Interleaving Reading Timer Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-09-17
Draft — not ready for publication
Sections marked below are placeholders that have not been verified against how the app actually behaves. Complete them before submitting this app to Google Play. An inaccurate privacy policy is a legal and policy risk.
This policy explains how Interleaving Reading Timer handles your information. The app works without an account, and your reading data is stored on your device.
Information we collect
The app does not require an account or sign-in, and does not ask for personal details such as your name, email address, or phone number.
The information you enter — book titles, the number of books, switch intervals, alert preferences, and completed session records shown in the reading calendar — is stored on your device.
How your information is used
Your data is used only to run reading sessions as you configured them and to show your past sessions in the reading calendar.
Permissions
The app declares the following Android permissions:
- Notifications — to show session progress and book-switch alerts
- Foreground service (special use) — to keep a reading session running while you read
- Wake lock — to signal a book switch while the screen is off
- Vibrate — for book-switch vibration alerts
- Ignore battery optimizations — to request that the system not interrupt a running session
Data sharing and third parties
TODO — VERIFY BEFORE PUBLISHING. Confirm whether the app includes any analytics, crash reporting, or advertising SDK. If none, state that explicitly. Check the app's Gradle dependencies before completing this section.
Data retention and deletion
Reading data is stored on your device. Uninstalling the app removes it, and you can clear app data from your device settings at any time.
Children's privacy
TODO — VERIFY BEFORE PUBLISHING. Confirm the intended audience and state the appropriate position, consistent with your Google Play Console declaration.
