Privacy Policy for Pauzly
Effective Date: 02.04.2026
Last Updated: 02.04.2026
Pauzly ("we", "our", or "us") provides a digital wellness application designed to help users monitor screen time, set limits, and complete healthy activities.
This Privacy Policy explains how we process information when you use the Pauzly mobile application ("App") in accordance with Google Play policies.
1. Information We Process
a) App Usage Data (On-Device Processing)
Pauzly processes app usage statistics (such as time spent in selected apps) locally on your device to provide screen-time monitoring, reminders, and limit features.
b) Installed Applications (On-Device Processing)
The App processes a list of installed applications (package names) solely to allow users to select which apps to monitor.
c) Activity Data
If you grant permission, Pauzly processes activity recognition data (for example step count and movement) to enable activity-based goals, tracking, and rewards.
d) Purchase Information
All payments are processed by Google Play Billing. We may receive limited purchase status information (for example whether a subscription is active) to enable premium features. We do not process or store payment details such as credit card numbers.
e) Advertising Data (If Enabled)
If ads are enabled, third-party advertising partners (such as Google Mobile Ads) may process:
- Device identifiers
- Advertising IDs
- IP address
- App interaction data
This data is used for ad delivery, fraud prevention, and performance measurement in accordance with their own privacy policies.
2. How We Use Information
We use the processed information to:
- Provide and maintain core app functionality
- Enable screen-time tracking and usage limits
- Allow users to manage monitored apps
- Support activity-based features and progress tracking
- Ensure app performance, security, and stability
- Enable purchases and premium access
- Display and measure advertisements (if applicable)
3. Data Storage and Security
Most data processed by Pauzly remains stored locally on your device. We implement reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect information. We do not sell personal data.
4. Data Sharing
We do not sell or rent user data.
We may share limited information only when necessary to:
- Operate third-party services (for example Google Play Billing, Google Mobile Ads)
- Comply with legal obligations
5. Permissions and Their Use
Pauzly requests only the permissions necessary for its core functionality:
- PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS - To monitor app usage for screen-time features
- QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES - To display installed apps for user selection
- ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION - To track movement and steps
- FOREGROUND_SERVICE / FOREGROUND_SERVICE_DATA_SYNC - To run continuous monitoring
- POST_NOTIFICATIONS - To send reminders and alerts
- RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED - To restore monitoring after device restart
- WAKE_LOCK - To ensure reliable background operation
Permissions are used strictly for the purposes described above.
6. Data Retention and Deletion
Data is primarily stored locally on your device and is retained until:
- You delete it
- You clear app data
- You uninstall the App
You can manage or delete data at any time via your device settings.
7. Children's Privacy
The App is not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your location (including the EEA/UK), you may have rights under applicable data protection laws, including:
- Access to your data
- Correction of inaccurate data
- Deletion of data
- Restriction or objection to processing
Because most data is stored locally, you can exercise many of these rights directly through your device.
9. Third-Party Services
Pauzly may use third-party services, including:
- Google Play Billing
- Google Mobile Ads (AdMob)
These services operate independently and are governed by their own privacy policies.
10. International Users
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), your data is processed in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
