Privacy, in plain words

Who we are

Daylight Labs is the name we publish apps under on the Apple App Store and Google Play. Daylight Labs is a trade name of Pixel Pilot Studios LLC, a Florida limited liability company based in St. Petersburg, Florida, United States (“we”, “us”). We decide how the information described here is used. You can reach us at privacy@daylightlabs.org.

This website

This website exists to describe our apps and give you a way to contact us.

• It sets no cookies and stores nothing in your browser.
• It has no analytics, no advertising and no social-media trackers.
• It has no sign-up forms. The contact and test-build buttons simply open your own email app.
• Its fonts and images are served from our own site, not from a third party.

Like most websites, the company that hosts this one (Vercel Inc.) keeps ordinary server logs. These usually record the IP address, the time, and the page that was asked for. They are kept for security and to keep the site running. We do not use them to build profiles or to contact anyone.

If you email us

If you write to any of our addresses, including to ask for a test build:

• We use your email address and message only to read and answer you, and to send a test invitation if you asked for one.
• We keep the conversation for up to 12 months after it ends, unless we need it longer to sort out a problem or meet a legal duty.
• We never add you to a marketing list, and we never sell your address or share it for advertising.
• Our email providers (Cloudflare, which routes mail for our domain, and Google, which hosts our inbox) store and deliver the messages for us.

To have an email conversation deleted sooner, write to privacy@daylightlabs.org.

Our games: Ricochet Rush, Coil Chaos and Hungry Bug

These three games collect nothing. We do not collect, receive or store any personal information or device information about you through them.

• No accounts. There is no sign-in, no profile and no chat.
• No ads and no trackers. The games contain no advertising, analytics or tracking code, and they do not use an advertising identifier.
• Saved on your device only. Scores, settings and progress (for example your best score in Ricochet Rush, or the apples, butterflies and skins in Hungry Bug) are saved in a small file on your device. It is never sent to us or to anyone else.
• Offline play. The games work without an internet connection.

Purchases in Hungry Bug

Hungry Bug is planned to offer optional one-time skin packs. If you buy one, the Apple App Store or Google Play takes the payment, after a grown-up passes a parental gate in the app. We never see your name, card or other payment details. The store tells the app on your device which packs you own, and the app remembers that on the device. The store’s own privacy policy covers your purchase and your store account.

Device backups

Your phone’s own backup (such as iCloud or Google’s backup) may copy a game’s saved file along with the rest of your apps. Those backups belong to you and to Apple or Google. We cannot see or open them.

What the stores tell us

Apple and Google show developers totals, such as the number of downloads, in their developer tools. Those totals cannot identify you or your child.

Kitchfit

Kitchfit is a fitness, nutrition and cooking app for adults aged 18 and over. It is still in development and is not yet available to the public. It works differently from our games because a training and food plan needs to know things about you. This is how it is designed:

• An account is optional. Without one, what you enter stays on your phone. If you sign in (with a one-time code sent to your email address), your plan and history are saved to your account so they survive a new phone.
• What it handles. Your email address; your answers to the setup questions (such as goals, age, height, weight, health-check answers, injuries, allergies and diet); and what you log (workouts, weigh-ins, daily check-ins, foods and meals).
• Health information needs separate consent. Health details are saved to your account only after you agree to a separate health-data consent in the app. You can withdraw it and delete that data.
• The camera reads barcodes only. No picture is recorded or saved when you scan a food barcode.
• What it never collects. Your precise location, contacts, photo library, advertising identifier or browsing history.
• Deleting everything. A Delete account button inside the app removes your account and everything in it.
• No sale, no advertising use. Kitchfit data is never sold, never used for advertising and never shared with data brokers. Service providers that host the app’s data handle it only to run Kitchfit for us.

Kitchfit will publish its own detailed privacy policy, including the full list of service providers, before it is released. Where that policy says something different about Kitchfit, it will take priority over this summary. Kitchfit offers general wellness guidance. It is not a medical device and does not give medical advice.

Test builds

If you join a test round, the build reaches you through Apple’s TestFlight, Google Play’s testing tools or a private web link. Apple and Google handle testers under their own privacy policies and may share basic crash and usage information about test builds with us. A web test link is served by a hosting company that keeps ordinary server logs, as described for this website. The games behave the same way in testing as described above: they collect nothing themselves.

Children

Hungry Bug is made for children aged 6 to 8. Because it collects no personal information, there is nothing in it that needs a parent’s consent under the U.S. Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). The parental gate in the game protects purchases and settings. It is not a consent step for collecting data, because the game collects none.

This website and our other apps are meant for a general audience, and Kitchfit is for adults only. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Please do not send us a child’s name, photo or other personal details. If we learn that a child under 13 has emailed us, we will not ask for more information. If the message shows how to reach a parent or guardian, we may reply to that grown-up and then delete the message. Otherwise we simply delete it.

Sharing and selling

We do not sell personal information. We do not share it for advertising. We may disclose information if the law requires it, or to protect the rights and safety of our users or ourselves. If the studio or one of its apps is ever transferred to another company, this policy will continue to apply to information collected under it until you are told otherwise.

Your choices and rights

• Game data: it lives on your device. Deleting the app removes it. Hungry Bug also has a Reset progress button in its Grown-ups area.
• Emails: ask us to show you, correct or delete an email conversation at any time.
• Kitchfit: use the controls in the app, or write to us.

Depending on where you live, you may have further legal rights, such as to see, correct or delete personal information, or to complain to your local data-protection authority. A parent or guardian can act for a child. We will not treat you differently for using any of these rights.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will post the new version here and change the effective date at the top. If a change is significant, for example when an app launches or starts handling new kinds of information, we will say so clearly on this page before it takes effect.
