SunnyWalker collects no personal data. There are no servers operated by us, no analytics, no tracking, no advertising, and no account or login. This App is fully compliant with Apple's "Made for Kids" guidelines and the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). We do not collect any personally identifiable information from users, including children under the age of 13.
What the app stores, and where
- Voice recordings made by a parent are stored on your device only, inside the app's local Documents folder (
Documents/Recordings/). They are never transmitted to any server and are not accessible to us. - Alarm settings (schedule, task type, alarm name, groups, chime and to-do reminders) are stored in the app's local storage on your device only.
- Photos you choose for a mascot (for example the Sunflower) are copied into the app on your device only.
- Wake history, to-do log and streak data (if present) are stored locally on your device only.
- Diagnostics: since 1.4.20260920 the app saves Apple MetricKit performance and crash reports into its own folder on your device. The app contains no code that uploads them, and we never receive them.
What we do NOT collect
- No name, email address, or any personal identifier
- No location data
- No voice or audio content transmitted off-device
- No usage analytics or crash reporting sent to us
- No advertising identifiers (IDFA)
- No third-party SDKs that collect data
Children's privacy (COPPA / GDPR-K)
SunnyWalker is designed for young children to use under parental supervision. Because we collect no data at all, the app complies with COPPA (US) and GDPR-K (EU) by design. No information about child users is ever collected, stored outside the device, or shared.
Microphone permission
The app requests microphone access solely to allow a parent to record a voice message. The recording is saved locally and is never uploaded or transmitted.
Third-party services
SunnyWalker uses no third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services.
Ad-Free Experience
To ensure a safe environment for children, this App is 100% ad-free. We do not display any third-party advertisements or use any ad-tracking mechanisms.
Outbound Links & Parental Gate
Any external links (such as a link to our support email or App Store page), the rating prompt and the Pro purchase are secured behind a Parental Gate (a math question, or a 4-digit passcode the parent sets) to ensure children cannot access the internet, buy anything or leave the App without adult supervision.
Purchases
Core wake-up features are free. SunnyWalker Pro (since 1.3.20260615) is an optional one-time purchase that raises the alarm and ringtone limits; it sits on the parent page behind the parental gate. Payment is handled entirely by Apple through the App Store — we never see your payment details, and the purchase does not change anything described in this policy.
Data deletion
All app data is stored locally on your device. To delete it, uninstall the app from your device. You can also delete individual recordings from within the app settings.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, we will update the last-updated date above. Significant changes will be noted in the App Store release notes.
