Matcha Timer is built to respect your privacy. Your timer settings, chosen flavors, and preferences are stored only in your own browser and never leave your device. We do not sell your data, run ads, or show third-party tracking cookies.
Matcha Timer is an independent project run from Poland, and its operator decides how the data described here is handled. For any question or request — including access, correction or deletion — write to privacy@matchatimer.com and a real person will answer.
To understand how many people use the app and which features matter, we collect privacy-friendly, anonymous usage analytics. This covers a random device identifier (not linked to your name or email), your device type and operating system, the page you arrived from, how you reached us (e.g. a shared link or search), and basic in-app events such as opening the app or installing it. We do not collect your IP address or location, we do not record which pages you view, and we do not send your browser's user-agent to our analytics.
Signing in is optional — the timer works fully without an account. If you do sign in with Google, we receive and store your email address and the account identifier Google gives us, and we store the focus sessions and tasks you record from then on, so they survive across your devices. We never see your Google password, and we ask Google for nothing beyond your email address and basic profile. Your account data is kept for as long as the account exists.
Analytics events are sent to our own server and forwarded to PostHog, our analytics processor, on EU-based infrastructure. We never create a personal profile from these events — they stay anonymous and aggregated, and are kept for at most 12 months. If you choose to send a bug report, we attach technical details — your device, operating system, browser/user-agent, the page you came from, and the random identifier — to a separate first-party endpoint so we can reproduce the problem. Your network address is used only to stop the bug-report form being flooded, is held in memory for under a minute, and is never stored or emailed to us.
Account data and sign-in tokens are held by managed database and caching providers, both hosted in Frankfurt, Germany. Analytics stay on PostHog's EU infrastructure. Requests to the app pass through Cloudflare, and bug reports are delivered by Resend; these two are US-based and may process data outside the EU, which is covered by the standard contractual clauses in our agreements with them. Every one of these providers acts only on our instructions, and we can name any of them on request.
For anonymous usage analytics we rely on our legitimate interest in maintaining and improving a free service, kept proportionate by collecting only minimal, anonymous data. If you create an account, we process your email, account identifier, sessions and tasks in order to provide the account you asked for — that is performance of a contract, not legitimate interest, and it stops when you delete the account.
You have the right to access, rectify, erase or export your data, to object to processing, and to withdraw consent where we rely on it. Email us and we will act within 30 days; deleting your account removes your email, identifier, sessions and tasks from our systems. Because the analytics data is anonymous we usually cannot tie it back to an individual, but you can stop that collection yourself at any time (see below). If you believe we have handled your data wrongly, you can complain to the Polish supervisory authority: Prezes Urzędu Ochrony Danych Osobowych, ul. Stawki 2, 00-193 Warszawa.
You can opt out of analytics on this device at any time — click herealready opted out. Clearing site data also removes the random identifier, and disabling analytics never affects how the timer works.
Accounts are intended for people aged 16 or over. If you believe a younger child has created one, email us and we will delete it.
