Chronos – Privacy Policy

Who we are

Chronos is a day counter app operated by Norse Ventures LLC (“we”, “our”, “us”), based in Charleston, South Carolina, USA. This policy explains how information is handled when you use Chronos.

Your count stays on your device

Chronos does not require an account. Your start date, display settings, and reminder preferences are stored on your device and shared only with the Chronos widgets on that same device.

Milestone reminders are scheduled locally by iOS or Android. Chronos does not upload your dates to a Norse Ventures account or backend, and contains no advertising or tracking. Deleting Chronos removes its local data.

Anonymous usage statistics (iOS)

Chronos for iOS sends a few anonymous events to PostHog, our analytics provider, so we can see whether people come back and how many reach Chronos Pro. The events are: the app was opened, the start date was set, settings were opened, the Chronos Pro offer was shown, Unlock or Restore was tapped and how it ended, a Pro setting was changed, Share was tapped on a milestone card, and the app asked the App Store to show its rating dialog. Each event carries the app and iOS version, whether the app came from the App Store or TestFlight, and a random identifier created on your device.

The events never include your start date, your count, your name, email, Apple ID, advertising identifier, or any text you enter. PostHog discards IP addresses for Chronos and does not build a profile of you. The data is not used for advertising or shared with data brokers, and is kept for up to one year. Deleting Chronos removes the random identifier.

A milestone card you share carries a link to norseventures.co/get/chronos. Opening it sends the phone on to the App Store or Google Play; on the way we count the visit by app and by kind of phone (iPhone, Android or other) and keep nothing else from it.

Chronos Pro purchases

Chronos Pro is a one-time in-app purchase. Apple or Google processes the payment, and RevenueCat helps Chronos load the price, complete the purchase, and restore it later. To do this, RevenueCat receives your purchase history and an anonymous app identifier that is not linked to your name or email. We never receive your payment-card number.

Installs from our App Store ads (iOS)

We advertise Chronos in App Store search results. When Chronos for iOS first opens, it passes a short-lived token from Apple to RevenueCat. If you installed Chronos after tapping one of our ads, RevenueCat uses the token to ask Apple which campaign, ad group, and keyword that ad belonged to, and keeps the answer with your anonymous app identifier, so we can see which ads lead to a purchase.

This uses Apple’s own ad attribution service. Chronos does not ask for permission to track you, does not read your advertising identifier, and shows no ads. The information is not sold or shared with data brokers.

Email support

If you contact us, we receive your email address and whatever information you choose to include so we can respond.

Sharing and sale of information

We do not sell your personal information. Information is shared only with the service providers needed for purchases and anonymous usage statistics, when you direct us to share it, or when required by law.

Retention and your choices

Chronos’s app data remains on your device until you change it, start over, or uninstall the app. Purchase records are retained by Apple or Google and by RevenueCat under their own policies. Support emails are kept only as long as reasonably needed to answer your request and meet legal obligations.

You can turn off milestone reminders in Chronos or in your device’s notification settings. You may also contact us to request access to or deletion of personal information we hold about you.

Delete your Chronos data

Your start date and settings live only on your device. Uninstalling Chronos deletes them.

To delete the purchase data RevenueCat holds for Chronos (your purchase history and anonymous app identifier), email support@norseventures.co with the subject “Delete my Chronos data” and, if you can, the Google Play order number or App Store receipt email for your Chronos Pro purchase. We delete the RevenueCat record within 30 days and confirm by email. Apple and Google keep their own purchase records under their policies, and Chronos Pro can still be restored from them later.

Changes

We may update this policy as Chronos changes. The effective date above shows when this version took effect.
