Privacy Policy for Jaw Reminder
Last Updated: October 8, 2026
iOS Version (Apple App Store)
The iOS version of Jaw Reminder contains no advertising, analytics or third-party services of any kind, including Google AdMob. It does not collect, transmit or share any personal or device information, and it does not use an advertising identifier. Your settings (quiet hours, reminder frequency and tip position) are stored only on your device, and reminders are delivered as local notifications scheduled entirely on your device. Deleting the app removes all of its data. The sections below marked "Android only" apply only to the Android version.

Your continued use of the app after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
Data Retention
Local Data: Settings and preferences remain on your device until you uninstall the app or clear app data
