Privacy Policy

Who stands behind the app

Fluxen is made and published by AM Properties d.o.o., a company registered in Slovenia, which releases its software under the name FrostHarbor Labs. Should the app ever process personal data, that company would be the controller under the General Data Protection Regulation. It does not, so the designation remains theoretical.

Motion is read, not recorded

The sandbox responds to tilt, which means the app reads the handset's accelerometer while a scene is on screen. Each reading feeds one frame of the simulation and is then gone — no trace is written to storage, no pattern of how you move or hold the phone is assembled, and nothing is transmitted anywhere. Android treats the accelerometer as a sensor requiring no permission, and the app asks for none.

Touch works the same way: where you drag is used to push the fluid in that instant, and nothing about it is kept afterwards.

What the settings file contains

One small file sits in the app's private storage so that your preferred setup survives closing the app:

• The substance, scene and colour theme you last used.
• Physics values you have tuned — gravity, viscosity, bounce, stickiness — and any obstacles placed in a scene.
• Presets you have saved, under the names you gave them.
• Your language choice, and settings such as sound and haptics.

A preset name is free text, so it is worth saying plainly: whatever you type there stays on the handset, is never uploaded and is never read by us. Nothing in the file identifies you — no contact details, no location, no advertising or device identifier.

The simulation runs where you are

Every particle is computed on the device, frame by frame, by the app itself. Nothing is streamed in, no scene is fetched, no configuration is pulled from a server and no rendering is done remotely. That is also why the app works the same in a tunnel as it does on wi-fi.

Left out on purpose

There is no advertising library, so no advert interrupts a scene and no advertising profile is built from your use. There is no analytics library and no crash reporter, so no usage events, session logs or crash traces are collected or sent — we do not know which substances you favour or how long you play with them. There is no billing library, so no theme, scene or preset slot is for sale and no payment data exists anywhere in the app. There is no account and no sharing.

Beyond the accelerometer described above, Fluxen requests no Android runtime permissions: not camera, microphone, location, contacts, storage or notifications.

Google Play is the only other party

Installing or updating Fluxen is a transaction between you and Google, governed by Google's own privacy policy and its agreement with you. What reaches us is the aggregated, anonymous developer console view — installs, ratings, country totals — none of which identifies a person.

If a future release ever touches the network for any reason, this page will be rewritten before that release is published, and the change stated plainly.

Younger users

Fluxen has no goal, no text to read and nothing to win, which makes it about as safe a thing as a phone can offer a child. Since it collects no personal data from anyone, it collects none from children, and there is no advert, no chat, no sharing, no link out of the app and nothing to buy.

If a parent, guardian or teacher notices behaviour that differs from this description, write in and we will check it.

Your rights, and removing the file

Under the General Data Protection Regulation and Slovenia's Personal Data Protection Act (ZVOP-2) you may ask whether your personal data is processed, obtain a copy, have it corrected or erased, restrict or object to processing, and complain to a supervisory authority. Each right needs data to act upon; we hold none of yours, and will confirm that in writing on request.

The settings file on the handset is the only thing in existence, and it is entirely yours: clear the presets in the app, clear the app's data in Android settings, or uninstall Fluxen and it disappears with it.

Complaints can go to the Information Commissioner of the Republic of Slovenia (Informacijski pooblaščenec, ip-rs.si) or to the authority where you live, though a message to us is usually the faster route.

Amendments and contact

This page is revised only when the app changes in a way that affects privacy, and the date above moves with it. Versions already installed continue to behave exactly as described here.

Anything at all — a scene that stutters, a preset that will not save, a privacy question: flow@amproperties.forum, read by the developer, usually answered within a couple of days. Pišete lahko tudi v slovenščini.
