In short: the game collects no personal data and sends nothing to us or anyone else. Only if you test the beta via Apple's TestFlight does Apple share crash and usage information with us. The website works without cookies, analytics or advertising.

2. The game “Little Kitchen, Big World”
No personal data
The game needs no account and collects no personal data. It contains no tracking ads and no analytics tools, and it sends nothing to us or to third parties.
Saved game
Your progress is stored only on your device, in the app's storage. If iCloud Backup on your iPhone or Google backup on your Android device is turned on, Apple or Google backs it up there too – this depends on your settings and Apple's or Google's privacy policy. You can delete your progress in the game under Settings → “Start Over” or by deleting the app.
Purchases
In-app purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store on iPhone, and by Google through Google Play on Android. We never receive payment or account details. The game only receives confirmation of which item was bought and keeps the transaction number in the saved game on your device so that a purchase is not credited twice. The terms and privacy policy of Apple or Google apply to the processing.
Reminders
If you allow it in the game, the game reminds you with notifications on your phone – for example when the harvest is ready, your cooks finish their shift or Grandma's gift is waiting; none come at night. The game schedules the reminders on your device; nothing is sent to us or to third parties for this. You can switch them off at any time in the game under Settings → “Reminders”, or in your iPhone or Android settings under “Notifications”.
Crash reports via Apple and Google
If you have allowed sharing with app developers on your iPhone under Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements, Apple provides us with aggregated crash and usage statistics that do not identify you. On Android, Google does the same through Google Play if you have agreed to share usage and diagnostics data. Whether this happens is entirely up to you in those settings.
Beta testing via TestFlight
If you test the game's beta with Apple's TestFlight app, you are using a service provided by Apple. Apple automatically collects crash reports and usage information and shares them with us: device model and a device identifier, iOS version, device language, installed version, the number of installs, sessions and crashes, and crash logs. This cannot be turned off while you take part. If you joined through the public link, we see neither your name nor your email address.
If you send feedback through TestFlight, we also receive your comment, your screenshots and technical details at that moment – such as carrier, time zone, connection type, battery level, free storage and screen resolution. We only see your email address if you add it yourself or write to us by email.
We use this information only to find bugs and improve the game, and we do not pass it on. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in testing the game before release (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). We delete feedback once it has been reviewed; according to Apple, Apple keeps it for one year. Apple's own processing is covered by Apple's “TestFlight & Privacy” notice. You can stop taking part by deleting the beta or stopping testing in TestFlight.
Changes
Should the game later get features that process data, we will update this policy beforehand.
3. This website
Delivery via Cloudflare
The website is delivered via Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. When you visit it, Cloudflare processes technically necessary data – such as your IP address, the time, the page requested and your browser identifier – to deliver the site and protect it from attacks. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in a secure, working service (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). We have a data processing agreement with Cloudflare; transfers to the USA are based on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, under which Cloudflare is certified, and on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.
No cookies, no analytics, no third-party content
The website sets no cookies, uses no analytics or advertising services and loads no content from other providers. Even the fonts are hosted on this website itself. Links to X or TikTok are plain links – you only leave this website when you click them.
“I like it”
If you tap “I like it” on the home page, the website adds one to a number. Only this total is stored, in a database at Cloudflare (see above) – no IP address and nothing that could identify you. So that the button stays pressed, your browser keeps only a note in its local storage (“localStorage”) that you have already tapped it. This note stays on your device, is never transmitted and can be deleted via your browser's website data. The legal basis for this note is § 25(2) no. 2 TDDDG (strictly necessary for the function you requested).
Contact by email
If you email us, we process your address and your message in order to reply (Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR). Our mailboxes are hosted by ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich, owner René Münnich, Hauptstraße 68, 02742 Friedersdorf, Germany; we have a data processing agreement with this provider. We delete messages once they have been dealt with, unless statutory retention obligations require otherwise.
Contact form
Through the contact form you send us your email address, your message, the topic you chose, the language of the page and – if you like – your name. The website does not store this information; it sends it straight to our mailbox as an email via our mail server at ALL-INKL.COM, passing through the Cloudflare infrastructure mentioned above. We use the information only to answer your request (Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR) and delete it like other emails once it has been dealt with. An invisible extra field and a minimum time for filling in the form keep spam bots away; no further data is collected for this.
4. Your rights
Where we process data about you, you have the right to
- access (Art. 15 GDPR),
- rectification (Art. 16 GDPR),
- erasure (Art. 17 GDPR),
- restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR),
- data portability (Art. 20 GDPR) and
- object to processing based on legitimate interests (Art. 21 GDPR).
A short email to kontakt@littlekitchenbigworld.de is enough. You can also lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR), for example the Unabhängiges Datenschutzzentrum Saarland, Fritz-Dobisch-Straße 12, 66111 Saarbrücken, Germany.
