Smoosh!
This Privacy Policy applies only to the Smoosh! iPhone app and the Smoosh!-specific pages on the Goodale Studios website. Other Goodale Studios apps have their own privacy policies.
The current Smoosh! build does not require a Goodale Studios account and does not include advertising, analytics, behavioral tracking, social messaging, or a Goodale Studios app-data server. Apple Game Center is optional and is described below.
Smoosh! stores campaign progress locally on your device, including unlocked levels, level star ratings, high scores, power-up inventory, bug mastery, and settings. This information is used only to provide game features and is not sent to Goodale Studios.
Goodale Studios cannot view, retrieve, correct, or remotely delete this locally stored game information.
If you choose to use Apple Game Center, Smoosh! submits your high score and achievement progress to Apple through GameKit. Game Center sign-in is optional, and all campaign gameplay remains available without it.
Game Center is operated by Apple and is subject to Apple’s privacy practices and your Game Center settings. Goodale Studios does not receive your Apple Account credentials, email address, or Game Center player profile. You can manage Game Center and its privacy controls through iOS Settings and your Apple Account.
Smoosh! uses device audio and haptic feedback for gameplay. It does not request access to your camera, microphone, photos, contacts, precise location, or health information.
You can mute game audio from the Smoosh! title screen and control device sound and haptic behavior through iOS settings.
The current Smoosh! build does not contain advertising or in-app purchases. If advertising, purchases, or related third-party software are added to a future release, this policy and the App Store privacy disclosures will be updated before that release to describe the provider, data practices, and available choices.
The Goodale Studios website host may process routine technical request data, such as IP address, browser type, requested page, and timestamp, to deliver and secure the website. Website activity is separate from locally stored Smoosh! game progress.
If you email support, Goodale Studios receives your email address and anything you choose to include. That information is used to answer your request, investigate problems, protect the service, and meet legal obligations. It is not sold or used for targeted advertising.
Smoosh! does not ask players to create an account, publish content, or provide personal information. A parent or guardian should supervise a child’s use and any communication with support. Contact us if you believe a child sent personal information to support.
Local progress remains on the device until the app’s data is reset or the app is deleted, subject to Apple device-backup behavior. Deleting Smoosh! removes its local data from that device.
Support emails may be retained as reasonably necessary to answer requests, maintain support records, prevent misuse, and meet legal obligations.
This policy may be updated as Smoosh! develops. Material changes will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. For privacy questions, email support@goodalestudios.com and include Smoosh! in the subject line.
