Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 7, 2026

MapQuest ("we", "our", or "us") is developed by No Context Studios. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use the MapQuest mobile application ("the App").

1. Information We Collect

We collect minimal information necessary to operate the App:

• Username: A display name you choose when setting up the App, used to identify your scores on the leaderboard.
• Game scores: Your quiz scores and difficulty levels, stored locally on your device and optionally submitted to our global leaderboard.
• App preferences: Settings such as sound preferences and Pro status, stored locally on your device.

2. Global Leaderboard

If you choose to submit your score to the global leaderboard, your chosen username and score are stored in Google Firebase Firestore. This data is publicly visible to other players. We do not collect your real name, email address, or any personally identifiable information as part of this process.

3. Information We Do Not Collect

• We do not collect your real name, email address, or phone number.
• We do not collect precise location data.
• We do not collect payment information. Any in-app purchases are handled entirely by Google Play.
• We do not sell or share your data with third parties for marketing purposes.

4. Third-Party Services

The App uses the following third-party services:

• Google Firebase Firestore – for storing global leaderboard scores. Subject to Google's Privacy Policy.
• Google Play – for app distribution and in-app purchases. Subject to Google's Privacy Policy.

5. Data Storage and Security

Most app data (preferences, local scores, hints count) is stored locally on your device using AsyncStorage and never transmitted to our servers. Leaderboard data submitted to Firebase is stored securely using Google's infrastructure.

6. Children's Privacy

MapQuest is a general-audience geography quiz game suitable for all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The only data we store is a user-chosen username and game scores, which do not constitute personal information.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
