Privacy policy

Hyperbolic is a racing game for iPhone and iPad. This policy is short because the game collects nothing about you.

What Hyperbolic collects

Nothing. Hyperbolic has no analytics, no advertising, no tracking, no crash reporting, no accounts and no servers of its own, and it contains no third-party SDKs. The game makes no network requests of its own. The developer receives no data from the app.

What stays on your device

Your progress (unlocked levels, best laps and their ghosts, counters), tutorial state and settings are saved on your device so the game remembers them. Deleting the app deletes them.

Apple services you can choose to use

Hyperbolic uses three Apple services. Each is handled by Apple under Apple's privacy policy, and the developer cannot see your data in any of them.

• Game Center. If you are signed in to Game Center on your device, your lap times go to Game Center leaderboards and your achievements to your Game Center profile, and the results show your friends' times. In VS FRIEND, race data (positions, steering and boost input, gates, falls and finish times) is sent through Game Center directly to your friend's device during the race. Signing in is optional; without it, the game works offline.
• Apple Music. Only if you choose Apple Music in Settings → MUSIC does the game ask for permission to use your music library, through Apple's MusicKit. It then lists your playlists and plays them in races on your device. Hyperbolic doesn't store your library and doesn't send it anywhere.
• iCloud. If you are signed in to iCloud, your unlocks, best laps with their ghosts, counters, tutorial state and settings sync between your own devices through iCloud key-value storage in your own iCloud account. Turn this off in Settings → ABOUT → ICLOUD SYNC. Your saves then stay on the device, and nothing already in iCloud is deleted.

When the game asks you to rate it, the request goes through Apple's standard App Store review prompt.

Children

Hyperbolic collects no personal information from anyone, including children.

Changes

If this ever changes, this page will be updated before the app does, and the date above will change.
