Blocklo Terms & Privacy
Introduction
Welcome to Blocklo! By downloading, installing, or using the Blocklo mobile application (“App”), you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms of Service and Privacy Policy (collectively referred to as “Terms & Privacy”). Please read these terms carefully before using our App.
Terms of Service
1. License to Use
Blocklo grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for personal, non-commercial purposes, subject to these Terms & Privacy. Any use of the App outside of this license is strictly prohibited.
2. User Responsibilities
By using Blocklo, you agree to:
Use the App in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
Not attempt to reverse engineer, disassemble, or derive the source code of the App.
Not misuse the App in any way that could damage, disable, or impair the App or interfere with any other party’s use of the App.
Keep your account information (if applicable) secure and notify us immediately of any unauthorized use.
3. Monetization
Blocklo is currently offered as a free application. However, in the future, we may introduce monetization features, including but not limited to:
In-App Purchases: You may have the option to purchase additional features or content within the App.
Subscriptions: We may offer subscription plans that provide access to premium features.
Use of Apple Family Controls API (permission requested)
Blocklo uses Apple’s Family Controls API to manage and restrict access to specific apps on your device. This feature allows you to block selected apps until you complete custom tasks within Blocklo. The use of this API requires your explicit permission, which can be managed through your device settings. No personal data is collected through the Family Controls API, and this functionality operates locally on your device.
Modifications to the Service
Blocklo reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the App or any features within the App, with or without notice. You agree that Blocklo shall not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the App. We will notify users of significant changes through in-app notifications or via email.
5. Governing Law
These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Germany, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising under or in connection with these terms shall be resolved in the courts of Berlin, Germany.
Privacy Policy
1. Data Collection
Blocklo collects anonymous usage data through third-party services such as Firebase and Google Analytics. This data includes:
App usage statistics (e.g., frequency of use, features accessed).
Device information (e.g., device type, operating system version).
2. Data Usage
The data we collect is used solely to improve the performance, features, and user experience of the Blocklo App. We do not use this data to identify individual users. Data collected is retained for as long as necessary to provide the service or improve the App, after which it may be anonymized or deleted.
3. Data Sharing
We do not sell or rent your data to third parties. We may share anonymous data with third-party service providers like Firebase and Google Analytics to assist in analyzing how our App is used. These third parties are bound by their own privacy policies and are prohibited from using the data for any other purpose. We ensure that all data sharing complies with relevant data protection laws, including GDPR and CCPA where applicable.
4. Data Protection
We take reasonable precautions, including encryption and secure servers, to protect the data we collect from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. However, no online service can be completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of your data.
5. User Rights
Opt-Out: If you wish to opt-out of data collection, the only way to do so is to uninstall the App. By continuing to use the App, you consent to the ongoing collection of anonymous usage data.
Data Access and Deletion: Since we do not collect personal data, we do not offer individual data access or deletion requests. If you have any concerns, please contact us for assistance.
6. Use of Apple Family Controls API
As mentioned in our Terms of Service, Blocklo uses Apple’s Family Controls API to facilitate the blocking and unblocking of apps on your device. This feature operates locally on your device and does not involve the collection of personal data. Your permissions for this feature can be managed in your device settings.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update these Terms & Privacy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and notify users through in-app notifications or via email. We encourage you to review these terms periodically to stay informed of any changes, particularly if we introduce monetization features.
