The short version
- Your counters are stored only on your device. We never receive them.
- There is no account, no sign-in, no advertising, and we never sell data.
- The Android version uses Google Analytics for Firebase to collect app usage statistics. The iOS version collects no usage data.
This policy explains how Scandreassen Technologies LLC ("we", "us") handles information in the Counter Clockwise mobile app for iOS and Android (the "app"). It does not cover other apps or websites, which have their own policies.
Information you create in the app
When you create a countdown or a streak, the app stores its name, description, date and when you created it. This information is saved in the app's private storage on your device. It is not sent to us or to anyone else, and we have no servers that receive it.
If your device backs up app data (for example iCloud Backup or Google's Android backup), your counters may be included in that backup. Backups are controlled by your device settings and stored in your own Apple or Google account; we cannot access them.
Usage statistics (Android only)
The Android version of the app includes Google Analytics for Firebase, a service provided by Google LLC. It automatically collects information about how the app is used, which helps us understand which features are used and find problems. This can include:
- app events such as the app being opened, updated or removed, and time spent in the app
- device information such as model, operating system version, language and screen size
- approximate location at the country or region level, derived from your IP address
- identifiers such as the app instance ID Firebase assigns to your installation and, where available, your device's advertising ID
It does not include the names, descriptions or dates of your counters. We use this information only in aggregate to improve the app. We do not use it for advertising, and we do not combine it with other information to identify you. Google processes it under theGoogle Privacy Policy; see also how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
On Android you can reset or delete your advertising ID in your device's Google settings. The iOS version of the app does not include Google Analytics or any other analytics or tracking software.
What we do not do
- We do not require or offer accounts, and we do not ask for your name, email or phone number in the app.
- We do not show ads.
- We do not sell or rent personal information, or share it for cross-app advertising.
- We do not access your contacts, photos, location services, camera or microphone.
Keeping and deleting your information
Counters stay on your device until you delete them. You can delete a single counter from its screen, or everything at once from Settings → Delete all counters. Uninstalling the app also removes all of its data from your device. Google keeps Firebase Analytics data according to the data-retention setting of the app's Google Analytics property.
Children
The app is a general-audience utility. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Your choices and rights
Because your counters never leave your device, you are always in control of them. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access or delete personal information about you. Email us and we will help, including with any request about analytics data on Android.
Changes to this policy
If we change how the app handles information, we will update this page and the date at the top before the change takes effect.
