Ripple CatchPrivacy policy
This policy covers the Ripple Catch app, purchase verification API, this website, and email support provided by ROWAN INTERACTIVE / RowanZone.
Game information on your device
Your collection, catches, points, owned/equipped tackle, and sound/language settings are stored on your device. These play records are not uploaded to our server. There is no app account or cloud-save feature. Operating-system backups depend on Apple, Google, and your device settings.
Information used to verify purchases
When purchasing, restoring, or checking purchase status, the app sends store-issued proof, the product identifier, and store type to our server over encrypted HTTPS. The server checks the purchase with the relevant store and saves a hashed reference, store, test/production environment, validity, purchase time, and last verification time. This supports entitlement verification, restoration, duplicate prevention, and cancellation/refund checks. A hashed reference is not treated as fully anonymous.
Payment information we do not store
Original receipts and purchase tokens are processed for verification but are not saved in the purchase database or our application server logs. We do not receive or store card numbers or payment-account passwords. Apple App Store or Google Play processes the payment under its own privacy policy.
Android billing-library diagnostics
On Android, the Google Play Billing library can send Google billing operation results and errors, app and Android versions, and a temporary billing-client identifier. This can occur when billing connects even if you do not buy anything, and supports the operation and diagnosis of the billing service. Google handles this information under its privacy policy. We do not include your fishing collection or gameplay records in these diagnostics.
Retention and deletion
Local records remain until you clear app data or uninstall the app. Purchase verification records are retained as needed to verify and restore the permanent entitlement and to address misuse or disputes. When those purposes end, records are deleted or de-identified. Where retention is legally required, records are kept for the required period and purpose. Contact the email below to request deletion or information about server records. Store purchase records and refunds are managed separately by the relevant store.
Download statistics and this website
Administrators view app-level aggregated download reports supplied by Apple and Google. The app has no behavioral analytics or advertising SDK and does not use data for advertising tracking. This website has no analytics tools, advertising, or tracking cookies. IP addresses, request times, and paths may be processed temporarily or appear in server access or error logs for security and troubleshooting, and are handled only as needed for those purposes.
Sharing and support you choose
Catch and aquarium images are passed to the device sharing feature you select. Your chosen sharing service applies its own policies. Support emails include your sender address, message, and attachments; we use them to reply and resolve the issue, and delete them when no longer needed or upon a deletion request unless legal retention is necessary.
Protection and contact
Server connections use HTTPS, and administrative purchase records require authentication. You can play without signing up or providing a name, date of birth, or contact details. For privacy access, correction, deletion requests, or questions, contact info@rowanzone.co.kr. We update this page and its effective date when our practices change.
