Privacy Policy

Bird on Perch · Last updated 28 July 2026

The whole policy in one line: we collect nothing. Bird on Perch has no account, no server, and no analytics. Everything it knows about you stays in your own browser.

Bird on Perch is a focus timer you use in your browser, and can install to your home screen. This policy describes exactly what data exists and where it lives. It is short because there genuinely isn't much to describe.

What we collect

Nothing. We ask for no email address, we have no sign-up, we set no analytics or advertising cookies, and we operate no server that receives your activity. We could not tell you how many sessions you've run, because we have no way to know.

What stays on your device

The app saves the following into your browser's local storage, on your own device. None of it is transmitted anywhere.

DataWhere it lives
Focus session history, daily totals, streaksYour browser's local storage
Which bird you have selectedYour browser's local storage
Your settings (notifications, session length)Your browser's local storage

Clearing your browser data, using a different browser or device, or uninstalling the app permanently deletes all of it. There is no backup and we cannot recover it, because we never had a copy.

Installing the app

If you add Bird on Perch to your home screen, your browser stores the app's files locally so it can run offline. That is handled entirely by your browser — it involves no account and sends us nothing.

Notifications

If you allow session-end alerts, they are scheduled locally by your browser or device. There is no push server, and no notification content is sent anywhere. You can revoke the permission at any time in your browser or system settings.

What we do not do

Hosting

The site is served by a static web host, which — like all web servers — may keep short-lived technical logs such as IP addresses for security and reliability. We do not use those logs to identify or profile you.

Children

Bird on Perch is not directed at children under 13. Since we collect no personal information from anyone, we collect none from children either.

Your rights

Because everything lives on your device, you have direct control: clearing your browser data for this site erases all of it immediately, with no request to us needed. Depending on where you live you may have additional statutory rights to access, correct, or delete personal data — though in practice we hold none.

Changes

If this policy changes materially we will update the date above. Because we have no way to contact you, please check back here rather than expecting an email.

Note for the upcoming Android release. This policy describes the free browser app only. The Android version will add Google Play Billing and RevenueCat for purchases, which means real third-party data sharing — a random app user id, purchase history, and device/platform details. That requires new sections here, plus a matching Play Data safety declaration. Update this document before you publish that build; don't ship it as-is.
