Privacy Policy

Overview

Focus Dot is a macOS menu bar application developed by Good Bar. It is designed to help you stay focused using the pomodoro technique. We take your privacy seriously and have built the app with privacy as a core principle.

Data Collection

Focus Dot does not collect any data. Specifically:

• No personal information is collected
• No usage analytics or telemetry is collected
• No data is shared with third parties
• No advertising identifiers are used
• No cookies or tracking technologies are used

Data Storage

All app data is stored locally on your Mac using macOS UserDefaults. This data never leaves your device.

The following information is stored locally:

• Your work duration setting
• Your break duration setting
• Your notification preferences
• Your launch-at-login preference

Network Access

Focus Dot does not connect to the internet. The app does not make any network requests and does not require an internet connection to function.

Third-Party Services

Focus Dot does not integrate with or send data to any third-party services, SDKs, or frameworks beyond the standard macOS system frameworks provided by Apple.

App Sandbox

Focus Dot runs within the macOS App Sandbox, which limits the app's access to system resources and other apps. The app only accesses what it needs to function: displaying a menu bar icon, showing a popover, storing preferences locally, and optionally sending local notifications.

Children's Privacy

Focus Dot does not collect data from anyone, including children under the age of 13. The app is safe for users of all ages.

Changes to This Policy

If we make changes to this privacy policy, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. Since Focus Dot does not collect data, we do not anticipate significant changes.
