Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 2026

Apps From Outer Space, LLC ("AFOS," "we," "us") develops apps for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and Apple Vision Pro. This policy explains how we handle information across all of our apps and our website (appsfromouterspace.com).

The Short Version

Most of our apps collect no data at all. The ones that do collect only what's needed for a specific feature (like a leaderboard name). We never sell your data. We never will.

Information Our Apps May Collect

Apps that collect no data

TimeCube Spatial Clock, Graph Grid, Cone of Shame, Backdrop, Pond Fishing, Letters + Words, Grammar Snob, Grammar Snob 2, Friends Everywhere.

Apps that may collect limited data

  • CryptoQuote — If you participate in Game Center leaderboards, your Game Center display name is visible to other players. Daily Challenge scores are submitted through Game Center.
  • Googly Eyes — The app accesses your camera and photo library to add effects to images. Photos are processed entirely on your device. No images are uploaded to any server. If you use in-app purchases, the transaction is handled entirely by Apple — we never see your payment information.
  • Flashlight — The app may display ads via Google AdMob. AdMob may collect device identifiers and usage data for ad targeting and measurement, as described in Google's privacy policy. We do not receive personally identifiable information from ads.

Information We Use Without Collecting

Some apps access device capabilities without transmitting data:

  • Camera and Photos — Googly Eyes accesses your camera and photo library locally. Images are never uploaded.
  • Face detection — Googly Eyes uses on-device face detection to place effects. Face data is processed locally and is never stored or transmitted.
  • Contacts — Friends Everywhere reads the contacts you choose to give it, to suggest someone to reach out to and to show your friends under the names you've saved for them. Your contacts stay on your device and are never transmitted to us.
  • Your iCloud — Posts and photos you create in Friends Everywhere are stored in your own iCloud account and shared read-only, through Apple's CloudKit sharing, with the individual people you invite. We operate no server and no database for this app, so your posts never pass through anything we run and we cannot read them. You can see every follower and revoke any of them at any time. To let friends recognize you, the phone numbers or email addresses you choose to share are hashed on your device before being written to your shared feed.
