Life Flame is provided by IEQ AI Technologies. Privacy contact: lifelifegame2025@gmail.com.
This version has no Life Flame account, login, advertisements, third-party analytics SDKs, cross-app tracking, or cloud storage of your name or flame deadline. It does not request access to your contacts, photos, microphone, camera, precise location, or advertising identifier. The flame artwork renders entirely on your device.
The app stores the name you enter, your purchased time additions, activation times, transaction identifiers and signed transaction records supplied by Apple or Google Play. These records let the app add time correctly, avoid duplicate delivery, and work offline. They are saved in the app's local storage. Changing the displayed name does not create or identify an account.
Your chosen name, activation times and flame deadline are not uploaded to our servers. Selected purchase fields and a random installation identifier are uploaded as described below. Local app data may be included in an Apple device backup according to your device and iCloud settings. That backup is controlled by Apple and your settings, not a Life Flame cloud account.
The app creates a random installation identifier, not an Apple Account identifier or advertising identifier. When you open the app, we send this identifier, the UTC activity date, app version and test or production environment to our Google Cloud backend. Repeated opens on the same day are counted once. We use these records to measure installations, active installations and retention. Reinstallation or changing devices can count as a different installation; we do not attempt to identify you across apps or devices.
After a purchase, the app asynchronously sends the installation identifier and the store's signed transaction or purchase receipt for server verification. The Android version includes a platform label and Google Play purchase token in that signed receipt. Our server may contact Google Play to verify the transaction and distinguish test purchases from real purchases. We retain the verified transaction identifier, product, purchase time, price and currency where supplied, test or production environment, and any reported revocation. Purchase statistics are deduplicated by transaction identifier. Apple may include its transaction metadata in the signed record; we do not receive your Apple Account password or card details, and we do not retain the complete signed record on our server.
These requests are best-effort. Failed activity reports and undelivered purchase reports are retried later. Reporting is never required to deliver purchased time or keep your flame burning. Operational hosting logs may include IP addresses, request times and technical request information; we do not use them for advertising or add IP addresses to the statistics tables. Statistics are stored in the United States on Google Cloud and are accessible only to the developer and hosting provider as needed to operate the service.
Activity records are retained for up to 24 months. Verified transaction records are retained for up to 7 years for reconciliation, support and applicable recordkeeping obligations, then deleted or de-identified. We do not sell this information, use it for targeted advertising or combine it with third-party profiles. Contact the privacy email for access or deletion requests. You can include your installation identifier, available in Settings, so we can locate the correct records. Legally required records may need to be retained.
On iOS, when you load products, make a purchase, or choose Sync Apple purchases, StoreKit communicates with Apple. Apple handles your Apple Account, payment details, fraud checks, and purchase history under its own policies. The developer does not receive your card number. Apple may provide transaction data and sales or diagnostic information through its developer services; those services and device-level sharing choices are governed by Apple's policies.
On Android, Google Play Billing communicates with Google when you load products, make purchases or synchronize unfinished purchases. Google handles the Google Account, payment details, purchase records and fraud checks under Google's policies. We do not receive your Google password or card number. Android automatic app-data cloud backup is disabled in this version; uninstalling or clearing data can permanently remove locally delivered consumable time.
Existing purchased time does not require contacting a developer server to keep running. Demo builds simulate purchases on device. Apple Sandbox builds use Apple test transactions. Neither charges real money.
Our public website and legal pages are hosted on Google Cloud. When you visit them, Google Cloud may process ordinary request information such as IP address, requested URL, request time, and browser information in operational logs. We use those logs for availability, security, and troubleshooting, not advertising. The website does not receive your app name, flame deadline, or purchase ledger. Google Cloud is our hosting provider.
If you email support, we receive the address, message, and attachments you choose to send. Please do not send passwords or payment-card details. We use support messages to answer your request and troubleshoot issues; Gmail is used to receive support email. If you export or share a backup, the record may contain your chosen name and transaction identifiers. Sharing occurs only when you initiate it through the system share sheet. Choose the recipient carefully.
We do not sell personal information or use it for targeted advertising. Support correspondence is retained only as needed to resolve requests and meet applicable obligations. You may request deletion of support correspondence by contacting us; legally required records may need to be retained.
Edit your name at any time by tapping it on the home screen. No account deletion is necessary because no Life Flame account exists. Removing app data or uninstalling may delete locally stored time and names and may not be recoverable; preserve a device backup first. Test builds also include a clearly labeled reset function for test data.
Life Flame is a general-audience digital artwork and is not specifically directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. A parent or guardian with a concern may contact the privacy email above.
