Privacy Policy

Last updated October 26, 2026

The short version. lokt has no account, no login, no servers, no analytics and no ads. Your calendar, your app choices and your focus history stay on your iPhone. We never see them, and we don't collect personal information through this website either.

Who we are

lokt is an iPhone app and website (uselokt.com) operated by Aidan Stone in Missouri, United States ("lokt", "we", "us"). For any privacy question or request, email support@uselokt.com.

The lokt app

Everything below is stored only on your iPhone, inside lokt's own storage, and is never sent to us or to anyone else. lokt contains no third-party code (no analytics, crash reporting, advertising or tracking SDKs) and makes no network requests of its own.

WhatWhyWhere it lives
Calendar events (titles, start and end times, which calendar) on the calendars you choose to includeTo know when to lock your apps. lokt keeps a copy of roughly the next week of events so locks still fire when the app is closed.Your iPhone only
The apps, categories and websites you pick to lockTo lock them. Apple gives lokt opaque tokens, not app names, so lokt itself cannot tell which apps you chose.Your iPhone only
Screen Time usage summaries shown in the Progress tabTo show your focus progress. Apple draws these in a sealed extension that cannot send data anywhere, including to us.Your iPhone only
Your lock rules, lock history and emergency unlocksTo run locks and show your progress.Your iPhone only
Onboarding answers: an optional first name, what you want time for, rough phone-time estimates, what you have tried beforeTo personalize the app's text and estimates.Your iPhone only

On-device AI

On iPhones that support Apple Intelligence, lokt uses Apple's on-device language model to suggest which event titles are focus time. The event title is processed on your iPhone. It is not sent to us. On other iPhones, lokt uses simple word matching instead.

Permissions

lokt asks for Calendar access and Screen Time access. You can turn either off at any time in the iOS Settings app. lokt stops locking when you do.

Purchases

Subscriptions are sold and billed by Apple through the App Store. We never receive your name, email, Apple ID or payment details. Apple gives us aggregated sales reports and lets the app confirm whether your subscription is active.

Information Apple shares with developers

If you turn on "Share with App Developers" in iOS Settings, Apple may send us anonymized crash reports and usage statistics through App Store Connect. These do not identify you, and you can turn this off in Settings > Privacy & Security > Analytics & Improvements.

Backups

If you back up your iPhone with iCloud or a computer, iOS includes lokt's stored data in that backup, under your control and Apple's policies. We have no access to it.

This website

uselokt.com has no forms, sets no cookies, and uses no analytics, advertising pixels or session recording. Two kinds of services still receive basic technical information when you visit:

ServiceWhat it receivesWhy
[WEB HOST]Standard server logs: IP address, browser type, pages visited, timeTo serve and secure the website
Google Fonts and Fontshare (Indian Type Foundry)Your IP address and browser details when your browser downloads our fontsTo display the website's typefaces

Emails you send us

If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you write, and use them only to reply. We delete support emails when they are no longer needed, and on request.

What we never do

Deleting your data

Because lokt has no account and keeps your data only on your iPhone, deleting the lokt app deletes all of it and removes lokt's Screen Time access. There is nothing stored on our side to delete. If you've emailed us and want that correspondence deleted, ask at support@uselokt.com.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example California, other US states, the UK or the EU), you may have the right to know what personal information we hold about you, get a copy, correct it, delete it, or object to how we use it. Apart from any emails you send us, we hold none. Email support@uselokt.com with any request and we will respond within 30 days. We will not treat you differently for making a request. If you are in the UK or EU, you may also complain to your local data protection authority.

Children

lokt is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

Security

App data stays inside iOS's app sandbox and App Group storage, protected by your iPhone's passcode and encryption. Keeping your data off our servers entirely is the strongest protection we can offer.

Changes

If we change how lokt handles data (for example, adding accounts, sync or a mailing list), we will update this page and the date above before the change takes effect, and tell you in the app if the change is significant.
