Privacy Policy

DawnVow is a local-first, task-gated alarm app provided by Kaan Çelik, Türkiye. No DawnVow account is required.

Data kept on your device

Alarm times, recurrence rules, mission choices, app preferences, selected household objects and alarm history are stored locally on your device. Your exact wake-up time is not sent to DawnVow, Adapty or PostHog.

Photo missions

When you grant camera permission, DawnVow captures a photo only for the mission you start. Object recognition runs on the device. A photo that fails verification is deleted immediately; a photo that passes is kept only for the Morning Win card and removed within an hour at the latest. Photos are never uploaded to a DawnVow server, Adapty or PostHog. DawnVow does not offer gallery selection for mission proof.

Subscriptions and Adapty

Apple App Store or Google Play processes purchases and payment details. DawnVow uses Adapty to show subscription offers, validate access and restore purchases. Adapty receives an anonymous app profile, transaction and entitlement information, technical app/device information, and limited onboarding attribution such as selected goal, primary difficulty, mission type and experiment variant. DawnVow disables IP-address collection and iOS IDFA/Android advertising-ID collection in the Adapty SDK.

Product analytics and marketing measurement

DawnVow offers product analytics (PostHog) and marketing measurement (AppsFlyer) only from a 16+ age band, checked locally on your device. Product analytics runs on legitimate interest: it stays off until you answer the age question, then it is on by default for 16+ and you can turn it off any time in Settings → Privacy. Marketing measurement follows your device's region: outside the EEA, the UK and Switzerland it is on by default from the age answer for 16+, while inside those regions — and whenever the region cannot be determined — DawnVow asks for your consent first during onboarding. AppsFlyer receives only approved coarse activation events; it does not receive alarm details, mission evidence, age, onboarding answers, or account identifiers. Like most attribution SDKs, AppsFlyer processes your device's IP address, which it uses to determine the country or region of the install and to prevent fraudulent activity; DawnVow does not send AppsFlyer any address, precise location or coordinates of its own. Ages 16–17 use restricted measurement without advertising identifiers or subscription forwarding. Adult attribution on iOS also requires App Tracking Transparency authorization. Subscription lifecycle revenue is sent from Adapty to AppsFlyer only for eligible adult attribution profiles.

Onboarding text

New users download the onboarding text from a public file hosted by GitHub. The request carries no alarm, mission or account data. Like any web request, it reaches GitHub with your device's IP address, which DawnVow does not receive or use.

Permissions

DawnVow may request camera and platform alarm permissions. Android may also request notifications and exact alarms, and may recommend a battery-optimization exemption. These are used to deliver alarms and missions. If camera access is unavailable when a camera mission rings, the alarm still rings; you can grant access to complete the mission, or go back to the ring screen and hold the emergency exit for 60 seconds to end the morning.

Retention and deletion

Local data remains on your device until you delete it or uninstall DawnVow. Uninstalling removes alarms, mission history, preferences and stored consent from the device. Failed photos are deleted immediately; passed proof photos are removed within an hour at the latest. Apple, Google, Adapty, PostHog and AppsFlyer retain the limited data they process under their own policies and legal obligations. Emails you send to [email protected] are processed through Google Workspace and kept for up to 24 months.

Your choices and rights

You can turn product analytics and marketing measurement off at any time in Settings → Privacy (each has its own switch). You can revoke permissions in system settings, remove local alarms, uninstall the app, and manage or cancel subscriptions through your App Store or Google Play account. For privacy questions or applicable data-rights requests, contact us.

Where your data is processed

DawnVow has no server of its own, so the limited third-party processing described above is carried out by Adapty, PostHog, AppsFlyer, Cloudflare, GitHub and Google, which operate outside your country — including in the United States. Where personal data leaves the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, the transfer is covered by the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses together with the UK Addendum, and by the EU-US, UK and Swiss-US Data Privacy Frameworks where a provider is certified. Each provider publishes its own terms:

Who can use DawnVow

DawnVow is intended for people aged 13 and older. It is a local alarm app: alarms, missions and subscriptions work the same for everyone who can use it. On first run the app asks for an age range; that answer stays on your device and is never uploaded, and users who indicate they are under 13 cannot complete setup. The answer only decides whether product analytics and marketing measurement may run — both are limited to age 16 and older (with additional limits for ages 16–17) and stay off for younger users, so no usage data is sent on their behalf. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
