Introduction

Loopdrop (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is an iOS app that helps you manage screen time by setting limits on apps and categories you choose, using Apple’s Screen Time–related APIs. It may show usage insights, goals, and blocking or focus-related features on your device.

This Privacy Policy describes how Loopdrop handles information when you use the app. Loopdrop is designed to process your information on your device. Unless we state otherwise below, we do not operate a Loopdrop account system or Loopdrop-controlled servers that receive your personal data from the app as it is built today.

Data controller

The organization responsible for Loopdrop is:

• Name: Yuval Press
• Contact email: [email protected]

Information we process

Loopdrop may process the following categories of information on your device:

Screen Time selections and system usage data

When you choose apps or categories to limit or monitor, Apple’s Family Controls and related APIs handle those selections according to Apple’s rules. Such selections are represented with system-managed tokens on the device; Loopdrop uses them to apply schedules, shields, and monitoring as you configure.

Usage-related information that Apple exposes through Device Activity and related APIs may be processed locally to power statistics and insights shown in the app (for example, totals, trends, or top apps over a period you view in the app).

App settings, goals, and usage insights

Information you enter or choose in the app—such as goal names, group or limit settings, focus session details, onboarding preferences, and aggregated counts or events related to blocking or snoozing—may be stored locally using SwiftData, UserDefaults, and shared storage (App Group) so the main app and its extensions can work together on the same device.

Permissions

The app may check whether you have granted permissions such as Screen Time (Family Controls) authorization or notification permission. That state is used to operate the app on your device; we do not describe transmitting that state to Loopdrop-operated servers in the current app build.

What we do not do (current app)

Based on how Loopdrop is implemented today:

• We do not sell your personal information.
• We do not embed third-party advertising or marketing analytics SDKs in the app code that send your data to those providers.
• We do not require you to create a Loopdrop account to use the app.
• We do not describe operating Loopdrop backend services that collect the above data from the app over the network.

If these practices change in a future version, we will update this Privacy Policy before or when those features ship.

How data is stored and shared

• On-device storage: Your Loopdrop-related data is stored on your iPhone (or other supported device) using standard iOS storage mechanisms, including shared App Group storage so app extensions can access what they need to enforce limits and show insights.
• No Loopdrop cloud: The current app design does not sync this data to Loopdrop-controlled servers.
• Apple: Apple’s operating system and Screen Time–related frameworks process data under Apple’s control. Their practices are described in Apple’s Privacy Policy.
• Backups: If you use iCloud Backup or other device backup features, copies of app data may be included in your backup according to Apple’s backup behavior. That is between you and Apple’s services, not a separate Loopdrop cloud product.

Notifications

Loopdrop may use local notifications to remind you of limits, warnings, or related events you configure. These are scheduled on your device. This policy does not describe remote push notifications from Loopdrop servers unless such a feature is added later.

Retention and deletion

Loopdrop data stored by the app on your device is generally removed when you delete the app from your device, subject to how iOS handles app data and any backups you keep. You can also adjust settings inside the app where the UI allows.

Children’s privacy

Loopdrop is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your region). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children for Loopdrop-operated online services in the manner described in this policy. If you believe a child has provided information to us in a way that concerns you, contact us at [email protected] and we will take reasonable steps to address it.

International users and your rights

Depending on where you live, privacy laws may give you rights such as access, correction, or deletion of personal data, or the right to object to certain processing. Because Loopdrop processes most information only on your device and does not operate the account or cloud data flows described above in the current version, many requests can be addressed by you directly (for example, by changing settings in the app or deleting the app). For questions or requests that relate to us as the app provider, contact [email protected].

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the data controller identified above is responsible for your personal data in connection with the app, to the extent we process any such data under applicable law.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version with a new “Last updated” date (and, where required, provide additional notice). Continued use of the app after changes means you accept the updated policy, except where applicable law requires your explicit consent.
