Privacy Policy

Last Updated: March 2, 2026

1. Our "Privacy-First" Manifesto

At Mirror, we believe technology should serve humans, not spy on them. Our app is designed to help you regain control of your screen time—not to monitor your life for you.

Before diving into the legal details, here are our 3 core pillars:

  • 🔒 Local-only processing — Your screen time data never leaves your iPhone. It is processed locally by iOS, and Mirror has no access to it on its servers.
  • 🚫 Zero data selling — We never sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for commercial or advertising purposes. Ever.
  • ✂️ Minimalism — We only collect what is strictly necessary for the app to function. Nothing more.

This Privacy Policy describes the data we collect, why we collect it, how we protect it, and what your rights are. It applies to the Mirror application, published by Jordan Gloaguen (the "Editor"), located at 61 rue Chevalier de Kermelec, Quimper, 29000, France.

2. Information We Collect

In summary: We distinguish between data you voluntarily provide and data collected automatically. We never collect your app usage details, messages, photos, location, or contacts.

A. Voluntarily Provided Data

Data Type Examples Purpose
Local Profile Display name, avatar To personalize your experience. Stored locally on your device only.
Preferences Daily screen time goals, "distracting" app tokens To configure the service.
Communications Content of emails sent to support/feedback To answer your requests.

B. Automatically Collected Data

Data Type Examples Purpose
Device Data iPhone model, iOS version, language, time zone To ensure compatibility and fix bugs.
App Usage Data Open frequency, features used, screens visited To improve the user experience.
Error Logs Crash reports, error traces To diagnose and fix technical issues.
Transaction Data Subscription status (active/expired), plan type To manage your Premium access.
⚠️ What we do NOT collect: Your list of apps used, time spent on each specific app, notification content, messages, photos, location, or contacts.

3. The Specific Case of Screen Time

In summary: Your screen time data stays on your iPhone. We cannot see it.

Mirror uses Apple's Screen Time frameworks (DeviceActivity, FamilyControls, ManagedSettings) to function. Here is what that means for your privacy:

  • Mirror is an interface, not a spy: Data processing is performed entirely by iOS on your device. Mirror sends instructions to the system (e.g., "block this selection of apps from 9 AM to 5 PM"), but never receives back the details of your activity.
  • Opaque Tokens: The app selections you make via Apple's picker are stored as "opaque tokens" (encrypted IDs). Mirror cannot read the names of the apps you've selected—only the iOS system can.
  • No Central Database: We do not have a database containing your app usage or history. This info is managed exclusively by Apple on your device.

4. Use of Data

In summary: We use your data exclusively to provide, personalize, improve, and secure the service.

We use the collected data exclusively for the following purposes:

  1. Providing the Service: Managing your local profile, block sessions, and preferences.
  2. Personalizing your Experience: Tailoring the "Journey" content and recommendations to your profile.
  3. Improving the App: Analyzing aggregated and anonymized usage trends to develop new features.
  4. Ensuring Security: Detecting and preventing fraudulent activity.

5. Third-Party Services

In summary: We use a limited number of trusted providers (Firebase, RevenueCat, Apple) to run Mirror.

We use a limited number of technical providers to run Mirror:

  • Analytics & Crashes: Firebase Analytics / Crashlytics (Google LLC) — Anonymized usage data (features used, screens visited, paywall views, sessions created) and error logs. No personal screen time data is collected.
    Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
  • Subscription Management: RevenueCat Inc. — Processes transactional data including anonymous device identifier, purchase history, subscription status, and anonymous subscriber ID. RevenueCat acts as a data sub-processor.
    RevenueCat Inc., 633 Tarava St Suite 101, San Francisco, CA 94116, USA.
  • Payments: Apple (App Store) — Financial transactions (handled entirely by Apple). Mirror does not have access to your payment details.

Note: For transfers to the U.S., we rely on the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and/or Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission.

6. Your Rights (GDPR & CCPA)

In summary: You can access, correct, delete, or export your data at any time.

You have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Access & Rectification: Obtain a copy or correct your data.
  • Erasure ("Right to be forgotten"): Request the deletion of your personal data.
  • Portability: Receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
  • Objection & Restriction: Object to processing based on legitimate interests.

To exercise these rights, contact us at: contact@playmirror.so. We will respond within 30 days.

7. How to Delete Your Data

In summary: Reset your data directly from the app or contact us by email.

We want this to be simple:

  1. In the App: Go to Settings (⚙️) > Delete My Data. This will erase your local profile and preferences from your device.
  2. By Email: Send a request to contact@playmirror.so with the subject "Data Deletion" to request the erasure of any analytics data associated with your device.

What happens next: Your local data is immediately erased. Any anonymized analytics data associated with your device will be purged from our Firebase servers within 30 days.

⚠️ Note: Deleting your data does NOT automatically cancel your App Store subscription. You must do this in your iPhone Settings > [Your Name] > Subscriptions.

8. Data Retention

In summary: We keep your data only as long as necessary, and no longer.
  • Account Data: Retained while the account is active, then for 90 days after deletion.
  • Analytics: Maximum 26 months.
  • Billing Data: 10 years (French legal/tax requirement).
