RunMyGame Privacy Policy
RunMyGame keeps score for your board and card games. Playing requires no account and no connection: your games, your players and your settings stay on your device.
1. In short
None of your game data leaves your phone. Apart from the technical reports you explicitly choose to send, all we receive are the usage events described in section 4: they tell us which games are being played — never by whom, never with whom, never precisely where.
2. Who is responsible for this data
Data controller: Gaëtan Gouhier, sole trader (entrepreneur individuel), SIREN 820549798, SIRET 82054979800040, EU VAT number FR90820549798, 1469 rue de Las Sorbes, 34070 Montpellier, France. Trading name: GGO Labs.
Contact: contact@ggolabs.com. There is no data protection officer: the organisation is not required to appoint one.
3. What stays on your device
Everything you enter: your games and how they unfolded, the names and avatars of the players you save, your settings, your history and your personal statistics. This data is stored in a local database, protected by your operating system's encryption.
It is never sent to us and we have no way of accessing it. Uninstalling the app deletes it permanently.
4. Usage events
To know which games deserve to be added or improved, the app sends us pseudonymous usage events. They are not statistics yet: aggregation happens on our side, after they arrive. They contain none of your game content, none of your player names, and none of your scores.
What an event contains
| Data | Example | Precision |
|---|---|---|
| Installation identifier | a randomly drawn number | see below |
| Event type | "game finished" | eight types in total |
| Game and player count | Belote, 4 players | never player names |
| App version, language | 1.0.0, French | — |
| Platform and device | Android 16, phone | major version only, two device categories |
| Country | France | derived from the IP address on arrival; never the city |
| Date | 6 September 2026 | the stored event holds the day only, not the time |
The installation identifier
It is drawn at random by the app, kept on your device, and its value is sent to us with every event — that is what lets us know ten games came from the same installation. This is precisely why this data is pseudonymous and not anonymous.
What we undertake never to do with it:
- It is never linked to an account, to your identity, or to an email address.
- It is never your device's advertising identifier, nor an identifier shared with another app.
- It is used for this measurement only: no targeting, no profiling, no customer support.
- It is renewed after 13 months, and you can reset it whenever you like.
It counts installations, not people. Two phones in a household are two installations; two players on the same device are one. We do not know how many people use RunMyGame, and we do not try to find out.
No free text is ever sent automatically
When a catalogue search returns nothing, we receive the bare count — not the word you typed. The search term reaches us only if you tap "Suggest this game" yourself.
How to opt out
In the settings, the Privacy section lets you turn usage measurement off, reset your identifier, and delete events already sent. Events are sent in batches, at most once a day, and wait for a network connection: the app remains fully usable offline.
5. Crash reports
If the app closes unexpectedly, an anonymised technical report may be sent to us so we can fix the defect. It contains no data from your games. It is only sent with your agreement, which we ask for the first time and which you can withdraw at any point in the settings.
6. Processing summary
| Purpose | Legal basis | Retention | Recipients |
|---|---|---|---|
| Usage measurement: how often games and features are used | Legitimate interest (art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) — improving and developing the app. You may object at any time from the settings. | Identifier 13 months, events 25 months | Us only, and Microsoft Azure as our hosting processor |
| Crash reports and performance measurements | Your consent (art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), withdrawable | 12 months | Us only, and our hosting processor |
| Replying to a message sent to our contact address | Legitimate interest — answering you | For the duration of the exchange, then 12 months | Us only |
No data is sold, rented, or passed on for advertising purposes. No third-party analytics SDK is built into the app.
7. Your rights
You have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection. Here, honestly, is what we can do about each.
- While your device holds the current identifier, the app can request deletion of the events attached to it. That is what the "delete my statistics" button does.
- After that identifier is renewed, reset or lost, nothing can be traced back to you. We keep no mapping table between successive identifiers: keeping one so we could answer a request would create exactly the link this design avoids.
- Your game data is not concerned: it never left your device, and you delete it by uninstalling the app.
We therefore know no civil identity associated with this data. This is not a way of avoiding our obligations: it is a direct consequence of how the service is built, and the GDPR does not require us to collect additional data for the sole purpose of being able to identify you.
To exercise a right or ask a question: contact@ggolabs.com. If our answer does not satisfy you, you may lodge a complaint with the French supervisory authority, the CNIL, or with your own national authority.
8. Target audience and minors
RunMyGame is a general-purpose utility intended for adults. It is not designed, presented or marketed to children or teenagers. A minor may nevertheless use it occasionally around a table. The app does not ask for their date of birth or seek to determine their age. Advertising is not active in the current version.
9. Hosting
The endpoint that records events, and their storage, are deployed in France on Microsoft Azure (France Central region). This website itself is served by Azure Static Web Apps, whose distribution is worldwide.
Your device's IP address is used on arrival to derive a country, and it is not recorded in the usage measurement database. Like any online service, our host keeps its own technical logs with their own lifecycle; we do not use them for statistics.
10. The account, once it exists
An Apple or Google account will become optional later, to find your games again on another device. It will be an entirely separate system from usage measurement: two distinct stores, two distinct deletion mechanisms. Creating an account will never link usage events to your identity, retroactively or otherwise.
11. What does not exist yet
The following features are planned but not active in the version you are using: user account and synchronisation, live game sharing, advertising, paid offering. This policy will be updated before they are switched on, and no additional data is collected until then. If personalised advertising is offered later, it will only be enabled in regions where consent is required after an explicit, withdrawable choice; merely using the app will not constitute consent.
12. Changes
Any change to this policy will be published on this page, with its date. Changes that widen the collection will be announced in the app.
