Privacy Policy

Effective Date: May 10, 2026

Last updated: September 28, 2026

This Privacy Policy applies to all nine iOS applications published under the Modern Curriculum Games name by MC AI Studio LLC ("we," "us," or "our"), a New York limited liability company based in Brooklyn, New York, United States, founded by Michael Carroll. By using any of our apps, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

If you have questions, contact us at [email protected].

1. Who We Are

Modern Curriculum Games is an independent iOS game studio operated by MC AI Studio LLC, a New York limited liability company founded by Michael Carroll. Our apps are casual and educational mobile games available on the Apple App Store.

2. What Data We Collect

We collect very little data. Here is a plain-language breakdown of exactly what is gathered and why.

Advertising

The current version of every app contains no advertising software. No ads are displayed, no advertising identifier (IDFA) is accessed, and no advertising network receives any data about you. There is no tracking permission prompt because there is nothing to track.

If advertising is introduced in a future version, this policy will be updated before that version is released, and the App Store privacy information will be updated to match.

Purchase Receipts (RevenueCat)

We use RevenueCat, Inc. to manage in-app purchases and subscriptions. When you make a purchase, Apple provides a purchase receipt that is processed by RevenueCat to verify and unlock premium features. RevenueCat receives metadata about the transaction (such as product identifiers, purchase dates, and transaction identifiers). RevenueCat does not receive your name, email address, or payment card details; those remain with Apple.

Game Progress (Stored On Your Device)

Your game progress is stored locally on your device only. The current version of every app has no cloud sync, so your saves are not uploaded anywhere and we cannot see them. Deleting an app removes its saved progress from your device.

If cloud sync is introduced in a future version, this policy will be updated before that version is released.

3. What We Do NOT Collect

We want to be explicit about what we do not collect:

• No name, username, or email address
• No location data (we do not request location permissions)
• No contacts or address book access
• No camera or microphone data
• No analytics or behavioral tracking (we use no analytics software development kit)
• No social media credentials or account linking
• No device logs sent to our servers

4. How Data Is Stored and Protected

We do not operate our own servers or databases for user data. The only third party that receives anything is RevenueCat, and only purchase metadata, as described above.

5. Third-Party Services and Their Privacy Policies

Our apps integrate the following third-party services. Each has its own privacy policy that governs how it handles data:

• Apple Inc. (payment processing for in-app purchases): https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/
• RevenueCat, Inc. (purchase receipt validation): https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy

No advertising or analytics provider is integrated in the current version.

6. Advertising

The current version of every app is ad free. No ad network is integrated, so there is nothing to opt out of and no tracking permission is requested.

If advertising is added in a future version, this section will be rewritten to name the network, describe exactly what it accesses, and explain how to opt out, and the change will ship before or with that version.

7. Children's Privacy

General Apps (Rated 4+)

Most of our apps carry an Apple App Store age rating of 4+. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age, consistent with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). Because we collect no personal information from any user, and because game progress never leaves the device, there is no meaningful collection of children's data through our apps.

Future Path: Life Sim (Rated 9+)

Future Path: Life Sim is rated 9+ on the App Store. This app is a turn-based life decision simulator that introduces basic decision-making concepts using fictional in-game Credits. We collect no personal information from users of this app. The current version contains no advertising of any kind, so there is no ad network, no behavioral tracking, no advertising identifier, and no real-time bidding on user data. If advertising is ever added to this app it will use a kid-appropriate, human-reviewed contextual network, and this policy will be updated before that version ships.

Our Commitment

We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately at [email protected] and we will take appropriate steps.

8. Your Rights Under GDPR (European Users)

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you have rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and equivalent local laws, including:

• Article 15 - Right of Access: You can request a copy of any personal data we hold about you.
• Article 16 - Right to Rectification: You can request correction of inaccurate data.
• Article 17 - Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): You can request deletion of your data.
• Article 18 - Right to Restriction of Processing: You can ask us to limit how we process your data.
• Article 20 - Right to Data Portability: You can request your data in a portable format.
• Article 21 - Right to Object: You can object to processing of your data.

Because we hold virtually no personal data ourselves (purchase metadata is held by Apple and RevenueCat), the most effective way to exercise these rights is to contact those services directly using the privacy policy links in Section 5. For any request you wish to route through us, email [email protected] and we will respond within 30 days.

9. Your Rights Under CCPA (California Residents)

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) grants you the following rights:

• Right to Know: You may request to know what personal information we have collected about you, the sources, the purpose, and whether we have sold or disclosed it.
• Right to Delete: You may request deletion of personal information we have collected.
• Right to Opt-Out of Sale: We do not sell personal information. We do not have a "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" link because we make no such sales.
• Right to Non-Discrimination: Exercising your CCPA rights will not result in different service or pricing.

To submit a CCPA request, email [email protected] with the subject line "CCPA Request."

10. Data Retention

We do not store your personal data on our own systems, so there is nothing for us to delete or retain beyond what third-party services hold as described above. Game save data stays on your device until you delete the app. Purchase records are retained by RevenueCat per their own retention policy.

11. International Data Transfers

Our apps are available worldwide. By using our apps, data may be transferred to and processed in the United States and other countries where Google, Apple, and RevenueCat operate. These companies maintain appropriate safeguards for international data transfers, including Standard Contractual Clauses where required by the GDPR.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the Effective Date at the top of this page. Continued use of our apps after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy. For significant changes, we will make reasonable efforts to notify users through an in-app message or App Store update notes.
