NoStim has no backend. There is nothing to sign in to and nothing for us to store, because nothing you do in the app is ever sent to us. Specifically:
Your rules, your history, your streak, and your settings are stored locally on your device. If you delete NoStim, they're gone with it.
If you choose to start or join a Circle, a small amount of information — your streak and whether you've used an escape — is shared directly with the people in your Circle, person to person, through your own iCloud account (Apple's CloudKit). NoStim has no server in that path and no console that can read it; the developer sees exactly as much of your Circle's data as any other stranger, which is to say none.
Stats screens that show your own usage (like "blocked apps today") are rendered by Apple's DeviceActivityReport extension inside a sealed system sandbox. NoStim's own code never sees the numbers — only Apple's extension does, and only to draw the chart on your screen.
Tips, NoStim Pro, and every other in-app purchase are handled entirely by Apple's App Store. NoStim never sees or stores your payment details.
NoStim does not knowingly collect information from anyone, of any age — the policy above applies equally to every user, because nothing is ever collected in the first place.
If this policy ever changes, the new version will be posted at this same address with an updated date above.
