Welcome to Alarm Clock ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency regarding how our mobile application operates.
This Privacy Policy describes how information is handled when you use the Alarm Clock mobile application. By using our application, you agree to the practices outlined in this policy.
Local-First Data Storage
All core data created within Alarm Clock—including your alarms, reminders, world clock timezones, stopwatch records, countdown timers, snooze settings, and custom labels—is stored strictly locally on your device's internal memory. We do not transmit, collect, or store your personal alarms or reminders on external cloud servers.
Optional After-Call Features
To support optional post-call productivity tools (allowing you to set quick alarms or notes right after a phone call), the app may request permission to inspect device call states.
All processing happens 100% locally on your device.
We do not record, upload, collect, or share your contact list, call history, phone numbers, or conversation details with any third party or remote server.
To deliver core alarm and clock functions, the application requests the following Android permissions:
Exact Alarm Permissions (SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM & USE_EXACT_ALARM): Required to trigger alarms at the exact scheduled second, even in power-saving mode.
Full Screen Intent (USE_FULL_SCREEN_INTENT): Required to display the full-screen alarm ringing screen over the lock screen so you can dismiss or snooze it easily.
Display Over Other Apps (SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW): Required to display quick timer pop-ups and reminder overlays over active applications.
Foreground Services (FOREGROUND_SERVICE & MEDIA_PLAYBACK): Ensures continuous alarm playback, sound streaming, and active stopwatch services without background interruption.
Notifications (POST_NOTIFICATIONS): Delivers notifications for upcoming alarms, active timers, missed alarms, and quick actions.
Vibrate & Wake Lock (VIBRATE & WAKE_LOCK): Enables device vibration and prevents the device processor from sleeping while an alarm is actively ringing.
Reboot Rescheduling (RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED): Automatically restores and reschedules your active alarms whenever your device restarts.
Network Access (INTERNET & ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE): Required for dynamic remote configuration and delivering advertisements.
We use trusted Google services to support app configuration, performance analytics, and advertising:
Google AdMob: We display advertisements via Google AdMob. AdMob may collect device identifiers (such as Android Advertising ID), approximate location, and ad interaction metrics to serve relevant ads in compliance with Google's advertising policies.
Firebase Services: We use Firebase Remote Config and Diagnostics to optimize app settings, feature availability, and app stability.
For more information on how Google processes data, please visit Google's Privacy Policy at:

Local Control: Because your alarm records and preferences exist solely on your device, you have complete control over your data.
Data Deletion: You can delete all locally stored app data at any time by clearing the application storage in your device settings or by uninstalling the application.
Security: All communication with third-party service providers (such as Google AdMob) is encrypted in transit using standard HTTPS/TLS protocols.
Our application does not knowingly collect personal identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so that we can take necessary actions.
You can manage your privacy preferences at any time:
You can grant or revoke optional app permissions through your device's Android Settings.
You can manage or reset your advertising identifier in your Android device settings under Google > Ads.
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted directly to this page. You are advised to review this policy periodically for updates.
