Privacy Policy — Fly Detroit
Last updated: September 9, 2026
Fly Detroit is a single-player iPhone game. It does not create its own account, does not show ads, and does not use its own analytics, crash-reporting, or advertising identifiers.
What stays on your device
Game progress, settings, and unlocks are stored only on your iPhone. They are not sent to the developer. Deleting the app deletes this data.
What leaves the device
The photorealistic 3D map is provided by Google Maps Platform (Maps 3D SDK for iOS). When the map loads, Google may collect request metadata (such as device model and OS version), a Maps SDK identifier, IP address, crash metrics from the SDK, and map-camera interaction data. Google uses this to operate and improve Maps services. See Google’s Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
Game Center
Signing into Game Center is optional. If you sign in with your Apple ID, the game reports achievement progress (destinations found and local speed records) to Apple. Gameplay still works if you do not sign in. Apple handles Game Center data under Game Center & Privacy.
Motion
Optional tilt controls use the device motion sensors on the phone. That data is not sent anywhere.
Children
The game is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information.
