Pupmodoro Privacy Policy
Effective October 31, 2026 · LevelAnchor LLC
Pupmodoro is a focus timer with a sleepy pup. We built it to collect as little as possible. This policy explains what the app stores, where, and why.
If you don't sign in
Everything stays on your device: your pup's name, your focus history, dog biscuits, records, outfits and settings. Nothing is sent to us. Deleting the app deletes this data.
If you sign in to sync
Signing in is optional. It keeps your data the same across your devices (iPhone, iPad, Android and pupmodoro.com). You can sign in with Apple (on iPhone and iPad) or Google. When you do, we use Google Firebase to store:
- Account details from your sign-in provider: an account ID and your email address (and, with Apple, a private relay address if you choose to hide your email).
- App data you create: focus sessions (start time and length), dog biscuits earned, records unlocked, and a few settings (pup name, outfit, record-player deck, scene).
- Your email choice: whether you ticked "Send me occasional updates".
This data is used to sync the app between your devices. It is stored with Google Cloud in the United States, protected so that only your signed-in account can read or write it.
Email updates
We email you only if you tick "Send me occasional updates from Pupmodoro" when you sign in. Then we send occasional news about new records, scenes and tips to the email address from your sign-in (or your Apple private relay address). Every email has an unsubscribe link; you can also untick the box in the app or email us. We send these emails through an email service that works on our behalf and may not use your address for anything else. If you don't tick the box, we never email you marketing, and nothing in the app depends on it.
Purchases
Pupmodoro Pro is sold through the App Store on iPhone and iPad, and through Google Play on Android. Apple or Google handles payment; we never see your payment details. The app checks your purchase status with the store on your device.
Purchases on pupmodoro.com
Pupmodoro Pro on the website is sold through Link, a Stripe service that is the merchant of record. You pay on a Stripe checkout page, and Stripe and Link handle your payment details, billing address and email under Stripe's privacy policy. We never see your card number.
So that Pro turns on for your account, Stripe tells us what you bought and its status (plan, trial and renewal dates, cancellations and refunds). We keep that, and a Stripe customer ID, with your account in Google Firebase. Only your signed-in account can read it, and only our server can change it. If you delete your account, we cancel any web subscription and delete this record. Stripe keeps its own payment records as the law requires.
Notifications
If you allow notifications, the app schedules local reminders on your device: when a focus round ends, and, if you start a free trial, two days before the trial ends. These are not sent through our servers.
Website analytics
The Pupmodoro website (pupmodoro.com) uses Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages and features are used, for example how many focus rounds are started or which record is played, and which link brought a visitor to the site. It sets analytics cookies in your browser. We turned off Google signals and ad personalization, and we don't send your name or email to Google Analytics. You can block it with any content blocker, or opt out at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
What we don't do
- No advertising and no ad tracking.
- No analytics or third-party tracking SDKs in the iPhone, iPad and Android apps.
- We don't sell or share your data with anyone.
Deleting your data
In the app, open Journal → Sync → Delete account. This permanently deletes your synced data and your account. The copy on your device stays until you delete the app. You can also email us and we'll delete it for you. Step-by-step instructions: pupmodoro.com/delete-account.
Children
Pupmodoro is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update this page and the date above.
