Privacy Policy

The Short Version

Breathe Easy does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Everything stays on your device. Starting with version 1.5, Breathe Easy sends anonymous diagnostics to help fix problems. You can turn this off in Settings at any time.

Data Storage

All breathing session data, settings, and history are stored locally on your device. Your breathing sessions and history are never sent to any server, cloud service, or third party; the only thing Breathe Easy sends is the anonymous diagnostics described below. There are no user accounts and no sign-up required.

Apple Health

Breathe Easy can save completed sessions to Apple Health as mindful minutes, but only if you turn this on in Settings and grant permission. HealthKit data is governed by Apple's privacy policy and never leaves your device through Breathe Easy. If you deny HealthKit access, the app continues to work normally.

Breathe Easy does not read any health data from Apple Health. It only writes mindful minutes for sessions you complete.

Apple Watch

Sessions you finish on Apple Watch are sent directly to Breathe Easy on your paired iPhone, using Apple's WatchConnectivity, so they appear in your history there. This goes between your own devices only; no server is involved.

Anonymous Diagnostics

Starting with version 1.5, Settings › Privacy has a “Share anonymous diagnostics” switch. It is on by default, and you can turn it off at any time. While it is on, Breathe Easy sends Idle Fusion's own diagnostics service:

• which screens you open and a few fixed in-app actions (not what they contain),
• crash and hang reports from iOS (MetricKit), and the type and code of errors the app catches,
• the app version, build, and iOS version, and a random session ID that is not tied to you or your device.

It never sends your breathing sessions, history, health data from Apple Health, or anything that identifies you. It is not used to track you across apps or websites, and it is not shared with or sold to anyone. Turning it off deletes anything not yet sent. Reports are kept for 30 days and then deleted. The service runs on Cloudflare, which sees your IP address in transit; Idle Fusion uses it only briefly to limit abuse and does not store it.

Analytics & Tracking

Breathe Easy contains no advertising, no ad SDKs, no tracking pixels, and no third-party analytics frameworks. Apart from the anonymous diagnostics above, which you can turn off, it collects nothing.

Network Usage

Breathe Easy works entirely offline. It makes network requests only to send anonymous diagnostics, unless you have turned them off, and through the App Store for updates.

Children's Privacy

Breathe Easy does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children under the age of 13. Anonymous diagnostics contain nothing that identifies a person.
