Star Pet Task Island (the “App”) is a family task and growth-motivation app designed for parents and children to use together. We respect the privacy of every family member, especially children. This policy explains what information the App processes, why it is processed, how it is stored, and how you can manage or delete it.
At a glance: The App does not require a developer account, display third-party ads, track users across apps, or include third-party advertising or behavioral analytics SDKs. App data is primarily stored on your device and, when iCloud is available, synced using Apple CloudKit.
1. Information We Process
To provide task management, rewards, and growth records, the App processes information that a parent or device user chooses to enter or creates through use of the App:
- Family and child profile data: family name, child nickname, selected avatar, and related identifiers.
- Task and progress data: task content, completion history, star balance, reward history, gift redemptions, pets, equipment, battles, and home progress.
- Gift images: only when a parent takes or selects an image to use as a gift cover.
- App settings: sync status, interface preferences, and local configuration needed for the App to work.
- Parent PIN: used to protect parent features. Only a salted hash used for verification is stored locally on the device. The readable PIN is not stored and the PIN is not synced to iCloud.
- Purchase entitlement information: product identifiers, subscription or lifetime purchase status, active entitlements, and restore results obtained and verified through Apple StoreKit, used to determine whether unlimited tasks are unlocked.
We do not require real names, email addresses, phone numbers, precise location, or contacts. Card details, payment account information, and complete payment transaction details are processed by Apple; we do not directly receive or store this payment information.
2. Camera and Photo Access
The App accesses the camera or system photo picker only after a parent chooses to add an image to a gift. The selected image is used only for the gift content you create. You can change camera or photo permissions at any time in iOS Settings. Denying access does not affect features that do not require an image.
3. Local Storage and iCloud Sync
App data is first stored locally on the device. By default, when the device is signed in to and has iCloud available, the App uses Apple CloudKit to upload family profiles, task records, progress data, and gift images to your private iCloud database so the information can sync across devices signed in to the same Apple Account. If iCloud is unavailable, the App falls back to local-only storage on the current device.
iCloud is provided by Apple, and Apple’s handling of information is governed by its privacy policy and service terms. Apart from processing by Apple to provide iCloud, we do not sell, rent, or disclose this data to advertisers, data brokers, or other third parties.
4. In-App Purchases and Subscriptions
The App offers the following optional purchases to remove the free version’s limit of three tasks:
- Unlimited Tasks Monthly: an auto-renewable monthly subscription that continues until canceled through the user’s Apple Account.
- Unlimited Tasks Lifetime: a one-time, non-consumable purchase that permanently unlocks unlimited tasks.
Pricing, currency, payment, renewal, refunds, and transaction records are handled by the Apple App Store. The App uses StoreKit to read Apple-verified current entitlements for unlocking features, confirming subscription status, and restoring purchases. We do not receive card numbers, payment account details, or complete payment information. A parent authentication step is required before a purchase is initiated.
The monthly subscription renews automatically unless canceled through the user’s Apple Account at least 24 hours before the end of the current subscription period. Users can view or cancel it in App Store subscription management and can use “Restore Purchases” in the App to restore eligible subscriptions or lifetime purchases associated with the same Apple Account.
5. How Information Is Used
The information described above is used only to:
- create and manage family tasks, rewards, gifts, and progress;
- show child-specific content on the device and protect parent actions with a parent PIN;
- sync and restore App data when iCloud is available; and
- verify, provide, and restore purchased unlimited-task entitlements; and
- respond to technical support requests that you choose to send.
6. Advertising, Analytics, and Tracking
The App does not display third-party advertising, use third-party advertising, marketing, profiling, or cross-app tracking tools, or sell personal information. The current version does not include third-party crash reporting or behavioral analytics SDKs.
7. Children’s Privacy
The App may be used by children under parental supervision. Child profiles and activity records should be created and managed by a parent or guardian. We do not require children to register an account, serve ads based on children’s data, or ask children for contact information. Parent authentication is required before an in-app purchase is initiated. A parent or guardian can delete related data as described in Section 8.
8. Retention, Deletion, and Permission Choices
Family and task data remains on the device and in your iCloud until you delete content in the App, remove the App and its local data, or delete the App’s data from iCloud. Purchase and subscription transaction records are retained and managed by Apple under its policies; deleting the App does not automatically cancel an active subscription or delete Apple’s transaction records. Because the App has no developer-operated account system, we cannot remotely identify or directly delete content in your private iCloud database.
- You can edit or delete tasks, rewards, gifts, and other content in the App.
- You can revoke camera or photo access in iOS Settings.
- You can manage or delete the App’s iCloud data through your Apple Account’s iCloud storage settings.
- You can view or cancel the monthly subscription through Apple Account subscription management. After cancellation, access generally continues through the end of the current paid period.
- To remove all local data from the current device, delete the App. Before reinstalling, also check whether App data remains in iCloud.
9. Data Security
We use storage protections provided by the operating system, hashed parent PIN verification, and Apple CloudKit security features to reduce the risk of unauthorized access. No storage or transmission method is completely secure, so please protect your device, Apple Account, and parent PIN.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy when App features, data practices, or applicable requirements change. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Where appropriate, material changes may also be explained in the App.
