Privacy Policy
Last updated: 29 April 2026
What we collect
Drowse does not require an account and does not collect names, email addresses, account details, sleep data, or health data. We collect limited technical and usage data to keep the app working, understand how it is used, and improve it. We do not track you across apps or websites.
Health data
Although Drowse is listed in the Health & Fitness category as a sleep aid, it does not access, collect, store, or share any health data. This includes, but is not limited to, sleep patterns, sleep duration, heart rate, biometric data, Health Connect data, or any other data defined as health data under Google Play policies. Drowse does not use Health Connect and does not request Android health or fitness permissions. The app plays ambient sounds to help you fall asleep. It does not monitor, measure, or track your sleep or health in any way.
Analytics
We collect limited, privacy-friendly app usage analytics to understand how Drowse is used and improve the app. This may include events such as which screens are visited, which sounds are selected, how the timer is used, app version, device type, and operating system. We do not use analytics to collect names, email addresses, account details, health data, or sleep data.
Website analytics
The Drowse website uses lightweight pageview statistics to understand basic website traffic. We do not use this to track you across websites.
Crash and error reporting
We collect crash reports and error diagnostics to keep the app stable. Crash reports may include technical information such as device model, operating system version, app version, error logs, and diagnostic context. We do not intentionally include names, email addresses, account details, health data, or sleep data in crash reports.
Data storage
Your preferences and app state, such as selected sound, timer setting, and usage counters, are stored locally on your device. We do not have access to this local app data. If you uninstall the app, locally stored preferences are removed with it.
Children
Drowse is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
Your privacy rights
Because Drowse does not use accounts, we usually cannot identify a specific user in our analytics or crash systems. If you contact us with a privacy-related request, we will try to help where technically possible.
Changes to this policy
If we make changes to this policy, we will update the date at the top of this page.
