Privacy Policy

Mini Match is a real-time social number game for iPhone. This policy explains what information Mini Match processes when you use the app and this website.

Information we process

• Account and identity data. Playing uses Sign in with Apple, Firebase Authentication, and Game Center. We process a Firebase user identifier and signed Game Center identity-verification data, including your Game Center player identifier. We process your Game Center display name as part of your in-game profile. Apple and Firebase process the credentials used to link your Apple sign-in to your Mini Match account. The app may also load your Game Center profile photo from Apple for display in a match; it does not upload that photo to the Mini Match service.
• Profile and gameplay data. We process your assigned in-match avatar, table membership and status, party code, private number selection, revealed round results, and statistics used for Game Center achievements. Your selection is hidden from other players until the round is revealed; revealed selections and results are then shared with players in that match.
• Service data. Our service necessarily processes authentication tokens, requests, and basic network information to operate and protect the game. The Mini Match website is static and does not add analytics, advertising trackers, or its own cookies. GitHub may process request information when it hosts the website through GitHub Pages.

How we use information

We use this information to authenticate players, create and join matches, keep selections private until reveal, calculate results, maintain achievements, reconnect active players, prevent unauthorized access, and operate and protect Mini Match. The current app does not use personal information for targeted advertising or contain tracking functionality.

Storage and sharing

Mini Match uses Apple services, including Game Center and Sign in with Apple, and Google services, including Firebase Authentication, Cloud Firestore, and Cloud Run. Game state is stored in Cloud Firestore. Direct client access is limited to authenticated members of a table, while sensitive game state remains server-only. We share information with these providers only as needed to deliver their services, and with other players only as described above or when you choose to interact with them through Game Center.

Retention and deletion

We do not currently set a fixed retention period for stored table records. You can permanently delete your Mini Match profile from the app's settings. Deletion removes the associated Firebase account and Mini Match statistics, removes you from active tables, removes identifying profile fields from retained table results, and revokes the linked Apple authorization when applicable. Pseudonymous result records, including revealed selections, may remain. Game Center scores and achievements remain managed by Apple.

Your choices

You can manage Game Center and Sign in with Apple through your Apple account settings. You can delete your Mini Match profile in the app. For another privacy request, open an issue in the support tracker below. Because issues are public, do not include authentication tokens, private account details, or other sensitive information.

Security

We use authenticated requests and access controls designed to protect game and account data. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as Mini Match changes. The effective date above will identify the current version.
