Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 20, 2026
This policy explains how the iOS app MECHA BURST (the "App") and its official website (mechaburst.com), both provided by Yota Hamada (the "Developer"), handle information.
In short
The App needs no account and collects no personal information such as your name, email address or location. It shows no advertising and does no ad tracking; it never asks for App Tracking Transparency permission.
Usage analytics
To improve the game, the App sends anonymous usage data to the analytics service of Amplitude, Inc. The data consists of in-game events such as opening the game, starting and finishing a sortie, the first sortie, purchases made with in-game funds and launching a pod, together with the campaign state at that moment (front, rank, funds, piloted unit, number of wingmates, battle result and similar).
To tell devices apart, the App uses a random identifier that it generates on the device at first launch. This identifier is not Apple's advertising or vendor identifier (IDFA / IDFV) and is not linked to you. Your IP address is masked when the data is sent and is not stored. No personally identifiable information is included.
In-app purchase
The "Full Version" purchase is processed by Apple's App Store (StoreKit). The Developer does not receive or store purchase history, payment details or your Apple ID. Ownership is verified on the device.
Save data
Your progress is stored only on your device, alongside the anonymous identifier described above. It is not sent to any server operated by the Developer and not synced to iCloud. Deleting the App deletes the save data and the identifier.
This website
The official website (mechaburst.com) sets no cookies and runs no analytics. Its hosting provider, Cloudflare, Inc., may process access logs (including IP addresses) for security and operations under its own privacy policy.
Third-party services
The App and the website rely on the following third parties.
- Amplitude, Inc. (usage analytics) — https://amplitude.com/privacy
- Apple Inc. (App Store, in-app purchase) — https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/
- Cloudflare, Inc. (website hosting) — https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/
Children
Because the App collects no personal information, it treats every player the same regardless of age. It does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Retention and deletion
Analytics data is retained according to Amplitude's retention policy. Because the anonymous identifier is not linked to a person, the Developer cannot single out and delete a specific player's data. Deleting the App removes the identifier and the save data from your device, and no further data is sent.
Changes
Changes to this policy are published on this page, with the date at the top updated.
Language
The Japanese and English versions of this policy are authoritative. If another language version differs, the Japanese and English versions prevail.
