The short version: Hush collects no data about you. Everything stays on your device. There is nothing to see here.
No account required
Hush does not ask you to create an account, provide an email address, or sign in with any third-party service. You open the app and use it — no registration, no onboarding gate, no identity.
No data collected
Hush does not collect, transmit, or store any personal information. This includes:
- No name, email address, or contact information
- No location data
- No usage analytics or session tracking
- No crash reporting sent to any third party
- No device identifiers shared externally
All audio processing is on-device
Every sound in Hush is a local audio file bundled with the app. Playback, mixing, and volume control happen entirely on your iPhone using AVAudioEngine. No audio is streamed from a server, and no audio data is ever sent anywhere.
Sleep timer is local-only
The sleep timer is a local countdown. It is not synced to any server, not logged, and not reported anywhere. When the timer fires, AVAudioSession simply stops — nothing else happens.
No analytics SDK
Hush contains no third-party analytics library (no Firebase, no Mixpanel, no Amplitude, no Sentry, no Facebook SDK, no Google SDK). There is one networking call in the entire app: the App Store receipt validation that Apple handles natively when you restore a purchase — this is Apple's infrastructure, not ours.
In-app purchases
Purchase transactions are handled entirely by Apple's StoreKit framework. Hush never sees your payment information. Apple's privacy policy governs that transaction.
Children
Hush is suitable for all ages and specifically designed to be safe for households with infants and young children. Because no data is collected at all, there is nothing age-gating is needed to protect.
Changes to this policy
If the privacy practices of Hush ever change, we will update this page and revise the effective date. Given the nature of the app (no data collection), we do not anticipate changes.
