Farkle Companion Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 2026-05-04
Farkle Companion is developed and operated by ORYAN Studios LLC (“we”, “our”, or “us”).
This Privacy Policy explains how the Farkle Companion app handles information. It supplements the main ORYAN Studios, LLC Privacy Policy.
1. Overview
Farkle Companion is designed to keep score, present a shared scoreboard, and support local display options during play.
We do not require user accounts, and we do not sell your personal data.
2. Data Stored on Your Device
Farkle Companion stores gameplay and settings data locally on your device. This may include:
- Player names and player history
- Score history and active game session state
- Player statistics and saved game settings
- Display preferences, sound settings, and related app preferences
This local data is used to restore sessions, keep score history, and preserve your preferred app behavior.
3. iCloud Sync
Farkle Companion includes support for iCloud key-value storage for certain local game data.
When iCloud sync is available and used in the app, supported data such as player history, score history, player statistics, and related saved state may be stored through Apple’s iCloud services so your data can stay in sync.
We do not operate our own cloud account system for this app, and we do not receive that synced data on our own servers.
4. Local Network and TV Display Features
Farkle Companion requests Local Network access to support display and companion features on the same network.
This access may be used to:
- Host a local Wi-Fi scoreboard page for a TV or browser on your network
- Discover and connect to a local tvOS companion using Bonjour service discovery
- Send live scoreboard state to local devices you choose to use with the app
These features are for local-network use and are intended to work between devices you control or choose to connect during play.
5. External Display and AirPlay
Farkle Companion can present a scoreboard on an external display through supported iOS display features such as mirrored output, external display scenes, and AirPlay routing.
Using those display paths may send scoreboard content to the display destination you selected.
6. No Advertising or Third-Party Tracking
Farkle Companion does not:
- serve third-party advertising
- track you across apps or websites
- use advertising identifiers for marketing
- include third-party analytics or marketing SDKs
7. Diagnostics and Performance Work
The app includes internal performance and debug-related code used to improve responsiveness and display behavior during development and testing.
That internal instrumentation is part of the app’s operation and is not described here as third-party analytics.
8. No User Accounts
Farkle Companion does not require account creation.
We do not ask you to sign in to use the app’s core scorekeeping and display features.
9. Data Sharing and Control
You control the use of the app’s local and display-related features.
You can:
- clear app data by removing saved sessions and history in the app where available
- turn off or avoid local-network features
- disable or avoid iCloud sync if you do not want supported data synced through Apple
- remove app data by uninstalling the app
10. Data Retention
Data stored by Farkle Companion remains on your device until you delete it, reset it, replace it through later saved state, or remove the app.
If iCloud sync is used, synced data may remain in your Apple account until it is removed through the app or Apple’s systems.
11. Security
Farkle Companion stores its local data using standard Apple platform storage mechanisms available to the app on your device.
No method of storage or transmission is perfectly secure, but the app is designed to avoid unnecessary third-party data transfer.
12. Children
Farkle Companion is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the app.
13. Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The effective date will be updated when changes are posted.
