Cannonwake Privacy Policy
Effective as of November 14, 2026.
David Tompkins ("we", "us" or "our") provides Cannonwake, an iPhone game. This Privacy Policy describes how David Tompkins processes personal information that we collect through our digital or online properties or services that link to this Privacy Policy, including our website, mobile application and support communications (collectively, the "Service").
Cannonwake and this website
Cannonwake stores gameplay progress and preferences on your device. The app does not send that information to us. It has no Cannonwake account, developer-operated game server, advertising, tracking, analytics or third-party crash-reporting SDK.
The optional Full Game purchase is processed by Apple through the App Store and StoreKit. The app checks Apple-provided transaction and entitlement information on your device. We do not receive your payment-card number or Apple Account password. Apple may process purchase, account, diagnostic and backup information under its own privacy practices and your settings. See Apple's Privacy Policy.
This website uses no cookies, JavaScript, analytics or tracking tools. Its web-server access and error logs are disabled. Network and hosting infrastructure still process information needed to receive and answer web requests, such as your IP address.
We do not sell your personal information or use it for targeted advertising.
Personal information we collect
Information you provide to us. Personal information you may provide to us through the Service or otherwise includes:
- Contact data, such as your first and last name and email address.
- Communications data based on our exchanges with you, including when you contact us through the Service or otherwise.
If you email us for support, this includes the message and any attachments you choose to send. The app does not automatically send your saved game with a support request.
How we use your personal information
We may use your personal information for the following purposes or as otherwise described at the time of collection:
Service delivery and operations. We may use your personal information to provide the Service, provide support for the Service, and respond to your requests, questions and feedback.
Compliance and protection. We may use your personal information to:
- comply with applicable laws, lawful requests, and legal process, such as to respond to subpoenas, investigations or requests from government authorities;
- protect our, your or others' rights, privacy, safety or property, including by making and defending legal claims;
- enforce the terms and conditions that govern the Service; and
- prevent, identify, investigate and deter fraudulent, harmful, unauthorized, unethical or illegal activity, including cyberattacks and identity theft.
Retention
We generally retain personal information to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements, establishing or defending legal claims, or for fraud prevention purposes. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we may consider factors such as the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
When we no longer require the personal information we have collected about you, we may either delete it, anonymize it, or isolate it from further processing.
We do not hold a server copy of your Cannonwake progress and cannot remotely delete it. Apple controls its purchase records and any backups provided through Apple services.
How we share your personal information
We may share your personal information with the following parties:
- Service providers. Third parties that provide services on our behalf or help us operate the Service or our business, such as hosting, information technology, customer support and email delivery. These include DigitalOcean for website hosting and Namecheap and Google for support-email forwarding and delivery.
- Professional advisors. Professional advisors, such as lawyers, auditors, bankers and insurers, in the course of the professional services that they render to us.
- Authorities and others. Law enforcement, government authorities, and private parties, as we believe in good faith to be necessary or appropriate for the Compliance and protection purposes described above.
- Third parties designated by you. We may share your personal information with third parties where you have instructed us or provided your consent to do so.
