Privacy Policy
Updated October 31, 2026
The short version. Farsa does not ask who you are. There is no account, no sign-up, no ads, and no tracking across other apps or websites. The names you type and your scoreboard stay on your phone. The iPhone and iPad app does send us usage records, such as counts of what happens in it (a game started, a purchase finished, something failed) and the language and the deck code of a game. Every record is tied to a random install number that the app makes on your phone, not to your name or your email, which the app never asks for. It never includes your names, the words you type, the words of the decks, who won or what anyone scored, or your location. You can turn it off at any time with the switch "Share anonymous usage data" in Settings, and below we say how long we keep the records and how to ask us to delete them. The Android app sends us no usage records and has no usage-sharing switch; its events stay on your phone. Purchases go through Apple on iPhone and iPad and through Google Play on Android.
Who we are
Farsa is made by Conecta Media LLC, 1449 S Michigan Ave #13448, Chicago, IL 60605, USA. You can reach us at contact@conectamedia.app. In this policy "we" means Conecta Media LLC.
What stays on your phone
These stay on your device, and we never receive them:
- the player names you type
- the names of the communities you pick in My table (a record only says how many were picked)
- your scoreboard and the results of your games: who played, who won and how many points each player has
- which decks you have looked at, which Plus deck is free this week, and the count of plays that puts "What you play most" on your home screen (the count itself is never sent)
On iPhone and iPad, what does leave the phone, as usage records tied to a random install number, is listed in the next section: among other things the language of the app and of a table, which setting you changed, the code of the deck a game started with (the first one), and how many answers and passes a turn of Charades had. Because of that code, the games played with each deck can be counted from the records, under a random number and never under a name.
The one exception is a result card or invitation link that you choose to share. It can carry the name of the player it is about, the communities at your table and a deck code, and it goes only to the person or app you pick. We never receive it.
Deleting the app deletes all of it from the phone; a copy may remain in your own device backup (iCloud or a computer), which you control. The motion sensor is used on the phone to detect the tilt in charades. Its readings never leave the phone. To suggest a table and to order the decks, the app reads the region, the languages and the time zone your phone reports; they are used on the phone and are not sent to us (the language of the app and of a table, which you choose, are in the records below), and they are not your location. Farsa does not use your camera, microphone, contacts or location, and it never reads your photos. On iPhone and iPad, when you tap Save on a result card, the app asks for permission to add that one picture to your Photos (add only). If you turn on the plan renewal reminder, the app asks for permission to show one notification, which your phone schedules itself; nothing about it is sent to us.
What the iPhone and iPad app sends to us
Only the usage records described here, and only while the switch "Share anonymous usage data" is on in Settings. They help us see where players stop and fix what breaks without crashing.
- What it is. A short record each time something happens in the app: you finished the first screens, a table was set, a game started or ended, a turn of Charades ended, the paywall was shown, a plan was chosen, a purchase or a restore finished, a setting changed, a table link was opened, a game that your phone had taken away came back, the app was installed, updated, opened or sent to the background, or something failed (for example, the file of your table could not be saved or a game could not be dealt).
- What is in a record. The name of the event and a few facts about it, each one a number or a word from a fixed list: the game mode, how many players, the table language, how many communities were picked (never which ones), the deck code of the deck a game started with (the first one, when you pick several), how long a game lasted in ranges (for example 2 to 5 minutes), how many answers and passes a turn of Charades had and whether they came by tilt or by tap (never whose they were), the plan, the result of a purchase or restore and the kind of error, and which setting changed, with its new value when it is one of a short list (for example the sound turned off, or the app set to English). Every record also carries the version of the app, the language of the app, and technical details of the phone such as its model and system version, and whether it is a TestFlight build. When the app is installed, updated, opened or sent to the background, the record also carries the version and build of the app, the version it was before an update and whether it came back from the background.
- What it never contains. Player names, anything you type, the words of the decks, the names of the communities you picked, the code of a table link, who won or what any player scored, your Apple Account, your email, your contacts, your photos, your location or the advertising identifier. The app does not record your screen, does not follow your taps around the app, collects no crash reports, and builds no profile of you.
- How it is tied to you. The app makes a random number on your phone, the install ID, the first time sharing starts. Every record carries the install ID that was current when it was sent. That number is what ties those records together, so we treat them as data linked to that install, not as data nobody can trace. It is not your name, your Apple Account, your phone's identifier or anything else we could use to find you, and we never receive your name or your email through the app. On iPhone and iPad, the random install ID is shown in Settings, in the Data section, where you can copy it. The app replaces it with a new random one about every 6 months. The phone keeps the earlier ones that records were sent with for about 400 days after their first record, so a deletion request covers your install IDs of the last 12 months that the phone keeps. If you turn the switch off after records were sent with your install ID, it stays on your phone and nothing is sent with it except your own deletion request, so you can still ask us to delete those records. If you turn the switch on again, the app keeps using it until it is replaced or you ask us to delete its records. If nothing was sent yet, the install ID is simply forgotten when you turn the switch off.
