Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Breathe Buddy collects, uses, and protects information when you use the app.
1. Overview
Breathe Buddy is designed to provide guided breathing exercises, session tracking, and calming app experiences. We aim to keep the experience simple and respectful of your privacy.
2. Information we may collect
Breathe Buddy may collect or store limited information necessary to provide app features, such as:
- session history and selected breathing techniques,
- duration preferences and reminder settings,
- language and app configuration preferences,
- optional mood feedback you choose to provide.
Depending on the version of the app and the services used, some of this information may be stored locally on your device and may not be transmitted to external servers.
3. How we use information
We use information only to support and improve the app experience, including to:
- display your breathing history and daily rhythm progress,
- save your preferences and reminder settings,
- improve app stability, usability, and performance.
4. Analytics and diagnostics
Breathe Buddy may use privacy-conscious analytics or crash reporting tools to understand performance issues and improve reliability. These tools may collect technical information such as device type, operating system version, app version, and anonymous diagnostic data.
5. Notifications and reminders
If you enable reminders, the app may use notification permissions on your device to send breathing reminders. You can disable notifications at any time in the app settings or your device settings.
6. Data sharing
We do not sell your personal data. We may use trusted third-party service providers only when necessary for app functionality, analytics, diagnostics, or distribution through platforms such as the App Store.
7. Data retention
Data stored locally on your device remains there until you remove the app or clear the relevant app data, unless a specific feature states otherwise.
8. Your choices
You can control many privacy-related features by:
- changing settings inside the app,
- disabling notifications from your device settings,
- removing the app from your device.
9. Children’s privacy
Breathe Buddy is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe information has been provided in error, please contact us.
