Privacy Policy

This policy explains how the sleep sound recording app for iPhone that this website describes (App Store ID 6815384429, “the app”) handles information, and how snorezy.org handles visits (section 13). “We” means the developer of the app (section 15).

The short version

• There is no account. No sign-up, no login, no name, email address or phone number.
• Your nights stay on your iPhone. Sound is analysed on the iPhone. Recordings, reports, your answers and any Apple Health readings are stored there, and are kept out of iCloud and device backups. We don't run a server that could receive them.
• No analytics, no advertising, no tracking. The app contains no analytics or advertising software.
• Buying a subscription involves Apple and Superwall. They receive what a purchase needs, such as device details and purchase information, never your recordings, sleep data, answers or Apple Health values (section 3).
• Apart from that, your data leaves your iPhone only when you share or export it yourself (section 7).
• This website is separate from the app. It uses Google Analytics to count visits. In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland its cookies are set only if you accept; anywhere, you can refuse them under “Cookie settings” at the bottom of every page (section 13).

1. What is stored on your iPhone

Everything below stays in the app's private storage on your iPhone. Recordings, night records and your personal answers are in folders the app marks as excluded from iCloud and device backups, and that iOS keeps encrypted until you first unlock the phone after a restart. The app re-applies that exclusion every time it opens.

Audio

• Clips of the moments the app detects: snoring, talking, coughing, breathing-related sounds and other noises. Each clip starts a few seconds before the sound, and a breathing-sound sequence keeps up to 45 seconds so you can hear the whole moment.
• The whole night, only if you choose Full Recording in Settings → Recording Preferences (about 15 MB an hour).
• Temporary audio. If the live sound analysis stops during a night, the app keeps the audio for that stretch so it can be analysed later. It is deleted once it has been analysed, and never kept longer than 14 days.

Night records

Each night's results: start and end times, what was detected and when, how loud the room was through the night, any stretch that wasn't recorded, the categories and any corrections you make, whether a sound was yours or a partner's, bookmarks, your morning rating, bedtime factors (such as alcohol or a blocked nose), what a partner noticed, your answers to the symptom check-in, and any note you write. If you connect Apple Health, a night also keeps a copy of that night's Health readings (section 4), so its report still opens as it did.

Your answers and plans

What you chose during the app's first screens (why you came, what someone noticed, how you usually wake up), your sleep schedule and reminder choices, and the history the morning sleep summary keeps. These are stored with the night records, out of backups.

Settings

Ordinary preferences stay in the app's standard settings file, which iOS includes in device backups: the app language, recording mode and categories, how long audio is kept, sleep sound and timer choices, which tips and permission prompts you have already seen, whether first run is finished, and the last known state of your subscription, so the app opens correctly offline. None of them is a recording, a sleep result, an answer or an Apple Health value.

Because sleep data is kept out of backups, a new or restored iPhone starts without it. Use Export Recordings (section 7) for anything you want to keep.

2. What leaves your iPhone

• Purchase information, to Apple and to Superwall, when the subscription screen is shown, when you buy or restore, and when the app checks whether your subscription is active (section 3).
• What you choose to share or export: a night's summary card or text, a recording, or an export of your recordings, sent wherever you pick in the iOS share sheet (section 7).
• Links you open. Sources, the Privacy Policy, the Terms and the App Store open in your browser or the App Store, which then receive your visit as they would any other.

That is all. The app sends no analytics, crash reports or usage data of its own. If you have turned on Share with App Developers in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements, Apple may share crash reports and usage statistics with us, aggregated and under Apple's own privacy policy; you can turn that off there.

3. Purchases and subscriptions

Recording, the morning report, the sounds, trends and sleep sounds need a subscription. Payments are processed by Apple through the App Store, under your Apple Account and Apple's privacy policy. We never see your payment details.

The app uses Superwall (Superwall, Inc.) to show the subscription plans and to check whether your subscription is active. To do that, Superwall's software in the app sends Superwall:

• a random identifier it creates on your iPhone, and the identifier for vendor, a random number iOS gives each developer's apps on your device;
• device and app details: the iPhone model, iOS and app versions, region and language settings, currency, time zone, when the app was installed, network type, light or dark appearance, Low Power Mode, whether the app is a test build, and which subscription you currently have;
• which subscription screen the app asked for, and where in the app it was asked for;
• the result of a purchase or a restore, from the App Store;
• your IP address, as part of any internet connection.

