Your practice, your data

Most meditation apps know a suspicious amount about you

Open a typical mindfulness app and the privacy policy admits it: session frequency, mood check-ins, subscription status, device identifiers, sometimes location — all joined to an email address and kept to improve your experience. A history of when you feel anxious, joined to your identity, is not an abstract worry; it is a profile that exists and has a market price.

The alternative is not a better policy — it is no collection

This timer cannot sell your practice data because it never receives it. Sessions are recorded in your browser's local storage. The streak you see is computed on your device. Nothing about your practice is transmitted, because there is nothing to transmit it with: the site is static files, and the entire backend is the word no.

You still get the durable part of an account: the Export button produces a JSON backup of every session you have logged, and Import restores it anywhere. That file is yours in a way no cloud export ever is — it works without us.

What this buys you, concretely

No breach of ours can leak your practice history, because there is nothing on our side to breach. No acquisition can repurpose your practice data, because no such data exists outside your device. And no future paywall can hold your streak hostage — the timer you are using costs nothing to run and nothing to keep running.

A standard you can hold other tools to

Ask of any tool that touches your inner life: where does the data live, who can query it, and what happens to it if the company dies? If the answers make you uneasy, that is a design decision someone made — and one you can vote against with your attention.
