Information stored by the app
Focus Sessions stores your session history, journal reflections, mood selections, saved presets, appearance preferences, achievements, and Spotify playlist link locally on your device. The app does not require a Focus Sessions account and does not send your focus history or journal entries to a Focus Sessions server.
Spotify connection
If you choose to connect Spotify, your Spotify display name is stored locally. Spotify access and refresh tokens are securely stored in the iPhone Keychain. Focus Sessions does not store a Spotify password or Spotify Client Secret. Playback is handled by Spotify and is subject to the Spotify Privacy Policy.
Notifications and widgets
With your permission, Focus Sessions may send timer and achievement notifications. You can disable these in iPhone Settings at any time. The home-screen widget shares limited focus totals with the main app through Apple’s App Group storage so it can display your progress.
Exporting and deleting your data
You can export your journal entries using the sharing options available on your device. To erase your data, open Focus Sessions and go to Settings → Your Data → Delete All App Data, then confirm. This removes session history, journal entries, presets, preferences, achievements, widget totals, scheduled notifications, and stored Spotify credentials from the device.
Third-party services
When you use Spotify or an iOS sharing destination, information you choose to send is governed by that service’s privacy practices. Focus Sessions does not sell your personal information.
Website support messages
If you use the support form on this website, the name, email address, topic, and message you provide are processed by Web3Forms so the message can be delivered to Focus Sessions support. Web3Forms states that submissions on its free plan are securely stored for 30 days. Please do not include sensitive health, financial, or account information.

Children’s privacy
Focus Sessions is not directed toward collecting personal information from children. Because the app stores its core data locally and does not operate user accounts, we do not knowingly collect children’s personal information on our servers.
Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated as the app evolves. The effective date at the top of this page will reflect the latest version.
