1. Introduction
Ocularis (“we”, “us”, or “our”) creates calm, mindful tools to help individuals use their devices deliberately. Unlike conventional blockers and engagement-driven apps, Ocularis is architected from the ground up on an offline-first, zero-knowledge privacy model.
This Privacy Policy explains what happens when you use the Ocularis mobile application for Android. The short answer: your data belongs to you, stays on your device, and is never transmitted to us or any third party.
2. Android Permissions & How They Are Used
To provide gentle mindful pauses, app delays, and wellbeing rest reminders, Ocularis utilizes specific standard Android system APIs. Google Play policies require clear and prominent disclosure regarding how these permissions function:
AccessibilityService API
Ocularis uses the Android AccessibilityService API exclusively to detect when a target application that you have placed under an intentional rule (such as social media feeds) is launched in the foreground. This allows Ocularis to present your chosen 3-second breathing pause or intention prompt before the app opens.
We NEVER use the AccessibilityService API to log keystrokes, read screen contents, capture passwords, monitor chats, or inspect personal communications.
Usage Access Permission (PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS)
Allows Ocularis to calculate your daily time-spent totals for specific categories and trigger eye-rest reminders after continuous screen sessions. This data is computed strictly in real-time in local device memory and never leaves your phone.
3. Data We Do NOT Collect
- No personal identification (names, email addresses, phone numbers, avatars).
- No location data or GPS coordinates.
- No keystrokes, messages, clipboard content, or photos.
- No financial or payment details (all transactions are securely handled directly by Google Play Billing).
- No persistent device identifiers (IMEI, MAC address, Advertising ID).
4. Third-Party Services & Analytics
Ocularis contains no third-party advertising SDKs, no behavioral trackers (such as Google Analytics or Meta Pixel), and no data aggregators. Crash logs (if generated by the Android OS) are anonymized by Google Play Console in accordance with standard Android developer telemetry.
5. Data Retention & Deletion
Because all your rules, preferences, and session logs reside solely on your local smartphone storage, you retain total control over your data at all times. If you uninstall Ocularis or clear its storage via your Android Settings app, all associated data is permanently erased immediately.
6. Children's Privacy
Ocularis does not knowingly collect or solicit any personal information from children under the age of 13. Given our zero-telemetry architecture, no information from any user is ever stored or transmitted.
