Privacy Policy
Last updated: 13 November 2026
StreakZ (“we”, “us”) is a study and focus app for exam students. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. Questions: StreakZapp@gmail.com.
Information we collect
- Account — when you sign in with Google or email, we receive your name and email address to create your account.
- Study data — the syllabus progress, chapters, spaced revisions, tasks, study sessions, streaks, goals and exam date you create in the app.
- App preferences — settings such as your course/level and the list of apps you choose to block during focus sessions (stored to run the feature; not used to track you).
- Notifications — a device token so we can send study reminders and streak alerts, if you allow notifications.
- Purchases — if you buy Premium, Google Play processes the payment and sends us a purchase receipt to unlock your subscription. We never receive your card details.
- Diagnostics & usage — basic crash and error logs, your device’s operating system, IP address, and which screens of the app you use and for how long, to keep the app stable and improve it.
We do not collect your precise location.
How we use your information
- To provide the app — track progress, schedule revisions, run focus sessions, and show your stats.
- To send the reminders and streak notifications you opt into.
- To manage your Premium subscription and support requests.
- To fix bugs and improve the app.
How your data is stored
Your data is stored securely on Supabase (our backend provider) and protected by per-user row-level security, so your records are accessible only to your own authenticated account.
Optional on-device features (Android)
These features are off by default. Each one asks for its Android permission only after you turn it on and agree to an in-app explanation, and you can turn it off at any time in Android Settings.
- Block Reels & Shorts (Accessibility Service) — uses Android’s Accessibility Service only inside Instagram, YouTube and Snapchat, to recognise Reels / Shorts / Spotlight screens and tabs, cover those tabs, and go back when you open or swipe to more short videos. It also counts how many short videos you watch each day (“Brain drain”) and reads the colour of the app’s tab bar once so the cover blends in. Screen content is never stored, collected, uploaded or shared; only the daily count is kept, on your device. It does nothing in any other app.
- Silence distractions during focus (Notification access) — while a focus session is running, reads the app name, title and text of incoming notifications only to decide whether one is distracting (social and shopping apps, promotions, promotional SMS, reel or video links sent to you). Distracting ones are hidden; calls, alarms, OTPs, bank alerts and normal chats are never hidden. A short list of what was hidden is kept on your device, shown to you after the session and then deleted. Nothing is uploaded or shared.
Connecting StreakZ to Claude (AI connector)
If you choose to connect StreakZ to Claude (by Anthropic), you sign in and explicitly approve access. From then on, Claude can read your own StreakZ study data — and, if you ask, create or update your tasks — on your behalf, to help you plan and revise. This happens only at your direction and only with your own data. You can disconnect at any time from Claude’s connector settings. Review Anthropic’s privacy policy for how Claude handles your conversations.
Sharing
We do not sell your personal data. We share data only with the service providers needed to run StreakZ — Google (sign-in, Play billing, notifications), Supabase (hosting/database), and, when you connect it, Anthropic’s Claude. Each processes data only to provide its service. We may also disclose information if required by law (for example, a court order), or when we believe in good faith it is necessary to protect our rights, your safety or the safety of others, or to investigate fraud.
Data retention & security
We keep your data for as long as you use StreakZ and for a reasonable time after, unless you delete your account sooner. We use physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect the information we process.
Your choices & rights
- Delete your account — you can delete your account and associated data from within the app; this removes your records from our database.
- Notifications — turn reminders on or off anytime in your device or app settings.
- Access/correction/deletion — email us to request a copy, correction or deletion of your data; we’ll respond within a reasonable time.
- Stop all collection — uninstall the app.
Children
StreakZ is intended for exam-preparing students. If you are a minor, please use the app with the involvement of a parent or guardian. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13; if we learn that we have, we delete it. Parents or guardians can contact us to have it removed.
Changes
We may update this policy as the app evolves; we’ll revise the “Last updated” date above. Continued use of StreakZ after a change means you accept the updated policy.
