Privacy Policy for Alarm Loud

Last updated: October 25, 2026

Overview

Alarm Loud is an iOS alarm clock that wakes you with mission-based challenges. It has no accounts, no ads, and no tracking. Your alarms, missions, and sleep records stay on your device. The only data that leaves your device is what’s needed to process and verify in-app purchases, described below.

What We Collect

Alarm Loud itself does not collect personal data, and we (the developer) do not run any servers that receive your data. The app:

• Has no analytics or crash reporting SDKs
• Has no advertising or ad networks
• Does not create an account or require registration
• Does not track you across other apps or websites

In-App Purchases (Apple and RevenueCat)

Subscriptions are sold through Apple’s App Store. Apple processes payment; we never see your payment details.

To check whether you have an active subscription, the app uses RevenueCat, a subscription management service. RevenueCat receives:

• An anonymous app user ID generated on your device (not linked to your name, email, or Apple ID)
• Your purchase and subscription history for Alarm Loud (from Apple)
• Basic device and app information needed to validate purchases, such as app version, iOS version, locale, and IP address
• Which screen a subscription offer was shown from (for example, onboarding or settings), used to understand which offers work

This data is used only to unlock premium features and to measure subscription performance. It is not used for advertising and is not sold. See RevenueCat’s privacy policy: https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy

Permissions

Alarm Loud asks for permissions only for its alarm and mission features:

Permission	Purpose
Alarms (iOS 26.1 and later)	Ringing your alarms through Silent mode and Focus until you get up
Notifications	Alarm alerts on earlier iOS versions, wake-up checks, and bedtime reminders
Camera	Only when you create or complete a Photo, QR code, or Barcode wake-up mission
Motion & Fitness	Only on-device while you complete a Shake, Step, or Squat wake-up mission
Background Audio	Playing alarm and sleep sounds while the app is in the background or the device is locked

You can grant or revoke any permission at any time in iOS Settings.

Data Stored on Your Device

These are stored only on your device (Apple’s SwiftData, on-device storage):

• Alarm settings (times, repeat days, labels, sounds, missions)
• Mission settings (math difficulty, photo reference images, QR/barcode values, step/shake/squat targets)
• Sleep records (bedtime, wake time, duration)
• Alarm history (snooze counts, completed missions)
• App preferences (default snooze duration, bedtime reminder settings)

This data is never sent to us or to RevenueCat. It is included in your device backups (iCloud or computer) like other app data, under Apple’s backup protections.

Photo Mission Privacy

• Reference photos and photos taken to dismiss an alarm are compared entirely on-device using Apple’s Vision framework.
• Photos are never uploaded or transmitted.
• Reference photos are stored locally with the alarm.

Motion Data Privacy

Motion data (accelerometer readings, step counts) is:

• Accessed only while you are completing a Shake, Step, or Squat mission
• Processed entirely on-device
• Never stored or transmitted

Data Deletion

To delete all data stored on your device, open the app and go to Settings (gear icon on the Alarms screen) → Delete All Local Data. This removes alarms, missions and reference photos, alarm history, sleep records, the active sleep session, and reminders. Deleting the app also removes all of it.

Purchase records are kept by Apple and RevenueCat as needed to provide your subscription. To ask for RevenueCat data linked to your anonymous ID to be deleted, contact us at the address below.

Children’s Privacy

Alarm Loud is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from them.

Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes, the “Last updated” date above will be revised.
