Privacy Policy

What ActivTime doesn’t do

Most privacy policies are long because the app has a lot to disclose. This one is short for the opposite reason. ActivTime does not:

• Ask you to create an account, sign in, or identify yourself.
• Collect your name, email address, phone number, date of birth, or any other personal detail.
• Request or record your location.
• Read your contacts, photos, calendar, microphone, camera, or Apple Health data.
• Use the advertising identifier, fingerprint your device, or track you across other apps and websites.
• Include any analytics, telemetry, crash-reporting, or attribution software.
• Show advertisements.
• Sell, rent, share, or transmit information about you — to us or to anyone else.

The one connection the app makes

ActivTime has no server of its own and sends nothing about you anywhere. It makes one kind of network request, and it goes to Apple: through StoreKit, the app asks the App Store what ActivTime Pro costs in your currency, and whether you have already bought it.

That exchange is between your device and Apple. It carries nothing about your workouts, and we never see it. Everything else — the timer, your history, your settings — runs with no connection at all.

What the app stores on your iPhone

ActivTime keeps the following, all in its own private storage area on your device:

• Your session history. For each workout: the date and time it finished, the exercise name you chose, how many rounds you planned and how many you completed, your target hold length, the total seconds you actually held, and whether you ended the session early. Only the most recent 500 sessions are kept; older ones are discarded automatically.
• Your custom exercises. The names of any exercises you have added alongside the built-in ones.
• Your presets. Each preset’s name, with the exercise, rounds, hold time and rest time it saves — plus which preset last started a workout, so the Timer screen can open on it.
• Your preferences. Whether sound cues and haptic feedback are switched on, and whether you have already seen the welcome screen.
• Whether Pro is unlocked. A single yes-or-no flag, so that a paying user doesn’t watch a locked screen flash past on every launch. It is only a cache — the App Store is the authority, and the app re-checks with Apple each time it starts.

None of this leaves your device, and no copy of it exists anywhere else. You can delete individual sessions, custom exercises, and presets inside the app, and removing the app from your iPhone erases all of it permanently.

Device backups

If you back your iPhone up to iCloud or to a computer, that backup may include ActivTime’s stored data, exactly as it does for any other app. Those backups are created and secured by Apple under Apple’s Privacy Policy, not this one. We have no access to them.

ActivTime Pro and your purchase

ActivTime is free to download. ActivTime Pro is a one-time in-app purchase that unlocks the progress charts and stats, and lets you add your own exercises and save presets. The timer, the cues, your complete session history, and loading any presets you have saved are free, and stay free.

Apple processes the purchase. We never see your card number, billing address, or Apple Account details — Apple does not share them with developers.

Whether you own the unlock is worked out on your device, by asking StoreKit about transactions Apple has already verified. There is no account with us, no receipt uploaded anywhere, and nothing for us to look up. Restore Purchase in Settings asks Apple the same question again, which is how the unlock follows you to a new iPhone — Apple answers whether the product was bought, not who you are. If Apple refunds you, that same check removes the unlock.

What Apple does provide is aggregated sales reporting, and, if you have chosen to share analytics with developers in your iPhone’s privacy settings, aggregated and anonymised usage statistics. Neither identifies you individually, and neither is something the app itself collects.

Links that leave the app

The Settings screen can open this policy and the terms in a browser view. Once you leave ActivTime, the privacy policy of whatever you have opened applies instead of this one. Opening them tells us nothing about you beyond an ordinary, un-identified web request.

Children

ActivTime is a general-purpose exercise timer and is not directed at children. It collects no personal information from anyone, so it collects none from children either. If a child uses it to time an exercise, that is a matter for a parent or guardian to supervise in the same way they would any other physical activity.

Your rights

Privacy laws such as the GDPR and the CCPA give you the right to access, correct, export, or delete the personal data a company holds about you. We hold none, so there is nothing for us to hand over or erase. The data on your device is yours, and it is already entirely under your control.

Changes to this policy

If a future version of ActivTime ever collects, transmits, or shares anything, this page will be updated to describe exactly what and why before that version ships, and the date at the top will change. Material changes will also be flagged inside the app.

Contact

A support address will be published here before ActivTime is released on the App Store. Until then there is no monitored channel for privacy.
