Quiz United
Privacy Policy
In short: Quiz United has no accounts and we don’t collect your name, email or contacts. Your progress and stats stay on your phone. The app downloads football news questions from our server, and shows ads from Google, which uses data as described below and only personalises ads when you agree.
Who we are
Quiz United is a football quiz app made by Håkon Bergland Brugård, an independent developer, who is responsible for the processing described here (the “data controller”). Contact: privacy@quizunited.app.
Data that stays on your device
The app saves the following only on your phone, so you can pick up where you left off. We never receive it, and deleting the app deletes it:
- your current round, your settings and which questions you’ve already seen;
- your statistics, best scores and Daily Challenge results and streaks;
- the downloaded football news questions;
- whether you have Quiz United Pro (if you buy it).
Downloading news questions
To get new football news questions, the app downloads files from our server, which is hosted by Cloudflare. As with any website, the request reveals your IP address and basic technical information (such as the app making the request). We don’t use this to identify you or build a profile; Cloudflare processes it to deliver and protect the service, as described in Cloudflare’s privacy policy. We rely on our legitimate interest in providing the app’s content.
Advertising (Google AdMob)
The free version of the app shows ads from Google AdMob. To show ads, measure them and prevent fraud, Google’s software in the app may collect your IP address, an advertising or device identifier, approximate location derived from your IP address, and information about how you interact with ads. This is Google’s processing, described in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and Google’s privacy policy.
- In the EEA (including Norway), the UK and Switzerland, the app asks for your consent before ads are loaded. Ads are only personalised if you agree. You can change your choice at any time under Settings → Ad privacy choices in the app.
- On iPhone and iPad, the app does not ask to track you across other companies’ apps and websites, and requests non-personalised ads only.
- Buying Quiz United Pro removes all ads.
Purchases
If you buy Quiz United Pro, the payment is handled entirely by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play). We never see your payment details; we only learn that the purchase is active, so the app can remove ads and restore the purchase on your other devices.
Sharing your results
When you tap Share, the app passes a short text with your score and a link to our website to your phone’s share menu. Where it goes is up to you; we don’t see it.
Links and photos
Photo credits and question sources open web pages (for example Wikimedia Commons) in your browser. Those sites have their own privacy policies.
What we don’t do
- No accounts, no sign-in and no collection of your name, email address or contacts.
- No analytics or tracking tools of our own.
- We don’t sell your data.
Children
Quiz United is a general-audience app and is not directed at children under 13. We don’t knowingly collect personal data from children.
Your rights
Under the GDPR and similar laws you can ask for access to, correction or deletion of your personal data, object to processing and withdraw consent. As we don’t hold personal data about you ourselves, most requests concern Google’s ad processing: you can withdraw ad consent in the app at any time, and Google explains how to exercise your rights with it in its privacy policy. You’re welcome to contact us at privacy@quizunited.app, and you have the right to complain to a data protection authority; in Norway, that is Datatilsynet.
Changes to this policy
If the app starts handling data differently, we’ll update this page and the date at the top before the change takes effect.
