Your data stays yours.
Focus Lock doesn't want your data — it never even asks for it. No accounts, no analytics, no trackers, no ad networks. Just a timer that runs quietly on your own machine.

What we collect, in plain English.
No legal maze, no fine print designed to confuse you. Here's exactly what happens with your information.
No accounts, no sign-ups
Focus Lock never asks for an email, a username, or a password. There's nothing to create and nothing tied to your identity.
Everything stays on your device
Your timer settings, schedule, and session history are stored locally on your computer only — never uploaded anywhere.
No analytics or telemetry
We don't run Google Analytics, crash reporters, or any hidden pings home. The app doesn't watch how you use it.
Nothing to sell, so we don't
There's no ad network, no data broker, no third party we share information with — because we never collect any in the first place.
Built clean.
No malware. No shortcuts.
Focus Lock is written and shipped by one independent developer — nothing bundled, nothing hidden, nothing sold alongside it. But please don't just take our word for it.
Any doubt at all? Upload Focus_Lock_Setup_1_0_0.exe to VirusTotal and check it against 70+ antivirus engines before you run it — it only takes a minute.
Focus Lock isn't signed by a paid code-signing certificate authority, so Windows SmartScreen and some antivirus tools automatically flag any unsigned installer from a small developer — famous open-source apps get the same warning in their early days. It's a trust signal about how new and small we are, not a detection of anything malicious. If it still makes you uneasy, that's completely fair — scan it on VirusTotal first, every time.
Five things worth remembering
This policy will grow as Focus Lock grows — if that ever changes (say, an optional cloud-sync feature down the line), this page will be updated first, clearly, and any new data collection will always be opt-in. Questions? Reach out any time.
