Privacy Policy for Yawn Dawn
Effective date: July 9 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how the Yawn Dawn app ("Yawn Dawn", "we", "us", or "our") handles your information. By downloading or using the app, you agree to this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.
Summary
Your sleep and health data stay on your device. We do not require an account, and we do not upload, sell, or rent your personal or health information.
Information the app can access on your device
With your permission, Yawn Dawn may access the following only to provide its features. You control each permission and can change it at any time in your device Settings.
Apple Health and health data. If you connect Apple Health, the app reads sleep, steps, exercise, workouts, heart rate, time in daylight, and related metrics to build your sleep history and energy insights. The app reads this data only and never writes changes to Health. This information is processed and stored on your device.
Motion and step activity. If you do not use a wearable, the app can estimate your nights from your phone's overnight step and movement data. This is processed on your device.
Calendar. If you allow calendar access, the app reads your events to show them alongside your energy map. You may also choose to write energy blocks to your calendar. This is optional.
Microphone. If you enable sound based sleep detection, the microphone is used to score overnight noise levels only. Audio is never recorded, saved, or transmitted.
Data stored on your device
Your sleep sessions, settings, habits, and insights are stored locally on your device using standard on device storage. Removing the app removes this data. You can also erase all data from within the app.
Anonymous usage and diagnostic data
To understand how features are used and to improve the app, we collect limited, anonymous usage and diagnostic events (for example, that a screen was viewed or a feature was used), along with a randomly generated installation identifier, your device platform, and the app version. This information is not linked to your name or identity, and it does not include your sleep, health, calendar, or audio data.
Purchases
Subscriptions and any purchases are processed by Apple. We do not receive or store your payment card details. Please review Apple's privacy policy for how Apple handles purchase information.
Third parties
The app relies on platform services such as Apple (App Store, in app purchases, and Apple Health) and on the anonymous analytics described above. We do not sell or rent your personal information to anyone.
Children
Yawn Dawn is not directed to children under the age required by your local law to consent to data processing, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information, contact us and we will address it.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect your information. However, no method of storage or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your choices
You can grant or revoke Health, Calendar, Microphone, and Motion permissions at any time in your device Settings. You can erase your data within the app. Disabling permissions may limit certain features.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes take effect when the updated policy is posted here, and your continued use of the app means you accept the changes.
Disclaimer and no responsibility
The app is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or reliability. Yawn Dawn provides general wellness and sleep information only. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any condition or disease. Any decisions you make based on the app are your own responsibility. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we assume no responsibility and shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential loss or damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, the app or from reliance on any information it provides. If you have concerns about your sleep or health, consult a qualified professional.
