BreathOn Privacy Policy
Last updated: 7/15/2025
Overview
BreathOn is an offline-first breathing exercise and meditation app designed to help you manage stress, improve focus, and enhance overall well-being. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our app.
Information We Collect
Offline-First Design
BreathOn is designed to work completely offline. Most of your data is stored locally on your device and never transmitted to our servers.
- Breathing session data is stored locally on your device
- Practice preferences and customizations remain on your device
- Progress tracking and analytics are maintained locally
- No internet connection required for core app functionality
Information You Provide
- Breathing exercise preferences and custom patterns
- Practice scheduling and notification settings
- App configuration and personalization choices
- Feedback and support communications (only when you contact us)
Limited Automatically Collected Information
We collect minimal information, and only when necessary:
- Basic device information for app compatibility (iOS version, device model)
- Subscription status and purchase verification (through Apple App Store)
- Crash reports (only if app crashes occur and you opt-in to share them)
- General app usage patterns (anonymized and aggregated only)
How We Use Your Information
- Local Experience: To provide personalized breathing exercises stored on your device
- Subscription Management: To verify premium feature access and manage subscriptions
- App Stability: To identify and fix technical issues when crash reports are shared
- Customer Support: To respond to your questions and provide assistance when contacted
- General Improvement: To understand app usage patterns through anonymized data
Data Storage and Processing
Local Storage
Your breathing sessions, progress, and preferences are stored securely on your device using iOS native storage.
Minimal Cloud Data
Only subscription status and basic app functionality data is processed through secure servers when necessary.
Internet Connection Requirements
BreathOn requires internet connection only for:
- Initial subscription purchase through Apple App Store
- Restoring purchases on new devices
- Subscription status verification (periodic and minimal)
- Sending crash reports (if you choose to share them)
All core breathing and meditation features work completely offline.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. We may share information only in these extremely limited circumstances:
- Apple App Store: Subscription and purchase verification through Apple's secure systems
- Legal Requirements: When required by law or to protect our rights and users' safety
- Business Transfers: In the unlikely event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets
Important: Because BreathOn is designed to work offline, the vast majority of your data never leaves your device.
Data Security
Device Security
Your data is protected by iOS native security features and device encryption.
Minimal Data Transfer
Only essential subscription data is transmitted, using encrypted connections.
No Personal Data Collection
We don't collect personal identifiers, breathing patterns, or meditation content.
Local Processing
All breathing exercises and progress tracking happen locally on your device.
Your Rights and Choices
- Data Control: Your breathing data remains on your device under your control
- Deletion: Delete the app to remove all local data, or contact us for server data removal
- Opt-out: Disable crash reporting and analytics in app settings
- Subscription Management: Manage subscriptions through your Apple ID settings
- Data Access: Request information about any data we may have collected
Offline Benefits for Privacy
By designing BreathOn to work offline, we automatically provide you with maximum privacy. Your breathing patterns, meditation sessions, and personal progress remain private on your device.

Subscription and Purchase Data
BreathOn offers premium features through Apple App Store subscriptions. Subscription-related data is handled as follows:
- Purchase transactions are processed securely by Apple
- We receive only subscription status information from Apple
- No payment information is stored or processed by us
- Subscription management is handled through your Apple ID
- We verify subscription status periodically to enable premium features
Children's Privacy
BreathOn is suitable for users of all ages, including children, because of its offline-first design and minimal data collection. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The app's educational breathing exercises can be safely used by children under parental guidance.
International Data Transfers
Because BreathOn works offline and collects minimal data, international data transfers are extremely limited. Any subscription verification data may be processed in different countries through Apple's systems, which have appropriate privacy safeguards.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new privacy policy in the app and updating the "Last updated" date above. Given our offline-first approach, most changes will likely involve clarifications rather than fundamental data handling changes.
