1. What BoreMe does

BoreMe is a digital wellbeing and focus app for Android. It can act as a launcher, show overlays, help you organize distracting apps, track sessions, support premium subscriptions, and show ads in the free version.

2. Information we collect

• Device and app identifiers. BoreMe creates an app-specific device ID and may store authentication tokens needed to connect your device to BoreMe services.
• App setup and preferences. This includes language, theme, selected favorites, hidden apps, onboarding choices, quote preferences, subscription state, and similar app settings.
• Installed app metadata. BoreMe may read installed app names, package IDs, and launcher-visible app information so it can show your apps, favorites, hidden apps, and related controls inside BoreMe.
• Usage statistics. If you grant Android usage access, BoreMe may collect usage summary data such as total time used, top apps, and app usage minutes over a selected period.
• Session and activity data. When you start focus sessions or use stats features, BoreMe may store session timing, selected apps, and productivity summary information.
• Account data if you choose sign-in. If you sign in with Google or link a Firebase-authenticated account, BoreMe may receive your Firebase user ID and email address.
• Purchase and subscription data. If you buy Premium through Google Play, BoreMe may process subscription product IDs, purchase tokens, verification status, and entitlement dates.
• Feedback you submit. If you contact us through the app, we collect your message and any screenshot you choose to attach.
• Advertising and monetization metrics. BoreMe may record ad-related events such as ad opens, reward starts, reward completions, and experiment variants.
• Technical request data. Our backend may receive information such as IP address, timestamps, and basic request metadata for security, fraud prevention, and service operations.
• Website analytics. BoreMe uses Google Analytics on boreme.in to understand page views, traffic sources, device/browser information, and basic website interactions so we can improve the website and app experience.

3. Information we do not intentionally collect

BoreMe is not designed to read your private messages, contacts, call logs, precise location, microphone audio, or the contents of your personal photos for normal app use.

4. How we use information

• To provide BoreMe features, including launcher, session, stats, and app organization features.
• To remember your settings and keep your experience consistent across app sessions.
• To authenticate your device and, if you choose, link your account to your device.
• To verify Google Play purchases and manage Premium access.
• To measure ad rewards, product experiments, and service performance.
• To respond to support and feedback requests.
• To protect the service against abuse, spam, fraud, and unauthorized access.
• To improve the product over time.
• To understand website traffic and improve BoreMe pages, content, and launch communications.

5. Permissions and device access

BoreMe may request Android permissions or system access such as:

• Usage access to generate usage summaries and BoreMe productivity features.
• Overlay permission to display BoreMe interface elements above other apps.
• Notification permission to show reminders and foreground-service notifications.
• Battery optimization exemption to keep persistent BoreMe features running reliably.
• Boot completed to restore BoreMe behavior after device restart.
• Home/launcher role when you choose to use BoreMe as your launcher.

You can revoke permissions in Android settings, but some features may stop working if you do.

6. Sharing of information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information only as needed with:

• Google services for sign-in, Firebase authentication, Google Analytics, Google Play billing, and AdMob advertising.
• Infrastructure providers that host our database, storage, or backend systems.
• Service providers that help us operate the app.
• Authorities or other parties when required by law or to protect rights and safety.

7. Data storage and retention

Some data is stored locally on your device. Other data may be sent to BoreMe backend systems for sync, subscriptions, support, and app operations.

We keep data for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service and comply with legal obligations.

8. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect data, but no system is completely secure. You should also protect access to your device and Google account.

9. Children's privacy

BoreMe is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to BoreMe, contact us so we can review and delete it.

10. Your choices

• You can stop using BoreMe at any time and uninstall the app.
• You can revoke permissions in Android settings.
• You can choose not to sign in with Google.
• You can manage subscriptions through Google Play.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will update the date at the top of this page when we do.
