Munch Monsters collects nothing. It has no accounts, no analytics, no advertising, no tracking and no crash reporting of its own. There is no networking code in the game: it cannot send anything anywhere, and it works identically with the internet switched off.
We built it this way on purpose. Munch Monsters is made for children aged 4–7, and we think the only correct amount of data to collect from a child is none.
What the game stores, and where
The game remembers your child's progress — which levels are complete, the star ratings, which foods are unlocked in the Food-Dex, and whether music is on. All of it is saved on the device itself, inside the app's own storage. It never leaves the device. Deleting the app deletes all of it.
What we never do
No personal information is collected, from children or adults. No name, no email, no photos, no location, no contacts, no microphone, no camera.
No third-party services run inside the game. No ad networks, no analytics SDKs, no social media buttons, no external links a child could wander through. The only link out of the game is this privacy policy, and it sits behind a grown-ups-only question.
No advertising identifier is used, and nothing is shared with anyone — there is nothing to share.
The game never asks for a permission, on iPhone, iPad or Android: no camera, microphone, location, contacts or photos. On Android it declares only what Google Play's billing needs for the optional Monster Pack (billing, and checking whether the device is online), which never shows a prompt, and it doesn't ask for internet access.
The App Store and Google Play
If you download Munch Monsters from the App Store or Google Play, Apple or Google handles the download and tells us nothing about you beyond aggregate download figures. Their own privacy policies cover that transaction: Apple's and Google's.
The game declares "Data Not Collected" in its App Store privacy label, and "No data collected" and "No data shared with third parties" in its Google Play Data safety section. This page is the long version of the same fact.
If you have chosen to share analytics with app developers in your device settings, Apple or Google may show us anonymous, aggregated crash and usage figures. Those come from your device's operating system, not from the game, and you can turn them off in the device's privacy settings.
Purchases
Munch Monsters is free to download, and Munch's 20 levels are free to play. The only extra is the optional Monster Pack, a one-off purchase made through the App Store or Google Play, behind a grown-ups-only question. Apple or Google processes the payment: we never see payment or personal details. The game checks on the device which extras are unlocked, and that check never reaches us.
Children's privacy
Munch Monsters is designed for children and is built to comply with children's privacy law, including COPPA in the United States and the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020, along with Apple's rules for the Kids category and Google Play's Families policy, the simplest way possible: by collecting no data at all. There is no data to request, correct or delete — but if you have any question or concern as a parent or guardian, we want to hear it.
If this policy changes
If a future update ever changes any of the above — for example, if we one day add an opt-in feature that needs the network — this page, the App Store privacy label and the Google Play Data safety section will be updated first, before the feature ships.
