🐑 Sheepo Desktop – Privacy Policy
Last Updated: December 6, 2025
Sheepo Desktop collects anonymous, non-personal usage data to help us improve the application experience. We prioritize your privacy and do not collect personal identifiers such as your name, email address, or phone number.
1.1 Data Types We Collect
We use Google Firebase Analytics to collect the following categories of data:
- Usage Data:
- Session Metrics: Duration of focus and break sessions, completion rates, and “skip” actions.
- Preferences: Your selected Interface Language (e.g., English, Chinese) and Portal Theme (e.g., Sheepo, Snow, Sand).
- Feature Interaction: Usage of specific features such as the “PetBar”, settings toggles (e.g., sound on/off), and menu bar actions.
- Identifiers:
- We use a random, pseudonymous App Instance ID generated by Firebase. This identifier allows us to count unique users and analyze retention but is not linked to your hardware serial numbers (UDID) or your real-world identity.
- Diagnostics:
- Crash reports and performance data to help us fix bugs and improve stability.
🎯 2. How We Use the Data
The collected data is used solely for statistical analysis and product improvement:
- To Improve Features: Analyzing whether users prefer shorter or longer focus sessions helps us optimize default settings.
- To Design Content: Understanding which themes (e.g., Snow vs. Sand) are most popular guides our future design efforts.
- To Ensure Stability: Crash reports help us quickly identify and fix technical issues.
We do not use this data for third-party advertising, profiling, or tracking you across other apps and websites.
🔒 3. Data Sharing & Processing
- Google Firebase: Analytics data is processed by Google Firebase, a third-party service provider, in accordance with the Google Privacy Policy.
- No Sale of Data: We do not sell, trade, or rent your data to any third parties.
- Apple App Analytics: If you have opted in to share analytics with developers in your macOS system settings, Apple may share aggregated, anonymized crash and usage data with us.
⏳ 4. Data Retention
- Analytics data is retained by Firebase for a limited period (typically up to 14 months) before being automatically deleted or anonymized.
- Local Data: Your personal settings (such as current sheep status and history) are stored locally on your device and are removed if you uninstall the app.
🙋 5. Your Rights and Choices
- Opt-Out: You can stop all data collection by uninstalling the application.
- Access & Deletion: Since we do not link data to your personal identity (name/email), we cannot retrieve or delete data specific to you upon request. However, resetting your local app data or uninstalling the app will break the link to the previous App Instance ID.
