OSReferee Privacy Policy

Effective date: May 14, 2026

OSReferee is designed as a local-first referee and campaign tool. This policy explains what data the app handles, where that data is stored, and what is shared with the developer.

Short version: OSReferee does not include third-party advertising SDKs, analytics SDKs, or cross-app tracking. Campaign data stays on your device unless you choose to export it, import it, share it, or use iCloud backup features.

Data You Create In The App

OSReferee lets you create and edit campaign records, including regions, adventures, hexes, settlements, encounters, factions, religions, player characters, retainers, NPCs, treasures, notes, combat state, and related images or portraits you choose to add.

This data is stored locally on your device in the app's storage. You can create backup files and import backup files through the app's document features.

Photos And Images

If you choose artwork or portraits through the system photo picker, OSReferee receives the image you selected. The app does not receive access to your full photo library. Selected images may be stored with your campaign data and included in backups or iCloud backups if you use those features.

Imports, Exports, And Backups

OSReferee can export campaign backup files and can import supported OSReferee and OSCharacter files. Exported files are created only when you request them or when you enable app backup behavior. When you share, move, or store an exported file, the selected destination controls what happens to that file after it leaves OSReferee.

iCloud Backup

OSReferee includes optional iCloud backup and restore controls. If you use iCloud backup, campaign backup data is stored in the app's iCloud container through Apple's iCloud services. This data is associated with your Apple ID through Apple and is not operated through a developer-run server.

You can turn off automatic iCloud backup in app settings. You can also manage iCloud app data through Apple's iCloud settings.

Purchases

OSReferee Premium is handled through Apple's StoreKit and App Store purchase systems. Apple processes purchases, refunds, and payment information. OSReferee receives purchase entitlement information needed to unlock Premium features, but the developer does not receive your payment card details from the app.

Data Collected By The Developer

Analytics: OSReferee does not include a developer analytics SDK.
Advertising: OSReferee does not include ads or advertising SDKs.
Tracking: OSReferee does not track you across apps or websites owned by other companies.
Developer servers: OSReferee does not send campaign data to a developer-operated server in the current app design.

Apple And System Services

Apple may process data through App Store purchases, iCloud, crash reporting, TestFlight, or other Apple services according to Apple's own policies and your device settings.

Children's Privacy

OSReferee is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from children through developer-operated services. Because the app stores user-created content locally and through optional iCloud backup, parents or guardians should manage device, App Store, and iCloud settings for younger users.

Your Choices

Do not use iCloud backup if you want campaign data to remain only on the device.
Delete campaigns and campaign objects inside the app when you no longer want them stored locally.
Delete exported backup files from Files, Mail, Messages, cloud storage, or any destination where you shared them.
Manage iCloud app data and backups in Apple ID and iCloud settings.
