Privacy Policy
Local Clash — last updated 2026-08-29
This policy describes what Local Clash collects, why, and who it is shared with.
It reflects what the app actually does.
What we collect
- Mobile phone number — used to sign you in and to identify your account. For player accounts, it is the only way to sign in; there is no password.
- Display name and profile picture — only if you set them. They are shown to other players in rankings.
- Your region — the state, province, or prefecture you choose yourself from a list.
- Game activity — which daily stages you played, your scores, and the creatures you have collected.
- Push notification token — only if you allow notifications.
- Device language — to show the app in English or Japanese.
- Crash and error reports — including your IP address, account ID, and display name, so we can investigate failures. Your phone number is not included.
What we do NOT collect
We think this is worth stating plainly, because a game about regions is easy to
mistake for one that tracks you.
- No location data. The app never requests or reads your GPS position. Your region is the one you picked from a list.
- No contacts. The app never reads your address book.
- No advertising identifier (IDFA). The app never asks for App Tracking Transparency permission, so it cannot and does not collect your IDFA, and there is no cross-app tracking.
- No camera or microphone access, except the photo you choose to upload as a profile picture.
How we use it
- To run the game and show your collection.
- To calculate regional, in-region, and global rankings.
- To send notifications you asked for.
- To investigate crashes and errors.
- To understand which parts of the app are used.
Who we share it with
We do not sell your information. We use these services to run the app:
- Cloudflare — stores your account, including your phone number, plus your game activity and profile picture.
- Google (Firebase) — signs you in and delivers your verification code by text message. It receives your phone number for that purpose. Firebase also delivers push notifications, and Firebase Analytics collects app usage and device information; that part does not receive your phone number, and, as above, it does not collect your IDFA.
- Amplitude — receives usage events and your region code. It does not receive your phone number.
- Sentry — receives crash reports, which include your IP address, account ID, and display name. It does not receive your phone number.
Text messages
- We never share, sell, or rent your mobile number. It is used only to sign you in. Google (Firebase) receives it to deliver the message and to identify your account, and we store it in our own database so that one phone number maps to one account.
- Message frequency. We send one message each time you ask for a verification code in the app. We never send scheduled, promotional, or marketing messages.
- Message and data rates may apply.
- There is no password. For player accounts, a verification code is the only way to sign in to Local Clash.
Keeping and deleting your data
We keep your data while your account exists. To delete your account and the data
attached to it, email admin@iykyk.tokyo with your display name and the region
you play in, so that we can find your account. We will delete it within a reasonable period.
Children
Local Clash is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect
information from them. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and
we will remove it.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update this page and the date above.
