How Maple Six handles your data

Last updated: August 21, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Maple Six ("the App," "we," "us") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our mobile application.

Maple Six is a Canadian 6/49-style lottery companion app that offers number generation suggestions, draw history, and personal ticket tracking. Maple Six is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any official lottery operator.

1. Information We Collect

Account information. When you create an account, we collect your email address and authentication credentials to identify you and secure your data.

Ticket and usage data you provide. If you use the "My Tickets" feature, we store the information you enter: game type, numbers, store/location text, and purchase date. This information is entered manually by you and is not verified against any purchase record.

Generated numbers and preferences. We store the number suggestions our algorithm generates for you, your selected game, language, and display preferences (e.g., font size), so your experience is consistent across sessions.

Subscription and purchase information. If you subscribe to Maple Six Premium, your purchase is processed entirely by Apple's App Store. We do not receive or store your payment card details. We (via our subscription-management provider, RevenueCat) receive limited transaction information — such as which product you purchased, purchase date, and subscription status — to determine your entitlement to premium features.

Camera and photos (optional). If you use the optional "Scan Ticket" feature, the App asks for camera or photo library permission so you can photograph a lottery ticket; the image is used only to read the numbers and purchase date off the ticket. You can decline the permission and enter tickets manually instead.

Notifications. If you enable draw reminders, we use your device's notification permissions to send you scheduled alerts.

Usage analytics. We collect basic, aggregated usage data (such as which pages/screens are visited) to understand how the app is used and to improve it.

Location (optional, on-device only). If you turn on "Use my location" in Settings, the App reads your device location — only while you use the App — to rank its built-in list of Canadian cities by distance and suggest a nearby place to buy a ticket. Your coordinates are processed entirely on your device: they are never stored, never uploaded, and never shared with us or any third party. This feature is off by default, and you can turn it off at any time in Settings or revoke the permission in iOS Settings. Location does not affect the numbers suggested and does not change lottery odds.

Information we do not collect. Beyond the optional on-device location use described above, we do not collect or transmit your location. Suggested "best time and location" content is otherwise generated from historical, publicly available draw data.

2. How We Use Information

Provide and maintain your account and app functionality
Save and sync your tickets, preferences, and generated numbers
Process and manage your Premium subscription and verify entitlement
Send draw reminders you've opted into
Understand app usage and improve features
Communicate with you about your account or respond to support requests
Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use your ticket or number data to influence, guarantee, or represent real lottery outcomes. Maple Six's suggestions are for entertainment purposes only.

3. How Information Is Shared

We share information only with the following categories of service providers, each of whom processes data on our behalf under their own security and privacy obligations:

Our hosted backend service — our application hosting and backend data platform, which stores your account and app data.
Apple (App Store / StoreKit) — processes all in-app purchase transactions.
RevenueCat — manages subscription status and entitlement verification; receives purchase/transaction metadata but not your payment details.

We do not share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes, and we do not sell your data. We may disclose information if required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of Maple Six, our users, or others.

4. Data Retention

We retain your account and app data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, your associated data is deleted from our systems, except where retention is required for legal, accounting, or fraud-prevention purposes.

5. Your Choices and Rights

Edit or delete your saved tickets at any time within the app
Disable draw reminder notifications at any time in Settings
Turn location use on or off at any time in Settings (it is off by default)
Delete your account, which permanently removes your account and associated data
Manage or cancel your subscription at any time via your Apple ID account settings (App Store subscriptions are managed by Apple, not by us)

6. Children's Privacy

Maple Six is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required by your local lottery regulations, which is typically 18+ for actual lottery participation), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.

7. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will update the "Last updated" date above when we do. Continued use of the app after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
