One Football Life is a football career game. Your careers are saved on your device, there is no account to create, and the game shows no ads. It does send usage statistics, which are not linked to your name or email address, and it makes a few network requests. This policy explains exactly what they contain.
Information we collect
The game never asks for your name, email address, phone number or contacts, and there is no account and nothing to sign in to. Your careers and your settings are saved in a database on your device; the game does not upload that database to any server.
What does leave your device is usage statistics sent to an analytics service, and a few requests to our servers. Both are described below.
The game does not ask for access to your microphone, camera, location, contacts or photos. It has no chat and no user-generated content.
Analytics
To understand how the game is used, it sends usage statistics to PostHog, an analytics service, on PostHog's servers in the European Union (eu.i.posthog.com). They contain:
- app events: the game was installed, updated, opened, or sent to the background;
- screen views: which screens of the game are opened;
- game events: a career was created, a season or a career ended, a challenge was completed, with details of that fictional career such as the position, nationality and club chosen, and results such as matches, goals and trophies. The name you give your player is never sent;
- purchase events: an expansion's offer was shown, and a purchase was started, completed or cancelled, with the expansion concerned, its price and its currency;
- a random identifier generated on your device, which tells one installation from another;
- your device model, its operating system version, the game's version, and your language and region settings.
PostHog also receives your device's IP address and uses it to work out an approximate location (country and city).
These statistics contain no name, email address or contact details. The game currently has no setting to turn them off.
No ads, no tracking
The game shows no ads. It does not track you across other companies' apps or websites and does not use your device's advertising identifier (IDFA), so it never shows Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt.
Purchases and ratings
The game offers two optional expansions, Legacy and Relationships, each a one-time purchase. Purchases are handled by Apple's App Store: payment is processed by Apple, and we never receive your payment details.
iOS may also show its standard prompt asking you to rate the game. That prompt belongs to the App Store and sends nothing to us.
Our servers
The game contacts servers of ours hosted on Cloudflare: it downloads the current list of challenges from api.footlife.sbouchot.com, sending the game's version number with the request, and older versions of the game also check for an app update. Cloudflare handles these connections and necessarily sees the IP address each request comes from.
Third-party services
- PostHog — usage statistics, hosted in the European Union
- Apple App Store — purchases, payments and the rating prompt
- Cloudflare — hosting for our servers and this website
Your rights and choices
The publisher is based in France, so the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies. You can ask for access to the personal data described here, ask for it to be corrected or erased, and object to its use or ask for it to be restricted, by writing to the address below. You can also lodge a complaint with a data protection authority; in France that is the CNIL.
Deleting the app removes all locally stored game data, and nothing more is sent once it is deleted.