The app does not give Superwall a user ID, profile attributes, recordings, sleep data, your answers or Apple Health values, and it has switched off Superwall's own event uploading. Superwall processes this information on our behalf to run the subscription, under its privacy policy at superwall.com/privacy.

4. Apple Health

Connecting Apple Health is optional, and the app records sounds without it. If you connect it, Apple asks which readings to share, and you can change your choice at any time in the Health app. The app only reads; it never writes anything to Apple Health. It can read:

• sleep: time in bed, time asleep, sleep stages and time awake;
• heart rate, respiratory rate and blood oxygen;
• Apple Watch sleeping wrist temperature;
• on iOS 18 and later, Apple Watch breathing disturbances and sleep apnea notifications.

The app shows these next to the night's sounds, labelled as Apple Health's, and uses your Apple Health sleep for the sleep score and the morning sleep summary (section 6), which reads once a morning in the background. A copy of a night's readings is kept with that night on your iPhone, out of backups. Apple Health values are not sent to us, to Superwall or to anyone else.

5. Permissions

Microphone

Asked for when you first tap Record, after a screen that explains recording. It is used only while a night recording you started is running, and keeps working while your phone is locked so the night can be recorded; that is the only reason the app runs audio in the background. The microphone hears everyone in the room. Let anyone who sleeps there know, and follow the rules on recording other people where you live.

Apple Health (optional)

Only if you choose to connect it. See section 4.

Notifications and Live Activities (optional)

Asked for only if you tap Turn On Reminders on the reminder screen near the end of the app's first screens, or later when you set up a reminder or start recording. See section 6.

The app asks for nothing else: no location, camera, contacts, photos or tracking permission. You can change any permission in iOS Settings.

6. Notifications and Live Activities

Every notification is scheduled on your iPhone; there is no push server. Each has its own switch in Settings → Notifications.

• Bedtime reminder: on only if you turn reminders on (in first run or in Settings), at the time you chose. Missed night: off until you set it up.
• Stay on track: tips for your nights, and now and then an offer, at most one a day. The reminder screen shows it switched on and says so before iOS asks; it only sends anything if you turn reminders on and iOS allows notifications, and you can switch it off there or in Settings at any time. With a subscription, a few reminders about recording if you stop using the app. Without one, up to twelve evening messages about the app over 90 days; one of them invites you to subscribe, and tapping any of them opens the subscription offer. They stop when you subscribe, pause for a day after you open the app, and end after day 90.
• Sleep summary, with a subscription and Apple Health connected: at most one notification a morning, with last night's figures on the Lock Screen unless you choose “your summary is ready” instead. On by default once Apple Health is connected, and it has its own switch.
• Recording alerts, if the microphone stops reaching the app during a night, for example because of a call.
• Live Activities on the Lock Screen while a night is recording, and, on iOS 26 and later, at bedtime if you set a sleep schedule.

The app may also ask iOS to show Apple's rating prompt once, after a morning report.

7. Sharing and exporting

Nothing leaves the app unless you choose to send it. From a report you can share a summary card (the date, a headline, the sleep score if Apple Health has your sleep, time asleep or time recorded, awakenings and snoring) or a text summary with similar figures, and from a recording you can share that clip or the full night.

Export Recordings (Settings → Storage & Privacy) saves a copy of every clip and full-night recording as audio files, with or without a subscription. The copies are made in temporary storage and removed when the share sheet closes.

A shared or exported file can contain sensitive information and other people's voices. Once it is somewhere else, such as in Files, a message or a cloud service, it is handled there, outside the app's control.

8. How long it is kept, and deleting it

Audio. In Settings → Storage & Privacy, Keep audio offers 7 days, 30 days (the default), 90 days or Until deleted. Older audio is deleted automatically the next time you open the app. Bookmarked clips are kept. Temporary audio is deleted once analysed, and after 14 days at most.

Night records are kept until you delete them, including after a subscription ends. Your recordings stay yours: without a subscription you can still export or delete them.

On the same screen:

• Delete Old Recordings removes audio older than your Keep audio choice.
• Delete All Recordings removes every clip and full-night recording. Reports stay.
• Delete All Sleep Data removes every night, statistic and recording, with your check-ins, notes and first-run answers. Apple Health itself isn't affected. It keeps the ordinary settings in section 1.

