Privacy Policy
Last updated
This Privacy Policy explains how Transform handles information in the Transform app and on this website. Transform is a self-help tool; it is not a monitoring, remote-control, or advertising product.
We aim to keep sensitive app information on your device. This policy also explains the limited, anonymous website analytics used to understand whether the public website is working.
1. App data and optional protection
Check-ins, meditation logs, personal settings, goals, local rules, protection status, selection counts, blocking statistics, and other content you create in the app are stored locally on your device. We do not upload this content to our servers or use it for advertising or profiling.
Website Protection and app blocking are optional self-management features. They work only after you enable them and grant the relevant system permission. They are not designed for monitoring other people, parental remote management, enterprise device management, or remote control.
- Android Website Protection uses local VPN/DNS filtering. It processes domain names needed for matching local rules, not full URL paths, webpage content, screen content, or text you enter. DNS queries, browsing records, and blocking details are not uploaded.
- Android app blocking checks locally whether the foreground app matches a list you selected. The app picker may read launchable app names, package identifiers, and icons locally to show your choices. We do not read other apps’ content, chats, account information, screen content, or exact usage records.
- iOS limits use Apple Screen Time frameworks, including Family Controls, Managed Settings, and Device Activity. Restrictions are enforced on-device; we do not receive your detailed device activity, browsing history, or the full names of selected items.
- Blocking counts and category summaries are stored locally for display. They do not include individual domain names. You can clear local rules and statistics or turn protection off at any time.
2. Permissions
We explain each permission before you enable the related optional feature. You may decline a permission; this affects only that feature, not the app’s other basic functions.
- Android VPN permission: creates a local VPN connection for DNS filtering; it does not route traffic to our servers or monitor your network activity.
- Android Usage Access and overlay permission: used only to compare the foreground app against your selected blocking list and show a local blocking screen. They are not used to read content or simulate clicks.
- Android foreground-service, notification, exact-reminder, and battery-setting guidance: used to keep voluntarily enabled local protection and reminders reliable. We do not use reminders for advertising or tracking.
- iOS Family Controls, Managed Settings, and Device Activity: used only for the limits you voluntarily select through Apple’s system capabilities.
- We do not use Android AccessibilityService to read screen content or control other apps.
3. Payments, backup, and feedback
Subscriptions are processed through official store payment systems, such as Google Play Billing or the Apple App Store, and RevenueCat for membership verification. These providers may process receipts, subscription status, product identifiers, anonymous identifiers, device information, app version, and other data necessary to complete purchases, restore purchases, prevent fraud, and verify benefits.
Import and export are local features. Encrypted backup files are generated on your device and are shared only when you choose a destination. We do not automatically upload backups or access files you have not selected.
If you email us, we receive the address and message you send, together with any operating-system type or app-version information included in the message, to answer feedback or troubleshoot.
4. Website analytics
This website uses Firebase Analytics (Google Analytics) to understand aggregate website use. Analytics is enabled by default on this site. It uses analytics storage such as cookies or similar browser storage to measure visits and interactions.
We send only these fixed events: page views, App Store or Google Play link clicks, a guide reaching 50% reading depth, and clicks on a guide reference link. Event parameters are limited to language, page category, fixed guide slug, source, store, and reading depth.
We do not intentionally send names, email addresses, account IDs, user IDs, free-form text, complete external URLs, query parameters, app records, browsing records, or information that describes an adult-content concern. Analytics data is retained for 14 months. Advertising storage, ad user data, and ad personalization are disabled; Google Signals, remarketing audiences, BigQuery export, and unplanned enhanced measurement are disabled in our analytics settings.
You can limit analytics storage through your browser settings or privacy controls. Blocking analytics may reduce our ability to understand aggregate site use but does not affect the website’s core content, language links, or download links.
6. Retention and deletion
Local app data remains on your device until you uninstall the app, clear app data or cache, or delete the relevant local rules, statistics, or files in the app. Backup files you choose to share must be deleted in the destination you selected.
Subscription and transaction information is retained by the relevant payment providers only as needed for subscription services and legal or financial obligations. Website analytics data is retained for 14 months. You may contact us about subscription, transaction, feedback-email, or privacy questions.
7. Security and minors
We use reasonable safeguards for the information we handle. Because core app data is local, you should also protect your device with appropriate device security, such as a screen lock.
Transform is not intended for people under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe a minor has provided personal information without appropriate consent, contact us and we will address the request promptly.
8. Changes and contact
We may update this policy when the app, website, or applicable requirements change. The updated version takes effect when published. For material changes, we may provide an in-app notice or another appropriate notice.
For privacy questions, suggestions, or requests concerning subscription, transaction, feedback-email, or website analytics information, contact us at the address below.
Thank you for using Transform. We will continue to handle privacy-sensitive information with care.
