Mindfly ("we", "our", or "the app") is a mobile game developed by Graham Cohen. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.
Mindfly does not collect, store, or transmit any personally identifiable data.
Specifically:
The app stores the following data locally on your device only:
This data never leaves your device and is not accessible to us or any third party.
Mindfly uses:
Mindfly uses Apple's TrueDepth camera and ARKit framework for gameplay and optional personalization features. Here is exactly what is collected and how it is used:
During gameplay, the app reads head orientation (yaw and pitch) and two facial expression values (jaw open and cheek puff) to move the player character and trigger in-game abilities. This numerical tracking data is:
If you choose to record gameplay with the face overlay feature enabled, camera frames from the TrueDepth session are temporarily stored in device memory and composited into a video file saved locally on your device. This video is never uploaded or shared automatically — it is only shared if you explicitly choose to do so using the iOS share sheet. You may disable the face overlay at any time by toggling the face icon in the recording controls, which results in screen-only recording where your face does not appear in the saved video.
You may optionally capture a photo of your face from the TrueDepth camera session to use as a custom face on your in-game character. This photo is processed on-device (background removal) and saved locally in the app's storage on your device. Saved face photos are never transmitted to any server or third party. You can view and permanently delete any saved face at any time from the Saved Faces gallery within the app.
No facial maps, meshes, or biometric identification data are collected or retained at any time by any feature of the app.
Mindfly displays advertisements through Google AdMob. Google may collect certain data for ad personalization and analytics as described in Google's Privacy Policy. You can learn more about Google's advertising practices and opt-out options at Google Ad Settings.
Mindfly uses Google Analytics for Firebase to understand general app usage patterns, such as sessions, screen views, and in-app purchase activity. This service collects an anonymous app instance identifier (not linked to your identity), general usage data, and purchase event data (product and price, not linked to your identity). No personally identifiable information is collected. Google Analytics does not use Apple's Location Services; it derives approximate location from masked IP addresses only. You can learn more in Firebase's Privacy and Security documentation.
If you choose to use Game Center for leaderboards, your Game Center data is handled according to Apple's Privacy Policy.
In-app purchases are processed by Apple and are subject to Apple's Privacy Policy.
Mindfly does not knowingly collect any personal information from children. The game is suitable for all ages.
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date above.
