Privacy policy
In short: Corsair’s Wake does not collect, share or sell any personal information. The game has no accounts, no advertising, no analytics, no tracking and no in-app purchases. It does not connect to the internet at all: the app does not even ask Android for permission to use the network. Everything the game remembers stays on your device.
What the game keeps on your device
The game stores these things in its own private storage on your phone, so it can pick up where you left off:
- Your saved voyage: your progress in the game, including the captain’s name you type when you start a new game.
- Your settings: sound volumes, sound on or off, vibration, screen shake, steering style, graphics quality and the language you chose.
This information never leaves your device through the game. We cannot see it, and we never receive a copy.
When you first start the game, it reads your phone’s language setting to suggest a language. That check happens on the device and nothing is sent anywhere.
Permissions
The app asks for one Android permission: vibration, used for short pulses when cannons fire or your ship is hit. You can turn vibration off in the game’s Settings.
The app does not ask for, and cannot use, the internet, your location, contacts, camera, microphone, photos, files or any other personal data on your phone.
Services run by Google
The game itself sends nothing to anyone, but it runs on Android and is distributed through Google Play, which are run by Google under Google’s own privacy policy:
- Google Play handles downloads, installs, updates, ratings and reviews. Google gives developers statistics about their app, such as install numbers and anonymous reports of crashes and freezes from devices whose owners have chosen to share diagnostics with Google. We use these only to fix problems and improve the game. They do not identify you to us.
- Android backup. If you have turned on backup in your Android settings, Android may include the game’s saved voyage and settings in your device backup to your Google account, so they can be restored on a new phone. Google handles that backup; we have no access to it. You can turn backup off in your phone’s settings.
- Android System WebView. The game is drawn by Android System WebView, a part of Android made by Google. If you have allowed your device to share usage and diagnostics data with Google, Android and its components may send diagnostic information to Google under Google’s privacy policy. We do not receive it.
Children
Corsair’s Wake is not directed at children under 13. Because the game collects no personal information from anyone, it collects none from children either.
Deleting your data
Because your data is only on your device, you are in full control of it:
- Erase your voyage in the game: open the Ledger and choose Abandon this voyage. This deletes the saved game.
- Erase everything the game stores (the save and all settings): on your phone, go to Settings › Apps › Corsair’s Wake › Storage › Clear storage (the exact names vary a little between phones).
- Uninstalling the game deletes everything it stored on the device.
There is nothing to delete on our side, because we never receive any of it.

Changes to this policy
If a future version of the game changes what it does with information, we will update this policy, change the effective date above, and update the game’s Google Play listing before that version is released.
