Privacy Policy
The short version. PulseFast keeps your fasting data on your device. There are no accounts, no analytics and no servers.
This Privacy Policy explains how Flowlab Apps (“we”, “us”) handles information in PulseFast (the “app”). It is written to be read, not to be survived.
1. What we collect
Nothing. There is no sign-up, no login, no email address collected, no advertising identifier, no usage analytics and no crash reporting. No SDK in the app reports your behaviour to anyone.
Flowlab Apps operates no server that holds your PulseFast data, because no such data ever reaches us. That is not a policy decision we could quietly reverse in an update — there is no backend to send it to.
2. What the app stores, and where
Everything PulseFast saves is stored on the device you are using it on.
| What | Where | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Fasting sessions and eating windows | On your device | The core of the app — your timers, goals and history |
| Notes you attach to a fast | On your device | So a session still has context weeks later |
| Goals, presets and settings | On your device | To remember how you like the app configured |
| Hydration and weight entries you log | On your device | To chart trends alongside your fasts |
| Insight summaries | On your device | Calculated locally from the history above |
3. Permissions
PulseFast asks for the following, and nothing else. Every permission marked optional can be declined, and the app keeps working without it.
- Notifications — To tell you when a fasting window opens or closes. Reminders are scheduled on your device; nothing is sent through a push server.
- Run at startup — So reminders you already scheduled survive a device restart.
- Apple Health / Health Connect — read (optional) — If you grant it, PulseFast reads steps, walking distance and active energy to show activity next to your fast. It is never required, and the app works fully without it.
- Apple Health / Health Connect — write (optional) — If you grant it, hydration and calories you log in PulseFast can be saved back to Health so your other apps can see them.
4. Network activity
PulseFast has no backend. It does not send your fasting data, health data or notes anywhere. If you use the export or share feature, the file goes wherever you send it — that destination's own privacy terms then apply.
5. Third parties
None. There are no analytics SDKs, advertising libraries, crash reporters or trackers in the app.
We do not sell, rent, share or disclose your personal information, because we do not hold any of it.
6. What we declare to the app stores
Apple and Google each require a privacy declaration alongside the app listing. These are the answers we give for PulseFast, reproduced here so you can check them against the rest of this policy.
| Store declaration | Our answer |
|---|---|
| Apple App Store — App Privacy | Data Not Collected. Nothing is collected from this app, by us or by anyone else, so no data type is linked to you and none is used to track you. |
| Google Play — Data safety | No data collected. No data shared with third parties. No data is transmitted off the device, so there is none to encrypt in transit. Users can erase everything the app holds by deleting it. |
| Account deletion | Not applicable — the app has no account. See Data & Account Deletion. |
7. Children
PulseFast is not directed at children under 13, and it collects no personal information from anyone of any age. Because nothing is collected, nothing is collected from children.
8. Health data
Health data is treated as sensitive. PulseFast reads it only with your explicit permission, uses it only to display activity inside the app, and never transmits it off your device or uses it for advertising.
Health information is never used for advertising, marketing, or any purpose other than displaying it to you inside the app, and it is never shared with a third party or with us.
9. Your rights and your choices
Privacy laws including the GDPR and the CCPA give you rights to access, correct, export and delete personal data a company holds about you. Flowlab Apps holds no personal data about PulseFast users, so there is nothing for us to produce, correct or erase on request.
You remain in full control of the data on your own device:
- Delete individual items from inside the app.
- Remove the app to delete its local data, subject to your device's own backup and restore settings.
- Revoke any permission at any time from your device's system settings.
We do not sell personal information and never have. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising.
10. Security
Because your data stays on your device, its security rests on your device's own protections — your passcode, your biometric lock and your operating system's storage encryption. Keep your device updated and locked.
11. Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the revised version will be published at this address with a new date at the top. If a future version of PulseFast ever begins collecting data, this policy will be updated before that version is released, and the app will ask for your consent in-app.
