Privacy Policy

Effective: March 22, 2026 | Last Updated: April 23, 2026

PocketLabs ("we," "us," or "our") values the privacy of users of ListenTimer (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains what personal information the App collects, how it is used, and how it is protected.

1. Information We Collect

Category	Data Collected	Storage
App Settings	Timer presets, voice character, voice interval, haptic settings	Stored locally on your device (never sent to any server)
Advertising Data (free users)	Advertising identifier (IDFA), device information, app usage data	Google LLC servers
App Usage Analytics (Firebase Analytics)	App Instance ID (pseudonymous identifier), device information (model, OS version, language/region), automatically collected events (first open, session start/end, app updates, app removals, in-app purchases, etc.), approximate IP-based location (country/region level)	Google LLC (Firebase) servers
Crash Reports (Firebase Crashlytics)	Crash stack traces, device state (model, OS version, memory/disk usage, battery state, etc.), Crashlytics installation UUID (pseudonymous identifier), crash timestamps, app run time, non-fatal error logs	Google LLC (Firebase) servers

This App does not operate its own servers. We do not collect account information, login credentials, or require registration. The identifiers used by Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics (App Instance ID, Crashlytics installation UUID) are pseudonymous and are not linked to directly identifying information such as your name, email, or phone number.

2. How We Collect Information

App Settings: Values you configure within the App are automatically saved on your device.
Advertising Data: Collected automatically by the Google AdMob SDK, based on your App Tracking Transparency (ATT) consent. If you do not allow tracking via ATT, your IDFA is not collected.
App Usage Analytics (Firebase Analytics): Collected automatically by the Firebase Analytics SDK during app launch and use. It does not use IDFA; it relies on a pseudonymous identifier (App Instance ID) issued by Firebase.
Crash Reports (Firebase Crashlytics): When the App terminates abnormally (crashes) or encounters non-fatal errors, the Firebase Crashlytics SDK automatically uploads a report on the next app launch.

3. Purpose of Data Collection

App Settings: To provide a personalized timer experience
Advertising Data: To deliver personalized ads and measure advertising performance
App Usage Analytics (Firebase Analytics): To analyze usage patterns for feature improvements, performance optimization, and user experience enhancements
Crash Reports (Firebase Crashlytics): To diagnose app stability issues, fix bugs, and improve quality

4. Data Retention

Category	Retention Period
App Settings (local)	Automatically deleted when you uninstall the App
Advertising Data	Subject to Google's Privacy Policy
Firebase Analytics Data	Default Google Analytics for Firebase retention (up to 14 months). See Firebase data retention policy for details.
Firebase Crashlytics Data	Retained for up to 90 days from the crash event, then automatically deleted (Firebase default policy)

5. Third-Party Data Sharing

Recipient	Data Shared	Purpose
Google LLC (AdMob)	Advertising identifier (IDFA), device information, app usage data	Personalized advertising and performance measurement
Google LLC (Firebase Analytics)	App Instance ID, device information, automatically collected events, approximate IP-based location	App usage analysis and feature improvement
Google LLC (Firebase Crashlytics)	Crash stack traces, device state, Crashlytics installation UUID	Crash diagnostics and app stability improvement

When you purchase Premium, ads are removed and data sharing with AdMob ceases. However, Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics continue to operate identically for Premium users for the purpose of app quality improvement.

6. International Data Transfer

Advertising data, Firebase Analytics data, and Firebase Crashlytics data are transferred to Google LLC servers located in the United States and other countries. For details, see Google's Privacy Policy and Firebase Privacy and Security.

7. Your Rights

You may exercise the following rights at any time:

Withdraw consent for data collection
Request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information
Request suspension of data processing

To exercise these rights, please contact us at contact@pocketlabs.kr. We will respond without delay.

8. Data Deletion

App Settings (local data): All settings stored on your device are automatically deleted when you uninstall the App.
Advertising Data: Handled according to Google's data retention policies. You can stop future data collection by changing your ATT settings.
Firebase Analytics Data: Automatically deleted after the Firebase default retention period (up to 14 months). Uninstalling the App stops future data collection. To request immediate deletion of previously collected data, contact us at the email below.
Firebase Crashlytics Data: Automatically deleted 90 days after the crash event. Immediate deletion can be requested via the contact email below.

10. Security Measures

We take the following measures to ensure the security of your personal information:

We do not operate our own servers, eliminating risks of server breaches or data leaks.
All app settings are stored locally on your device only.
Communication with ad networks and Firebase is encrypted via HTTPS.
Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics use only pseudonymous identifiers and do not collect directly identifying information such as your name, email, or phone number.

11. Children's Privacy

This App does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 14. If we become aware that personal information from a child has been collected, we will delete it promptly.

12. Changes with Premium Purchase

When you purchase Premium, in-app ads are removed. As a result, advertising data collection through the AdMob SDK (IDFA, device information, app usage data) ceases.

However, Firebase Analytics (app usage analytics) and Firebase Crashlytics (crash reports) continue to operate identically for Premium users for the purpose of app stability and quality improvement.

13. Withdrawing Consent

You can withdraw your consent for ad tracking at any time through the following steps:

iOS: Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking > Toggle off ListenTimer

Disabling tracking will stop IDFA-based personalized advertising data collection.

Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics data collection operates independently of the ATT setting, and an in-app opt-out toggle is not currently provided. To stop data collection entirely, you may uninstall the App. To request immediate deletion of previously collected data, please contact us using the email listed in Section 9 (Data Protection Officer).

14. Changes to This Policy

If this Privacy Policy is updated, we will post the changes on this page and update the effective date. For significant changes, we may provide notice within the App.
