Summary

My PlayHome apps do not collect any personal information.

There are no 3rd party advertisements, links to web sites or any social media.

Some basic usage information is sent to Microsoft App Center. This information contains what type of device you are using and information for our programmers in the event that the app crashes. We use this information exclusively to track down problems with the app. However, to repeat, no personal information is transmitted or stored for this.

The app also contacts our server to get an image with news about our other apps. The only data that is sent to our servers is which of our apps you currently have installed in order that we don't send an advertisement for a My PlayHome app that you already have.

There now follows a more formal statement for those of you that like legalise.
