magic eight does not collect, store, or share any personal information. there is no account, no sign-up, no advertising, and no analytics or tracking of any kind. we don't know who you are, and we like it that way.
your settings — the era you've picked, your chosen 8-ball skin, and how many rare fortunes you've found — are saved only on your device using standard ios storage. this information is never transmitted to us or anyone else.
the app reads your device's motion sensors to know when you flip or shake your phone. this is processed live on your device to trigger the animation and is never recorded, stored, or sent anywhere.
from time to time the app downloads updated fortune text from our server (weirdlittleideas.com) so the answers can stay fresh. this is a one-way download of content — no personal information is sent with the request. the app makes no other network connections and includes no third-party sdks or trackers.
magic eight is suitable for a general audience and collects no data from anyone, including children.
if this policy ever changes, we'll update this page. questions? reach us any time at weirdlittleideas [at] gmail [dot] com.
