Privacy Policy — Couch Caucus

The Heaps Goods Trading Pty Ltd • Effective Date: November 2026

1. Overview

Couch Caucus is a pass-and-play trivia party game. We respect user privacy: the app does not require account registration, email sign-ups, or personal identity verification to play.

2. Data Collection & Local Storage

Match progress, session scores, player configurations, and deliberation timer preferences are stored locally on your device via sandbox storage (localStorage). This data is strictly local and is never uploaded to private user tracking profiles.

3. Third-Party Advertising

The free Party Edition uses Google AdMob to serve relevant banner and interstitial ads. AdMob may process device identifiers and diagnostic usage metrics in compliance with Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework. Users who upgrade to Couch Caucus Pro or Lifetime Pass disable all third-party advertising SDK calls entirely.

4. In-App Purchases

Transactions for Couch Caucus Pro (Monthly), Lifetime Pass, and Zero-Footprint Mode are processed exclusively through Apple StoreKit. We do not receive, process, or store financial credentials or billing details.

5. Trivia Data Proxy

Real-time trivia questions are pulled via encrypted HTTPS requests to our serverless proxy. These queries contain category and difficulty parameters only; no device-identifying metrics are attached to trivia requests.
