FFSKY / HANZI BIRD

Privacy Policy

Effective and last updated: September 25, 2026

We want you to feel comfortable spending time with your birds. Hanzi Bird does not require an FFSKY account, automatically upload your game progress to our servers, or use advertising trackers or behavioral analytics SDKs. This policy explains local data, information you choose to send us, and the separate role of platform services.

1. Scope and who we are

This policy covers the Hanzi Bird Windows and iOS/iPadOS games provided by FFSKY and the official website at hanzibird.com. The developer is FFSKY and the creator is FFSKYChocobo. You can contact us at ffskyteam@gmail.com.

Other games featured on the website, and third-party websites or stores you visit, are subject to their own applicable product or service policies.

2. Data in the game

Game saves, collections, settings and local logs are primarily stored on your device to run the game, remember settings and help troubleshoot problems. Files you choose to import, such as MIDI files, are processed by game features on your device and are not automatically uploaded to FFSKY servers.

We do not use Hanzi Bird to build personal profiles, deliver personalized ads, collect advertising identifiers or track you across other apps and websites. No analytics service automatically sends us your usage activity or diagnostic logs. If you choose to send logs, screenshots or saves when asking for help, we receive what you send.

3. Steam, Apple and platform features

The Steam edition reads information needed to operate, such as your SteamID and language, through Steam interfaces. Steam achievements, statistics and applicable cloud-save features may send account-related progress or saves to Valve; these features are not exclusively local.

The iOS/iPadOS edition uses Apple StoreKit for purchases and restoring purchases. The app receives transaction or entitlement status to confirm access to purchased content. We do not receive your card number or full payment details, and do not run a separate purchase-validation server.

Platform accounts, payments, cloud synchronization and diagnostics you enable through system or platform settings are handled by the relevant platform under its policy. You can manage available choices in that platform's settings.

4. Website, language preference and videos

The website has no account registration, advertising trackers, visitor profiling or analytics scripts. On your first visit it reads your browser's language settings locally. When you choose a language, it saves only the language code in your browser for future visits. Clear this site's browser data to remove that preference. We do not use our own advertising or analytics cookies.

Pages, fonts and thumbnail images do not automatically load the YouTube player. Selecting a video connects to a YouTube privacy-enhanced embed. YouTube may still receive your IP address, browser information and playback interactions, and use cookies or similar technologies under its policy. You can also watch directly on YouTube.

Hosting services process necessary network information such as IP addresses, request times and browser requests to deliver pages and protect the service, and may generate access or security logs. This is separate from our not installing visitor analytics. Log handling and retention depend on the hosting service's actual configuration and policy.

5. When you contact us or share

If you email ffskyteam@gmail.com, we receive your email address, message and any attachments you choose to provide. We use them to answer your inquiry, provide support or handle a collaboration you request. Our email provider processes these communications. Please avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information.

When you use system sharing, external search, MIDI websites, store links or social links, selected content or network requests go to the service you choose. You decide whether to continue sending, and the recipient's own privacy policy applies.

6. Use, sharing and retention

We do not sell personal information, or rent or share information you provide for cross-service targeted advertising. Information you submit is used for the relevant request. Necessary information may be processed by providers of email, hosting or platform services, and may be disclosed when required by law.

Where applicable data protection law requires a legal basis, we rely on legitimate interests in providing and protecting services and responding to requests, contractual obligations necessary to provide a service you request, or applicable legal obligations. Optional processing that requires consent will rely on your consent.

We retain communications you send only for as long as needed to handle the request, maintain necessary business records or meet legal obligations, then delete or anonymize them. Platforms and hosting providers manage retention of their own records. Device saves and browser preferences generally remain until you delete or reset them; platform backups and cloud saves may require separate deletion.

Providers may process information outside your region under their policies and applicable legal requirements. We use safeguards appropriate to the information processed, but no method of internet transmission or storage can be guaranteed completely secure.

7. Your choices and rights

You can clear this site's browser data, manage game saves on your device, and use Apple, Steam or other services to manage purchases, backups, cloud synchronization and privacy settings. Deleting local saves may be irreversible, so keep any backups you need. Removing local data does not necessarily remove platform cloud copies.

You can email us to ask about, correct or delete information you have sent us. Depending on applicable law, you may also have rights of access, restriction, objection, portability and withdrawal of consent. We respond within applicable legal time limits and, where needed, request only information necessary to verify the request. You may also complain to your local data protection authority.

Because we do not keep centrally uploaded game saves, we cannot delete records on your device or in your platform account by email. Use the relevant device or platform controls for those records.

8. Children's privacy

We do not knowingly request or collect personal information from children or build advertising profiles about them. If you believe a child has sent personal information to us by email, please tell us so we can investigate and delete information that does not need to be retained. Follow local requirements and platform parental controls when purchasing or using third-party services.

9. Third-party privacy policies

The policies below explain how the relevant services handle information. This policy does not replace their commitments or give us control over all of their processing.

10. Updates to this policy

We will update this page and its date when features or data practices change. For material changes requiring notice or consent, we will follow applicable requirements. You can contact us at the address below at any time.
