Our House for iPhone · Last updated 8 November 2026

Our House is a game for couples. It keeps your game on your iPhone and in your own iCloud account. We don’t run any servers for your game, and we never see, collect, sell or share anything you put into the game. If the app crashes, it sends us a crash report (see below).

What the game stores

• The names and avatars you choose for the two players.
• Your progress: hearts, cleared floors and the card you’re playing.
• Cards you write, your This week list, and keepsakes you save to Our House.

These are saved on your iPhone. If you’re signed in to iCloud, they’re also saved in your iCloud account through Apple’s CloudKit, so your game survives a new phone or a reinstall. That copy is stored by Apple under Apple’s privacy policy, in your private iCloud space, which we can’t read.

Playing on two phones

If you invite your partner, Apple’s iCloud sharing gives their Apple Account access to that one game — the same information listed above — so you can play on two phones. You choose who to invite. Either of you can stop sharing at any time from the game’s Settings, and the shared game is then removed from your partner’s phone.

“Ready to play” notifications

On two phones, either of you can let the other know you’re ready to play: with the button on the House screen, by starting a floor on two phones, or with a reminder while the game waits for your partner. That nudge is a small note in your shared game in iCloud, holding your player name and the floor that’s next, and Apple’s iCloud and push notification service deliver it to your partner’s iPhone as a notification. It only appears if your partner turned on Tell me when … wants to play in the game and allowed notifications. We don’t send or see these notifications, and you can turn them off in the game or in the iPhone Settings app.

Voice memos

On two phones, you can play Floor 2 by leaving each other voice memos. The game uses your iPhone’s microphone only while you’re recording one, and asks your permission the first time. Each memo is saved in your shared game in iCloud, where only the two of you can hear it, and it stays there as a keepsake until you delete it or erase the game. We never receive or hear your memos.

Crash reports

When the app crashes or hits an error, it sends a technical report to Sentry, a crash-reporting service, so we can fix the problem. The report holds the error, the app version, and your iPhone model and iOS version. The intended content is technical crash information, not game content. Filtering is incomplete: identifiers can remain in unhandled SDK fields and error text. We do not request advertising identifiers or use reports for tracking. Server-side IP retention has not been independently verified for this candidate. We don’t collect usage, performance or session data. Reports are filtered on the phone, but filtering is best effort: the app drops the error’s free-text description and attached crash messages and keeps only listed technical codes, yet thread names, file paths, loaded-library lists and other report fields are not filtered, so something we didn’t anticipate could still be included. This website sends the same kind of report if one of its pages has a script error.

This website

ourhousegame.com is hosted by Vercel. Besides crash reports, the site uses Vercel’s first-party Web Analytics and Speed Insights so we can see which pages are visited and how fast they feel. They don’t use advertising cookies, don’t follow you across other sites, and don’t identify you as a person. They may record the page you opened, a rough location from your network, your browser and device type, and how the page performed. This is only for the website, not for the iPhone game.

What we don’t do

• No accounts, sign-ups or passwords.
• No analytics, advertising or tracking in the iPhone game. The only third-party code in the game is Sentry crash reporting, described above.
• No location, contacts, photos or camera, and the microphone only while you record a voice memo.

Deleting your game

In the game, open Players & settings → Erase everything to remove your game from your iPhone and from iCloud. You can also remove the game’s iCloud data in the iPhone Settings app: tap your name, then iCloud → Manage Account Storage.

Children

Our House is made for adult couples and isn’t directed at children.

Changes

If this policy changes, we’ll update this page and the date at the top.
