Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 2025
Overview
FocusTools.app is committed to protecting your privacy. All productivity tools (timers, trackers, checklists) run entirely in your browser, and your personal data never leaves your device.
Your Tool Data
All tool processing happens locally in your browser:
- Pomodoro sessions, timer settings, and statistics - Stored only in your browser's localStorage
- Habits, goals, and checklist items - Never sent to any server
- Personal data - We never collect, store, or transmit your personal information
Your data remains on your device and is under your complete control. Clearing your browser data will remove all stored information.
Analytics
We use Vercel Analytics, a privacy-friendly analytics service that:
- Does not use cookies
- Collects only basic page view information (which pages are visited, how often)
- Does not track individual users across sites
- Helps us understand which tools are most popular
Why we use analytics: This limited data helps us optimize ad placement and generate revenue to cover hosting costs, keeping all tools free for everyone. We do not sell or share this data with third parties.
Advertising
We display Google AdSense advertisements to generate revenue that keeps the site free:
- Google may use cookies to show relevant ads based on your browsing history
- Ad revenue helps cover hosting, maintenance, and development costs
- Analytics data helps us optimize ad placement without compromising your privacy
You can learn more about Google's privacy practices at Google's Privacy Policy.
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Vercel Analytics - Privacy-friendly page view tracking
- Google AdSense - Advertisement serving
- Tailwind CSS CDN - Styling framework (no tracking)
Your Rights
Since we don't collect or store your personal data on our servers, there's nothing for us to delete or export. All your tool data is stored locally on your device and can be cleared by:
- Clearing your browser's localStorage
- Using your browser's "Clear browsing data" feature
