Privacy Policy
Last updated: 1 July 2026
AltShiftBase makes small, focused apps for Mac and iOS. Our approach to privacy is simple: the apps collect nothing. This policy covers every AltShiftBase app and this website.
The Apps
- We don’t collect, store, or share your personal data. There are no accounts and no sign-in.
- Your data stays on your device, using Apple’s standard local storage (Core Data / UserDefaults).
- Optional iCloud sync, where offered, stores data in your private iCloud container — tied to your Apple ID and not accessible to us.
- No analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs, and no crash reports sent to any server.
- Exports are yours. Any file you export (e.g. CSV) is created at your request and stays under your control.
Because the apps collect nothing, there is nothing for us to sell, share, or lose.
This Website
This website uses Google Analytics to understand anonymous, aggregate traffic (such as page views). It may set cookies for this purpose. No personally identifiable information is collected, and this data is never linked to your use of any app. You can block analytics with your browser or an ad/tracker blocker.
Children’s Privacy
Our apps are safe for all ages. We do not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children under 13 — because we don’t collect information at all.
Per-App Notes
Individual apps may include app-specific details. Where they differ, the app’s own notes apply in addition to the above.
- Daily Focus — Timer sessions, tags, and preferences are stored locally (with optional private iCloud sync). CSV export is user-initiated; exported files remain under your control.
Changes
If this policy changes, we’ll update it here with a new date.
