Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how TimeBloom ("the site," "we," "us") handles information. In short: the site runs timers inside your browser, and your settings stay on your device.
1. Information we collect
We do not require an account and do not ask for personal information. The timer, stopwatch and Pomodoro settings you choose are processed in your browser and are never sent to us, stored on a server, or logged.
2. Information stored on your device
To remember your preferences, we save small, non-personal values in your browser's local storage, such as your timer and Pomodoro settings, sound and notification choices, colour theme and interface language. This stays on your device and is not transmitted. You can clear it any time in your browser settings.
3. Notifications and sound
If you enable browser notifications, your browser asks for permission and shows alerts locally; we do not receive any data from this. The alarm sound is generated in your browser and no audio files or data are sent anywhere.
4. Cookies and advertising
We may display advertising on this site, including through Google AdSense. As a result:
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of some third-party vendors at aboutads.info.
- For more on how Google uses data from sites that use its services, see Google's policy.
5. Analytics
We aim to keep the site simple and privacy-respecting and do not use analytics that build a personal profile of you. If this changes, we will update this policy.
6. Children's privacy
This is a general-audience site and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone.
7. Your choices
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, opt out of personalised ads using the links above, and clear locally stored settings at any time. The timers keep working because they run locally.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date above will reflect any changes.
