Privacy Policy

At TabTab LLC, we believe your personal data belongs to you. This Privacy Policy explains what information Ritual Lock collects, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data.

1. Information We Collect

Screen Time Data

Ritual Lock uses Apple's Screen Time API to function. This allows us to:

• Display shields on apps you select for blocking
• Track when you complete rituals to unlock apps
• Monitor unlock duration and re-apply shields when time expires

Important: We do not have access to what you do inside blocked apps. We only know that an app was selected for blocking and when it was unlocked.

Device Information

We collect a unique device identifier to:

• Enable cloud sync of your settings and statistics
• Rate-limit API requests to prevent abuse
• Provide customer support when needed

If you choose to sign in with Apple, we receive:

• A unique Apple user identifier
