Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 4, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Row Fish Row handles information when you use the app.

Summary

Row Fish Row does not use third-party advertising, third-party analytics, cross-app tracking, or tracking domains. The app stores game progress and preferences on your device. It also uses Apple services including iCloud, CloudKit, Game Center, and StoreKit for the features described below. The app does not create a separate account.

Information Stored on Your Device

The app may store local gameplay progress, high scores, daily goal progress, streak state, achievements, language settings, sound settings, selected cosmetics, pearl and starfish balances, and purchase entitlement state on your device.

iCloud Progress and Wallet

When iCloud is available, the app uses Apple's iCloud key-value store to sync some progress and wallet information between your devices. This can include game records, owned cosmetics, pearl and starfish balances, and transaction identifiers used to avoid duplicate purchase delivery. Sync is asynchronous. Data that has not reached iCloud may not be recovered after the app is deleted.

Leaderboard

When online leaderboard sync is available and sharing is not paused, Row Fish Row may automatically submit updated scores after a run using Apple's iCloud/CloudKit services. Opening the leaderboard can also refresh its entries. Leaderboard records can include an identifier provided by Apple, a display name, a row count, best score and distance, and an update timestamp. Leaderboard entries are stored in a public database; other players can see the display name and scores shown in the app.

Leaderboard information is used to display scores and rankings inside the app. The public leaderboard is not used for advertising or tracking.

Friends Races

Friends races use Game Center. Race participants exchange information needed for the lobby and race, such as player names, identifiers, selected boats, positions, and results. A nearby race may use your local network, subject to your device's permission. Practicing against bots does not require Game Center.

In-App Purchases

Depending on the app version, Row Fish Row offers optional cosmetic skins, boat packs and a permanent perk, as well as consumable pearl, starfish, and starter packs. Apple processes purchases through StoreKit. The app reads purchase and transaction information to deliver the items and restore eligible non-consumable purchases. The developer does not receive your full payment card details from Apple.

Data Sharing

Row Fish Row does not sell personal information. The app does not share data with third-party advertising or analytics companies. Apple may process data for iCloud, CloudKit, Game Center, App Store, and StoreKit features according to Apple's own terms and privacy policies.

Children's Privacy

Row Fish Row is designed as a general audience game. The app does not knowingly collect personal information from children for advertising or tracking.

Your Choices

You can delete your public leaderboard entry in Settings > Player > Online Leaderboard > Delete Leaderboard Data; this also pauses score sharing on that device. Removing the app deletes its local data, but does not by itself delete the public leaderboard entry or data stored in iCloud. You can manage iCloud and Game Center through your device's Apple account settings. Apple handles purchase and billing records according to its own policies.

Local progress is kept on your device until it is removed or replaced. iCloud progress may remain with your iCloud account, and a public leaderboard entry remains until it is deleted. To request deletion or ask about your information, contact us through the support page below; please do not post sensitive information in a public support issue.

Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated when the app changes. The updated date above will reflect the latest version.
