Privacy Policy
Effective Date: November 1, 2026
1. Introduction
Clock Widget+ ("the App") is developed and published by Progressio Studio ("we", "us", or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains what information the App uses and how it is handled when you use Clock Widget+ on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android devices, including its widgets and, on Mac, the ClockSaver screen saver.
2. The Short Version
We do not collect, store, sell, or share your personal information. Clock Widget+ has no accounts, no advertising, no analytics, and no tracking. The clock faces, widgets, favorites, photos, and settings you create stay on your device.
3. Permissions and Information Used on Your Device
Every permission below is optional. The App asks only when you use the feature that needs it, and you can turn each one off at any time in your device's settings.
- Location: Used to show the weather, sunrise, and sunset where you are. On iPhone, iPad, and Mac, the App asks Apple's WeatherKit service for the forecast at your location. On Android, it asks the weather service you choose: Open-Meteo by default, or a provider you add with your own API key (OpenWeatherMap, Tomorrow.io, WeatherAPI, or AccuWeather). Your location goes only to that weather service to get the forecast; we never receive or store it. You can choose a city instead of sharing your location.
- Photos and Files: When you pick a photo for a clock face or widget background, the App reads only the photos you select, through your device's photo picker. On Mac you can also choose your own images or videos, and grant access to a folder (such as your Mac's wallpaper folder) through the standard Open panel. Your files are read on your device and are never uploaded or changed. On Android, cutting a portrait out of its background uses Google's ML Kit, which processes the photo on your device.
- Calendar (iPhone and iPad): If you add a calendar complication, the App reads upcoming events from the calendars you choose, to show them on your widgets. Your events never leave your device.
- Alarms and Notifications: Alarms, timers, and alerts are scheduled on your device: with Apple's AlarmKit on iPhone and iPad, and with the system's alarm and notification services on Android.
- Screen Saver Folder (Mac, optional): If you turn on Screen Saver Sync, the App saves your screen saver settings, favorite faces, and wallpaper stills in a hidden folder inside your Screen Savers folder, so the ClockSaver screen saver can show them. This folder stays on your Mac.
- Fonts and Clock Faces You Import or Export: Fonts, photos, and clock face files you import are kept on your device. Clock faces leave your device only when you choose to export or share them.
4. Content the App Downloads
Some features download content when you use them. These requests carry only the standard information any internet request includes, such as your IP address and device type, and no personal information from the App:
- Fonts from Google Fonts, when you choose to download a font.
- Weather icon packs from Google's servers, when you choose one of the built-in icon packs.
- Images from a web address you enter, when you add your own weather icons.
- The App's latest version number from Apple, to let you know about updates.
These providers handle requests under their own privacy policies.
5. Payments and In-App Purchases
Clock Widget+ Premium is sold through the Apple App Store on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and through Google Play Billing on Android. Payments are processed entirely by Apple or Google; we never receive your payment card details or other financial information. The App checks your purchase status with the store so that Premium works on your device. On Apple devices, one Premium purchase unlocks Premium on every iPhone, iPad, and Mac signed in to the same Apple Account.
6. Third-Party Services
The App relies only on platform services from Apple (App Store, WeatherKit) and Google (Google Play Billing, ML Kit, Google Fonts), and, on Android, the weather service you choose. We do not include advertising frameworks, analytics or tracking tools, or data-broker services.
7. Children's Privacy
Clock Widget+ complies with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and the Google Play Families Policy. The App is suitable for all ages and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13.
8. Your Choices and Deleting Your Data
Because we do not store your data on our servers, everything the App keeps is on your own device and under your control:
- Turn off location, photo, calendar, or notification access at any time in your device's settings.
- Deleting Clock Widget+ from iPhone, iPad, or Android removes its saved faces, widgets, and settings.
- On Mac, moving Clock Widget+ to the Trash removes the app. To remove its saved data as well, delete its folders in Library › Containers and Library › Group Containers. If you installed ClockSaver, remove it in System Settings › Screen Saver, and delete the hidden ".ClockSaverData" folder in your Screen Savers folder.
- Manage or cancel a subscription in your Apple Account subscriptions (on iPhone, iPad, or Mac) or in Google Play › Payments & subscriptions.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the App changes or the law requires it. Changes will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
