The short version. Tarry does not collect, store, or share any personal information. Your games, statistics and settings live only on your device. There is no account to create, no analytics, and no server of ours for your data to reach. The free version shows a banner ad from Google AdMob; you can remove it with a one-time purchase. We never see your payment details.

1. Who We Are

Tarry is developed and published by Jamie Newman ("we", "us", "our"). If you have any questions about this policy, contact us at contact@jamie-newman.com.

2. Information We Do Not Collect

We do not operate any servers, databases, or back-end services of our own, and Tarry contains no analytics or crash-reporting SDK. We do not collect:

3. Data Stored on Your Device

Tarry stores the following in a single file on your device:

None of this is transmitted to us or to any third party. It is included in your device's own backups if you use them (iCloud Backup or a backup to a computer), which Apple handles.

Google's consent tool also stores your advertising consent choices on your device, so that you are not asked again on every launch (see section 5).

4. Sharing a Deal

Every deal has a number, and the Stats screen lets you share it - for example, "Klondike deal #4821 in Tarry" - through the iOS share sheet. That text is all that is shared, and only when you choose to share it, to whoever you choose. Nothing about your statistics or your device is attached.

5. Advertising and the Advertising Identifier (IDFA)

The free version of Tarry shows a single banner advertisement served by Google AdMob, in the App Store storefronts where that network operates.

Users in the European Economic Area (EEA), the UK and other regions where the law requires it first see a consent form, presented through Google's User Messaging Platform, before any advertising data is processed. You can change or withdraw your choices at any time from Settings → Privacy Choices in the app.

On iOS, Apple's App Tracking Transparency (ATT) prompt is shown before the advertising identifier can be accessed. Where the consent form applies, the prompt is shown only if you agreed to information being stored on your device, so you are never asked the same question twice. Your choices:

You can change this decision at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking on your device.

Ads in Tarry are limited to content rated PG (parental guidance) or below; mature content is never requested. To show and measure ads, Google's software may collect information such as your device's advertising identifier, approximate location derived from your IP address, how you interact with an ad, and diagnostic and performance data. Google's practices are described in the Google Privacy Policy and in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

Tarry works fully whatever you choose. Declining consent or tracking changes only which ads you see, or whether you see one.

6. Removing Ads

You can remove the banner permanently with the Remove Ads in-app purchase. This is a one-time, non-consumable purchase processed entirely by Apple. We never see or store your payment information - we only learn whether the purchase is active on your Apple Account, which is what hides the banner. Once it is, the app requests no further ads.

The purchase is not offered in storefronts where ads are not served, since there would be nothing to remove. If you have already bought it, it applies on every device signed in to the same Apple Account, and Restore Purchases in Settings re-checks it with Apple at any time.

7. Children's Privacy

Tarry is a card game for a general audience and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children - the app has no accounts and asks for no personal details. If you believe a child has been shown personalised ads, decline the tracking prompt or turn tracking off in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking, or contact us and we will help.

8. Data Retention and Deletion

Everything Tarry stores stays on your device until you remove it:

9. Your Rights and Choices

Because we hold none of your personal data on servers of our own, there is no personal data for us to provide, correct, or erase on your behalf. Your choices are in your hands:

If you are in the EEA or UK and have questions about your rights under the GDPR, or you are a California resident with questions about your rights under the CCPA, contact us at the address below. We will respond within 30 days.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time, typically when the app gains a feature that touches data. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page, and material changes will be noted in the app's release notes.
