1. Introduction
Selfpause (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application and website (collectively, the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
2. Information We Collect
Personal Information
When you create an account, we may collect your name, email address, and profile information. If you subscribe to a premium plan, our third-party payment processors (Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or Stripe) handle your payment information — we do not store credit card numbers.
Usage Data
We automatically collect information about how you interact with the Service, including device type, operating system, app version, session duration, and feature usage. This helps us improve the app experience.
Audio Recordings
If you use our recording feature, your audio affirmations are stored locally on your device by default. If you enable cloud sync, recordings are encrypted and stored securely on our servers. We never access, listen to, or share your recordings.
3. How We Use Your Information
- To provide, maintain, and improve the Service
- To personalize your experience and deliver relevant content
- To process transactions and manage subscriptions
- To send you updates, security alerts, and support messages
- To analyze usage trends and optimize performance
- To detect, prevent, and address technical issues or fraud
4. Data Sharing & Third Parties
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share limited data with trusted service providers who help us operate the Service, including:
- Analytics providers (e.g., Google Analytics, Mixpanel) to understand app usage
- Cloud infrastructure (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud) for secure data storage
- Payment processors (Apple, Google, Stripe) for subscription management
These providers are contractually obligated to protect your data and may only use it to provide services to us.
5. Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with the Service. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or regulatory purposes.
6. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures, including encryption in transit (TLS/SSL) and at rest, to protect your personal information. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:
- Access, correct, or delete your personal data
- Object to or restrict certain processing activities
- Request a portable copy of your data
- Withdraw consent at any time (where processing is based on consent)
- Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@selfpause.com.
8. Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated policy on this page and updating the “Last updated” date. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
