This policy covers Fast From for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Android.
The Fast From website privacy policy covers visits to the Fast From website and communications sent to JonWard.IO LLC.
Washington consumers can also read the Fast From Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy.
Fast From records stored on Apple devices
Fast From stores the following records on the user's Apple devices:
- apps, app categories, and websites selected through Apple's Screen Time controls;
- one-time and recurring fast schedules;
- active and completed fast records;
- the newest 50 fast-history entries;
- fast dates, times, durations, selected-item counts, outcomes, and extension events;
- Fast Points, levels, badges, and achievement records;
- an optional Reason entered by the user;
- an optional reflection response of Yes, Somewhat, or No;
- accountability settings and records, including locally generated salt, hash, failed-attempt count, and cooldown timing;
- notification and app preferences;
- Apple Watch fast status and related state; and
- local technical records used to start, stop, reconcile, and display fasts.
Fast-history entries exclude selected app names, app tokens, category names, website names, and website tokens.
Company access and app data transmission
Fast From keeps the records listed above on the user's Apple devices. The public app sends zero Fast From app records to JonWard.IO LLC. JonWard.IO LLC has zero access to those device-local records.
The public app contains zero advertising, developer analytics, cross-app tracking, user accounts, developer telemetry, custom data uploads, or company-operated app-data servers.
How Fast From uses device-local records
Fast From uses device-local records to:
- start and end fasts requested by the user;
- apply the user's selected Screen Time restrictions;
- run recurring schedules;
- show active-fast status, history, Fast Points, levels, and badges;
- apply the user's accountability settings;
- deliver local notifications requested through app settings; and
- display fast status on Apple Watch.
Apple services
Fast From uses Apple platform services for:
- Screen Time app, category, and website selection and restriction;
- App Store distribution and purchases;
- local notifications;
- device backups and device transfers;
- communication between Fast From on iPhone and Apple Watch; and
- the Apple share sheet when a user chooses to share an achievement.
Apple handles information processed through these services under Apple's terms and privacy practices.
User-directed sharing
Fast From creates an achievement image and caption after the user selects Share achievement. Shared achievement content excludes the user's Reason, reflection response, and selected apps, categories, and websites.
The user chooses the destination through Apple's share sheet. The selected destination receives the shared content under that destination's privacy practices.
Retention
Fast From retains device-local records as follows:
- fast history retains the newest 50 entries;
- recurring schedules remain until the user changes or removes them;
- active-fast and completion records remain for the time needed to operate and reconcile the fast; and
- preferences, achievements, accountability settings, and other app records remain until the user changes them or deletes Fast From.
Deletion and Apple backups
Deleting Fast From from an Apple device removes the app and its locally stored data from that device. Apple manages copies held in iCloud Backup, device backups, and device transfers under the user's Apple settings and Apple's privacy practices.
Optional Reason and Washington consumers
The optional Reason field stores text entered by the user on the user's Apple device. A user may choose to enter health-related information in that field.
The Fast From Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy provides Washington-specific disclosures and the applicable request and appeal process.
Android version
This section covers Fast From for Android provided by JonWard.IO LLC, doing business as JonWard Studios. The Apple-specific sections above apply to the Apple versions.
Information used on your Android phone
Fast From stores information in its private application storage to carry out the fasts you choose. This includes:
- selected app identifiers, reviewed category membership, and selected website domains;
- fast start and end times, schedules, completion status, and related timing records;
- the newest 50 history entries, selected-item counts, Fast Points, levels, and badges;
- optional reasons and reflection responses;
- preferences, including choices for general and faith-based encouragement;
- partner-code verification information, including a random salt, a one-way code hash, unsuccessful-attempt counts, and retry timing; and
- local records used to manage encouragement, schedules, completion screens, and access allowances.
History preserves the selected-item count and fast outcome. Detailed selections are retained separately when needed for an active fast, saved schedule, or pending completion.
Android permissions and app observation
You choose whether to enable Fast From's Accessibility Service in Android Settings. While enabled, the service receives information about the foreground app and can access window content exposed through Android's accessibility system.
Fast From uses app identifiers and recognized browser address fields to compare your current activity with the items you selected. These comparisons take place on your phone. Category selections use the installed apps displayed for your review.
Website detection depends on recognizable address fields in Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Brave, and Samsung Internet. Browser versions and settings can affect detection.
Notification permission enables Fast From's local notifications. Exact-alarm access helps it run scheduled starts and releases. You can review and change these permissions in Android Settings. Turning off the Accessibility Service stops Fast From's pause function.
Company access and information you choose to send
The Android app performs its fasting functions using device-local records. Its current implementation sends zero fasting records automatically to JonWard.IO LLC.
You control separate sharing and communication actions. Achievement sharing passes an image and caption to the destination you select through Android. The generated achievement contains duration, item count, points, and applicable badges; reasons, reflections, and selected-item identities stay outside that content.
Opening a policy loads the website in your browser. Sending an email delivers your address, message, and chosen attachments through the mail providers to JonWard.IO LLC. The Website Privacy Policy describes those communications.
Android retention and deletion
Fast From retains its newest 50 history entries. Saved schedules remain until you remove them. Active records remain until Fast From processes completion or early end. Selections retained for a scheduled completion remain until you acknowledge that completion, start its extension, or its associated history entry expires from the 50-entry history.
Preferences and cumulative achievements remain in application storage until changed or cleared. Generated achievement images may remain in the app's temporary cache until Android clears that cache or you clear the app's data.
An in-place app update preserves existing records. Clearing Fast From's application storage or uninstalling it removes its local records from that installation. Copies you previously shared remain subject to the receiving service's controls.
The Android app is configured with Android cloud backup disabled.
Google Play purchases and access
Google Play processes purchases of Annual Access and Lifetime Unlock under Google's terms and privacy practices. Fast From uses Google Play Billing to request the current purchase state and verifies signed purchase information on the phone. Fast From stores the verified access type, verification time, and applicable access limits in its private application storage. Annual Access can remain available for up to seven days after the last successful verification while the phone is offline. Lifetime Unlock remains available offline after verification. You can refresh purchases in Fast From and manage a subscription through Google Play.
The Google Play Billing library includes diagnostic logging to Google. Its logging path includes billing-operation results, app and library versions, a billing-client session value, Android version, and device technical details such as model and memory. Google processes information received through its services under its privacy practices.
Policy changes
JonWard.IO LLC will publish the revised policy and its new effective date before a new app data practice becomes active.
