Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 11, 2026
The short version: AlarmMe works on your iPhone. Your location is used on your device to ring your alarms and is never sent to us. We don't show ads, we don't sell data, and we don't track you across other apps or websites.
1. Who we are
AlarmMe ("AlarmMe", "we", "us") is an iOS app published by Adel Aref, based in Egypt. If you have questions about this policy, contact us at support@alarmme.net.
2. Information AlarmMe uses
Location
Location alarms and Focus Zones need to know when you arrive at or leave a place. To do this, AlarmMe uses Apple's Core Location on your device:
- Your location is processed only on your iPhone. It is not uploaded to our servers and we cannot see it.
- "Always" location access lets alarms ring when the app is closed. You can change this anytime in Settings › Privacy & Security › Location Services › AlarmMe.
- AlarmMe does not keep a history of where you have been.
Alarms, places and reminders you create
Alarm names, saved places, radius settings, Focus Zones, reminders and preferences are stored on your device. If you turn on iCloud sync, they are also stored in your own private iCloud database (Apple CloudKit). That data is tied to your Apple ID and is not accessible to us.
Map and place search
When you search for a place or view the map, your search text and the map area are sent to Apple Maps to show results. Apple handles this under the Apple Privacy Policy.
Notifications, Siri and Shortcuts
Alarms and reminders are delivered as local notifications created on your device. If you use Siri or the Shortcuts app with AlarmMe, those requests are handled by Apple.
Purchases (AlarmMe Pro)
Subscriptions and one-time purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store. We never receive your payment details. We use RevenueCat to check whether you have Pro. RevenueCat receives an anonymous app user ID, your purchase history for AlarmMe, and basic device information (such as iOS version and country).
Crash reports and analytics
If you choose to share analytics with app developers in iOS settings, Apple may provide us with anonymous, aggregated crash reports and usage statistics. We do not use third-party analytics or advertising SDKs.
When you contact us
If you email us (for example through Settings › Send Feedback), we receive your email address and whatever you include in the message, such as your iOS and app version. We only use this to reply to you and fix problems.
3. What we don't do
- We don't sell or rent your personal information.
- We don't show ads or share data with advertisers.
- We don't track you across other companies' apps or websites.
- We don't require an account to use AlarmMe.
4. How long we keep data
Data on your device stays there until you delete it or delete the app. iCloud data stays in your iCloud account until you remove it (in AlarmMe, or in Settings › [your name] › iCloud). Support emails are kept only as long as needed to help you, and no longer than 24 months.
5. Your choices and rights
- Location: switch access between Always, While Using, or Never in iOS Settings at any time.
- Notifications: manage them in iOS Settings › Notifications › AlarmMe.
- iCloud sync: turn it off in AlarmMe Settings; you can also delete synced data there.
- Delete everything: deleting the app removes all data stored on your device.
Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in the EU/UK or the CCPA in California), you may have the right to access, correct, delete or export personal information we hold about you. Because AlarmMe keeps almost everything on your device or in your own iCloud, we usually hold nothing beyond support emails. To make a request, email support@alarmme.net.
6. Children
AlarmMe is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age in your country), and we don't knowingly collect personal information from them.
7. Security
Your data is protected by iOS security and, if you use iCloud sync, by Apple's iCloud encryption. No method of storage is 100% secure, but we design AlarmMe to keep as little data as possible.
8. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top of this page. For important changes, we will also let you know in the app.
