Summary

Focus Blocks does not collect, transmit, or share personal data. There is no account, no analytics, no ads, no backend, and no third-party SDKs.

What data is handled

On your device

App and category selections you choose through Apple's FamilyActivityPicker. These are stored locally and used only to decide what to shield.
Rules you create, including schedules, daily budgets, device scope, strict mode, and non-private selection metadata.
Screen Time authorization state granted by iOS.

Focus Blocks does not read, count, log, or transmit your app usage. Apple's Screen Time framework performs shielding on the operating-system side based on the rules you set.

In your own iCloud

Your rules and preferences can be written to Apple's iCloud Key-Value Store, container iCloud.love.nemi.focus, so your setup is available on your own iPhone and iPad.
Screen Time app selections do not sync as reusable app tokens. Each device stores its own private FamilyActivitySelection token after you confirm apps on that device.
This data is stored in your iCloud account, under your Apple ID. The developer of Focus Blocks has no access to it, cannot read it, and cannot enumerate users.
You can stop this sync by turning off iCloud Drive for Focus Blocks in Settings -> [your name] -> iCloud.

What Focus Blocks never does

Does not create an account or require one.
Does not include analytics, crash reporters, advertising SDKs, or any third-party SDKs that transmit data.
Does not send data to our servers. There are no servers.
Does not monitor or log which apps you use, when, or for how long.
Does not manage other people's devices. Focus Blocks is self-directed, not parental control.

Children's privacy

Focus Blocks is rated 4+ and safe for all ages. Because it does not collect data, it is designed to avoid collecting children's personal information.

Security

On-device data is protected by iOS app-sandbox and data-protection mechanisms. iCloud Key-Value sync is handled by Apple.

Your rights

Because we do not collect personal data, we have nothing to export, correct, or delete on our end. To remove Focus Blocks data:

Delete the app to remove local storage.
Use iCloud account storage settings to remove Focus Blocks iCloud Key-Value entries.

Changes

If this policy changes, this page will be updated with a new effective date. If Focus Blocks ever begins collecting data, that will require a new app version with clear disclosure.
