FocusControl ("the App") is developed by Eugene Fomin. This privacy policy explains how the App handles your information.
FocusControl does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data to external servers. All app data, including focus sessions, schedules, goals, and preferences, is stored locally on your device using Apple's standard storage mechanisms (UserDefaults and App Groups).
The App uses Apple's Screen Time API (FamilyControls, ManagedSettings, DeviceActivity frameworks) to block distracting apps during focus sessions. This data is managed entirely by Apple's frameworks on your device and is not accessible to us.
The App does not use any third-party analytics, tracking, or advertising SDKs. We do not track your behavior, app usage, or any other metrics.
We do not share any data with third parties. There is no data to share because we do not collect any.
Subscription purchases are processed entirely by Apple through the App Store. We do not have access to your payment information.
The App is designed for individual use by adults to manage their own screen time. It is not designed as a parental control tool.
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date.
