Priozar
Privacy Policy
Last updated: 25 October 2026
The short version
Priozar runs on your phone. The apps you choose to be interrupted for, and when you open them, never leave your device — not to Priozar, not to anyone else. If you turn on the optional account, your priority titles and your focus-session history can sync so you can pick up on a second device. If you choose AI help, the text you review is sent to OpenAI through our server to prepare suggestions. If you buy Pro, the purchase goes through Apple or Google — we never see your payment details.
The rest of this page explains that in full, because “trust us” isn’t good enough for an app that watches which apps you open.
Priozar is made by VisaAtlas Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales (company number 17117463) with its registered office at 124 City Road, London EC1V 2NX. VisaAtlas Ltd is responsible for the data described here — the data controller, in the language of UK and EU data protection law — and is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office under reference ZC193332. You can reach us at support@priozar.com, and your rights over your data are set out at the end.
What Priozar does on your device
Priozar’s core purpose is helping you notice a distraction and choose what to do about it. To do that, it needs to know when you open an app you’ve asked it to watch for. That detection happens entirely on your device:
- Android: Priozar reads the name and timestamp of the app currently in front, using Android’s Usage Access permission, which you grant and can revoke at any time in Settings. It compares that against the list of apps you chose, on the device, and nothing about what it observed is sent anywhere.
- iOS: Priozar uses Apple’s Screen Time API (Family Controls) to shield the apps you choose. Apple’s system tells Priozar that a shielded app was opened — it does not tell Priozar, and Priozar never asks, which specific app or website it was. That distinction is built into the operating system, not into our promise.
Priozar never reads screen contents, message contents, keystrokes, notification contents, your browsing history, microphone, or camera — on either platform, whether or not you’ve granted the permissions above.
Screen time on the Progress screen (Android only)
Priozar’s Progress screen can chart how much time you spend in the apps you chose to be interrupted for. On Android, that comes from the same Usage Access permission described above. It is worth being precise about what this does and does not involve:
- Android tells Priozar how long each app was in the foreground. Priozar adds those numbers up on your device into two totals per day — time in the apps you chose, and time in all apps — and keeps only those totals. The per-app breakdown is discarded where it is calculated and never reaches the rest of the app.
- Priozar excludes itself from both totals. Time spent reading your own progress is not screen time it should take credit for.
- None of it is ever sent anywhere. There is no column for it in our database, and it is not part of what syncs when you have an account.
- On iOS this chart is simply absent. Apple’s Screen Time system never tells an app how long anything was used, and Priozar does not ask.
Your calendar (optional, and off unless you turn it on)
Priozar can suggest a short burst of focus when you reach for a distraction. Without knowing your day, it will sometimes suggest twenty-five minutes when you have seven. If you switch on Use your calendar in Preferences, it reads the calendars already on your phone to work out how long you are actually free for. What that involves, precisely:
- It is off until you turn it on, in Preferences, and your phone will ask you separately for calendar permission. Turning the setting off stops the reading immediately. You can also revoke the permission in your phone’s settings at any time, and Priozar goes back to sizing suggestions without it.
- It reads the start time, end time, name and busy/free status of events in roughly the next eight hours. It reads no further ahead than that, because the longest block it can suggest is twenty-five minutes and anything beyond today’s next few hours could not change its advice.
- It does not read who else is invited, where an event is, or any notes or attachments on it. It never creates, edits or deletes an event — Priozar asks your phone for read access only, and on Android the permission to modify your calendar is deliberately stripped from the app before it is built.
- Everything it reads is reduced, on your device, to two things: how many minutes until you are next busy, and the name of the event that ends your free time — the second only so Priozar can say “Standup starts in 3 minutes” rather than expecting you to take its word for it. Every other event, and every other field, is discarded at that moment. The two that remain are held in memory while the app is running and are replaced the next time it checks. Neither is written to your phone’s storage, added to your focus history, or included in what syncs when you have an account. There is no column for either in our database, and no calendar information has ever left your phone.
What syncs, if you choose to create an account
An account is entirely optional. Priozar’s core loop — detection, intervention, focus timers, progress — works fully offline, with no account at all. Creating one buys exactly two things: carrying your data to a second device, and (if you buy Pro) carrying that purchase between Android and iOS.
If you do create an account and turn on sync, this is sent to our server (hosted on Supabase) and stored against your account:
| What syncs | What it looks like |
|---|---|
| Your email address | Used only to sign you in. |
| Onboarding answers | Whether you’re a student or professional, your communication-tone preference, your control-strength setting. Fixed choices, not free text. |
| The goal categories you picked | A catalogue key like “work-career” — not anything you typed. |
| Your priority titles | Whatever you type when you add a priority. This is the one place your own words are stored on our server, and it’s there so you can see your list on a second device. |
| Focus-session history | When a session started and ended, how long it was, whether it came from an interruption or was started manually. |
| A small event log | What happened and when (an intervention was shown, a session completed, an allowance was granted) — never which app it was about. |
What never syncs, even with an account and sync turned on: the Android package names or iOS app selections you’ve chosen to be interrupted for. There is no column for them in our database — this isn’t a setting you could accidentally change, it’s how the server is built. The list is not stored and then protected; there is nowhere on the server to put it, so there is nothing to leak, hand over, or misconfigure.
