Pocket Shift Privacy Policy
Your data stays close to home.
Pocket Shift is designed to work without accounts, analytics, or cloud sync. The app stores your sessions and settings
locally on your device so your practice stays private and lightweight.
Effective date: March 27, 2026
Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how Pocket Shift handles information when you use the app and the public website at
pocketshift.app.
Pocket Shift is a local-first app built to help you notice negative thought patterns through a simple daily coin-moving ritual.
Information the app collects
Pocket Shift does not require you to create an account and does not collect personal information through the app for the developer.
The app stores the following information only on your device:
- onboarding completion status
- your app settings
- your current daily session
- your local session history
Information not collected
Pocket Shift does not include:
- user accounts or sign-in
- advertising SDKs
- third-party analytics SDKs
- cloud backup or sync operated by the developer
- sale of personal information
Notifications
If you choose to enable reminders, Pocket Shift requests notification permission from your device. Reminder titles,
reminder body text, and reminder times are stored locally on your device so the reminder can be scheduled.
Notification permissions are controlled by your device settings and can be changed by you at any time.
Support email
If you contact support at [email protected], the information you
include in your email will be received and used only to respond to your request and provide support.
Website hosting
The public Pocket Shift website is hosted through infrastructure providers that may process routine web request data such as
IP address, browser details, and request logs as part of standard website delivery, security, and performance operations.
This website is intended to provide product, support, and privacy information. The Pocket Shift app itself remains local-first.
Data retention and deletion
Because Pocket Shift stores app data locally on your device, you can remove that data by using the in-app reset tools
or by deleting the app from your device.
Children's privacy
Pocket Shift is not built around collecting personal information from children. Because the app does not require accounts
and does not collect personal information through the app for the developer, there is no separate user profile maintained by the developer.
Changes to this policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect product, legal, or operational changes. If the policy changes,
the updated version will be posted at pocketshift.app/privacy/ with a new effective date.
