Payday Panic · Legal
Privacy Policy
Last updated September 20, 2026
This policy explains how Payday Panic handles your information. No account is required. The game and its service providers process pseudonymous gameplay, purchase, device and advertising data as described below.
The short version
No account required. No sign-up, no login, no profile. We don't ask for your name, email, or contacts. Your game progress is stored on your own device.
Information we do not collect
- We do not require or create user accounts.
- We do not ask for your name, email address, phone number, or location.
- We do not sell your personal information. We never have and never will.
Information handled by the game
- On-device game data. Your progress, settings and unlocks are saved locally on your device (and in your private iCloud backup if you have that enabled). We can't read it.
- Product analytics. We use PostHog in the European Union to measure gameplay, progression, purchases, optional ad interactions and diagnostics. Events include an installation identifier and basic device context, such as app and iOS versions and language. These records are pseudonymous, not anonymous. We do not associate them with your name or Apple ID.
Apple services
- In-app purchases. Payment is handled entirely by Apple. We never see or store your card or billing details. We process verified product and transaction identifiers to provide purchases, and record purchase price and currency for revenue analytics when analytics are enabled.
- Game Center / leaderboards. If you choose to use leaderboards or achievements, that feature is provided by Apple Game Center under Apple's own privacy policy. We only see anonymized scores and the nickname you chose there.
Advertising
Payday Panic has no forced ads. Version 1.5 offers optional Unity Ads videos for overtime earnings, a daily cash bonus or extra stamina. You can play without watching them. We configure Unity Ads for non-behavioral advertising, with advertising consent disabled and data-sale opt-out enabled. We do not request tracking permission or access IDFA.
Unity may process IP address and approximate location, device and installation identifiers, device and app context, purchase and usage data, ad interactions and performance data for ad delivery, measurement, security, fraud prevention and service improvement. Some data is linked to device identifiers. See Unity's privacy policy for its processing and privacy choices. Earlier releases may contain Google AdMob; version 1.5 uses Unity Ads only.
Service providers
These providers process data to run the features described above:
- Apple — app distribution, in-app purchases and Game Center (privacy policy).
- PostHog - pseudonymous product analytics (privacy policy).
- Google AdMob - advertising in earlier releases only (privacy policy).
- Unity Ads — optional rewarded ads (privacy policy).
Children
Payday Panic is not directed at children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can investigate and address it.
Data retention & security
We retain analytics only as needed to improve and maintain the game, subject to deletion requests and applicable obligations. We apply reasonable security measures. Providers retain data according to their policies. Deleting the app removes local progress, not records already sent to service providers.
Your choices
- There is no account to delete — uninstalling the app removes your local data.
- You can disable gameplay analytics in the game's Settings. This stops future analytics collection, but does not delete earlier records.
- You may decline every rewarded video. Unity's privacy choices are described in its policy above.
- Contact us to request access, correction or deletion of your data. We may need your installation identifier to locate pseudonymous records. Depending on your location, you may also have rights to restrict or object to processing and to complain to your data protection authority.
Changes
If we update this policy we'll change the date at the top. Continued use of the game after an update means you accept the revised policy.
