Fraction Isles: Privacy Policy
Effective 7 November 2026. Fraction Isles is published by Kalman Software LLC.
The short version
Fraction Isles collects no personal information from anyone, child or adult. There are no accounts, no advertising, no analytics and no tracking, and the game never connects to the internet. Everything it keeps stays on the device it is played on.
What the game keeps, and where
To let a child carry on where they left off, the game stores these on the device itself, in the app's own storage:
- the island the child has reached, the wood earned and the sail chosen;
- an island log: for each island, counts such as cuts, slips, the captain's questions answered right or wrong, and seconds spent;
- two settings: whether the voice and the sound are on.
The log contains no name, no date, no photo, no location and no device identifier. None of this is sent to us or to anyone else. Deleting the app deletes it all, and a parent can also clear it with Restart world in the For grown-ups panel.
What we collect
Nothing. We do not collect, receive, store or share any personal information. The app contains no third-party code that does: no advertising, analytics, crash-reporting or social SDKs.
Things only a parent can do
The For grown-ups panel sits behind a parental gate (a multiplication question). From there a parent may choose to:
- Send or copy the island log as a CSV file, using the device's own share sheet. It goes only where the parent sends it.
- Email us feedback, which opens the parent's own email app with a short invitation. Nothing is attached and nothing is sent until the parent sends it. If you write to us, we use your email only to reply, and we ask you not to include your child's name or other identifying details.
- Open this page or the support page in the browser.
Children's privacy
Fraction Isles is made for children and is listed in the App Store's Kids category. Because it collects no personal information, it collects none from children under 13 (as defined by the US Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) or under 16 (as defined by the EU and UK GDPR). It is designed to the UK Age Appropriate Design Code's most protective defaults: no data collection, no profiling, no nudges, no location and no connection to anyone outside the game.
Apple
Apple may collect information when you download apps from the App Store, under Apple's own privacy policy. We receive only the aggregated, anonymous download and usage figures Apple shows to every developer, and only from people who have chosen to share them with developers.
Changes
If this policy changes, for example because a later version adds something new, we will update this page and its effective date before that version is released, and say so in the App Store release notes.
