BrainBreak ("we", "the app") is a digital wellbeing tool that helps you set daily limits on apps you choose. This policy explains what data the app processes and how it is used.

Summary

• BrainBreak works entirely on your device.

• We do not operate backend servers for core features.

• We do not sell your personal data.

• We do not use third-party analytics or advertising SDKs in the app.

Data the app processes

1. Apps you choose to track

• What: App names and package names of apps you add to your list.

• Why: To show your dashboard and enforce limits you configure.

• Storage: Local database on your device (brainbreak.db).

2. App usage time

• What: How long selected apps run in the foreground (via Android Usage Access).

• Why: To detect when you reach your daily limit and trigger reminders or blocks.

• Storage: Calculated on device; not uploaded to our servers.

3. Your settings

• What: Daily limits, block duration, enabled/disabled toggles, premium status flag.

• Why: To apply your preferences and restore state after restart.

• Storage: Local database and encrypted preferences on device.

4. Subscription status

• What: Whether you have an active Google Play subscription.

• Why: To unlock Premium features.

• Processing: Verified through Google Play Billing on your device. Payment details are handled by Google, not by us.

Data sharing

We do not share your usage data with third parties for marketing.

The only external service involved in normal use is Google Play (for subscriptions and app distribution), governed by Google's Privacy Policy.

Data retention and deletion

All app data stays on your device until you:

• Clear app data in Android Settings → Apps → BrainBreak → Storage → Clear data, or

• Uninstall the app.

We do not retain copies on our servers because we do not collect this data centrally.

Backup

BrainBreak excludes its local database and premium preferences from Android cloud backup to reduce accidental restore of block state on a new device.

Children

BrainBreak is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes

We may update this policy. The "Last updated" date will change when we do. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated policy.
