Privacy Policy
Hourra · Effective October 26, 2026
Hourra (the “app”) is published by Furkan Bağcı, an independent developer based in Türkiye (“we”, “us”). This policy explains what data the app handles, where it goes, and the choices you have.
The short version
- No account. We never ask for your name, email address or phone number.
- Your pay data stays with you. Jobs, pay rates, shifts and earnings are stored on your iPhone. If you turn on iCloud sync, they are stored in your private iCloud database. We cannot see them.
- Usage statistics, linked to a random identifier. We collect a small set of app events, such as “onboarding completed”, to improve the app. They are not linked to your name, email or Apple Account, and never include your pay rate, hours, earnings, job names or notes. You can turn them off.
- Purchases go through Apple. We use RevenueCat to check whether you have Pro. We never see your payment details.
- No ads and no tracking. We do not track you across other companies’ apps or websites. We do not sell or share your personal information.
1. Data that stays on your device
The app stores the following on your iPhone:
- Jobs: name, color, hourly rate, currency, pay period, payday and the overtime, premium, rounding and withholding settings you choose.
- Shifts: start and end times, breaks, notes and rate changes.
- Setup answers: for example, how you work and your usual weekly hours.
- App settings.
Widgets and the Live Activity read this data on your device. The Live Activity shows only the job name and the elapsed time. It never shows pay amounts.
PDF and CSV files you export are created on your device. You choose where to send them through the iOS share sheet. We do not receive a copy.
This data is not sent to us. Deleting the app deletes it from your device.
2. iCloud sync (Pro)
If you use iCloud sync, your app data is stored in the app’s private database in your iCloud account through Apple’s CloudKit. Only you can access it; we cannot. Apple’s privacy policy governs iCloud. You can delete this data at any time in iOS Settings → your name (Apple Account) → iCloud → Manage Account Storage.
3. Usage statistics (PostHog)
We use PostHog to understand how people use the app, for example where people stop during setup or which screens cause problems. PostHog stores this data in the European Union.
What is collected:
- Event names, such as “onboarding step completed” or “paywall viewed”.
- Coarse categories, such as your usual weekly hours as a range like “36–40”, your pay frequency, which overtime preset you picked and where you heard about the app.
- Technical details the PostHog library adds to each event: app name, version and build; iOS version; device model and type; screen size; language, region and time zone; whether you are on Wi-Fi or cellular; and the library’s version.
- A random identifier created by the app. It is not linked to your name, email or Apple Account, and a new one is created if you reinstall the app.
What is never collected: pay rates, hours or earnings figures, shift times, job names, notes, location, contacts, or the advertising identifier (IDFA).
PostHog receives your IP address as part of the network connection. We have configured PostHog not to look up a location from it and not to store it.
Usage statistics are on by default. You can turn them off at any time in the app’s Settings (“Share usage statistics”). While they are off, the app does not contact PostHog at all.
4. Purchases (Apple and RevenueCat)
Payments are processed by Apple under your Apple Account. We never receive your card or bank details.
We use RevenueCat, Inc. (USA) to confirm purchases and restore Pro on your devices. RevenueCat receives:
- a random app user ID
- purchase details: product, price, currency, dates, App Store transaction IDs and storefront country
- technical data such as app version, device type, iOS version and IP address
RevenueCat’s privacy policy applies to its processing.
5. Data from Apple
If you chose to share analytics with app developers in iOS settings, Apple gives us crash reports and aggregated usage statistics. These do not identify you.
6. Notifications
Reminders, such as forgetting to clock out, a free trial ending soon or a subscription renewing, are scheduled on your device. We ask for permission only when a reminder is relevant. You can turn reminders off in iOS Settings. We do not send marketing notifications.
7. Why we use data (legal bases)
- To provide the app and Pro features you purchased (performance of a contract).
- To improve the app and keep it working, using usage statistics and crash reports (our legitimate interest in a reliable, useful app). You can object at any time; see section 3.
- To meet legal obligations, such as tax records for purchases, which Apple handles.
8. Sharing
We share data only with the service providers named above (PostHog and RevenueCat), who process it on our behalf under data processing agreements. We may also disclose data when the law requires it. We do not sell personal information. We do not “share” it for cross-context behavioral advertising, as defined by California law.
9. International transfers
RevenueCat processes data in the United States. Where data moves out of the EU, UK or Turkey, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
10. Retention
- Device and iCloud data: kept until you delete it.
- Usage statistics: kept for the retention period of our PostHog plan, currently one year, then deleted.
- Purchase records: kept by RevenueCat for as long as needed to provide your purchases and meet legal requirements.
11. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- access, correct or delete your personal data
- object to or restrict its processing
- receive a portable copy
- complain to a data protection authority, such as your EU/UK supervisory authority, the Turkish KVKK Authority or Brazil’s ANPD
Because we do not know who you are, we usually cannot link a request to app data. Your pay data is under your control on your device and in iCloud. To make a request, email hello@furkanbagci.com.
12. US state privacy rights
Depending on where you live (for example California, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas or Virginia), you may have the right to confirm whether we process your personal data and to access it, correct it, delete it, get a portable copy, and opt out of the sale of personal data, targeted advertising and certain profiling. We do not sell personal data or use it for targeted advertising or for profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects. To make a request, email hello@furkanbagci.com. We respond within 45 days. If we decline your request, you can appeal by replying with the subject “Appeal”; we will respond within 60 days, and if we deny your appeal you may contact your state Attorney General. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.
13. Do Not Track
We do not collect personal information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or apps, and we do not allow other companies to collect it through Hourra. Because we don’t do this kind of tracking, the app does not change its behavior in response to “Do Not Track” signals or similar mechanisms such as Global Privacy Control.
14. Children and age range
Hourra is not directed to children under 13, or under 16 in the EU and UK. If we learn that we collected personal information from a child under 13, we will delete it.
Where the law requires it (for example in Texas), Hourra asks Apple for your age range. The check happens on your device; we do not send the result to PostHog or RevenueCat. If it shows you are under 13, the app turns usage statistics off.
15. Security
Data on your iPhone is protected by iOS data protection and your device passcode. Data in transit to our service providers is encrypted (HTTPS).
16. Changes
If we change this policy, we will update the date above. If the change is significant, we will tell you in the app.
