Pausuno Privacy Policy
1. Who we are
Buytitude LLC develops Pausuno. Contact [email protected] about this policy.
2. Information processed on your phone
When you grant the relevant Android permissions, Pausuno processes the package identifiers of selected and active apps, app usage events and durations, your configured time limits and schedules, PIN protection settings, focus sessions, and related local app usage information. The app may also store local notes or tasks if you choose to use those features.
This information is used to measure screen time, display your usage statistics, and apply app limits. Core usage and configuration information is intended to remain in local app storage; we do not operate a Pausuno account database or upload your selected-app usage history to our own servers.
3. Sensitive Android permissions
- Usage Access: permits Pausuno to read Android app-usage statistics needed to count time against selected limits.
- Accessibility Service: is used to detect which app is in the foreground and display a blocking interface when your configured restrictions apply. The service is intended to use app identifiers and foreground changes, not to read your messages, passwords, or the content of other apps.
These permissions are optional to grant, but app monitoring and blocking cannot function fully without them. You may disable them through Android Settings.
4. Advertising
The ad-supported edition uses Google AdMob, together with Google's consent-management tools where required. Google and its partners may process information such as device identifiers, IP address, approximate location inferred from technical data, advertising interactions, and technical diagnostics. Ad personalization or consent choices depend on your region and device settings. For more information see Google's Privacy Policy and Google's advertising data practices.
Premium disables Pausuno's in-app advertisements while an active qualifying purchase is recognized. Google's billing and certain app-store services may still communicate with Google.
5. Purchases and billing
Optional Premium purchases are processed by Google Play. Pausuno can receive purchase status and related purchase identifiers to determine whether Premium is active. We do not receive your full credit card number through the app. Existing annual subscriptions, if any, continue under their Google Play terms; an eventual one-time Premium product provides permanent benefits according to its purchase terms. For purchase and refund details, consult Google Play.
6. How long data is kept
Locally stored settings and activity history generally remain on your phone until you remove them using the app's available controls, clear the app's storage, or uninstall the application. Data independently processed by Google or other service providers is governed by their policies and retention settings.
7. Data sharing and disclosure
We do not sell or upload your personal screen-time history to our own service. Pausuno may communicate with Google AdMob, Google Play Billing, and other Google platform components described above. A user-initiated share/export action can transfer information to the service you choose; Pausuno does not automatically publish your reports.
8. Your choices
You can adjust selected apps and limits, revoke device permissions, select advertising privacy options where offered, manage purchases through Google Play, or delete locally stored data by uninstalling/clearing app data. Google account and advertising privacy controls are managed through Google.
9. Security and children
We use Android's local app storage and platform security protections. No app can promise absolute protection against all device-level changes. Pausuno is intended for general users and is not designed as an online service for children to submit personal information. Parents and guardians should review the suitability of the app and its permissions.
10. Updates
We may update this policy as Pausuno changes. The effective date at the top identifies the latest version. Material changes will be reflected here before or when the affected app release is distributed.
