Effective Date: 01 Oct 2025
Last Updated: 20 Oct 2025

Thank you for using MicroPause — your daily reset companion.
Your privacy is important to us, and this Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our app.


1. Information We Collect

MicroPause is designed to be privacy-friendly and lightweight. We collect only the minimal data required to make the app function smoothly.

a) Data You Provide

  • Preferences: Break duration, notification frequency, theme choice, and sound settings are stored locally on your device.

  • Usage Stats: Number of breaks taken or streaks — stored locally, not on any server.

b) Automatically Collected Data

  • Device Information: Basic information like device model, OS version, and app version (for crash analytics if enabled).

  • Notifications Permission: Used only to schedule reminders; no personal data is transmitted.

  • Analytics: Only anonymous, aggregated data is collected — such as app usage frequency or crash reports — to improve performance and usability.


2. How We Use Your Information

We use your data strictly for:

  • Delivering core app functionality (notifications, preferences, and streak tracking).

  • Improving the app experience (via anonymous analytics).

  • Ensuring app stability and performance.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with any third party.


3. Data Storage and Security

  • All user preferences and streaks are stored locally on your device.

  • No personal or sensitive data is transmitted to external servers.

  • Notifications are used, and data remains anonymous and follows their respective privacy policies.

We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data from unauthorized access or disclosure.


4. Permissions Used

  • Notifications: To remind you to take micro-breaks.

  • Local Storage: To save your streaks and settings.

  • Analytics: To collect anonymous usage metrics.

We do not request access to contacts, location, camera, microphone, or files.


5. Third-Party Services

The app integrates with third-party SDKs such as Firebase; their privacy policies apply in addition to ours: Firebase Privacy Policy


6. Children’s Privacy

MicroPause is not intended for children under 13.
We do not knowingly collect any personal data from children.


7. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access and view the data stored on your device.

  • Delete all app data by uninstalling the app.

  • Opt out of analytics or notifications via the Settings screen.
