Privacy Policy
Welcome to Bloop! We’re here to help you focus, make progress, and celebrate the little wins along the way.
Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information Bloop collects, how we use and protect it, when it may be shared, and what choices you have. Please read this policy carefully before using Bloop.
1. Who We Are
Bloop is a productivity and focus app designed to help you manage tasks, track focus sessions, build productive habits, and stay motivated with the help of virtual accountability companions.
In this policy, “Bloop,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to Oddnest, the operator of Bloop.
For privacy-related questions or requests, contact us using the email address above.

The information we collect depends on how you use Bloop, which features you enable, and the permissions you grant.
A. Account Information
Bloop offers account registration, we may collect:
- Your chosen display name.
- Your email address.
- Authentication information needed to verify your identity.
- Your profile preferences and account settings.
We will not require account information for features that do not need it.
We do not intend to collect passwords in plain text. Authentication credentials should be handled securely by our authentication provider or the app’s authentication system.
B. Tasks and Productivity Information
When you use Bloop to organise your work, we may collect information you enter or generate through your activity, including:
- Task names and descriptions.

We use this information to provide Bloop’s core productivity features, display your progress, and help you understand your focus habits.
Please avoid entering sensitive personal information into task names or descriptions.
Bloop is not designed to store confidential medical, financial, or other sensitive personal records.
C. App Usage and Distraction Information
Bloop may offer features that help you understand interruptions during focus sessions. Depending on the supported platform, the feature you enable, and the permissions available, this may include:
- Whether you leave or interrupt an active focus session.
- The duration of an interruption.
- The name or identifier of an app, where the operating system permits access and you have granted the necessary permission.
- The amount of time spent in an identifiable app during a supported tracking session.
- Focus session completion and interruption statistics.
App-level tracking is subject to the technical and privacy restrictions of your device’s operating system. Bloop will not claim to identify other apps or measure their usage when the platform does not permit it.
We do not intend to collect the contents of your messages, passwords, photographs, browsing content, or activity inside other apps.
Where the operating system does not support app-level tracking, Bloop may provide a more limited alternative, such as recording that a focus session was interrupted.
You can manage relevant permissions through your device settings where the operating system provides those controls.

- Device type and operating system version.
- App version.

4. Legal Bases for Processing
Where applicable privacy laws require a legal basis for processing personal information, we rely on one or more of the following, depending on the information and circumstances:
Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it. Withdrawing consent does not make earlier processing unlawful, and some features may no longer work if the information or permission is essential to them.

We do not control the independent privacy practices of Apple, Google, or other third-party providers.
Legal and Safety Reasons

We may share information for another purpose when you request or authorise us to do so, or when sharing is otherwise permitted by law.

We will take reasonable steps to ensure that information is handled in accordance with this policy and applicable privacy requirements.
8. How Long We Keep Your Information

Actual retention periods depend on the data type, technical implementation, and applicable legal requirements. When information is no longer needed, we will delete it or anonymise it where reasonably practicable.
Some information may remain temporarily in backups or records that must be retained by law. Where applicable, it will be protected and deleted in accordance with our retention procedures.

For privacy requests or assistance, contact: oddnestco@gmail.com
10. Account and Data Deletion
If you create a Bloop account, you may request deletion of your account and associated personal information.
Where required by applicable law or platform policy, account deletion must be available through an appropriate in-app process. If accounts can be created through Bloop’s website, we will also provide a suitable deletion-request method for those accounts where required.
When we receive a valid deletion request, we will:
- Verify the request where reasonably necessary.
- Delete or anonymise personal information that we are not required or permitted to retain.
- Retain only information necessary for legitimate legal, security, accounting, or dispute-resolution purposes.
- Explain any applicable limitations if we cannot immediately delete certain information.
- Deletion from active systems may not immediately remove information from backups, but retained backup data will be protected and removed according to our retention schedule.
- Deleting your Bloop account may result in the loss of tasks, focus history, achievements, and other associated data.
Deleting your Bloop account does not necessarily cancel an Apple App Store or Google Play subscription. You must manage or cancel subscriptions through the relevant store if applicable.
11. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
Depending on our implementation, these measures may include access controls, secure authentication, encryption in transit, restricted administrative access, and appropriate security monitoring.
No method of electronic storage or internet transmission is completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for protecting access to your device and account credentials.
If a personal data breach occurs, we will take appropriate steps to investigate, mitigate its effects, and provide notifications where required by applicable law.
12. Children’s Privacy
Bloop is intended for a general audience and is not designed specifically for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without any legally required authorisation.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child has provided personal information to Bloop inappropriately, please contact us at oddnestco@gmail.com. We will investigate and take appropriate steps.
Where applicable laws impose a higher minimum age or additional requirements for children’s data, we will comply with those requirements.
If Bloop is later designed or marketed to children, we will review and update its privacy practices and obtain any required parental consent before collecting children’s personal information.
13. Third-Party Services and Links
Bloop may rely on third-party services to provide authentication, cloud storage, analytics, payments, or other functionality. Our website may also contain links to external websites.
Those services and websites may have their own privacy policies and data practices. We encourage you to review their policies before providing information directly to them. We are not responsible for the independent privacy practices of third parties outside our control.
14. International Users
Bloop may be used by people in different countries. If you use Bloop from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Nigeria, or another jurisdiction with applicable data protection laws, you may have additional rights under those laws.
Where applicable, we will process personal information in accordance with the relevant legal requirements, including requirements concerning lawful processing, transparency, data security, international transfers, and individual rights.
If you are located in a jurisdiction that provides a right to complain to a data protection authority, you may exercise that right with the relevant authority.
15. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when Bloop’s features, technology, service providers, or legal obligations change. When we make changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
