Illuminus Focus Privacy Policy
Effective October 22, 2026. Illuminus Focus is operated by Cameron Halliday ("we"). Contact: cameron.a.halliday98@gmail.com.
The short version
Illuminus Focus works without an account. If you never sign in, your tasks, sessions, notes, goals and settings stay on your device and we never receive them. We don't show ads, we don't track you across apps or websites, and we don't sell data.
Data on your device
Without an account, Illuminus Focus stores everything locally: tasks, study sessions and notes, weekly goals, timer state and settings. Timer reminders are scheduled as local notifications on your device. You can export a backup file at any time. Deleting the app (or clearing site data on the web) removes this data; we cannot recover it.
If you create an account
- Account data: your email address, an account identifier, and the sign-in methods you link (email and password, Google or Sign in with Apple). With Sign in with Apple you may choose to share a private relay email instead of your address.
- Sync data (paid Sync only): when Sync is active, your tasks, session history and notes, weekly goals and active timer state are uploaded so they're available on your other signed-in devices.
- Subscription data: for a web subscription, Stripe customer and subscription identifiers and status. For an App Store subscription, Apple transaction identifiers, product, status and renewal dates, verified with Apple. Card details are handled by Stripe or Apple; we never receive them.
We use this data only to provide sign-in, Sync and your subscription, and to keep the service secure.
Service providers
- Supabase stores accounts and synced data and handles sign-in.
- Cloudflare hosts the web app.
- Stripe processes web payments.
- Apple processes App Store payments and Sign in with Apple.
- Google provides Google sign-in if you choose it.
Our providers keep operational logs, such as IP addresses and request times, to run and secure their services. These providers may process data in the United States and other countries.
How long we keep data
- Active account: until you delete it.
- Sync lapses: your synced data stays readable and exportable for 365 days after your last paid access ends, so you can download or resubscribe. We don't currently delete it automatically after that period; you can delete it at any time by deleting your account.
- Account deletion (Settings → Delete account): your account and all synced data are deleted. A web subscription is cancelled immediately. An App Store subscription must be cancelled in your Apple subscription settings; we can't cancel it for you. To stop a subscription being reattached to another account, we keep only its Apple transaction identifier, with no link to you. Stripe and Apple keep their own payment records as the law requires.
Your choices and rights
You can use Illuminus Focus without an account, export your data, and delete your account in the app. You can also contact us to access, correct or delete your data, or to ask a question. Depending on where you live, you may have further rights, including complaining to a data-protection authority.
Children
Illuminus Focus isn't directed to children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their personal data.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update it here and change the effective date. For material changes, we'll also tell you in the app.
