Privacy Policy
Last Updated: September 2026 • Version 1.1
✓ Summary in Plain English:
Free Therapy Timer does not collect, transmit, store, or sell any of your personal information, workout histories, or biometric data. Everything you configure—including interval durations, set counts, audio voice settings, and stopwatch lap times—remains strictly inside your personal browser window.
1. Information We Do Not Collect
Free Therapy Timer adheres to a strict data minimization architecture:
- No Personal Identifiable Information (PII): We do not require account registration, email addresses, names, or phone numbers.
- No Audio Recording: We do not record your microphone, voice, or ambient room audio. Audio cues and countdowns are synthesized locally via the browser’s built-in Web Speech API (`window.speechSynthesis`) and Web Audio API (`AudioContext`).
- No Workout Telemetry: Your exercise durations, hold times, repetitions, and stopwatch splits are stored exclusively in temporary client memory and are never uploaded to any remote server.
2. Use of Browser LocalStorage
To maintain your interface preferences between visits, Free Therapy Timer utilizes standard browser `localStorage`. We only store non-identifiable UI settings:
| Key | Purpose | Data Contained |
|---|---|---|
| freetherapytimer_theme | Remembers your dark or light mode preference | "dark" | "light" |
| freetherapytimer_lang | Remembers your selected language choice | "en" | "zh" | "hi" | ... |
| freetherapytimer_audio_consented | Tracks consent for audio synthesis permissions | "true" |
You can clear these preferences at any time by clearing your browser's site data or cookies.
3. Analytics and Advertising Partners
We use Google Analytics to monitor aggregated website traffic, performance, and general geographic distribution. To support the free availability and ongoing hosting of our tools, we may display third-party advertisements (such as Google Ads). These partners may use cookies to serve non-personalized or relevant ads according to standard web privacy practices. You can manage or disable ad personalization at any time through your Google Ad Settings or browser cookie preferences.
4. Data Security and Encryption
Our entire web application is served exclusively over HTTPS with modern TLS encryption, ensuring that assets, scripts, and audio synthesis configurations are delivered securely without risk of tampering or eavesdropping.
5. Children’s Online Privacy (COPPA & GDPR Compliance)
Because Free Therapy Timer collects zero personally identifiable information, it is safe for users of all ages, including minors engaging in pediatric physical therapy or youth athletic training under the supervision of parents, coaches, or medical providers.
