Privacy Policy
Empire: Party Game Host · Effective November 5, 2026
The Short Version
Empire does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. The secret names you type are never saved, and they never leave your device.
Secret Names
The names players type during a game are kept only in the app's memory while that game is running. They are not written to storage, not backed up, and not sent anywhere. Ending a game, starting a new one, or closing the app forgets them.
Settings
Your game options (how many readings, decoy names, the theme, voice speed and whether names are shown while read) are stored locally on your device so they are ready for the next game. There are no user accounts and no sign-up.
Reading Aloud
Names are spoken with the text-to-speech voices built into iOS, on your device. No audio or text is sent to a speech service. Empire does not use the microphone.
No Ads, No Purchases
Empire is free. It shows no ads, contains no advertising SDKs, and has no in-app purchases.
Analytics & Tracking
Empire contains no analytics frameworks, no tracking pixels, and no telemetry of any kind. We do not use any third-party services that collect data.
Network Usage
Empire makes no network requests and works entirely offline. The only network activity associated with the app is Apple's App Store, for downloads and updates.
Children's Privacy
Empire is a party game for families and friends. It does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children under the age of 13.
Changes to This Policy
If this policy changes, we will update this page with the new effective date. Since Empire collects no data, meaningful changes are unlikely.
