PRIVACY
This page covers Joustine on Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV). Other platforms: Amazon Fire · Android & Google TV · Roku
Joustine uses no private server and collects no user data.
Multiplayer experience is completely local. On Apple devices, game progress is stored on-device and in the user's iCloud account.
iPhone and iPad devices will prompt the user for permission to record the screen if a web-based client occupies a gameplay slot.
iPhone and iPad screen recording exists to facilitate video streaming to handheld clients when a shared screen experience is likely not available. It is assumed Mac and Apple TV host screens can be communal, and also requesting a screen recording of such screens will probably be perceived as a privacy violation. In the case iPhone or iPad records the display, that is restricted to Joustine app and never directed anywhere other than client devices on your LAN.
User accounts do not exist outside of Apple's App Store and iCloud infrastructure used to purchase subscriptions.
