Privacy Policy

Who we are

Retro LLC (“Retro,” “we,” or “us”) operates Magical Trivia, an unofficial trivia app for a general audience aged 13 and older. This policy explains information handling in the current free version, including TestFlight testing. Contact support@retro.llc for privacy questions.

Information we use

• Account information: an account identifier and credentials needed to authenticate and associate progress with your account. Sign in with Apple provides an app-specific identifier and may provide a name or email address according to your authorization. We do not receive your Apple Account password. Sign-in codes or tokens may also be used securely to maintain or revoke your app connection, including during account deletion. Guest play creates an account without asking for a name or email address.
• Profiles and groups: your display name and flair, group names and descriptions, membership and join requests, roles and preferences.
• Gameplay: question and challenge identifiers, accepted answers, outcomes, scores, guess counts, completion information, and records needed to save, synchronize and recover play. Typed answers are sent to our service for checking. The gameplay database retains the result and a request fingerprint rather than a verbatim history of incorrect typed answers. Drafts and answers awaiting synchronization may remain on your device.
• Question suggestions: the question, answer, explanation, category and source information you submit. Suggestions are private to our review team until editorial approval; they are not automatically published. Unsubmitted drafts remain on your device.
• Safety reports and blocks: the people you block, reports you submit, relevant profile or group content captured with a report, and moderation decisions. We use these records to enforce blocks, investigate abuse and act on reports. They are not a public report feed, and we do not show your reporter identity to the reported player.
• Technical information: hosting and authentication providers process IP addresses, request details, timestamps and error information needed to deliver and protect the service.

If you contact us, we receive your email address and the information you send, including any screenshots or attachments. We use it to answer your request, troubleshoot problems and maintain necessary support records. Please avoid sending passwords, payment-card details or unnecessary sensitive information.

Why we use it

We use information to provide and check trivia, save progress, operate groups, review question suggestions, provide support, prevent abuse, diagnose errors and maintain the service. We do not sell personal information or use it for targeted advertising.

The current version has no advertising SDK, third-party behavioral analytics SDK, subscription or in-app purchase. We do not track you across other companies’ apps or websites for advertising or send your answers to a third-party generative-AI service for grading. If these practices change, we will update our disclosures and provide any required choices before introducing them.

Providers and sharing

Supabase provides authentication, database, hosting and content delivery. Apple provides Sign in with Apple and App Store distribution. These services process information necessary for their functions. See Supabase’s privacy information and Apple’s privacy information.

When guest security verification is required, Cloudflare Turnstile processes browser, device and network signals (including IP address) to help distinguish legitimate use from automated abuse. The verification web view may use cookies or browser storage needed for the challenge. We do not put your Magical Trivia account identifier, trivia answers or sign-in session into the verification page. It is a security service, not an advertising feature. See Cloudflare’s Turnstile Privacy Addendum. Verification is used only when this feature is enabled.

Members of your groups can see the display names, flair, membership and scores made available by the game’s score-visibility rules. Do not put private information in a display name or group description. We do not access your address book.

When you share results, the system share sheet sends the information to the people or services you choose. The result card contains the result and question categories or movie titles, not question wording. Approved trivia suggestions may be published as app content; the published trivia can remain after deletion of its contributor’s private account and submission record.

We may disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect people, prevent fraud or abuse, or secure the service. If the service changes ownership, personal information may transfer with it subject to applicable law and notice requirements.

Your device, widgets and reminders

Settings, cached questions, progress and drafts remain on your device to support responsive and interrupted or offline play. Sign-in sessions use Apple’s Keychain. The widget shares public question previews with the app; it does not receive your sign-in session or private scores.

Daily reminders are scheduled on your device at the time you choose. Manage them in the app or iOS Settings. Remote group notifications are unavailable in this version. Playing trivia does not require location, contacts, camera or microphone permission.

Retention and account deletion

We retain your account and saved gameplay while needed to provide the account and its history. To delete them, open Profile → Account & sign-in → Delete account. This removes the account and associated private profile, gameplay, membership and submitted-question records from the active app database. If you are a group’s only owner and other members remain, transfer ownership or delete the group first. A transferred group may remain for its members. Reports submitted by other people may retain the reported content and related moderation decisions after a reported account is deleted, where needed to investigate abuse, protect the service or meet legal obligations; they are restricted to authorized review staff.

Signing out or uninstalling is not account deletion. Uninstalling does not delete your server account and may leave a credential in Keychain. Guest progress may become inaccessible if you lose the guest session before linking an Apple account. If you cannot access the app, contact support for help with deletion.

For older accounts without a stored Apple authorization token, the app provides instructions for stopping Sign in with Apple in Apple Account settings after account deletion. For accounts with a stored token, the service revokes that authorization as part of deletion. If a temporary service error prevents completion, the app shows an error so you can retry or contact support.

We retain information for the purposes described here, considering whether you still use the relevant service, unresolved support requests, security needs and applicable legal obligations. Service-provider logs and recovery backups follow separate retention cycles. Removing information from an active system does not necessarily remove every backup copy immediately. Contact us to ask about retention or deletion for your situation.

Your privacy choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, obtain a copy of, delete or restrict the use of your personal information; object to certain processing; withdraw consent for future processing; or appeal our response. You may also complain to your local privacy regulator. Contact support@retro.llc to make a request. We may ask for information needed to verify your identity or authority to act for another person. We will not penalize you for exercising applicable privacy rights.

Where a legal basis is required, we process information to provide the service you request, pursue legitimate interests such as security and support, comply with legal obligations, or act on your consent where required. Withdrawing a permission may prevent the related feature from working.

You can edit your profile, leave a group, manage reminders, choose what to share, and delete your account. We do not use automated decisions about you that produce legal or similarly significant effects; automated trivia scoring determines game results only.

Security and international processing

We and our service providers may process information in countries other than your own. Privacy protections may differ between countries. You can contact us for information about the providers and safeguards applicable to your information. No internet service or device is completely secure; we use safeguards appropriate to the information and service.

Children

Magical Trivia is intended for people aged 13 and older and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Do not provide someone else’s personal information, especially a child’s, in a profile, group or trivia suggestion. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action. Where local law requires parental permission for an older minor, that permission is required.

Changes and contact

We will update this page as practices change and provide additional notice or seek consent when required for a material change. The date above identifies this revision.
