Welcome to Alarme ("we," "our," or "us"). We create intentional morning routines and reliable waking tools. Your privacy is fundamental to our product philosophy. This Privacy Policy details the data we handle, how it is processed, and your rights when using the Alarme mobile app.
1. Information We Collect
A. Information You Provide Directly
- Account Information: When you sign in using Google or email, we collect your name, email address, and unique user ID provided by Firebase Authentication. Guest usage without an account is supported.
- Alarm Configurations: Alarm times, labels, repeat days, challenge preferences (Visual Pattern, Walking Challenge), sound tones, and custom timer presets.
- Support Inquiries: If you contact us at moderntechart4@gmail.com, we receive your email and message contents to assist you.
B. Data Processed Locally on Device
- Accelerometer & Physical Movement: When using the Walking Challenge, Alarme evaluates accelerometer readings in real-time to verify walking cadence. This sensor data is processed entirely on-device and is never recorded, transmitted, or shared.
- Wake-Up Analytics: Challenge duration, accuracy, and wake-up scores are calculated on-device. If logged in, this summary score is synced to your private Cloud Firestore profile so you can monitor your alertness trends.
- Custom Ringtones: Selected audio files from your device are copied directly into the app's sandboxed internal storage directory (
filesDir/custom_ringtones).
C. Subscriptions & Payment Data
Subscriptions for Alarme Pro are processed via Google Play In-App Billing and managed through RevenueCat. We never store, process, or see your credit card or payment card details. All billing is securely processed by Google.
2. Third-Party Service Providers
| Provider | Purpose | Privacy Link |
|---|---|---|
| Google Firebase (Auth & Firestore) | Secure user login & encrypted cloud alarm sync | Firebase Privacy |
| Google Play Services | In-app purchases, exact alarm scheduling | Google Privacy |

3. Device Permissions We Request
- Notifications (POST_NOTIFICATIONS): Deliver heads-up alerts when alarms ring and keep timer statuses visible.
- Exact Alarms (SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM / USE_EXACT_ALARM): Required to ensure alarms fire down to the exact second, even when the device is in low-power Doze mode.
- Start at Boot (RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED): Reschedules active alarms automatically after device restarts or system software updates.
- Full-Screen Intent (USE_FULL_SCREEN_INTENT): Displays the ringing alarm and wake-up challenge over the lock screen.
- Foreground Service: Ensures alarm and timer audio plays uninterrupted without being killed by Android memory optimization.
4. Your Privacy Rights (GDPR & CCPA)
Users in the European Economic Area (EEA), UK, and California have rights to access, rectify, or delete their personal data, or export their data. You can delete your cloud data at any time directly in the app via Account → Delete Account & Cloud Data, or by emailing moderntechart4@gmail.com.

Alarme provides scheduled alarm clocks, cognitive and physical wake-up challenges (Visual Pattern and Walking Challenges), stopwatches, countdown timers, and optional cloud synchronization.
2. Health & Physical Safety Disclaimer
Safety Warning: The Walking Challenge requires walking to dismiss the alarm. Only use this challenge if you are physically capable of walking safely upon waking. Make sure your surroundings are well-lit and free of obstacles.
Alarme is a habit-building routine tool. It is not a medical device and is not intended to treat, diagnose, or manage medical sleep conditions or insomnia. Consult a medical professional for sleep disorders.
3. Alarm Reliability & Limitations
While Alarme implements exact alarm system APIs, we are not responsible for missed alarms resulting from:

- Muted alarm volume, silenced device speakers, or active Do Not Disturb overrides
- Device reboot without unlocking the first-time credential storage
Alarme is provided on an "AS IS" basis. We are not liable for missed meetings, travel flights, shifts, or any resulting damages.
