob): device advertising ID if you allow it, IP address and the approximate location derived from it, device and app information, ad interactions, crash and performance diagnostics of the ads SDK | Showing ads that keep the game free and measuring them. Personalized only with your consent (and, on iOS, only if you allow tracking); otherwise ads are non-personalized. | See Google's policy. |
Your choices
Analytics and ad personalization: asked on first launch (Google's consent form in the EEA, UK and Switzerland, Apple's tracking prompt on iOS, then our own short privacy card). Change it in the app under Settings → Privacy, or for tracking in iOS Settings → Privacy → Tracking.
Ads: rewarded ads are always optional. The one-time "No ads" purchase removes the other ads. Ads never change how hard the game is.
Reminders: off by default. If you turn them on, they are scheduled on your device; nothing is sent to us.
Deleting data: delete your announcements in the app's album; deleting the app removes your local game data. For anything else, write to us; since we hold no name or email, tell us roughly when you played so we can help.
Service providers
We use these processors, each under its own privacy terms: Cloudflare, Inc. (hosting our server and database), Google LLC (AdMob ads and the consent form), RevenueCat, Inc. (purchase handling), Apple Inc. and Google LLC (app stores and payments). Some of them process data outside your country, including in the United States, under the safeguards they provide (such as standard contractual clauses).
Children
The game is suitable for all ages but is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them. Announcements are meant to be created by parents. If you believe a child has given us personal data, contact us and we will delete it.
Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR or Turkey's KVKK), you can ask for access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of your data, object to processing, and withdraw consent at any time without affecting earlier processing. You can also complain to your data protection authority. Turkish users: see the KVKK notice.
Changes
We will update this page when the app's data use changes and show the new date above.
