Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 4, 2026
DEAD CENTER is a one-thumb iPhone arcade. Short version: your best score and mute/haptics settings stay on the phone. There is no account.
1. Introduction
DEAD CENTER is a native iPhone arcade game. It is developed by Gowtam Ramanujam (gowtam.ai). This policy describes what the app does and does not do with information when you use it.
2. Effective date
This policy is effective as of the last-updated date shown at the top of this page. When the policy changes, that date will be updated.
3. Information we do not collect
DEAD CENTER does not:
- Create or require user accounts, or offer sign-in
- Sync scores to a cloud service we operate
- Include first-party analytics, usage tracking, advertising, or crash-reporting SDKs in the product as shipped
- Sell advertising identifiers or personal data
- Access the camera, microphone, location, contacts, or photos
There is no DEAD CENTER backend that stores your runs or best score.
4. Information stored on your device
Data the app keeps lives on your iPhone, using Apple's UserDefaults:
- Your local best score
- Mute and haptics on/off
Reduce Motion follows the iPhone system setting. Uninstalling the app removes this local data subject to how iOS manages app storage.
5. Network requests
Play does not require a network connection. The app does not call a game server. Ordinary App Store updates and iOS itself may still contact Apple.
6. Third parties
DEAD CENTER does not ship third-party SDKs whose purpose is analytics, advertising, or crash reporting.
7. Children
DEAD CENTER is an abstract arcade (age rating 4+). It is not a Made for Kids app. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. There is no account to create.
8. Data retention and deletion
Because the best score and settings live on your device, you control retention. Uninstall DEAD CENTER to remove the app and its local data from that device. There is no cloud account to delete.
9. Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated from time to time. When it changes, the last-updated date at the top of this page will change. Continued use of the app after an update means you accept the revised policy for future use.