If you sign out or never sign in, the account and AI features are unavailable; the core protection and focus features still work on your device.
Optional AI help
AI help can suggest a small step, a short plan, a reflection on your week, or an explanation of your setup status. It is off until you open it and choose to request suggestions. You must sign in. Before each request you can read and edit the exact text that will be sent, then tap Share this text and get suggestions. You can use the app without AI help.
The request contains that text, the kind of help you chose, and your selected time budget. For a weekly reflection, the draft text may include priority titles and completed focus minutes from the last seven days. For setup help, it may include your phone platform, the number of selected apps or groups, and the current protection status. You can remove any of those details before sending. Priozar does not automatically send app names, Screen Time selections, messages, calendar events, or the apps you opened to AI help. Do not include sensitive information you do not want processed by an AI provider.
The request goes over an encrypted connection to our server, hosted by Supabase, and then to OpenAI to generate the suggestion. The server checks that you are signed in. It stores only your account's daily AI request count for a usage limit, not your prompt or the answer in the Priozar database. That count is deleted with your account. We ask OpenAI not to save the response as application state. Under OpenAI's standard API controls, request and response content may still appear in abuse-monitoring logs for up to 30 days, or longer where required by law or to protect the service. Deleting your Priozar account does not immediately erase those provider logs. See OpenAI's API data controls for the current terms.
AI suggestions may be wrong. You review them before using or saving them. AI does not control blocking, grant access to apps, or change phone permissions.
Purchases
If you buy Priozar Pro, the purchase is handled entirely by the Apple App Store or Google Play. We receive confirmation of what plan you’re entitled to — we do not receive your card details, billing address, or any other payment information; Apple and Google never share that with us. Restoring a purchase (if you reinstall, or move to a new phone on the same platform) is handled by the store directly.
Your export and deletion rights
From the Account screen, you can export everything Priozar holds about you as a single file, at any time, with no account required. That export deliberately includes the apps you’ve chosen to intercept, even though that list never leaves your device otherwise — it’s your data, and a copy that quietly left something out would be dishonest. What you do with the file afterwards — store it, delete it, share it — is your decision, and the export says so.
If you have an account, deleting it removes your account and everything synced with it from our server, permanently. Your on-device data (priorities, blocking rules, progress) is untouched — deleting your account signs you out of sync, it does not reset the app on your phone. How to delete your account sets out the steps, and exactly what is removed and what is kept.
Crash reports
Priozar does not use a third-party crash-reporting service. If the app crashes, the only report generated is the one your phone’s own operating system collects (Android vitals via Google Play, or — only if you’ve opted in to sharing analytics with app developers — crash reports via Apple). Neither requires anything from Priozar beyond existing as an installed app; neither is something we can turn off or configure, and neither sends us your name or any of your data — just that a crash happened, on what OS version, and where in the code.
Advertising and tracking
Priozar shows no ads, and contains no advertising or tracking SDK. There is no cross-app or cross-site tracking of any kind. This website sets no cookies and loads no third-party resources.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes in a way that affects what Priozar collects or how it’s used, we’ll update this page and the date above it. We won’t quietly widen what’s collected without saying so here first.
Your rights over your data
If you are in the UK or the EU, data protection law gives you a set of rights over your personal data. Two of them Priozar builds into the app itself, because a right you have to ask a company for is weaker than one you can exercise without asking anyone:
- Access and portability. The export on the Account screen, at any time, with no account and no request to us — a single file, readable by something other than Priozar.
- Erasure. Deleting your account removes everything synced with it from our server, permanently, from inside the app.
The rest you exercise by writing to us: correcting data that is wrong, objecting to or restricting how it is used, and withdrawing consent you previously gave. Write to support@priozar.com and we will answer within one month, which is the limit the law sets.
What allows us to hold it. For a user with an account, we process the data listed above to provide the sync you asked for — performance of a contract. For anything you switch on yourself, such as reading your calendar, the basis is your consent, and withdrawing it is the same toggle that granted it. There is no legitimate-interest processing, because there is no purpose here beyond running the features you turned on.
How long we keep it. Synced data stays until you delete your account or the individual records, and there is no separate archive or backup copy that outlives that. We do not retain anything after deletion for analytics, because we do not do analytics.
If you think we have handled your data badly, please tell us first — but you are entitled to complain to a data protection regulator without going through us. In the UK that is the Information Commissioner’s Office, ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint. In the EU it is the supervisory authority for the country you live in.
