Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 2026

TaskLock ("we", "our", or "us") respects your privacy.

This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the TaskLock mobile application ("the App") and our website, tasklockapp.com.

TaskLock is designed to work without requiring you to create an account, sign in, or provide any personal identifying information.

1. Personal Data We Do Not Collect

We do not collect, store, or process any of the following:

• Your name, email address, or phone number
• Your Apple ID or account credentials
• Your contacts, photos, or microphone data
• Your tasks, habits, events, streaks, or task history
• Your selected blocked apps, categories, or websites
• Any personal content from your device

Because the App does not require registration or sign-in, we do not link the data described in Sections 2 and 6 to your name, email address, or Apple ID.

2. Anonymous Usage Analytics

To improve the App's quality, performance, and user experience, we collect limited, anonymous usage analytics through a third-party analytics service. This data is not linked to your identity and cannot be used to identify you personally.

The types of anonymous data we may collect include:

• General app usage patterns, such as session frequency and duration
• Interaction with app features, including onboarding flow completion
• Subscription and purchase-related events (e.g., whether a purchase screen was viewed or a transaction was completed), without any payment or financial details
• App performance metrics and error diagnostics
• Whether the App was installed from one of our Apple Ads ads, and if so, which one (see Section 6)

This data is tied only to a random ID created by the App, never to your name, email address, or Apple ID, and is used solely to help us understand how the App is used so we can make improvements. We do not sell or share this data, and we do not use it to track you or to show you ads. If the App was installed from one of our Apple Ads ads, the analytics also record which ad it was, so we can measure our own App Store ads, as described in Section 6.

3. Local Data Storage

Your tasks, habits, events, block settings, and related app preferences are stored locally on your device and are not transmitted to our servers.

4. Apple Screen Time and Permissions

TaskLock uses Apple's Screen Time, Family Controls, and Managed Settings APIs to:

• Let you select apps, categories, or websites to restrict
• Apply temporary restrictions while a task, habit, or event is active
• Remove restrictions when the task or event is completed or the restriction period ends
• Display the current blocking state inside the app

These permissions are used only to provide the app's core functionality. TaskLock:

• Does not track how you use other apps
• Does not access the content of other apps
• Does not monitor personal activity outside the functionality required for app blocking
• Does not collect blocked app selections on our own servers

All restrictions are configured and controlled by the user through Apple's system frameworks.

5. Subscriptions and Payments

TaskLock may offer optional subscriptions and other in-app purchases. Payments are processed securely by the Apple App Store. TaskLock does not have access to your full payment details. Subscription billing, renewal, cancellation, and refund handling are managed through Apple, subject to Apple's policies. For more information, please review Apple's applicable terms and privacy information.

6. Third-Party Services

TaskLock uses the following third-party services and system frameworks:

• Apple Screen Time / Family Controls / Managed Settings APIs – to manage app and website restrictions
• Apple App Store – to process subscriptions and in-app purchases
• Apple iCloud – if enabled by the user, for backup or sync through Apple's services
• Analytics Service – to collect anonymous usage data as described in Section 2. This service processes data in accordance with applicable data protection regulations.
• RevenueCat – to manage subscription status and in-app purchases. RevenueCat stores your purchases with a random ID created by the App, together with basic technical information needed to validate them (such as device model, system and app version, language, App Store country, and a device identifier that is unique to our apps and is not the advertising identifier). We do not give RevenueCat your name, email address, or Apple ID.

Apple Ads attribution. Once per installation, when you open the App, it requests an attribution token from Apple's AdServices framework and sends it to RevenueCat, which asks Apple whether the download came from an Apple Ads ad on the App Store. The App also asks Apple the same question directly, with a separate token; if Apple cannot answer yet, it asks again the next few times you open the App, for at most a week. If the download came from one of our ads, Apple returns details about that ad (such as the campaign, ad group, ad, keyword, and country or region); if not, no ad details are returned. RevenueCat stores these details with its random ID. The App adds the campaign, ad group, keyword, and ad ID numbers, the country or region, whether the ad was tapped or only seen, the type of download, and where the ad appeared on the App Store to the anonymous analytics described in Section 2; if no ad is found, or Apple has not answered within that week, it records only that and how many tries it took. The token, the ad's tap or view date, and our ad account ID are never added to the analytics. We use these details only to measure which of our own ads lead to downloads, use of the App, and purchases. They do not include your device's advertising identifier (IDFA). The App does not track you across other companies' apps or websites, so it never asks for tracking permission. We do not share this information with other ad networks or data brokers.

Our website. If you choose a language on tasklockapp.com (from the language menu or an “English version” link), your browser saves that choice in a cookie named nf_lang for up to one year, so the site opens in that language next time. The cookie holds only the language code and is used for nothing else. You can change it from the menu or delete it in your browser settings. If you do not choose one, no cookie is set. When you open an English page, the site sends you to the version in your browser's language, if there is one. It never uses your location or IP address for this. Our host, Netlify, receives the usual technical details of each request (such as your IP address and browser) to deliver the pages, and your browser loads the site's fonts from Google Fonts.

7. Children's Privacy

TaskLock does not knowingly collect personal data from children. The anonymous usage analytics described in Section 2 cannot be used to identify any individual user, including children. Parents and guardians are responsible for reviewing device permissions, Screen Time settings, and Apple family settings where applicable.

8. User Control

You can:

• Create, edit, or delete your tasks, habits, and events at any time
• Change or disable app restrictions through the app and Apple system permissions
• Manage or cancel subscriptions through your Apple ID settings
• Remove local app data by deleting the app from your device
• Control iCloud backup or sync through your Apple device settings

9. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated revision date.
