Privacy Policy

Effective Date: November 2025

At Pause, your privacy is extremely important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how the app handles information and ensures that your data remains private and secure.


1. Information We Do Not Collect

Pause is designed to protect your privacy.

  • We do not collect, store, or share any personal information.
  • We do not collect chat history, habit logs, or device data.
  • All coaching, tools, and AI interactions occur locally on your device.
  • We do not track your activity.
  • We do not use third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking tools.

2. In-App Purchases

Pause uses Apple's secure in-app purchase system (StoreKit) for subscriptions such as Pause Premium.

  • All payment and subscription data is processed directly by Apple.
  • We never have access to your payment details or Apple ID information.
  • You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time through your App Store account settings.

3. Third-Party Services

Pause does not integrate any third-party SDKs, analytics services, or advertising frameworks. If external links are added in the future (such as to a website or social media), those destinations will be covered by their own privacy policies.


4. Children's Privacy

Pause does not target or knowingly collect data from children under 13. If a parent or guardian believes that their child has interacted with the app inappropriately, they may contact us for assistance.


5. Data Security

Since Pause does not collect or store personal data, there is no risk of unauthorized access or data leakage. All app operations occur securely within Apple's ecosystem.


6. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect improvements or changes in regulations. Any updates will be posted on this page and included in the next app version.

  • The app is provided "as-is" for personal use only.
  • You agree not to reverse engineer, modify, or distribute the app without permission.
  • Pause is not a substitute for professional mental health treatment.
