Privacy Policy

The Acorn Studio ("we," "our," or "us") operates Blue Hour. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our application.

We collect minimal data. Blue Hour is designed with privacy as a core principle.

• Screen Time Data: App usage data is processed locally on your device using Apple's Screen Time framework. We do not have access to, collect, or transmit this data.
• App Selection: The apps you choose to block are stored locally on your device and are not sent to our servers.
• Subscription Data: Payment processing is handled entirely by Apple. We receive confirmation of your subscription status but not your payment details.
• Account Information: If you create an account or sign in with a social provider, we store your name and email address for authentication purposes only.

The limited information we collect is used to:

• Provide and maintain the app's functionality
• Manage your account and subscription
• Respond to your support requests
• Improve the app based on aggregated, anonymized usage patterns

We use industry-standard security measures to protect any data associated with Blue Hour. Where possible, data is stored locally on your device using secure storage mechanisms.

We use the following third-party services:

• Apple Screen Time API: For app blocking functionality. Data is processed locally on your device.
• Apple App Store: For subscription management and payment processing.
• Firebase Authentication: For optional account creation (email only).

Blue Hour is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.

You have the right to:

• Access your personal data
• Delete your account and associated data
