1.2 Boyfriend Clock is an AI-powered alarm clock application that wakes users with personalized voice messages from virtual AI boyfriend companions. We understand the personal nature of this service and have designed our privacy practices with your data protection as our highest priority.

1.3 This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the App, regardless of geographic location. If you are located in the European Union, United Kingdom, California, or other jurisdictions with specific privacy laws, additional rights and protections apply to you as described in Sections 9.0 and 10.0.

2.0 INFORMATION WE COLLECT

2.1 INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE DIRECTLY

2.1.1 Display Name (Optional)

You may provide a display name for personalization of AI-generated messages. This name is used so your AI boyfriend can address you personally in wake-up messages. You are not required to use your real name.

2.1.2 Custom AI Companion Personas

If you create custom AI boyfriend personas, we store the names, personality descriptions, avatar selections, and voice preferences you provide. This data is stored locally on your device.

2.1.3 Alarm Preferences

Your alarm settings including scheduled times, repeat patterns, selected boyfriends, message tones, topics, and customization options. This data is stored locally and may be synced to our servers for alarms requiring background processing.

2.2 INFORMATION COLLECTED AUTOMATICALLY

2.2.1 Device Identifier

A unique identifier generated by your device (Apple's Identifier for Vendor) used to manage your alarms and deliver notifications. This identifier is reset if you uninstall and reinstall the App. We do not use persistent advertising identifiers.

2.2.2 Generated Audio Files

AI-generated voice messages are created when your alarms are scheduled to trigger. These audio files are stored locally on your device and temporarily on our servers for delivery purposes. Server-stored audio is automatically deleted after 24 hours.

2.2.3 App Usage Data

Basic information about how you interact with the App, stored locally on your device. This includes alarm history and message playback. We do not use third-party analytics services.

2.3 INFORMATION COLLECTED WITH YOUR PERMISSION

2.3.2 Calendar Data (Optional)

If you enable the schedule feature, we access your calendar event titles and times to include relevant schedule information in your AI messages. Calendar data is read-only and NOT stored on our servers. We only access event titles and times; we do not access event notes, attendees, locations, or other details.
