Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 19, 2026 · App: SANDIK: Siyaset Simülasyonu
This policy explains what data the SANDIK mobile game (Android and iOS) processes. In short: no accounts, no ads, no tracking. Single-player runs entirely on your device; only the optional online mode sends the minimum data needed to run a shared game.
1. Controller
Hüseyin Taha Koç (developer of SANDIK; “Hardfork” on Google Play), Türkiye. Contact: info@notbende.com
2. Data that stays on your device
Saved games, settings, SANDIK Pro status, players you blocked and your online nickname are stored locally and never sent to us. Uninstalling the app deletes them.
3. Data processed in online mode
| Data | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Player name (a nickname you choose; no real name required) | Shown to other players in your room |
| A random identifier generated by the app (not a phone number, advertising ID or hardware ID) | Lets you return to your rooms and attributes moves to you |
| Room code, chosen party, game state, in-game chat and moves | Running the shared game for everyone at once |
| IP address and technical logs during connection | Security and error logs of the hosting provider |
| If you report a player: the reported player's name, the reason you chose and the related message | Reviewing and preventing abuse (deleted after 180 days) |
Stored on Supabase infrastructure in Frankfurt, Germany (EU), over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Legal basis: performance of a contract and legitimate interest (GDPR Art. 6(1)(b) and (f)).
4. Purchases
SANDIK Pro is a one-time in-app purchase processed by Google Play or the Apple App Store. We never see or store card or payment details; the device only receives confirmation that the purchase succeeded.
5. Data we do not collect
No location, contacts, photos, microphone, camera, email, phone number or advertising ID. The app contains no ads, analytics or third-party trackers. We do not sell or share your data for advertising.
6. Sharing
Online room data is only shown to players in the same room. It is not shared with anyone except Supabase Inc. as hosting processor, or authorities when legally required.
7. Retention and deletion
- Online rooms with no moves for 90 days are deleted automatically together with player records and game state.
- In the app, Settings → Delete my online data deletes your data at any time: rooms where you are alone, still in the lobby or finished are deleted entirely; in rooms others are still playing your name becomes “Deleted player” and the link to your identifier is removed. The rest of that game's record is removed when the room expires after 90 days.
- Player reports are deleted after 180 days.
- Details: data deletion page.
8. Your rights
You have the right to access, rectify, erase, object and lodge a complaint under GDPR and Turkish law (KVKK). Write to info@notbende.com; we answer within 30 days.
9. Children
SANDIK is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal data from them. If you believe such data exists, contact us and we will delete it.
10. Changes
Updates are published on this page with a new date.
