This is the privacy statement for Time Rolls, the photo game built by Mission Peak, LLC for older adults and the people who care for them. It explains what the app collects, why, how long it's kept, and the choices and rights you have over your data.
Time Rolls is built by Mission Peak, LLC, 10311 Regency Station Dr, Fairfax Station, VA 22039, USA. Mission Peak, LLC is the data controller for this statement. You can reach us at information@mission-peak.com.
Time Rolls shows people their own photographs and asks gentle questions about them. It has no user accounts, no login, and no email address. We are built to know as little about you as possible.
Your photographs are the most personal thing this app touches, and they never leave your device. They are displayed on your screen and, for some questions, examined by your own device's photo recognition. No image is ever uploaded, and no description of what is in one is ever sent anywhere.
Nothing that identifies you. There is no account, no sign-in, no name, no email address, no phone number and no advertising identifier. There is no analytics SDK, no crash-reporting SDK and no advertising code in the app — not disabled, not present.
Stays on your device. Your photographs and everything derived from them; which photographs a caregiver has asked never to be shown, kept as identifiers only; your settings; your stars, streak and how many sessions you have played; a record of which questions have been asked recently, so they are not repeated; and downloaded copies of the photographs in our photo packs.
Photographs. The app asks for photo library access so it can show you your own pictures. For the Things game, your device's own photo recognition looks at them to spot everyday things — a dog, a cake, a beach. That happens entirely on the device. No photograph and no label is sent anywhere.
Microphone. If you turn on answering out loud, speech is recognised on the device itself, with on-device recognition explicitly required. Nothing is recorded, stored or sent. The microphone is open only while a round is waiting for an answer, and not at all when sound is switched off.
Photo locations. For the Places game, the coordinates recorded in a photograph are used to work out the name of the place. This is a location lookup, and it is the only thing about a photograph that leaves your device — never the image, and never a description of it.
Where you are, only if you ask. “Places near you” is off unless you turn it on. When it is on, a rough location — rounded to about a kilometre — is sent to Wikipedia to ask what notable places are nearby. It is not stored, nothing identifies your device, and no photograph is involved.
Our photo packs. The photographs in the packs are fetched from OneBucket, our storage provider, as you play. Each request names a photograph and says nothing about you — no identifier, no account, nothing about your own pictures. Each is cached on your device so it is fetched once rather than each time it appears.
Sharing and saving. Tapping Share hands a picture to your device's own share sheet; you choose who receives it, and it never passes through us. Saving a photograph uses add-only permission: the right to write one image to your library, not to read what is already there.
Gameplay counts. The app keeps a private record of how it is used — which theme, right or wrong, how long a set took. It is written to a file inside the app on your device and is never sent anywhere. It contains nothing about which photograph, person or place was shown. Deleting the app deletes it.
Where the GDPR, UK GDPR or Brazil's LGPD applies, we rely on: performance of a service you request under our Terms of Use (operating the app); and our legitimate interests in keeping the service working and secure. Where we ever rely on consent — photo library access, the microphone, and “Places near you” are each asked for separately and are each optional — you may withdraw it at any time in iOS Settings.
Everything personal to you stays on your device, protected by your device's own encryption. We operate no account system and hold no database of users.
The photographs in our photo packs are stored with OneBucket, our storage provider and processor under a data processing agreement. That storage holds only freely licensed photographs that are already public; it holds nothing about you. Requests for them are encrypted in transit.
We do not sell or share your personal information, and we use no third-party advertising or analytics that would constitute a “sale” or “share” under US state laws.
Our photo-pack storage is processed in the United States. Because we hold no personal data about you, there is no transfer of your personal data out of the EEA or UK to safeguard. Where that ever changes, we will use appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.
We keep nothing, because we hold nothing. Everything the app knows about you is on your device, and deleting the app deletes all of it: your settings, your stars and streak, the caregiver's hidden-photo list, the private record of gameplay counts, and the cached photo-pack images.
Photographs you shared or saved remain wherever you sent or saved them, as you would expect.
Depending on where you live, you have rights to access, correct, delete and export your personal data, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to be free from unlawful discrimination for exercising these rights.
Because we hold no personal data about you, there is nothing for us to produce, correct or erase. You exercise these rights directly on your device: photo, microphone and location permissions are all revocable in iOS Settings, and deleting the app erases everything it holds. For questions, contact information@mission-peak.com. EU/UK users may also complain to their data protection authority. California residents may use an authorized agent and are entitled to non-discrimination for exercising their rights.
Time Rolls is made for older adults and the people who care for them, and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect data from children — we do not knowingly collect data from anybody — and there is nothing in the app that could identify a person of any age.
Some of what the app stores is chosen by a caregiver on somebody else's behalf: which photographs are never shown, how large the text is, how long a session runs. This is kept on the device and is never sent anywhere. It is behind a simple lock in the app so it is not changed by accident, not to keep it from the person playing.
The photographs in our packs come from Wikimedia Commons and are used under their licences. Those requiring attribution name their photographer in the app under Privacy → Photo credits; the remainder are public domain or CC0 and require none. No photograph of yours is ever included in a pack or shown to anybody else.
We will update this statement as the app evolves and will revise the “Last updated” date above. Material changes will be highlighted in the app.