- Who receives it. PostHog, our analytics provider, stores the records on its servers in the United States and processes them for us. It does not use them for its own purposes. We have set the service not to store IP addresses and not to work out a place from them.
- Where the switch is. Settings, "Share anonymous usage data". It starts off on every phone, wherever you are, and nothing is sent until you turn it on. When it is off, the app sends nothing and keeps nothing waiting to be sent. On iPhone and iPad, the one thing it can still send is your own request to delete the records tied to your install, when you ask for it in Settings. When you are offline with it on, records wait on your phone and go out later.
- How long we keep it. We keep these records for up to 12 months, and then we delete them. Our cleanup job deletes all records of an install ID after its first record is about 7 months old, which keeps every record inside those 12 months. Your deletion request is kept as records too: they carry the install IDs it names, the app version and language and technical details of the phone, and no usage data. They are deleted by age like every other record.
- How to ask us to delete them. To ask us to delete the records tied to your install, on iPhone and iPad, open Settings, tap "Delete my usage data" in the Data section and confirm; the records of your install IDs of the last 12 months are deleted within 30 days. Before it sends the request, the app stops sharing and deletes the records still waiting on the phone. If it gets no confirmation that the request arrived, your install IDs stay on the phone so you can try again, and no new record is ever sent with them; if sharing was on, it goes on with a new random install ID. Once the request is confirmed and the app has finished its steps on the phone, sharing is off and your current and earlier install IDs are erased from your phone. A new one is made the next time you turn the switch on.
Everything else the app needs, including every deck, is inside the app. When you tap Report on a card, that word is hidden on your phone and nothing is sent; to ask us to remove a word for everyone, write to us.
Purchases
On Android, the Google Play Billing Library inside the app handles purchases. It sends Google its own technical diagnostics about billing API results and connection issues over an encrypted connection, to help Google fix and improve its billing service. We receive none of these diagnostics. Google keeps and deletes them under Google's privacy policy; we cannot access them or delete them for anyone.
If you subscribe to Farsa Plus, Apple (or Google Play on Android) takes the payment. We never see your card, your Apple Account or your Google account. Apple and Google give us sales totals by country, not who bought. The app checks on your phone, through Apple or Google, whether Plus is active. The usage records above include whether a purchase or restore worked and which plan, with no account or payment details. See the subscription terms.
What we do not do
- We show no ads and use no advertising software.
- We do not track you across other apps or websites, we do not combine this data with data from other companies, and the app never shows a tracking permission prompt.
- We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it for advertising. PostHog handles the usage records as our service provider.
- We do not build profiles of players, and we do not try to find out who sent a record.
Where processing happens
The game works on your phone. The usage records go to PostHog's servers in the United States. This website is served by Cloudflare's network, which has servers around the world, and like any website it sees the network address a page request comes from. Our company is in the United States.
If you write to us
When you email support we receive your email address and your message. We use them to answer you, to handle refunds and word removals, and to keep a record that we did. We do not add you to any mailing list.
Children
Farsa is a general-audience game, rated 9+ on the App Store, and it is not directed at children as its main audience. It does not ask for names, email addresses or any personal details from anyone, children included. On iPhone and iPad, the usage records are the same for every player: a random install number and counts, never a name or a word anyone typed. A parent can turn them off in Settings. If you are a parent and have a question, write to us.
Your rights
The usage records are tied to a random install number and not to your name or your email, so finding the records of one person needs that number. To ask us to delete the records tied to your install, on iPhone and iPad, open Settings, tap "Delete my usage data" in the Data section and confirm; the records of your install IDs of the last 12 months are deleted within 30 days. You can ask us anything about your data, and we will answer within 30 days, at contact@conectamedia.app. You can always stop new records yourself with the switch in Settings. The emails you send us are tied to your email address, and we can look them up and delete them when you ask.
- California. We do not sell personal information and we do not share it for advertising, so there is nothing to opt out of. The usage records use a random install number, not a name or an email, and you can turn them off in Settings.
- European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland. The usage records are off by default and are sent only if you turn the switch on; our legal basis is your consent, and you withdraw it by turning the switch off. You have the rights to access, correct, delete, restrict and object, and to complain to your data protection authority (in Spain, the Agencia Española de Protección de Datos), for the data we can link to you. For the emails you send us, our reason for using them is to answer you and to keep our legal records.
- Mexico. You can exercise your access, rectification, cancellation and opposition (ARCO) rights by writing to us. The Spanish version of this page has the aviso de privacidad.
Changes
If we change this policy, we change the date at the top. If the change matters, we say so in the app's release notes.
