Visual Timer is a kids visual timer app provided by the developer listed for the app on the App Store ("we," "us," or "our").
This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use Visual Timer.
Visual Timer is currently offered as a free app. We may add optional paid features in the future.
Visual Timer does not require a user account, does not ask for a child's name or email address, and does not sell personal information.
Visual Timer primarily stores information locally on your device. This may include:
This information is used only to provide the app's timer, routine, and settings features.
We recommend that you do not enter sensitive personal information into activity names, routine names, or notes.
Visual Timer stores timer, activity, routine, and settings data on your device using Apple's local storage technologies, including SwiftData, UserDefaults, Keychain, and app group storage for Live Activities.
We do not operate a separate backend server for your routine or timer data.
We cannot view, edit, or delete data that is stored only on your device.
If you enable timer sounds or completion alerts, Visual Timer may ask for permission to send local notifications.
These notifications are scheduled on your device to alert you when a timer finishes.
You can disable notification access at any time in iOS Settings.
Visual Timer may use Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode through Apple's secure authentication system to unlock timer controls.
Visual Timer does not receive or store your biometric data.
Biometric authentication is handled by iOS.
If you choose to use a PIN, Visual Timer stores a hashed version of the PIN with a salt in the device Keychain.
We do not store the plain PIN.
Visual Timer may use Apple Live Activities to show timer status on the Lock Screen or Dynamic Island.
Live Activity content may include:
This information is used to display the timer experience on your device.
We do not use Live Activity data for advertising or tracking.
Visual Timer uses RevenueCat to prepare for and manage optional paid features, purchases, subscriptions, entitlements, and purchase restoration.
RevenueCat may create an anonymous app user identifier and process purchase or subscription status if purchases are offered or made.
We do not send children's names, routine names, activity names, notes, or timer content to RevenueCat.
We do not use RevenueCat for third-party advertising or cross-app tracking.
If you choose to share diagnostics with app developers through Apple, Apple may provide crash logs or diagnostic information to help us understand and fix app issues.
This may include:
We use this information only to improve app stability and performance.
Visual Timer does not ask for or collect:

Visual Timer may use the following third-party or platform services:
These services process information according to their own privacy policies and platform rules.
Data stored locally in Visual Timer remains on your device until you edit it, reset it, or delete the app.

To remove local data, you can:
For purchase-related information processed by Apple or RevenueCat, deletion and access requests may depend on Apple's and RevenueCat's systems and applicable law.
We use Apple platform security features such as local device storage, Keychain, and system authentication where appropriate.
However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to:
Because Visual Timer does not use user accounts and stores most app data locally on your device, we may not be able to identify or access your local app data.
