Analog Clock - Privacy Policy

Last updated: 5 November 2026

Analog Clock is an analog clock widget for Android, iPhone, iPad and Mac, published by alpxstudio ("we"). This policy applies to all versions of the app and explains what the app collects, why, and who receives it.

In short: the app shows no ads and does not track you on iPhone, iPad or Mac. We advertise the app on Google, and on Android the advertising ID is used to measure those ads as described below.

What the app does not collect

• No account, sign-in, name, e-mail address or phone number.
• No precise location, contacts, photos, files, messages, calendar or microphone. The app requests none of these permissions.
• No payment or card details. Purchases are handled end to end by Google Play on Android and by the Apple App Store on iPhone, iPad and Mac; we never see your payment information.
• No text you type: the app has no text input.

Your chosen clock style and preferences are stored on your device. Which style and settings you apply is also reported as usage data, as described below.

Usage analytics (Google Analytics for Firebase, all platforms)

The app uses Firebase to understand how it is used. The following is collected:

• An app-instance identifier generated by Firebase for each installation.
• Approximate location (country or region level), derived by Google from a masked IP address. The app itself does not access device location.
• App interactions: app opens, sessions, screen views, and general device information such as device model, operating system version and language.
• In-app actions: which clock style and settings you apply, whether the widget is in use and with which settings, how many styles you own, whether you have a subscription, and whether a purchase was started, completed or failed.
• Purchase details: the product identifier and, when a purchase completes, its price and currency.

On Android the widget can report data while the app is closed: at most once a day that it is active and with which settings, and when it is added or removed, or restored after a restart. On iPhone, iPad and Mac, data is sent only from the app, never from the widget.

Crash reports (Firebase Crashlytics, iPhone, iPad and Mac)

If the app crashes, a report containing technical details is sent to Firebase: the state of the app at the time of the crash, device model, operating system version and an installation identifier. We use it only to fix errors.

Google advertising (Android)

On Android, Firebase also uses the advertising ID. We link Firebase with Google Ads to measure our ads and to build audiences of app users, so that we can show them ads for the app in other apps and on other websites. On iPhone, iPad and Mac the Firebase version in use does not access the advertising identifier.

Why we use the data

• Analytics and improvement: to see which clock styles and settings people actually use, and to find where the app fails (for example a purchase that cannot be completed).
• Advertising: to measure and improve our own ads for the app, as described above. The app does not display ads.

We do not sell your data for money and we do not share it with data brokers.

Who receives the data and how long it is kept

• Google LLC processes Firebase data on our behalf under the Google Privacy Policy. Analytics data is retained for at most 14 months and crash reports for about 90 days.
• Google (Google Play) and Apple (App Store) process purchases under their own privacy policies. We receive confirmation of which product you own so that it can be unlocked.

Data is transmitted encrypted (TLS) and may be processed outside your country, including in the United States. We do not share it with any other third party.

Your choices

• Android: to delete your advertising ID, go to Settings > Privacy > Ads (the wording varies by device).

Uninstalling the app stops all further collection. The app has no accounts, so we cannot match stored data to a specific person. Data held by Google is deleted automatically when the retention periods above end. For questions, write to us at the address below.

Children

The app is not directed at children and does not knowingly collect data from them.

Changes

If this policy changes, the date at the top will change with it.
