Privacy Policy

Effective date: November 15, 2026 · Türkçe özet

This Privacy Policy explains how Paidtime, an iPhone app developed by NovaCoreLabs, handles information. In short: Paidtime has no accounts and no servers of its own, your subscriptions are stored on your iPhone, and Screen Time usage data never leaves your device.

1. Information you enter

Paidtime stores the subscriptions you add locally on your iPhone, including:

• service name, price, currency, billing cycle (monthly or yearly) and renewal day
• whether it is a free trial or a shared plan, and the number of people sharing it
• notes you choose to write
• your monthly answers to “How much did you use it?” for services used outside your iPhone
• app settings such as main currency, hourly price limit, appearance, language and reminder preference

This information is not uploaded to NovaCoreLabs or anyone else.

2. Screen Time (Family Controls and Device Activity)

Paidtime can measure how long you use the apps you pay for, using Apple's Screen Time frameworks. This is optional and only works after you allow it in Apple's permission dialog. Paidtime requests individual authorization only; it does not supervise or manage anyone else's device.

• App selection. When you link a subscription to an iPhone app, you pick it in Apple's own app picker. Apple gives Paidtime an opaque token for that app. Paidtime cannot read your list of installed apps, and the token cannot be turned into an app name outside Apple's views.
• Usage time. The total time spent in each linked app over the last 30 days is calculated by Apple and shown inside Paidtime's Screen Time report extension, which runs in a sandbox provided by Apple. Paidtime uses it only to display the cost per hour on your screen.
• Usage data stays on your iPhone. Usage time is not stored by Paidtime, not sent to NovaCoreLabs or any third party, not shared with the advertising SDK, and never used for advertising, ad measurement or profiling. Apple's sandbox does not allow the report extension to send data out.
• No restrictions. Although Apple's permission screen mentions restrictions, Paidtime never blocks, limits or changes any app or setting.
• To pass prices to the report, Paidtime writes a small file on your iPhone, in storage shared only between Paidtime and its own extensions. It contains the linked subscriptions' tokens, names, monthly costs and your display settings. It is never uploaded.

You can turn off Screen Time access at any time in iPhone Settings → Screen Time → Apps With Screen Time Access. Paidtime's other features keep working.

3. Exchange rates

If you use more than one currency, Paidtime downloads public exchange rates from ExchangeRate-API (open.er-api.com). The request contains no subscription or usage information; like any web request, it reveals your IP address to that service.

4. Reminders and widget

Renewal and free-trial reminders are local notifications scheduled on your iPhone; no notification server is used. The Home Screen widget reads upcoming renewals from the same on-device storage.

5. Advertising

Paidtime shows a banner ad served by the Google Mobile Ads SDK (Google AdMob). Google states that this SDK may collect your IP address, app interactions, diagnostic information and device identifiers for advertising, analytics and fraud prevention. The advertising identifier (IDFA) is shared only if you allow tracking in Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt.

Where required by your region (for example the EEA and UK), Paidtime uses Google's User Messaging Platform to ask for ad consent; if available, you can change your choice in Settings → Ad privacy choices.

Paidtime does not give the advertising SDK your subscriptions, prices, notes or any Screen Time data. Google's handling of data is described in Google's Privacy Policy.

6. Analytics and accounts

Paidtime has no user accounts and NovaCoreLabs runs no analytics or crash-reporting service in the app. Apple may provide anonymous crash reports and App Store statistics to developers if you have chosen to share them with app developers in your iPhone settings.

7. Data retention and deletion

Your data stays on your iPhone until you edit or delete it in Paidtime or delete the app. Deleting a subscription removes it and its reminders. Deleting the app removes all Paidtime data from your device. iPhone and iCloud device backups are handled by Apple and are outside Paidtime's control. NovaCoreLabs keeps no copy of your data.

8. Children

Paidtime is a personal finance and device-usage tool for adults and is not directed at children.

9. Security

Paidtime keeps its data in app storage protected by iOS file protection. No method of storage is completely secure, but Paidtime does not transmit your subscription or usage data anywhere.

10. Changes

NovaCoreLabs may update this policy when Paidtime's features or legal requirements change. The current version is always available on this page, linked from the app's Settings.
