TimeTrackingTool keeps your time records on your device. It has no account, advertising, analytics or developer-operated server. Its only network feature is the optional download of a calendar feed that you configure.
1. Contact and scope
The operator of TimeTrackingTool can be contacted at apps@cblum.ch or through cblum.ch. This notice describes the inspected app version 1.1. The website, your calendar provider, your email service and any destination you choose for an export have their own processing arrangements.
2. Data stored on your device
Projects, tags, time entries (including notes, start and end times), preferences and calendar configurations are stored in the app’s local SwiftData database. The app does not add its own encryption to this database; device protection and any device or cloud backups you enable apply separately. The developer does not receive this data.
Running timers can be shown as a Live Activity or widget and made available to Siri and Shortcuts. These display or expose project and tag names on your device, possibly on the Lock Screen. Review your iOS Lock Screen and Siri settings if this matters to you.
3. Optional calendar feeds
If you add a calendar URL (HTTPS, webcal or webcals; webcal is converted to HTTPS), the app downloads the feed directly from that server when you import or review events, using the iOS networking stack. Plain HTTP is rejected. The server sees your IP address, the request time and the full URL, which may contain a private access token. It processes this under its own policy. The response is parsed on the device and is not sent to the developer or any other service.
The URL, including any token, is saved unencrypted within the local app database. The app displays a shortened form and avoids logging the full URL, but anyone with access to an unlocked device, app data or a backup may be able to read it. Add only feeds you own or are authorised to access, and revoke a feed’s token with its provider if it may have been exposed.
4. Exports, support and sharing
CSV export happens only when you request it. The file contains project names, tags, notes, timestamps and durations of all entries, is created in the app’s temporary directory and handed to the iOS share sheet. The destination you choose (another app, cloud storage, message or email) receives the data and is independent of this app. The CSV is not encrypted.
If you contact support, your message, address and attachments are processed by the mail services involved. Do not send private calendar URLs, tokens or confidential time entries unless necessary.
5. Retention, deletion and backups
Data stays until you delete it: you can edit or delete entries, projects, tags and calendar configurations in the app, or delete the app, which removes its local data. Deleting a project can delete its entries; the app asks for confirmation. Deleted data cannot be restored by the app, and exported copies, copies in your device or cloud backups, and data already sent to a calendar server are not affected. There is no developer-operated copy of your data, so the developer cannot recover it either.
If the saved database cannot be opened, the app keeps the original data untouched and works with an unsaved temporary session; it shows a warning and advises you to contact support before reinstalling.
6. Your choices and requests
You can use the app without any calendar feed, limit exports, and control Live Activity, Siri and Lock Screen settings in iOS. For access, correction, deletion or privacy questions contact apps@cblum.ch. Applicable data-protection rights remain unaffected.
7. Use and liability limits
Use the app at your own risk. Timestamps, durations, calendar imports, charts and CSV files can be inaccurate, incomplete or lost; verify them before relying on them for billing, payroll, tax, contracts or legal purposes. The app provides no accounting, tax or legal advice. Keep your own backups.
To the extent permitted by law, the app is provided without warranties of accuracy, completeness, availability or fitness for a particular purpose. To that extent, liability for damage from use or unavailability is excluded, including data loss, lost profits and consequential damage. Mandatory legal rights and liability remain unaffected, including for intent or gross negligence and where liability for personal injury cannot be excluded.
