Privacy policy

HotShot Darts · Last updated 15 October 2026

HotShot Darts is made by Kwixa Ltd (“we”), a company registered in England and Wales. This policy explains what the HotShot Darts app does with your data. The short version: nothing leaves your device.

Data we collect

None. HotShot Darts does not collect, transmit or store personal data. There is no account of ours, no analytics SDK, no advertising SDK, no crash-reporting SDK, and the app makes no network requests to any server of ours. The App Store privacy label is “Data Not Collected”. The only online features are Apple’s own, described below.

Data stored on your device

Everything the app knows is stored locally on your device in the app’s private storage: the players’ names you type in, your settings, match history, each player’s lifetime stats (averages, checkout percentage, 180s and the like) and your practice bests. It is included in your iCloud device backup if you have backups on. Deleting the app deletes it. We cannot see it.

Game Center and iCloud

HotShot Darts has three optional Game Center leaderboards for the practice games: 121, around the clock and the doubles ladder. Game Center is Apple’s service: your Apple ID, player name and scores are handled by Apple under Apple’s privacy policy, and we never receive them. If you dismiss the Game Center sign-in, the app works exactly the same and nothing is posted.

Your player roster, lifetime stats and practice bests are also copied to your own iCloud account (key-value storage) so a new iPhone picks up where you left off. Match history is not copied; it stays on the device it was scored on. That iCloud copy is in your iCloud, not on any server of ours, and is controlled by iCloud in iOS Settings. Purchases are never stored in iCloud.

Purchases

In-app purchases (“Unlock Everything”, “Tip the dev”) are processed by Apple through the App Store. Apple’s privacy policy applies to the transaction. We receive no personal information about purchasers; the app only stores a local flag that the purchase was made, which “Restore purchases” re-derives from your Apple ID.

Apple’s own analytics

If you have opted in to share analytics with app developers in iOS Settings, Apple provides us aggregated, anonymous statistics (installs, crashes, sessions) through App Store Connect. We cannot identify you from these. You can opt out in Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements.

Children

HotShot Darts is rated 4+ and collects no data from anyone, including children.

Changes

If a future version adds anything that touches data beyond Apple’s Game Center and iCloud, this page and the App Store privacy label will change first, and the feature will be off by default.
