Privacy Policy
Last Updated: February 13, 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
A. Voluntarily Provided Data
| Data Type | Examples | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Account Identifiers | Email (or anonymized ID via "Sign in with Apple"), first name | To create and manage your account. |
| User Profile | Display name, avatar | To personalize your experience. |
| 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. |
3. The Specific Case of Screen Time
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
We use the collected data exclusively for the following purposes:
- Providing the Service: Creating your account, managing block sessions, and syncing preferences.
- Personalizing your Experience: Tailoring the "Journey" content and recommendations to your profile.
- Improving the App: Analyzing aggregated and anonymized usage trends to develop new features.
- Ensuring Security: Detecting and preventing fraudulent activity.
5. Third-Party Services
We use a limited number of technical providers to run Mirror:
- Hosting & Backend: Firebase (Google LLC) — Account IDs, user preferences.
- Authentication: Firebase Auth / Sign in with Apple — Email or anonymized Apple ID.
- Subscription Management: RevenueCat Inc. — Subscription status, anonymous ID.
- Payments: Apple (App Store) — Financial transactions (handled by Apple).
- Analytics & Crashes: Firebase Analytics / Crashlytics — Anonymous usage data and error logs.
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)
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
We want this to be simple:

What happens next: Your account is immediately deactivated, and all personal data is deleted from our Firebase servers within 30 days.