You can also delete a single night (Delete Night and Recordings) or a single clip. Deleting the app deletes everything it stored on your iPhone.

9. Earlier versions of the app

Versions up to 1.0 (100) worked differently, as the earlier policy describes:

• They sent usage data to PostHog (PostHog, Inc., United States), linked to a random install identifier, and gave Superwall that identifier and a few app attributes. The current version sends neither, and on its first launch deletes the install identifier and the files PostHog kept on the phone. Data PostHog and Superwall already received is not deleted by updating the app; you can ask us to delete it (section 12).
• They kept night records and settings in ordinary app storage, which is included in device and iCloud backups. The current version moves that data out of backups on its first launch, but it cannot change backups you made before. You can delete old backups in iOS Settings → your name → iCloud → Manage Storage → Backups, or on the computer that made them.

10. What we do not do

• No account, no advertising, and no tracking across apps or websites; the app never asks for the advertising identifier. (This website's own visitor statistics are described in section 13.)
• We don't sell or rent information about you.
• No cloud upload or sync of recordings, sleep data, answers or Apple Health values.
• No location.

11. Children

The app and this website are not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them. If you record in a child's room, the recording stays on your iPhone like any other.

12. Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the EU and UK GDPR or Californian law), you can ask to access, correct or delete personal information about you, object to or restrict its use, and receive a copy.

• On your iPhone: everything in section 1 is under your control in the app (section 8), and deleting the app removes it.
• Held by Superwall or, from earlier versions, PostHog: email us. There is no account, so to find the right records we may need details such as roughly when you installed or subscribed. We pass requests to them and tell you what happened.
• Payments: Apple holds those under your Apple Account; ask Apple.

Why we process what we receive: to provide the subscription you buy (contract), and, for security, fraud prevention and running this website, our legitimate interest in keeping them working. Website analytics cookies rely on your consent in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, and elsewhere on our legitimate interest in knowing which pages are useful; you can refuse them either way (section 13). Superwall, PostHog, Google and this website's host process data in the United States; we rely on the data processing terms these providers offer for those transfers (for Google, its Data Privacy Framework certification and standard contractual clauses). You can complain to your local data protection authority, and we would be grateful if you contacted us first.

13. This website

snorezy.org is hosted by Railway (Railway Corporation), which receives each request, including your IP address, the page and your browser's details, to deliver the page, and may keep them in short-lived server logs for operations and security. The website loads no fonts or media from other sites, and never asks for your microphone: the audio examples are files served by this site.

Analytics. The website uses Google Analytics 4, provided by Google Ireland Limited and Google LLC, to count visits, see which pages are useful and which App Store links people tap. It records the pages you view, the link you tap and where it was on the page, the site or campaign that brought you here, your device and browser type, an approximate location that Google derives from your IP address (Google Analytics doesn't log or store the IP address itself), and a random identifier kept in cookies. Google signals and advertising features are switched off: nothing is used for advertising or to recognise you on other sites. Nothing from the app is involved, and nothing you type into the sleep log on this website is stored or sent.

Cookies and your choice. The analytics cookies are _ga and _ga_H19XE7PMNB, kept for up to two years. If you are in the EEA, the UK or Switzerland they are set only if you accept; until you do, and if you refuse, Google receives only cookieless signals with no identifier (the page, the time, your browser's details and the fact that consent wasn't given), which it uses for overall counts. Elsewhere they are set by default and you can refuse them. Wherever you are, if your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal we treat it as a refusal: the cookies aren't set and you aren't asked. Change your choice at any time under “Cookie settings” at the bottom of every page; the choice itself is kept in your browser's local storage, not in a cookie, and blocking cookies in your browser works too.

Google keeps the analytics data for the retention period set for this website (2 or 14 months), then deletes it. Links to the App Store and to cited sources take you to those sites, under their own policies.

14. Changes

When the app changes how it handles information, this policy is updated in the same release, and the date at the top changes. Earlier versions stay available: 2 October 2026, 11 October 2026 and 22 October 2026.

15. Who we are, and contact

The app is published on the App Store by its developer, who is responsible for the information described here. Questions and requests: sandi.peklaric@gmail.com.
