Privacy Policy

Last Updated: April 19, 2026

Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how Meltime ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you use our mobile application (the "App"). Meltime is a minimalist focus timer with a calming liquid visualization, Live Activity support, and saved presets. We are committed to protecting your privacy and keeping the app's data footprint as small as the app itself.

Information we collect

1. Information you provide directly

During onboarding and regular use of the App, we may collect:

  • Onboarding preferences: your stated goal, pain points you relate to, and the liquid colour you choose
  • Timer preferences: saved presets, default durations, notification and sound settings
  • Feedback and feature requests you submit through the app
  • Subscription status for access to premium features

2. Information automatically collected

  • Device information: platform (iOS), operating system version, app version, device model
  • Anonymous usage analytics collected via PostHog: onboarding steps viewed and selections made (goal, pain points, chosen liquid colour), timer events (started, paused, completed) with duration and selected colours
