FocusCall Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 21, 2026 · Last updated: June 21, 2026

FocusCall ("we", "us") provides a reminder service that places real phone calls to help people — including people with ADHD — act on their tasks. This policy explains what we collect, why, and your rights. We do not sell your personal data and we do not track you across other apps or websites.

1. Information we collect

2. How we use your information

We do not use your data for advertising and we do not perform cross-app tracking.

3. Service providers we share data with

These providers act as our processors under contract and are required to safeguard your data. We do not sell your data to anyone. FocusCall is available to US users at launch.

4. Your call consent

Before we place any call, you affirmatively consent to receiving automated/pre-recorded reminder calls at the number you provide, and you verify ownership of that number with a one-time code. You can withdraw consent at any time by any reasonable means — press 0 during any reminder call, use Settings → Calling Consent → Revoke in the app, or delete your account — after which we stop calling you.

5. Google Calendar sync (optional)

You create your reminders yourself by default. If you choose to connect Google Calendar (Settings → Connect Google Calendar), we use Google's read-only calendar.readonly permission to read your upcoming events for the next 7 days. For each timed event we take its title, start time, and your own RSVP status (so we can skip events you declined), and turn it into an automatic reminder so we call you shortly before it. We store the event title and the computed call time, plus Google access tokens (encrypted at rest) so we can keep syncing while the app is closed. We do not read past events, other attendees' details, event descriptions, or attachments, and we never modify your calendar. Disconnecting (Settings → Google Calendar → Disconnect) revokes our access at Google, deletes the stored tokens, and cancels future calendar-sourced reminders. We use calendar data only to create your reminders — never for advertising or analytics.

6. Location reminders (optional)

Reminders are time-based by default. If you choose to create a location reminder, you pick a place on a map and we call you when you arrive near it. This is the only feature that uses location, and only after you grant precise and background ("Always") location permission. Your phone's operating system watches a radius around your chosen place entirely on your device — FocusCall does not receive, transmit, or store your continuous location or any location history, and there is no GPS tracking. We store only the place you chose (its coordinates, radius, and an optional label) on that reminder. You can revoke the location permission in your phone's settings at any time, which disables location reminders; the stored place is deleted when you delete the reminder or your account.

7. Children

FocusCall is not directed to children under 13. You must attest that you are 13 or older to use the service. If we learn we have collected data from a child under 13, we will delete it.

8. Data retention and deletion

We keep your data while your account is active. You can delete your account at any time from Settings → Delete Account; deletion is total — within 30 days this permanently removes your account, reminders, phone number, all call logs, and your consent record. We do not keep a consent record after your account is gone. You can also request a full export of your data from within the app.

9. Your rights

Depending on your location (e.g. EEA/UK under GDPR, California under CCPA), you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data, and to withdraw consent. The app provides self-service export and deletion; for any other request contact us below.

10. Security

Data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS). Access to production systems is restricted. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your data.

11. Changes

We may update this policy; we will revise the "Last updated" date and, for material changes, notify you in the app.
