Privacy Policy
Thornhold: Grove Defense
Effective November 14, 2026
Thornhold: Grove Defense ("Thornhold", "the app") is made by Peter Simkins. This policy explains what happens to your information when you use the app. The short version: Thornhold does not collect any personal data.
Information we collect
None. Thornhold has no accounts, no analytics, no advertising, and no third-party tracking or SDKs. The app does not send any information about you or your gameplay to the developer or to anyone else.
Information stored on your device
The app saves your campaign progress and your settings (such as whether sound is on) locally on your iPhone so you can pick up where you left off. This data never leaves your device through the app. It is removed when you delete the app, and it may be included in your own iCloud or computer backups of your device, which are governed by Apple's policies.
In-app purchases
The optional Full Grove unlock is purchased through Apple's App Store. Apple processes the payment; the developer never receives your name, payment details, or Apple Account information. The app only checks with Apple whether the purchase is active on your account. See Apple's Privacy Policy for how Apple handles purchase data.
Children
Thornhold is suitable for younger players and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
