Focused

Information the App Accesses

Location (precise and approximate, including background)

Focused uses your device's location to detect when you enter or leave the "zones" you create (e.g. office, gym, home). This is the core function of the App: apps you've chosen to block are activated only while you're physically inside an active zone.

• Location is used to register and monitor geofences via Google Play Services.
• Zone coordinates (the location and radius you set when creating a zone) are stored only on your device, in a local database.
• Background location access is used so zone detection keeps working when the App isn't open on screen. It is requested separately from foreground location, with an in-app explanation before you're sent to system settings.
• We do not transmit your location to any server we operate, sell it, or share it with third parties.

List of installed apps

The App reads the list of apps installed on your device (via Android's PackageManager) so you can choose which apps to block within a zone. This list is used only within the App and is not transmitted anywhere.

Accessibility Service

Focused uses Android's Accessibility Service to detect which app is currently in the foreground, which is required to intercept and block apps on your active block list. The Accessibility Service:

• Only checks the package name of the foreground app.
• Does not read, log, or transmit screen content, text you type, or any other on-screen personal data.
• Is used exclusively to power app blocking and is not used for advertising, analytics, or any purpose unrelated to this feature.

Notifications

The App requests notification permission in order to alert you about zone- and blocking-related activity. No notification content is shared with third parties.

Account information (optional — Google Sign-In)

Signing in is optional and is used to keep your Focused Pro subscription tied to your identity rather than only to the device you purchased it on. If you choose to sign in with Google:

• We receive your Google account ID, email address, and display name from Google's sign-in flow (via Android's Credential Manager).
• This information is stored locally on your device and is also sent to RevenueCat (see below) to associate your subscription with your account.
• We do not use this information for advertising or marketing, and we do not build a profile of you beyond identifying your subscription.
• You can sign out at any time from Settings, which removes this information from your device and reverts your subscription identity to an anonymous one with RevenueCat.

Subscription and purchase data (Focused Pro)

Focused Pro is an optional paid subscription, sold through Google Play Billing and managed using RevenueCat, a third-party subscription management service.

• When you view plans or make a purchase, RevenueCat and Google Play Billing process the transaction and report entitlement status (e.g. active, trial, renewal date) back to the App.
• To do this, an app user identifier is shared with RevenueCat — either an anonymous ID generated by RevenueCat, or your Google account ID if you're signed in.
• RevenueCat may also collect standard technical data needed to manage subscriptions (such as device platform, app version, and purchase/transaction identifiers from Google Play), per RevenueCat's Privacy Policy.
• Your entitlement status (Pro active/inactive, trial state, renewal date) is cached locally on your device so the App works offline; the source of truth is your subscription with Google Play and RevenueCat.
• We do not receive or store your payment details (card numbers, etc.) — these are handled entirely by Google Play.
• You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time through the Google Play Store, or via the "Manage subscription" link in Settings, which opens Google Play's subscription management page.

Where Your Data Is Stored

Zone, blocked-app list, session, and preference data is stored locally on your device using Room (local database) and DataStore (local preferences). None of it is sent to a server operated by us, because Focused doesn't have one for this data.

Account identity (if you sign in) and subscription/entitlement data are additionally stored by RevenueCat and Google Play, as described above.

If Android's automatic backup is enabled on your device, your locally stored data may be included in your device's standard Android backup to your own Google account, subject to Google's backup policies and encryption. We do not have access to these backups.

You can erase your locally stored zones and sessions at any time via Settings → Delete my data, or remove everything by uninstalling the App. Deleting local data does not cancel an active Focused Pro subscription or your Google sign-in — use Google Play or the in-app "Sign out" option for those.

Third-Party Services

Focused uses the following third-party services:

• Google Play Services (Location / Geofencing) — used to monitor zone entry and exit.
• Google Maps SDK — used to display the map when you create or edit a zone.
• Google Sign-In / Credential Manager — used only if you choose to sign in, to authenticate your Google identity.
• Google Play Billing — used to process Focused Pro purchases and subscriptions.
• RevenueCat — used to manage and validate Focused Pro subscription status across devices. See RevenueCat's Privacy Policy.

These services are subject to their own respective privacy policies, including Google's Privacy Policy. Their use is limited to the purposes described in this policy; we do not use them to serve ads or build advertising profiles.

Data Sharing and Sale

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for advertising purposes. We do not use advertising SDKs. Data described above is shared only with the service providers (Google, RevenueCat) necessary to provide sign-in, purchases, and subscription management.

Your Choices

• Location, notification, and accessibility permissions can all be reviewed or revoked at any time in your device's Settings. If revoked, zone-based blocking will stop working until permissions are restored.
• Signing in with Google is optional; you can sign out at any time in Settings.
• You can delete individual zones, use Settings → Delete my data to wipe all locally stored zones and sessions, or uninstall the App entirely.
• You can manage or cancel your Focused Pro subscription at any time through the Google Play Store.

Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes, the "Effective date" above will be updated. Continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
