Privacy Policy for Tock
Effective Date: 2026-03-12
1. Introduction
Welcome to Tock ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclosure, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application (the "App").
2. Information We Collect
We believe in minimalism and data minimization. We prioritize storing your app data locally on your device to ensure a pure and private zen experience.
Non-Personal Data: We may collect non-personal information about your device, including your device model, operating system version, screen resolution, and general location (city/country level) for analytics purposes.
App Usage Data: We collect anonymous data on how you interact with the App, such as tapping frequency, feature usage (like auto-mode, skins, or theme switching), and session duration, to help us improve the user experience.
App Data (Local Only): Data such as your lifetime tap counts, unlocked achievements, custom floating texts, and preferred settings (sounds, themes) are processed and stored locally on your device. We do not upload this personal app data to any external server.
Crash Logs: In the event of an error, we may collect crash reports (via services like Firebase Crashlytics) to help us fix bugs.
3. Permissions
To function properly and provide an immersive experience, Tock may request the following permissions:
Internet Access: To load non-personalized or personalized ads (via AdMob) and strictly necessary usage analytics.
Network State: To check connectivity for loading advertisements and content.
Vibration / Haptic Feedback: To provide realistic physical feedback when you tap the screen, enhancing the immersive experience.
4. Third-Party Services
We may use third-party services that collect information used to identify you. The services we use may include:
Google AdMob: To display advertisements (App Open, Banner, Interstitial, and Rewarded Ads). AdMob may use your device's Advertising ID to serve relevant ads.
Google Firebase: For analytics and crash reporting.
Umeng (if applicable): For app statistics.

5. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information to:
Provide and maintain the App's functionality (e.g., saving your tap counts, achievements, and custom preferences accurately).
Monitor the usage of the App to detect, prevent, and address technical issues.
Improve user experience based on feedback and usage patterns.
Serve advertisements that allow us to keep the App free to use.
6. Children’s Privacy
Our App does not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If we discover that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we immediately delete this from our servers.
