Privacy policy

Data stored on your device

Your tasks, timer settings, selected music station and daily focus statistics are saved in your browser's local storage. They are never sent to us. You can delete them at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser settings.

Analytics

To understand how many people use PausePad and which pages are useful, we use:

• Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights: cookie-free, anonymous page view and performance measurements.
• Google Analytics 4: anonymous usage statistics such as page views, country, device type and timer events (for example "timer started"). Google may set cookies for this. The content of your tasks is never sent.

You can block analytics with any standard content blocker or by enabling "Do Not Track" style protections in your browser. PausePad works the same either way.

Music

The music player embeds YouTube streams using YouTube's privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com). Nothing is loaded from YouTube until you press Play. Once you do, YouTube's privacy policy applies to the player.

Notifications

If you allow notifications, your browser shows an alert when a session ends. Notifications are created locally and no data is sent anywhere.
