Privacy Policy

Last updated: 13 November 2026

This policy explains what data AtaForge ("we", "us") collects when you use ADHD Focus Life (the "App"), why we collect it, and the choices you have. We collect only what the App needs to work.

1. Who we are

ADHD Focus Life is developed and operated by AtaForge, the data controller for the data described here. Contact: [email protected].

2. Data we collect

Account data

• When you sign in with Apple or Google: a unique account identifier from that provider, your email address (for Apple this may be a private relay address) and, if you share it, your name.

Device data

• Platform (iOS/Android), device model, operating system version, app version, language and time zone. We use this to run, support and debug the App.

Approximate location at sign-up

• When your account is created we record the IP address of that request and derive an approximate country and city from it using an offline database on our own server. No third-party location service is contacted and we never collect precise (GPS) location.

Your content

• Tasks, mood entries, focus sessions and brain check-ins you create, so they can be backed up and synced across your devices. This content is private to your account.

Purchases

• If you subscribe, Apple or Google processes the payment. We receive your subscription status (product, price, currency, store country, renewal and expiration dates, transaction identifiers) through our subscription provider RevenueCat. We never see your card or payment details.

Advertising

• Free users may see ads served by Google AdMob. AdMob may use device identifiers and similar technologies to show and measure ads. On iOS we ask for permission through Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt; in the EEA, UK and Switzerland we ask for consent through Google's consent tools. If you decline, ads are non-personalised. Premium users do not see ads.

Body doubling

• Body doubling rooms let up to four people focus "side by side". There is no audio, video, camera, microphone or chat. Other members of your room see only your first name and last initial (for example "Ayşe K."), the task category you picked (work, study, home, creative, admin or other), your status (focusing, on a break, idle), when your current focus timer ends, and the emoji reactions you send. Your email and full name are never shown.
• We store room membership, these status updates and reactions on our own servers to run the feature. Reactions are deleted after 1 hour; room and presence records are deleted within 7 days after a room closes. We also keep a record of when you joined a room to apply the free-plan limit of one session per day.

Notifications

• If you enable notifications, we store your device's push token to deliver reminders.

3. How we use data

• To create and secure your account and keep you signed in.
• To sync your content across devices.
• To provide premium features and verify your subscription.
• To operate body doubling rooms (presence, status and reactions only).
• To show ads to free users (with your choices respected).
• To understand aggregate usage (e.g. how many new users per country), provide support, prevent abuse and fix problems.

We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your tasks, mood or focus content for advertising.

4. Legal bases (EEA/UK users)

We process data to perform our contract with you (providing the App), on our legitimate interests (security, fraud prevention, improving the App), with your consent (personalised ads, notifications, camera/microphone) and to comply with legal obligations.

5. Service providers

• Apple and Google — sign-in, app distribution and payments.
• RevenueCat — subscription management.
• Google AdMob — advertising for free users.
• Our hosting provider — stores the App's database on servers we control.
• Google (Gmail) — operational emails to our own team.

These providers process data on our behalf or under their own privacy policies, and may process it outside your country with appropriate safeguards.

6. Retention

We keep your data while your account exists. When you delete your account, your account and all associated data are permanently deleted from our database immediately. Copies may remain in database backups for up to 30 days and with providers (e.g. Apple/Google purchase records) as required by law.

7. Your rights

You can access, correct, export or delete your data and object to or restrict certain processing. You can delete your account in the App at any time (see Delete account) or email [email protected]. You may also complain to your local data protection authority.

8. Children

The App is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 where local law requires) and we do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child has given us data, contact us and we will delete it.

9. Security

Data is transmitted over HTTPS, tokens are stored hashed, and access to production systems is restricted. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your data.

10. Health disclaimer

ADHD Focus Life is a productivity and self-reflection tool. It is not a medical device and does not provide diagnosis or treatment.

11. Changes

We may update this policy. We will change the date above and, for significant changes, notify you in the App.
