FeedZero is developed and maintained as an independent Android application. If you have any questions about this policy, you can reach us at hello@feedzero.in.
We collect only what is necessary to create your account and run the app.
| Data | Why we collect it | Where it is stored |
|---|---|---|
| Full name | Displayed in your home screen greeting | Firebase Firestore (Google) |
| Email address | Login and password reset only | Firebase Authentication (Google) |
| Password | Account access | Hashed by Firebase — never stored in plain text |
| Session history | Stats and streak tracking | Firebase Firestore (Google) |
| Focus streak | Habit tracking | Firebase Firestore (Google) |
We do not collect your phone number, location, date of birth, profile photo, or any other personal data.
FeedZero requires three special Android permissions to function. Here is exactly what each one does:
| Permission | What it does | What it does NOT do |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility Service | Detects when a blocked app is opened and redirects you back to FeedZero | Does not read screen content, passwords, or any personal data |
| Usage Access | Reads daily app usage time to calculate your focus stats and streaks | Does not transmit app usage data to any server |
| Notification Listener | Silences notifications from blocked apps during an active session | Does not read notification content — only reads the app package name |
None of these permissions are used to collect, transmit, or share data with any third party.
Your account data is stored securely on Google's Firebase infrastructure. Firebase Authentication and Firestore are GDPR-compliant services operated by Google LLC.
Session history and streak data are stored in Firestore and are linked to your account UID. This data persists across reinstalls so you never lose your progress.
A local cache of your app allowlist is stored on your device using AsyncStorage. This cache is scoped to your account and is used to support offline session starts.
Your data is retained for as long as your account exists. If you delete your account, all associated data including your name, email, session history, and streak data will be permanently deleted from our systems within 30 days.
To request account deletion, contact us at hello@feedzero.in with the subject line "Account Deletion Request".
FeedZero is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal data, please contact us at hello@feedzero.in and we will delete it immediately.
