Privacy Policy
Effective date: November 6, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Gevlen handles information when you use the Gevlen iOS app. Gevlen provides routines, routine check-ins, a calendar view, local reminders, focus timers with session history, optional routine photos, and optional focus voice notes.
Information stored on your device
You do not need to create an account to use Gevlen's native routine and focus features. Information you enter or create for these features is stored in the app on your device and may include:
- Routine names, categories, icons, scheduled times and days, and enabled or reminder settings.
- Routine check-ins showing whether a scheduled routine was completed or skipped on a date.
- Focus session titles, planned durations, actual focused time, dates, and completion status.
- Photos you select or take as visual cues for routines.
- Voice notes you record for focus sessions.
- App preferences and whether you have completed the initial setup.
Gevlen's native features store these records and media locally; they are not uploaded to a Gevlen server for synchronization or sharing. You can remove them from the app by choosing Settings → Clear local data. Data may also be affected by your device's backup, restore, and app-removal settings.
Photos, camera, and microphone
If you choose Choose from Photos, Gevlen uses the photo you select as a visual cue for a routine and saves a copy in the app's local storage. If you choose Take a Photo, the camera is used to capture that routine photo. Gevlen does not upload these photos through its native routine features.
If you choose to record a focus voice note, Gevlen uses the microphone while recording and saves the audio in the app's local storage. A recording can last up to 60 seconds and can be played or removed in the app. Gevlen does not upload these recordings through its native focus features.
These features are optional. You can manage camera and microphone access in iOS Settings. Removing a routine photo or voice note in Gevlen deletes its local app copy; removing all local data also removes the app's stored media.
Network requests
Gevlen may use an internet connection to retrieve app configuration or load hosted web content. Requests to Gevlen's configured services may include technical information such as an app-scoped device identifier, device model, app and operating system versions, language, region, and time zone. These requests do not include your locally stored routines, routine photos, focus records, or voice notes through the native features described above. Hosted web pages may process connection information under their own privacy practices.
Notifications
If you choose to enable reminders, Gevlen asks iOS for notification permission and schedules local notifications on your device for routines where reminders are enabled. The operating system delivers these notifications. You can turn reminders off in Gevlen or change notification access in iOS Settings.
Information you send to support
If you email support@Gevlen.com, we receive the email address and the message information you choose to provide. We use it to respond to your request. Your email provider may also process the message under its own privacy terms.
Sharing
Gevlen does not sell the locally stored routine, focus, or media information described above. Technical request information may be sent to configured services as described in Network requests. If you contact support, your message is handled as described above.
Retention and your choices
Your routine and focus information, photos, and voice notes remain in local app storage until you remove them, clear local data, or remove the app. Use Settings → Clear local data to remove routines, photos, check-ins, reminder settings, active focus data, voice notes, and focus history from the app. Device backups are controlled by your platform settings and may retain data separately.
Children's privacy
Parents and guardians should supervise a child's use of Gevlen. Routine and focus entries and media are handled as described in this policy, and technical information sent with configuration requests is described in Network requests. A parent or guardian with a privacy concern may contact us at the address below.
Security
Gevlen stores app information locally and relies on the protections provided by iOS and your device. No storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Keep your device and operating system protected.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy if the app or its data practices change. The effective date above indicates when this version was last updated.
