Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 18, 2026

Overview

Insomnia ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use our mobile application, how we use it, and the choices you have over your data.

We designed Insomnia with privacy at its core. Most features work entirely on your device — your sleep data, journal entries, and personal preferences never leave your phone unless you explicitly choose to share them.

Data We Collect

On-Device

Sleep & Session Data (All on your device)

  • Sleep session start/end times and duration
  • Audio playback preferences and sound selections
  • Sleep quality ratings and optional notes
  • Wind-down routine progress and completion status
  • Breathing game session data
  • Bedtime and wake-time preferences

This data is stored locally on your device using an encrypted SQLite database. It is not transmitted to our servers.

On-Device

App Preferences & Profile

  • Name (optional, stored locally)
  • Selected sleep goal and chronotype
  • Notification and alarm settings
  • Theme and UI preferences
Third-Party

AI Features (On-Device Model)

When you use AI-powered features such as personalized sleep advice, the processing happens entirely on your device using a local Gemma model. We do not transmit your data to external AI services.

AI-generated recommendations and saved memories are stored locally on your device and are not shared with any third party.

Third-Party

Crash & Analytics Reporting

We use Firebase Crashlytics to collect crash reports and anonymous usage analytics. This data includes:

  • App crash traces and stack traces
  • Device model and OS version
  • Which screens and features are used
  • Anonymous session duration

This data cannot be used to identify you personally and is used solely to improve app stability.

Third-Party

Advertising

Insomnia may display ads served by Google AdMob. AdMob may collect and use data to deliver personalized advertising, including:

  • Device identifiers and advertising ID
  • App usage and session data for ad targeting
  • Location (city-level, if permitted)

You can opt out of personalized ads in your device settings under Settings > Privacy > Ads, or limit ad tracking at google.com/settings/ads.

Never

We Do NOT Collect

  • Your precise GPS location
  • Contacts, calendar, or messages
  • Microphone recordings (audio plays from local files only)
  • Biometric data beyond basic sleep tracking
  • Financial or payment information

How We Use Your Data

We use the data we collect to:

We do not sell your personal data to any third party.

Data Sharing

We share minimal data with the following third-party service providers, who are contractually obligated to protect your information:

We do not otherwise share, sell, or transfer your personal data to any other third parties unless required by law.

Storage & Security

Most of your data is stored locally on your device in an encrypted SQLite database. Your sleep sessions, journal entries, profile data, and preferences never leave your device unless you explicitly share them.

For data that is transmitted (crash reports, analytics, ads), we rely on industry-standard TLS encryption in transit. We regularly review our security practices and limit data collection to the minimum necessary for each feature.

If you uninstall the app, all locally stored data is deleted. To delete your data before uninstalling, go to Settings > Privacy > Clear All Data within the app.

Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@insomnia.app. We will respond within 30 days.

For advertising data managed by Google, you can use the Google Play data deletion requirements for compliant handling.

Children

Insomnia is not intended for use by children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected data from a child, please contact us at privacy@insomnia.app and we will promptly delete it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above and, for significant changes, notify you through the app.

Continued use of the app after any change constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
