Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Footy Fortune ("the app", "we", "us") handles information when you use the Footy Fortune iOS application — a daily football horoscope in which you get a football sign, read fortunes and lock prophecies on real matches.
The short version. Footy Fortune has no account and doesn't ask for your name. Your sign, prophecies, scores, streaks and settings are stored on your device. When the oracle writes a fortune, a reading or a verdict, only the facts needed (your football sign and, for a match, the team names and score) are sent to our backend and AI provider — never anything that identifies you. If you allow notifications, we send occasional reminders via OneSignal. We use AppsFlyer to measure marketing; the app plays exactly the same whether or not you allow tracking.
1. Information we process
a. Game data on your device
Your football sign, prophecies, results, scores, streaks, achievements, profile (an optional favourite team and birth month used to pick your sign) and settings are stored only on your device. There is no account and we do not receive this data. Clearing your statistics in the app, or deleting the app, removes it.
b. Oracle fortunes, readings & verdicts
The app can show an AI-written daily fortune, a star reading on your pick and a verdict after a match. To generate them, the app sends only what's needed — your football sign and, for a match, the team names and the score — to our backend (a Cloudflare Worker, which forwards to the AI provider Groq). No personal data is sent, the text is purely cosmetic, and it never affects scores or outcomes. If there's no connection, the app uses built-in lines instead, so it keeps working offline.
c. Push notifications — OneSignal
If you allow notifications, we use OneSignal to send occasional reminders — for example, "read your fortune", "lock your picks before kickoff" or "your verdict is ready". OneSignal assigns your installation a push token and processes basic device information to deliver these messages. You can turn notifications off at any time in iOS Settings, and the app works fully without them.
d. Attribution & marketing measurement — AppsFlyer
We use AppsFlyer to understand which marketing campaign led to your install and to measure app installs and sessions. AppsFlyer processes device identifiers and install/session events. If you grant tracking permission, this may include the Apple Advertising Identifier (IDFA).
e. Diagnostics
We may receive aggregated, anonymised crash and performance data to keep the app stable.
2. App Tracking Transparency
iOS asks your permission before the app can track you across other apps and websites. If you deny, AppsFlyer will not use the IDFA. Footy Fortune plays exactly the same either way — no feature is gated behind it. Change it any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
3. Third-party services
The services below process data on our behalf; their own policies apply:
- OneSignal (push notifications) — onesignal.com/privacy_policy
- AppsFlyer (attribution) — appsflyer.com/legal
- Groq (AI fortunes, readings & verdicts) — groq.com/privacy-policy
- Cloudflare (backend proxy & hosting) — cloudflare.com/privacypolicy
4. How we use information
- To generate the oracle's fortunes, readings and verdicts.
- To send notifications you have opted into.
- To measure the effectiveness of our marketing.
- To keep the app secure and stable.
We do not sell your personal information.
5. Data retention
Data on your device remains until you clear your statistics or delete the app. The facts sent for oracle text are processed to produce a reply and are not used to build a profile of you. Data held by our providers follows their standard retention periods.
6. Children
Footy Fortune is intended for a general audience aged 13 and older and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
7. Your choices
- Notifications — turn off any time in iOS Settings.
- Tracking — deny or revoke in iOS Settings.
- Game data — clear your statistics in the app's Settings.
- Requests — email us to ask a question or request deletion of data associated with your device.
8. Security
Requests to our backend are sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS). No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect the limited data we process.
9. International users
Our providers may process data on servers outside your country. By using Footy Fortune you understand your information may be transferred to and processed in those locations.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date above reflects the latest version. Continued use of the app after a change means you accept the updated policy.
