Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 9, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Pinewood Creations LLC ("Smorgiapps," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses and shares information in connection with your use of our applications, including Smorgi, BubbleText, MindfulAI Keyboard, No Time to Speed, AlterEgo AI Keyboard, and our website at smorgiapps.com (collectively, the "Services").
1. Information We Collect
Information You Provide
- Account Information: Email address when you sign up for waitlists, newsletters, or create an account.
- Purchase Information: Subscription and purchase data processed through Apple's App Store. We do not directly collect payment card information.
- Support Communications: Messages you send to us via email or in-app support.
Information Collected Automatically
- Usage Data: Anonymous analytics about how you use our apps, including features used and session duration.
- Device Information: Device type, operating system version and app version for compatibility and debugging purposes.
- Location Data (No Time to Speed only): GPS data is processed locally on your device for speed tracking. We do not transmit or store your location data on our servers.
- Challenge Data (Smorgi Challenge): To enable the social alarm game features, we store your user ID, friend connections, game session data, challenge completion records, coin balance, power-up usage, and alarm interaction data. This data is necessary to facilitate multiplayer gameplay and maintain your game state.
Information We Do NOT Collect
- Keyboard Input: BubbleText, MindfulAI and AlterEgo keyboards do NOT transmit or store what you type. All text processing occurs locally on your device.
- Challenge Data: Smorgi Challenge stores your task completions, streaks and challenge preferences to provide the service. This data is associated with your account.
2. Alarm Notifications & Do Not Disturb
Smorgi Challenge uses critical alarm notifications that may break through Do Not Disturb, Silent Mode, and Focus modes. This is by design and essential to the gameplay:
- Purpose: Alarms deliver challenge notifications that require immediate attention as part of the game mechanics.
- User Control: You can adjust alarm intensity in app settings, but disabling critical alerts will prevent you from receiving challenges and may impact gameplay.
- System Integration: We use iOS Critical Alerts API which requires explicit user permission to bypass Do Not Disturb.
- Scheduling: You control when game sessions occur. Alarms only trigger during active game sessions you initiate.
- Consent: By using Smorgi Challenge and enabling critical alerts, you consent to receiving alarm notifications that may break through Do Not Disturb settings.
Important: Other apps (BubbleText, MindfulAI, No Time to Speed, AlterEgo) do NOT use critical alerts or break through Do Not Disturb.
