1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how TaskTimer Plus ("the App"), developed by JTR Labs ("we," "us," "our"), handles information. The App is designed with a zero-collection architecture: no personal data is collected, transmitted, or stored outside your device.
By using TaskTimer Plus, you agree to this policy. If you have questions, contact us at [email protected].
2. No Personal Data Collected
TaskTimer Plus does not collect any personal information. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Name, email address, or any account credentials
- Device identifiers or hardware identifiers collected by JTR Labs directly. (Google AdMob, our ad partner, may collect your advertising identifier — see section 4.)
- IP addresses or network information
- Usage patterns, session data, or behavioral analytics
- Timer history or task data
There is no JTR Labs server that receives data from the App. Note: Google AdMob (used for advertising) does make network requests to serve ads — see section 4 for details.
3. Permissions
The only system permission TaskTimer Plus requests is:
- Notifications (POST_NOTIFICATIONS) — used solely to send you an alert when a timer you set has finished. This permission is optional; if denied, timers will still function but you will not receive a notification when they complete.
The App does not request and has no use for:
- Location (no GPS, no network location)
- Contacts or calendar
- Camera or microphone
- Storage access beyond the App's own sandboxed data
- Phone state or call logs
- Any other system permission
4. Advertising (Google AdMob)
TaskTimer Plus is free to use and is supported by advertising through Google AdMob (provided by Google LLC). AdMob may collect the following to serve and measure ads:
- Your device's advertising identifier (IDFA on iOS, GAID on Android)
- IP address (used to derive approximate location for ad targeting)
- Device information (make, model, operating system version, app version)
- Ad interaction data (impressions, clicks, and conversions)
This data is collected and processed by Google under Google's Privacy Policy. JTR Labs does not receive or store any of this data directly.
On iOS, Apple's App Tracking Transparency (ATT) framework will prompt you before AdMob can access your advertising identifier. You may deny this without affecting core app functionality.
To opt out of personalized ads: on iOS go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Apple Advertising → turn off Personalized Ads; on Android go to Settings → Google → Ads → opt out of Ads Personalization.
Beyond AdMob, TaskTimer Plus contains no analytics SDKs, no crash reporting services that transmit data off-device, and no other third-party tracking libraries or social media SDKs.
5. Data Stored on Your Device
The App may store your timer presets and preferences locally on your device so they persist between sessions. This data never leaves your device and is not accessible to JTR Labs. You can clear it at any time by clearing the App's data in your device settings or by uninstalling the App.
6. GDPR and CCPA
JTR Labs does not collect personal data directly. However, Google AdMob (our advertising partner) may process personal data as a data controller under its own terms. For requests related to AdMob data, please refer to Google's Privacy Policy. For any other privacy concern, contact us at [email protected].
If you have a privacy question or concern, please contact us at [email protected]. Existing users may also reach us at [email protected].
7. Children's Privacy
TaskTimer Plus is not directed at children under 13. The app contains advertising served by Google AdMob. We do not knowingly allow children under 13 to use the app without parental consent. Users under 13 should obtain parental consent before downloading apps. If you have concerns, contact us at [email protected].
8. Changes to This Policy
If we make material changes to this privacy policy, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the App after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
