Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 2026
The short version: Whisker Arcade collects nothing. There are no accounts, no analytics, no ads, no in-app purchases, no third-party code, and the app never makes a network request. Your cat's stats, streaks, and unlocks are stored on your device and stay there.
Data We Collect
None. codfishworks does not collect, store, receive, or share any information about you, your device, or your cat. Whisker Arcade has no accounts and no sign-in, runs no analytics or telemetry, and shows no ads. Its App Store privacy label is Data Not Collected.
Local Data Storage
Whisker Arcade saves a small amount of data on your device using UserDefaults, the standard iOS store for app settings:
- Play stats - catches, play time, and weekly activity
- Streaks - how many days in a row your cat has played
- Unlocks - the small rewards earned as catches add up
- Settings - your preferences from the owner menu
This data never leaves your device. It is not backed up to any server run by codfishworks, and no one else can read it. Deleting the app deletes all of it.
Network Access
Whisker Arcade makes no network requests at all. The daily featured game is worked out on your device from the calendar date, which is why everyone sees the same pick without anything being downloaded. The app works exactly the same with no internet connection.
Third-Party Services
There are none. Whisker Arcade contains no third-party SDKs, no analytics libraries, no advertising code, and no crash reporting. Everything it does is built on Apple's own system frameworks.
Permissions
Whisker Arcade asks for no permissions at all. It does not ask for and cannot access your camera, microphone, contacts, photos, location, health data, notifications, or files.
In-App Purchases and Ads
Whisker Arcade has neither. There is nothing to buy inside the app and no advertising of any kind, so no payment or advertising data is ever handled.
Children's Privacy
Whisker Arcade is suitable for all ages (the main player is a cat). Because it collects no data at all, shows no ads, and has no purchases or chat, there is nothing for a child - or a cat - to share with us or with anyone else.
Your Rights
Privacy laws such as the GDPR and CCPA give you rights over personal data a company holds about you. codfishworks holds no personal data about Whisker Arcade users, so there is nothing for us to look up, correct, export, or delete. To remove the data on your device, delete the app.
