1. Overview
This Privacy Policy applies to applications and services operated by Ivory Rune, including our mobile applications (such as Roamark and Last Safe Tile) and our official website (ivoryrune.com). We are committed to transparency, data minimization, and respecting your digital sovereignty.
2. Information We Process
Depending on the specific application or feature you use, Ivory Rune may process:
- Account and Profile Information: When you sign in to Roamark, we process your account identifier, email address, sign-in provider, and any display name or profile photo you choose to add. Your public profile can be found by other users; you can set it to private in the app.
- Application Content & History: In Roamark, your recorded places, visit dates, notes, ratings, tags, and progress. In offline games like Last Safe Tile, gameplay stats and high scores are stored locally on your device.
- Photos & Media: Place photos you select or capture stay on your device unless you use cloud photo sync. A profile photo you choose to upload is stored with your account and may appear to other users.
- Voice Notes: Audio recordings are stored locally on your device and are not uploaded as part of cloud sync.
- Photo Location Metadata: If you use features like Photo Discovery, GPS metadata in photos you select is read strictly on-device to suggest places you may have visited.
- Traveler Picks (Community Recommendations): If you choose to recommend a place, we store the place name, location hierarchy, and a contribution record. Recommendations are anonymous by default unless you choose to show your display name. Traveler Picks do not include your private photos, notes, or visit history.
- Social Features: If you use profiles, follows, travel feed posts, reactions, or reports, we process the information needed to provide those features. A feed post can include your display name, profile photo, place, and any photo or note you choose to post. Other users may see content you share through these features.
- In-App Purchases: Product identifiers and entitlement tokens used to unlock premium features. All payment details and card numbers are processed exclusively through Google Play and Apple App Store billing.
- Diagnostics & Analytics: Firebase Analytics usage events and Firebase Crashlytics error reports help us understand app use and diagnose crashes. Usage events do not include your place names, coordinates, notes, or photo paths; the services may process app and device identifiers.
3. App Permissions
We request permissions only when strictly necessary for user-initiated functionality:
- Photos & Storage: To allow you to pick and save place photos.
- Camera: To take a photo when you choose a camera check-in.
- Location / Metadata: To read geotags from photos you choose for on-device Photo Discovery, or to get your current location when you choose a camera check-in.
- Microphone: To record optional voice memos (requested only with an explicit in-app prompt).
You can adjust or revoke permissions at any time through your operating system settings.
4. Third-Party Infrastructure
Our applications rely on industry-standard infrastructure providers:
- Google Firebase: For authentication, cloud database and storage, analytics, crash diagnostics, and web hosting.
- Google Maps Platform and Mapbox: For maps and place discovery, depending on the app build and feature used.
- Google Play Billing & Apple In-App Purchases: For secure payment handling.
These third parties process information under their respective privacy policies and security standards.
5. Account & Data Deletion
You maintain full control over your data:
- In-App Deletion: In Roamark, go to Settings → Delete Account → Delete Account & Data and confirm. The app will show whether the request succeeded. If it fails, try again or contact support.
- Web Deletion: You can submit a deletion request via our Data Deletion page or by emailing our support desk.
The in-app deletion process removes your account, private cloud records, cloud files stored under your account, public profile, and Traveler Pick attribution. A purchase receipt record with your account ID removed is retained and blocked to prevent a purchase token from being reused. If you used the social feed or follow features, contact support so related records can also be reviewed and removed. See the Data Deletion page for details.
6. Children's Privacy
Our applications and websites are not directed to children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13.
