Privacy policy

Last updated November 6, 2026

In short: Ghost Tracker keeps your sessions on your phone. There are no accounts, no ads and no tracking, and we never sell your data. The web version counts how many games are started, anonymously. The Android and iPhone apps use RevenueCat to check purchases, which receives an anonymous ID and your purchase history, never your games.

This policy explains how the Ghost Tracker app (on Android, on iPhone and on the web at play.ghosttracker.app) handles information. It applies to the app and to this website, ghosttracker.app.

What the app stores, and where

When you play, Ghost Tracker saves your session history on your device: dates, games played, scores against the ghost, results, and in-app progress such as XP, badges and the ghosts you've busted. This data:

stays in the app's storage on your phone (or in your browser, for the web version),
is never sent to us or to any server we run (apart from the anonymous game-start count on the web, described below),
is deleted if you uninstall the app, clear the app's or browser's data, or use Delete all data in the app.

Ghost Tracker does not ask for your name, email address, location, contacts, photos or any other personal information, and it doesn't require an account.

Backups

The app can create a backup file when you tap Back up now. You choose where that file goes, such as Google Drive, iCloud Drive, email or your phone's storage. Once you send it somewhere, it's handled by that service under its own privacy policy. We don't receive a copy. When you restore a backup, the file is read on your device only.

Fonts from Google

The app and this website load their fonts from Google Fonts. When you're online, your device requests the font files from Google's servers, which means Google receives your IP address and basic browser information, as with any web request. No session data or other information from the app is sent. See Google's privacy policy for how Google handles these requests. After the first load, the fonts are saved on your device so the app works offline.

Anonymous game counts (web version only)

When you start a game in the web version at play.ghosttracker.app, your browser tells our server which game you started and which ghost you're playing, for example "9-ball, the Wraith". We add one to a running count for that day, game and ghost, so we know how many games are played. That count is all we keep:

no name, account, ID, cookie or device identifier is sent or stored,
your IP address and browser details are not stored with the count, so a count can't be linked to you or to your other games,
scores, results and the rest of your session history are never sent.

The server runs on Cloudflare, which, like any web host, handles your IP address to deliver the request. The Android and iPhone apps don't send game counts.

Advertising and tracking

Ghost Tracker contains no advertising and no tracking tools, and it doesn't use third-party analytics services. Apart from the anonymous game count above, the only data the app sends off your phone goes to the purchase service described below, and it is used only to handle purchases. We don't sell your information or use it for advertising.

Purchases

The Android app includes a 7-day free trial, then offers a monthly subscription or a one-time lifetime unlock. Payments are processed by Google Play under the Google Privacy Policy.

The iPhone app lets you play the first two ghosts free, then offers a monthly subscription (which may include a free trial offered through Apple) or a one-time lifetime unlock. Payments are processed by Apple through the App Store under Apple's Privacy Policy.

We never see or store your card or payment details.

To confirm which purchases are active, the app uses RevenueCat, a purchase-management service that acts on our behalf. When the app checks or makes a purchase, RevenueCat receives:

a random, anonymous ID the app creates for your installation (not your name, email, Google account or Apple ID),
your Ghost Tracker purchase history from Google Play or the App Store, such as which plan you bought, when, its price and whether it's active, refunded or cancelled,
basic technical details sent with any internet request, such as your IP address, country, device model, operating system version and app version.

RevenueCat uses this only to verify and manage your purchases for us, and we can see it in RevenueCat's dashboard to help with refunds or support. None of your game data, sessions or scores is sent. The Android 7-day trial and the iPhone free ghosts are counted on your phone and aren't sent anywhere. The web version at play.ghosttracker.app doesn't include RevenueCat. You can ask us to delete your purchase records at any time by emailing support@ghosttracker.app; Google or Apple keeps its own record of your payment.

Children

Ghost Tracker is not directed at children under 13, and it doesn't knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your choices

See your data: everything the app stores is shown in the app or included in a backup file.
Delete your data: use Delete all data on the app's data screen, or uninstall the app.
Move your data: use Back up now and Restore to carry your sessions to a new phone.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new "last updated" date. Significant changes will also be noted in the app's release notes.
