Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 24, 2026

1. Who this applies to

This policy covers the Inner Tempo apps for iPhone, Android, Apple Watch, and Wear OS (the "app"). It explains what the app does and does not do with your information. By using the app, you agree to this policy.

2. Information we collect

We do not collect personal information. The app requires no sign-up or login and has no user accounts. We do not ask for your name, email address, or phone number, and we do not create a profile of you. The anonymous usage statistics described in section 5 do not identify you.

The app creates data as you use it, including completed sessions, breath-test results, favorites, reminders, profile details, and preferences. This data is stored locally on your device. If you enable full-data backup, the app stores a copy in the private CloudKit database for your Apple Account on iPhone, or in Google Drive's private app-data area for your Google Account on Android. The backup includes app history and settings; it excludes device identifiers, OS permission grants, Apple Health or Health Connect records, and backup consent. We do not receive the backup.

3. How your data is stored

• Local storage. Session history and settings are saved locally on your phone using the operating system's on-device storage.
• Paired watch. The Apple Watch or Wear OS app can run a session and send the result to your paired phone over the platform's local device-to-device connection. The watch does not keep a long-term copy.
• Optional full-data backup. Backup is off by default. If you enable it, a copy of your app data is sent directly to the private storage area in your Apple iCloud account on iPhone or your Google Drive account on Android. Inner Tempo has no developer-operated servers and does not receive the archive. Apple's CloudKit and Google Drive handle storage under their own terms.

On iPhone, backup uses the private CloudKit database associated with your Apple Account. On Android, it uses Google Drive's private app-data area after Google's authorization flow. Backup is off until you enable it. When enabled, the app saves changes and retries while active; the app does not promise a scheduled backup while it is closed or suspended. Turning backup off stops future requests but keeps the existing remote copy. Local deletion or importing a manual backup also stops future automatic backup and does not delete that remote copy. Backup consent is tied to the provider account and is not included in backup archives. Android and Wear OS use Google Drive; iPhone and Apple Watch use iCloud.

4. Backups you create

The app lets you export a backup file to move your history to a new device or keep a copy. That file is created at your request and saved wherever you choose. Separately, the optional automatic backup stores a full app archive in your private iCloud or Google Drive storage. Turning the setting off does not remove an existing cloud copy. We do not receive either backup.

5. Analytics and tracking

The iPhone app sends anonymous usage statistics to PostHog, a product analytics service. The data is stored on PostHog’s servers in the United States.

• What is sent. Events for when the app is opened, installed, updated, or sent to the background; which exercises or sessions you start and finish, with the session length; and whether you complete onboarding.
• Device and app context. Device model and type, OS version, app version and build, language and locale, time zone, screen size, and whether the device is on Wi-Fi or cellular.
• A random identifier. Each install gets a random identifier that is not linked to your name, email address, Apple Account, or advertising identifier. No person profiles are created.
• What is not sent. Your breathing history, breath-test results, Apple Health data, reminders, notes, and backups are not sent. The app uses no advertising identifiers, does no cross-app or cross-website tracking, and makes no session recordings or crash reports. Location is not derived from your IP address (GeoIP is disabled in the app).

You can turn this off at any time in Settings → My Data → “Share anonymous usage data”. Deleting all data also resets the random identifier.

The Apple Watch app, widgets, and the Android app do not currently send analytics.

6. Health and sensitive data

Breathing practice can feel personal, so we treat it that way. If you choose to enable the integration, the app writes completed sessions to Apple Health or Health Connect as mindful activity. It does not read your health records, and we never receive this data. The optional breath check is a simple timer you run yourself. Inner Tempo is a well-being tool, not a medical device, and nothing in the app is a diagnosis or medical advice.

7. Children

Inner Tempo is suitable for a general audience and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children. The app collects no personal data and only sends the anonymous usage statistics described in section 5, so there is nothing identifying for us to gather from a child or anyone else.

8. Notifications

If you turn on reminders, the app schedules local notifications on your device to nudge you to practice. These are generated and delivered on device. We do not send push notifications from a server, because we do not run one.

9. Changes to this policy

If the app ever changes in a way that affects this policy, we will update this page and revise the date above. We will describe changes involving off-device data before enabling them.
