Privacy Policy
Last Updated: June 06, 2026
Introduction and Scope
Welcome to Alarm Clock, a simple and reliable alarm clock app with stopwatch, world clock, snooze, and other alarm tools, developed by Cyber Magic.
This Privacy Policy explains how we handle any information related to your use of the Alarm Clock Android app. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent. The app is designed so that we do not collect any personal data from you. All your alarms, settings, and data are stored locally on your device.
This policy applies to the Alarm Clock app available on Google Play. It complies with Google Play Developer Program Policies, GDPR (for EU users), CCPA/CPRA (for California users), and CalOPPA.
Information We Collect
We do not collect, store, or process any personal information such as your name, email, phone number, location, or any other identifiable data.
You do not need to create an account or sign in to use the app. Any data recovery or backup operations happen locally on your device. The only information the app works with is generated locally (your set alarms, stopwatch records, etc.) and never leaves your device through our application.
Legal Bases for Processing (GDPR)
Since we do not collect or process personal data, most GDPR requirements for processing do not apply. Where limited, non-personal technical data may be handled by third-party SDKs (such as crash reports or analytics), our legal basis is legitimate interest — to maintain app stability, improve user experience, and provide reliable alarm functionality.
Permissions We Use in Our App and Why
Alarm Clock requires certain Android permissions to deliver its core features. Here is a clear explanation of each:
POST_NOTIFICATIONS: Used to send timely notifications for alarms, timers, and important events so you never miss them.
SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW: Allows the app to show alarm overlays or floating windows on top of other apps, ensuring you see critical alerts.
VIBRATE: Enables vibration alerts for alarms and timers, providing tactile feedback even in silent mode.
RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: Restarts your scheduled alarms automatically after the device reboots.
USE_FULL_SCREEN_INTENT: Displays alarms in full-screen mode (even on locked devices) for maximum visibility.
SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM and USE_EXACT_ALARM: Ensures alarms trigger at the exact specified time without system delays.
WAKE_LOCK: Keeps the device awake during an active alarm so the sound or notification is not interrupted.
FOREGROUND_SERVICE and FOREGROUND_SERVICE_SPECIAL_USE: Runs essential alarm services with higher priority in the background.
DISABLE_KEYGUARD: Temporarily dismisses the lock screen when an alarm goes off so you can interact with it immediately.
REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS: Requests exemption from battery optimizations so alarms remain reliable.
You can review and manage these permissions anytime in your device Settings → Apps → Alarm Clock.
Data Storage and Security
All app data (alarms, settings, etc.) is stored locally on your device using secure local storage technologies. We do not upload or transmit your data to our servers.
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the app, but we cannot guarantee 100% security against all possible threats. You are responsible for keeping your device secure.
Third-Party Libraries & SDKs Used in Our App
We use the following libraries and SDKs to provide a smooth, stable, and feature-rich experience. None of them are used to collect personal data from the app itself:
Lottie (Airbnb): Renders beautiful, lightweight animations. Lottie Privacy Policy
Firebase (Google): Includes Firebase BoM, Crashlytics, Messaging, and Analytics. Used for crash reporting, push notifications (if enabled), and anonymous usage analytics to improve the app. Firebase Privacy Policy
Gson (Google): Handles JSON data conversion internally.
Room (Android Jetpack): Provides efficient local database storage for your alarms and settings.
Hilt (Google): Simplifies dependency management in the code.
SDP & SSP (Intuit): Ensures the UI scales properly on all screen sizes.
Glide: Loads and caches images efficiently (used for app assets).
All data handled by these libraries stays local where possible, or is limited to non-personal technical information (such as anonymous crash logs).
Advertising, Analytics, and Tracking Technologies
The app shows ads served by Google AdMob, AdX, and Facebook (Meta) Audience Network. These may use device advertising identifiers and other non-personal data to show relevant ads.
We use Firebase Analytics to understand how users interact with the app anonymously, which helps us improve features and fix issues.
You can opt out of personalized ads through your device settings (Google Ads Settings or Facebook settings). For more details:
Cookies and Similar Technologies
The app does not use traditional web cookies. Third-party advertising and analytics services may use similar technologies (such as advertising IDs) on their end. These are managed according to their own policies.
Detailed Information on the Processing of Your Personal Data
We do not collect or process personal data. Any limited technical data sent to Firebase or ad networks is anonymous or pseudonymized and used only for the purposes described above.
Data Retention and Deletion
Since data is stored locally, it remains on your device until you uninstall the app or manually clear the app data. Uninstalling the app removes all associated local data from your device.
Payment Terms and In-App Purchases
The app offers in-app purchases and subscriptions.
All payments and subscriptions are handled safely by Google Play Billing. We do not collect, store, or see your payment details such as card information or Google account passwords.
Subscriptions: Renew automatically unless cancelled before the next billing date. Manage or cancel anytime in your Google Play account settings. You keep premium features until the end of the current billing period.
Purchase Information: Google may share limited, non-personal information (such as subscription status) with us so we can enable premium features.
Refunds & Cancellations: All refund requests go through Google Play following their rules.
Third-Party Sharing: We do not share your purchase information with any third parties except as required by Google for payment processing.
All transactions follow Google Play Terms of Service and Google Privacy Policy.
User Rights Under GDPR
Even though we collect no personal data, you have the following rights (where applicable):
Access: Request information about any data we might hold by contacting us.
Correction / Deletion: Manage data locally or uninstall the app.
Objection / Restriction: Manage app permissions in device settings.
To exercise these rights, contact us at the email below.
User Rights Under CCPA/CPRA
California residents have rights to know, delete, and opt-out of the sale of personal information. Since we do not collect or sell personal information, these rights are largely not applicable, but you can still contact us with any questions.
“Do Not Track” (CalOPPA)
Our app does not track users across websites or services in a way that would respond to Do Not Track signals. You can limit tracking through device advertising settings and permission controls.
International Data Transfers
Any limited technical data sent to Firebase or ad providers may be transferred and processed in the United States or other countries. These companies maintain appropriate safeguards and comply with applicable data protection laws.
Protection from Malware and Network Misuse
We do not engage in any malware distribution, unauthorized network access, or misuse of user data. The app is built to respect Android security best practices.
Links to Other Websites and Apps
The app may contain links to third-party sites or services (for example, privacy policies). We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Please review their policies before using them.
Children’s Privacy
Alarm Clock is not targeted at or intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
Compliance with Legal Obligations and Law Enforcement
We may disclose limited information if required by law, court order, or government request, but only to the extent legally necessary.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. The “Last Updated” date at the top will be changed. We recommend reviewing it periodically. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
