Privacy Policy
This privacy policy applies to the ChirpQuiz mobile application (the "Application") created by Julien Levarlet (the "Service Provider") as a free service. This service is provided "AS IS".
Privacy at a glance
- 100% local storage: All scores, achievements, and game progress stay on your device.
- No account required: You can play without creating an account or logging in.
- No tracking or profiling: We do not collect personal data, track your location, or build user profiles.
- No personal server data: We do not operate servers that store your personal information.
Data collection and local storage
ChirpQuiz is designed to respect your privacy. The Application does not collect or store personally identifiable information on external servers.
All game-related data, such as scores, unlocked achievements, and quiz progress, is stored locally on your device only. The Application does not track your precise location, collect user analytics, or display targeted advertisements.
Third-party content services
To display bird images and audio recordings, the Application connects directly to public APIs. When your device fetches this content, it makes a standard HTTP request directly to those servers.
As with any internet connection, these third-party servers automatically receive standard technical metadata needed to fulfill the request:
- App identifier (User-Agent): An HTTP header identifying "ChirpQuiz" so third-party APIs can monitor traffic according to their fair-use policies.
- Your IP address: Transmitted automatically by your network to receive the requested image or sound.
No user account, user profile, or game data is ever sent. For details on how these services log and handle technical network data, such as IP addresses, refer to their respective policies:
External links
The Application may contain links to external websites, such as Wikipedia, Xeno-canto, GBIF, and the IUCN Red List. If you click a third-party link, you will be redirected to that site. These external sites are not operated by the Service Provider. We advise you to review their privacy policies.
Data retention and deletion
Since all game progress and settings are stored locally on your device, uninstalling the Application automatically and permanently deletes all app data. No data remains on external servers because none was sent.
Children's privacy
The Application does not knowingly solicit or collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. Since no personal data is collected from any user, children's privacy is protected by design. Parents or guardians with concerns can contact us at birdquiz.contact@gmail.com.
Legacy users (Google Play Games data)
If you used a previous version of ChirpQuiz integrated with Google Play Games, historical scores and achievements may still be stored on Google's servers. The current version no longer connects to Google Play Games, so this data is no longer accessed or used.
To permanently delete past Play Games data for ChirpQuiz through your Android device:
- Open the Google Play Games app.
- Tap the three-dot menu or profile avatar and open Settings.
- Select Delete Play Games account & data.
- Under Delete individual game data, find ChirpQuiz and tap Delete.
Changes to this policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. Changes will be reflected on this page. You are advised to review it periodically.
This privacy policy is effective as of September 8, 2026.
