Privacy Policy

Thank you for choosing our Pace Timer. This Privacy Policy is designed to explain how we collect, use, share, and protect your personal information. Please read it carefully before using our app.

1. Information Collection

1.1 Device Information

When you use our Tomato Clock application, we may collect certain device - related information. This includes your device model, the operating system version, and a unique device identifier. We collect this information to ensure that the application functions properly on your device and to optimize the user experience.

1.2 Notification - related Information

Our application requires the notification bar permission to remind you to enter the focus mode. We will only obtain this permission when you explicitly allow it within the application settings. Once the permission is granted, we will collect some basic information related to the notification function. This includes the status of whether the notification is successfully sent to your device, and whether you have interacted with the notification (such as clicked on it to enter the application). This information is used to ensure the normal operation of the notification function and to improve the effectiveness of our reminders.

2. Information Use

2.1 Service Provision

The information we collect is primarily used to provide you with the core functions of the Tomato Clock. We use the collected data to accurately start, pause, and end the focus timer, and to send timely notifications to remind you to enter the focus mode or take breaks. For example, based on the device information and your usage settings, we can ensure that the timer works smoothly on your device and that the notifications are displayed in a timely and appropriate manner.

2.2 Product Optimization

We analyze the usage information to optimize the application. By understanding how often you use the focus mode, what time settings you prefer, and how you interact with the notifications, we can improve the user interface, make the timer more intuitive to use, and enhance the accuracy of the notifications. For instance, if we find that many users often miss the notification to enter the focus mode, we may adjust the notification sound, vibration intensity, or the time of sending the notification.

2.3 Data Analysis

We conduct data analysis on the collected information to gain insights for product improvement and new feature development. For example, by analyzing the usage frequency and time distribution of different user groups, we can plan to add new features such as group study mode or time - management reports, which can better meet the diverse needs of users.

3. Information Sharing

3.1 With User's Consent

We will not share your personal information with third parties without your explicit consent. However, if you agree to participate in a specific promotional activity or cooperation project jointly organized by us and a third - party partner, we may share relevant information with the third - party within the scope necessary for the activity.

3.2 Legal Requirements

We will disclose your information when required by law. For example, if we receive a valid legal subpoena or court order from a law - enforcement agency or other legal authority, we will provide the relevant information in accordance with the law.

3.3 Necessary for Service Provision

In some cases, we may share your information with third - party service providers who assist us in providing services. For example, we may share some anonymized usage data with a data - analysis service provider to help us analyze user behavior. These third - party service providers are required to keep your information confidential and use it only for the specific services we have specified.

4. Information Security

4.1 Organizational Measures

We have established strict internal management systems to protect your information. Only authorized employees are allowed to access your personal information, and they are required to abide by strict confidentiality agreements. We also conduct regular security training for employees to enhance their awareness of information security.

4.2 Risk Notification
