Your game stays on your device. The app keeps your games, tournaments, teams, and stats on your device. No account, no servers, no analytics, no tracking. Nothing you enter is ever sent to us — we have no backend to send it to.
Who we are
Stationify Oy (Business ID: 3608699-3, D-U-N-S: 369301281) is a software company based in Helsinki, Finland. Petanque: Score & Tournament is published on the Apple App Store by Stationify Oy. On your home screen the app is called Petanque, and inside it Petanque Companion.
Our privacy principle
We believe people own their data. The app follows one rule: nothing you enter is sent to us. Scoring, tournaments, statistics, and everything else run on-device. We do not operate a backend, user accounts, tracking systems, or analytics platforms.
Data we collect
The short answer: as little as possible. The table below describes the categories of data the app handles.
| Data type | Collected? | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Games, tournaments, teams & stats | On-device only | Your matches, tournament brackets, player and team rosters, and computed statistics are stored locally on your device (via SwiftData), shared with your home-screen widgets through an on-device container, and with your paired Apple Watch through Apple's WatchConnectivity. They are never sent to Stationify — we have no server to send them to. |
| Camera (AR) | Used, not stored | The camera powers augmented-reality measurement of boule distances. Camera frames are processed live on-device to place markers and compute distances; they are not recorded or uploaded. |
| Player photos & exported scorecards | On-device only | Photos you pick for players with the system photo picker are resized and stored inside the app. Scorecards and images you export go wherever you send them from the share sheet. The app doesn't browse your photo library, and none of this is sent to us. |
| Personal information (name, email, phone) | No | We do not collect personal identifiers. No account is required. |
| Usage analytics & tracking | No | We do not use analytics SDKs, ad trackers, or third-party telemetry. The app does not ask for tracking permission because it does not track you. |
| Advertising data | No | We do not display ads or participate in ad networks. |
| Device identifiers | No | We do not read or store IDFA or hardware identifiers for our own purposes. |
| Diagnostics & crash data | Apple only | If you opt in to share diagnostics with developers via iOS Settings, Apple may provide us with anonymised crash reports. We do not operate our own crash-reporting service. |
Camera permission
The app requests camera access when you use augmented-reality scoring. The camera is used to measure the distance from each boule to the cochonnet and is never used outside an explicit measurement action. Camera frames are processed on-device and are not recorded.
Player photos
Player photos are chosen with the system photo picker, which hands the app only the photo you pick, without access to the rest of your library. The picked photo is resized and stored inside the app. If you save an exported image to Photos from the share sheet, iOS handles that. Nothing is uploaded to us.
Sharing and export
When you tap Share or Export, iOS's standard share sheet lets you send a scoresheet, standings PDF, image card or CSV/JSON file to a destination you choose — Messages, Mail, Files, and so on. That transfer is handled by iOS and the destination app, under your control. Nothing is sent anywhere automatically.
Third-party services
The app does not integrate third-party analytics, advertising, or social-media SDKs. The only services involved are Apple's own, governed by Apple's Privacy Policy:
- Apple ARKit & RealityKit — for on-device augmented-reality boule measurement
- Apple WidgetKit & ActivityKit — for widgets and the Live Activity
- Apple WatchConnectivity — for syncing the score to your Apple Watch
- Apple StoreKit — only to show Apple's standard rating prompt; the app has no in-app purchases
Data storage & security
Your data is stored locally on your device, protected by iOS data protection, and is included in your own encrypted device backups if you have those enabled. There is no Stationify server in the loop and no cloud account. You can remove everything by deleting the relevant games and teams, or by deleting the app.
Children's privacy
We do not knowingly collect any personal data from anyone, including children under 13. Because the app does not collect personal data, it complies with COPPA and similar regulations by design.
Data retention
We do not retain any user data because we do not collect any on our side. Your games, teams, and stats exist on your device and in your own device backups. When you delete them — or delete the app — they are gone from the device.
Your rights
Under GDPR and other privacy regulations, you have the right to access, correct, and delete your personal data. Since we do not collect or store personal data on our servers, there is nothing for us to provide, correct, or delete. All data remains under your control on your own device.
Changes to this policy
If we update this policy, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. If the app introduces new data practices, we will update both this policy and its App Store privacy label before the change takes effect.
