Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 27, 2025

Summary

FocusIn is a demo product that enables focus sessions with peer-gated unlocks. For this MVP, we intentionally collect the minimum information required for the session to function and for basic debugging. We do not run third-party analytics and we do not store a persistent database.

What we collect

  • Session identifiers: room IDs and short session codes you create to invite others.
  • Display names: the name you type to appear in the room (e.g., “Z man”).
  • Device info (simulator): device name and platform you choose when enrolling a virtual device.
  • Ephemeral audit events: entries such as “device_enroll”, “unlock_request”, “unlock_decision” to help demonstrate and debug the system.
  • Technical signals: short-lived tokens, timestamps, socket IDs, and basic connection metadata.

We do not collect payment information, precise geolocation, or sensitive categories.

How we use data

  • Operate focus sessions and real-time presence.
  • Enable peer-gated unlock requests and decisions.
  • Troubleshoot, measure latency, and improve reliability.

Retention

Presence lives in memory and is cleared when connections end or the server restarts. Audit entries are kept in an ephemeral log file for a short period (7–30 days for demo) and may be rotated or deleted at any time. No long-term profiles are built.

Legal bases

Where applicable, we rely on consent (you start a session or enroll a device) and legitimate interests (operating a reliable, secure demo service).

Security

  • Short-TTL WebSocket tokens; rotation supported.
  • Ed25519 signatures for policy bundles (preferred), HS256 legacy fallback.
  • Minimal PII design and CORS restrictions for API access.

Your choices & rights

You can leave a session at any time or disconnect enrolled devices. For data access or deletion related to audit entries, contact us and include your session code and approximate timestamps so we can locate the relevant lines.

International transfers

This demo may be hosted in the United States or the EU. By using the service, you understand that data may be processed in these regions.

Children

FocusIn is not intended for children under 13 and should not be used by them.

Changes

We may update this policy as the product evolves (e.g., adding a database or payments). We will revise the “Last updated” date and, where required, provide additional notice.
