Privacy Policy
Triloop ("us", "we", or "our") operates the "Alarm Clock: Wake up Smart" mobile application (the "App").
This page informs users about our policies on the collection, use, and disclosure of information if anyone uses our Service.
By using Alarm Clock: Wake up Smart, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Information is used only to provide and improve the Service. We do not sell or share your personal information except as described here.
Terms used here have the same meanings as in our Terms and Conditions unless defined otherwise.
1. Information Collection and Use
Alarm Clock: Wake up Smart provides alarm, world clock, stopwatch, timer, and screensaver features.
Alarm & App Data
The app stores information locally on your device, including:
- Alarm settings (time, label, repeat days, vibration, snooze)
- Alarm and timer sounds you select
- Timer and stopwatch data
- World clock cities and display options
- App settings (dismiss method, volume-button behavior, week start, night mode, and similar preferences)
This data is used only to provide app functionality. We do not send your alarm, timer, world clock, or settings data to our own server.
Device Information
Third-party services (if enabled) may process limited device-related information such as:
- Device model
- Android version
- App version
- Language settings
- Crash or diagnostic data (only if such a service is added)
This helps improve stability, compatibility, and performance.
Advertising Data
The app includes advertising support (Google AdMob). In the current version, ads are turned off, so we do not request ads or show an ad-consent form.
If a later version enables ads, advertising partners may collect:
- Advertising identifiers
- Device information
- Approximate location
- App interaction data
That information may be used for personalized or non-personalized ads. You can manage ad personalization in your device settings.
Microphone / Sound Preview
If you preview a ringtone or timer sound, the app may use microphone-related permission only so Android can show a waveform of audio already playing in the app. The app:
- Does not record phone calls or conversations
- Does not save microphone recordings
- Does not upload audio to a server
Personal Data
We generally do not require personally identifiable information (name, email, account) to use the app.
2. Data Storage and Security
Most app data is stored locally on your device (on-device database and preferences). Android backup may copy local app data if device backup is enabled.
We use reasonable measures to protect information. No method of electronic storage is completely secure.
If ads or other third-party services are enabled, those providers may process limited data under their own privacy policies.

Personal Data

Limited technical data may be collected by third-party services for advertising or diagnostics if those services are enabled.
Anonymous usage statistics and diagnostic information may be collected only if we add such services in a future update.
4. Third-Party Services
The app may use trusted third-party services including:
Google AdMob
Used to display advertisements when ads are enabled. AdMob may collect device identifiers and advertising-related information according to Google’s Privacy Policy.
Google User Messaging Platform (UMP)
Used to display consent forms where required (for example GDPR) when ads are enabled.
Room Database

We do not currently use Firebase Analytics, Firebase Crashlytics, or a custom backend API in this app.
5. Data Retention and Deletion
Most application data remains stored locally on your device.
You can delete individual alarms or settings in the app. If you uninstall the app or clear app data, locally stored data is removed from the device. Device backups may keep a copy until you delete the backup.
Data processed by third-party services (if ads or similar services are enabled) is subject to their own retention policies.
6. Cookies
The app itself does not directly use cookies.
Third-party services such as Google AdMob may use cookies or similar technologies if ads are enabled.
7. Children's Privacy
Alarm Clock: Wake up Smart is not directed toward children under the age of 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
If you believe a child has provided personal information through the app, contact us so we can take appropriate action.

If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA), you may have the right to:
- Access your data
- Correct inaccurate data
- Request deletion
- Restrict processing
- Object to certain processing
- Data portability
For clock data stored only on your device, you can edit or delete it in the app, or uninstall the app. Contact us to exercise other rights.
9. CCPA Privacy Rights

We may disclose information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, and only when legally necessary.
