Breathe.io ("we", "our", "us") operates the website breathe-io.com and the Breathe.io Android application. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our services.
We collect minimal anonymous usage data through Firebase Analytics, including pages visited, session duration, and general device information (browser type, screen size, operating system). No personally identifiable information is collected.
If you choose to sign in, we receive your Google profile information (name, email address, and profile photo) through Firebase Authentication. We use this to:
When signed in, we store your meditation session timestamps, total meditation time, and session preferences in Firebase Realtime Database. Session logs older than 95 days are automatically deleted.
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.
Firebase Analytics uses cookies to collect anonymous usage data. These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website.
Your data is stored securely using Google Firebase services, which employ industry-standard encryption and security measures. Data is stored in Firebase's cloud infrastructure and is protected by Google's security protocols.
We use the following third-party services:
We operate an internal publishing tool, Breathe Studio, which uses YouTube API Services to upload videos to our own YouTube channel, @Breathe-io.
By using Breathe Studio you are agreeing to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service. Any data obtained through YouTube API Services is handled in accordance with the Google Privacy Policy.
What Breathe Studio accesses. Breathe Studio signs in with a single Google Account — the account that owns our own YouTube channel — and accesses only that channel. It uploads videos we produced ourselves, sets their titles, descriptions, tags and thumbnails, changes their privacy status after we have reviewed them, and deletes videos we decide not to publish.
What Breathe Studio does not access. It does not access, collect, store or process information belonging to any other YouTube user or channel. It performs no search or discovery queries, uses no YouTube Analytics data, shares no YouTube data with third parties, and uses no YouTube data for advertising. It is not distributed to, or usable by, anyone outside our organisation.
Stored data and deletion. The only YouTube data we store is an OAuth token held locally on the operator's own computer, together with the video IDs of videos we published ourselves. Deleting that local token file removes the stored credential immediately.
Revoking access. Access granted to Breathe Studio can be revoked at any time from the Google security settings page.
Questions or complaints about our use of YouTube API Services can be sent to support@breathe-io.com.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
