Privacy policy
Last updated November 6, 2026
Any War is a squad tactics game for iPhone, iPad and Mac. It has no accounts, no advertising and no analytics. This policy explains the few times the game talks to the internet.
What stays on your device
Your progress, settings, unlocked battles and purchase status are stored on your device. We can't see them. Deleting the app removes them.
Anywhere on Earth
When you search for a place to fight over, the name you type is sent to find it, and the game then downloads the map data for that area. It asks the Any War maps relay first: a small server we run that passes the request on to OpenStreetMap's place search (Nominatim) and map servers (Overpass), and keeps a copy of the answer so the next player who picks the same place gets it faster. If the relay is slow or down, the game asks OpenStreetMap's servers directly. Satellite imagery tiles come from Esri.
These requests contain the place or map area you chose and the normal technical details of any internet request, such as your network address. They contain no name, account or identifier from us. The relay keeps the map answers, not who asked for them; it holds your network address in memory for about a minute to stop any one device flooding it, and does not write it down. The relay is hosted by Railway, which may keep short-lived technical logs. OpenStreetMap and Esri are run by others under their own privacy policies.
The historic battles and campaigns play offline and send nothing.
Multiplayer
Online play uses Apple's Game Center. Apple matches you with an opponent and carries the game moves between the two devices. Your Game Center name is shown to your opponent. Game Center is covered by Apple's privacy policy.
Purchases
Purchases and free trials are handled by Apple through the App Store. We never see your card details or Apple ID. The game only learns whether a purchase is active.
What we never do
- No accounts and no sign-in.
- No advertising, analytics or crash-reporting tools in the game.
- No tracking across other apps or websites.
- No selling or sharing of personal information.
This website
This website (not the game) counts page visits and taps on the App Store button with LastLap's own analytics, so we can see which pages bring players. It uses no cookies and stores nothing on your device, records no name or account, and honours your browser's Do Not Track setting.
Children
Any War is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from anyone.
Changes
If this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it. Significant changes will also be shown in the app.
