Privacy Policy
Effective October 13, 2026
Overview
Lava Play, formerly Lava Pulse, is an interactive digital lava lamp. No account is required.
Lava Play does not include advertising or third-party analytics trackers. We do not sell your personal information or use it for targeted advertising.
Saved lamps and preferences
Your selected color, visual style, and saved lamps, including their names, are stored on your device. They are not sent to us, and Lava Play does not provide cloud sync.
This data remains until you change or delete it. Use a saved lamp's trash button to remove it, or delete the app and its data to clear all local settings. Offloading the app keeps its data.
Device backups may contain app data, depending on your settings. Manage those copies through your backup provider.
Microphone access
When you turn on Sound Reactive Lava, the app requests microphone permission if needed. It analyzes live audio in memory on your device to make the lava respond to your voice and nearby sounds.
Audio is not recorded or uploaded. Turning off Sound Reactive Lava stops microphone access. You can also revoke permission in your device's Settings.
Tilt and motion input
Lava Play uses device orientation to steer the lava, requesting permission where required. Motion input is processed on your device in real time, without being saved or sent to us.
In-app purchases
Apple processes Lava Play's optional one-time purchase. The app uses Apple's StoreKit service to check purchase status and restore access. Deleting the app does not delete Apple's purchase records.
We do not receive your payment card details. Apple's handling of purchase and account information is described in Apple's Privacy Policy.
Website
The public Lava Play support and privacy website is hosted by GitHub Pages. We do not add analytics or tracking cookies to the website. GitHub logs visitors' IP addresses for security purposes and may process other technical information as described in GitHub's Privacy Statement.

Changes
This policy may be updated as Lava Play changes. The effective date above will be updated when changes are made.
