PRIVACY POLICY
Last updated: September 2026
Introduction
ClawCraze is a free iOS arcade game published by Think New Creative Solutions LLC ("ClawCraze," "we," "our," or "us"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use ClawCraze, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have.
By downloading or using ClawCraze, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.
Information We Collect
We collect the following categories of information:
Account Information — When you sign in with Google or Apple, we receive your email address, display name, and a unique identifier from the sign-in provider. We use this to create and identify your account.
Gameplay & Progress Data — Your collection progress, prizes caught, machine history, token balance, turn activity, and in-app achievements are stored so your progress is preserved across sessions and devices.
Purchase Records — When you purchase token packs through Apple In-App Purchase, Apple processes the payment and we receive a transaction receipt. We record the package purchased, token amount, and timestamp. We do not receive, store, or process your payment card information.
Usage & Device Analytics — We collect gameplay events (machine entered, claw dropped, prize caught), session start/end times, and basic device information (device model, OS version, app version). This helps us understand how the app is used and improve it.
Support Communications — If you contact us at support@clawcraze.app, we retain the content of that communication to respond to you and to improve our support.
Live Room Activity — In shared machine rooms, your username, avatar, and queue activity are visible to other players in the same room in real time. See the "Live/Multiplayer Visibility" section below.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
• Operate, maintain, and improve ClawCraze
• Create and manage your account
• Verify in-app purchases and credit your token balance
• Record and display your prize collection and progress
• Operate live shared machine rooms
• Send transactional communications (account confirmation, purchase receipts) via Resend
• Detect and prevent fraud, cheating, or abuse
• Analyze usage patterns to fix bugs and improve features
• Respond to your support requests
• Comply with applicable laws and legal obligations
We do not use your information for targeted advertising, nor do we sell your personal data to any third party.
In-App Purchases
Token packs are purchased through Apple In-App Purchase. All payment processing is handled exclusively by Apple. We do not receive, store, or have access to your payment card or billing details.
Token credits have no cash value and are non-transferable. Purchased tokens are non-refundable except as required by applicable law or Apple's refund policy. You may submit refund requests directly to Apple via reportaproblem.apple.com.
We reserve the right to modify token pricing, package contents, and availability at any time with reasonable notice.
Live / Multiplayer Visibility
ClawCraze features shared live machine rooms in which multiple players can observe the same game round. When you are active in a machine room, the following information is visible to other players in that room:
• Your in-app username and avatar
• Your position in the queue and turn status
• Your reactions (if you send them)
This visibility is core to the live arcade experience. Please choose a username you are comfortable displaying publicly within the app.
We do not transmit your email address or real name to other players.
Data Retention & Deletion
We retain your account data and gameplay records for as long as your account is active. If you request deletion, we will delete or anonymize your account data within 30 days, except where we are required by law to retain certain records (such as purchase transaction records, which we may retain for up to 7 years for accounting and legal purposes).
To request deletion of your account and associated data, email us at support@clawcraze.app with the subject line "Account Deletion Request." Please include the email address associated with your account.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to:
• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Correct inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your data
• Object to or restrict certain processing
• Data portability (receive a copy of your data in a machine-readable format)
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@clawcraze.app. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law (typically 30 days). We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.
