1. The Short Version
We do not run third-party ads, sell your personal information, or share your fasting, journal, health, or spiritual data for advertising. We use data to run BellyClock, protect accounts, process payments, support optional AI and sync features, and improve reliability.
2. Information We Collect
We collect the information needed to provide the app and website:
- Account information, such as email address, display name, authentication status, and support messages.
- Fasting and wellness data, such as fasting timers, schedules, history, hydration, mood, energy, measurements, goals, and notes you choose to add.
- Spiritual routine data, such as prayer-time preferences, fasting calendars, and location settings used for sunrise, sunset, or prayer calculations when you enable them.
- Device and usage data, such as app version, device type, language, timezone, feature usage, diagnostics, crash reports, and security logs.
- Payment and subscription data, such as plan, entitlement status, checkout identifiers, receipts, renewal status, and cancellation status.
3. Payments
In-app purchases and subscriptions are processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play. Web or direct purchases are processed by Dodo Payments. We do not store full payment card numbers.
Payment providers may process billing details, fraud-prevention signals, tax information, and transaction records under their own privacy terms.
4. How We Use Information
- To provide fasting timers, reminders, analytics, wellness insights, spiritual fasting tools, and app settings.
- To sync or back up data when you enable account-based or cloud features.
- To process optional AI features you request, using only the content needed for that feature.
- To process payments, manage subscriptions, verify entitlements, prevent fraud, and handle refunds.
- To provide support, send service messages, fix bugs, monitor reliability, and protect BellyClock from abuse.
- To improve the product using aggregate or diagnostic information.
5. Ads and Affiliate Links
BellyClock does not use third-party ad networks, advertising cookies, or cross-app advertising profiles. We may include our own affiliate links in the app, blog, or educational content.
If you click an affiliate link, the merchant or affiliate platform may receive attribution information needed to credit a commission. We do not share your fasting logs, journal entries, health data, or spiritual routine data with affiliate partners for ad targeting.
6. When We Share Data
We share information only in specific conditions:
- With service providers that help us operate BellyClock, such as hosting, authentication, databases, push notifications, analytics, crash reporting, email/support tools, AI providers, and security services.
- With Apple, Google, and Dodo Payments for app distribution, checkout, subscription management, tax, receipts, fraud prevention, and payment support.
- When you ask us to share or export data, connect an integration, use a community feature, or contact support.
- When required for legal compliance, safety, fraud prevention, security, or to protect the rights of BellyClock, users, or others.
- As part of a business transfer such as a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of assets, with appropriate protections for user data.
7. Optional AI Features
AI coaching, meal ideas, fasting guidance, journaling prompts, or similar features are optional. When you use them, we may send the relevant prompt and selected context to AI service providers so they can return a response.
AI output is informational and may be incomplete or inaccurate. Do not rely on it as medical, religious, legal, or professional advice.
8. Permissions and Integrations
BellyClock may request permissions for notifications, location, HealthKit, Google Fit, biometrics, camera, photos, or similar device features. Permissions are controlled by your device settings. Some app features may not work if a permission is disabled.
9. Retention and Deletion
We retain account and app data while your account is active or as needed to provide BellyClock. You can delete local data from your device, delete your account where available, or contact us for deletion help.
Some records may be retained longer where required for legal, tax, payment, security, fraud-prevention, backup, or dispute-resolution purposes.
10. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards, including access controls, encryption in transit, and provider-level security controls. No online service can be guaranteed completely secure, so please use a strong password and protect your devices.
11. Your Choices
- Update or delete certain information in app settings where available.
- Disable notifications, location, health integrations, and other permissions in device settings.
- Cancel subscriptions through Apple, Google, Dodo Payments, or your BellyClock account portal depending on where you purchased.
- Contact us to request access, correction, export, deletion, or other privacy rights available in your region.
