Controller and contact
BarLock is operated by CODE IN MOTION SRL, a company based in Romania. In this policy, "we", "us", and "our" mean CODE IN MOTION SRL. "You" means the person using the BarLock app or barlock.app.
For questions or privacy requests, contact [email protected].
Information we process
- Alarm and mission data used by the app, such as alarm time, repeat days, sound choice, wake-check settings, mission label, and saved barcode or QR value.
- Permission and device state needed for app behavior, such as AlarmKit authorization, notifications, and camera permission.
- Lifetime Pro entitlement status from Apple. We do not receive or store payment card details.
- Support information you choose to send, such as email address, message content, screenshots, diagnostics, or other details in a support request.
- Website server logs from barlock.app, such as IP address, request time, browser, device type, referring page, and pages requested.
Permissions and local data
BarLock asks for camera access so you can scan barcodes and QR codes. The camera view is used for scanning; camera frames are not intended to be uploaded to our servers. The app stores the chosen code needed to verify the mission.
BarLock asks for alarm and notification permissions so it can schedule protected alarms through iOS. You can change permissions in iOS Settings, but disabling them may prevent the app from working as intended.
How we use information
- Provide BarLock's alarm, mission, scanning, and Lifetime Pro features.
- Verify whether a scan matches the mission attached to an alarm.
- Restore or validate App Store entitlement status.
- Respond to support requests and investigate bugs or crashes you report.
- Protect the service, comply with legal obligations, and enforce our Terms.
Legal bases for processing
When EU or EEA data protection law applies, we rely on contract performance to provide BarLock, consent for optional permissions, legitimate interests for security and support, and legal obligations where we must keep or disclose information.
Sharing
We do not sell personal data. We may share limited information with service providers when needed to operate BarLock and barlock.app.
- Apple, for App Store distribution, purchases, and platform services.
- Hosting, infrastructure, and email providers that help deliver the website and support communications.
- Professional advisers, authorities, or courts when required by law or necessary to protect legal rights.
- A successor organization if BarLock or substantially all related assets are transferred, subject to this policy or a replacement policy we disclose.
Retention
Alarm and mission data is generally stored on your device until you delete it, reset BarLock, or uninstall the app. Support records are kept only as long as reasonably needed to handle your request and maintain business records. Website logs are kept for security, debugging, and operations, then deleted or anonymized when no longer needed.
International transfers
We are based in Romania, but service providers may process data in other countries. When personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we rely on appropriate safeguards where required by law, such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent transfer mechanisms.
Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or receive a copy of personal data. You may also withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
To exercise these rights, email [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity before responding. If you are in the EEA and believe we have not handled your request properly, you may contact your local supervisory authority. In Romania, the supervisory authority is ANSPDCP at dataprotection.ro.
Children
BarLock is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal data to us, contact us so we can review and delete it where required.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. No method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as BarLock changes. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date. If a change materially affects your rights, we will make reasonable efforts to provide additional notice.
