Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

DadLink Technologies Limited ("we", "us", "our") operates the Insult King mobile application and website (collectively, the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our Service.

By using our Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you disagree with any part of this privacy policy, please do not use our Service.

2. Data We Don't Collect (Mobile App)

The Insult King mobile application is designed with privacy at its core. We believe in a "privacy by design" approach, which means we've built the app to minimize data collection.

What This Means:

• No Account Creation Required: You don't need to provide an email, name, or any personal information
• No Usage Tracking: We don't track what roasts you generate or how you use the app
• No Location Data: We don't access or store your location
• No Contact Access: We don't access your contacts, photos, or other device data
• No Analytics: We don't use third-party analytics services in the mobile app
• No Advertising: We don't serve ads or use advertising networks
• No Social Media Integration: We don't connect to social media platforms

Local Storage Only:

All your preferences, saved roasts, and app settings are stored locally on your device using iOS's secure storage mechanisms. This data never leaves your device and is deleted if you uninstall the app.

3. Website Data Collection

While our mobile app collects no data, our website (insultking.co.uk) does collect minimal data necessary for website functionality and security.

Information We Collect:

• Server Logs: IP addresses, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps for security and performance
• Contact Forms: Email addresses and messages when you contact us voluntarily
• Cookies: Essential cookies for website functionality (no tracking cookies)

How We Use Website Data:

• Respond to your inquiries and provide customer support
• Improve website performance and user experience
• Detect and prevent security threats
• Comply with legal obligations

4. App Store & Payment Information

Insult King is distributed through the Apple App Store. Any payment processing and subscription management is handled entirely by Apple, not by us.

What We Don't Have Access To:

• Your payment information (credit cards, billing addresses)
• Your Apple ID or personal details
• Individual purchase history or subscription status
• App Store review content or ratings you provide

Apple's Privacy Policy:

5. Your Rights Under UK GDPR

As a UK-based company, we comply with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR). Even though we collect minimal data, you have comprehensive rights regarding any data we do hold.

Your Rights Include:

• Right of Access: Request copies of any personal data we hold about you

6. Data Security

We take data security seriously and implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect any data we do collect.

Security Measures:

• Encryption: All data transmission uses industry-standard SSL/TLS encryption
• Access Controls: Strict access controls limit who can access any collected data
• Regular Updates: Systems are regularly updated with security patches
• Minimal Collection: Our best security practice is collecting minimal data in the first place

Mobile App Security:

Since all mobile app data is stored locally on your device, security relies on your device's built-in security features (Face ID, Touch ID, device passcode). We recommend keeping your device secure and up-to-date.

7. Children's Privacy

Insult King is designed for users aged 17 and above, as indicated in our App Store rating. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

8. International Data Transfers

DadLink Technologies Limited is based in the United Kingdom. Any website data we collect is processed and stored within the UK or European Economic Area (EEA).

We do not transfer personal data outside the UK/EEA without appropriate safeguards in place, such as adequacy decisions or appropriate safeguards under UK GDPR.

9. Data Retention

Mobile App:

Since we don't collect any data from the mobile app, there's nothing for us to retain. All your app data stays on your device until you delete the app.

Website Data:

• Contact Inquiries: Retained for 3 years to provide ongoing support
• Server Logs: Retained for 12 months for security and performance analysis
• Technical Cookies: Expire when you close your browser

You can request earlier deletion of your data by contacting us at support@dadlink.co.uk.

App Store:

The mobile app is distributed through Apple's App Store, which has its own privacy policy governing downloads, purchases, and reviews.
