Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 12, 2026
MedTimer ("MedTimer", "we", "us") helps you and the people who care for you stay on top of medication. Because the app handles health-related information, we treat your data with care. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have.
1. Information we collect
- Account information — your email address and display name, used to sign you in and identify you within your family care circle.
- Health & medication data — the medications you add, their dosages and schedules, the doses you mark taken, missed, or snoozed, and optional profile details you choose to enter (such as birth date, height, or weight).
- Photos — optional medication photos and a profile picture, if you add them.
- Device & preference data — your time zone, language, and a push-notification token so reminders can reach your device.
- Subscription status — whether you have an active MedTimer subscription, processed through our payments provider. We do not receive or store your full payment card details.
2. How we use your information
- To deliver medication reminders and alarms at the times you set.
- To calculate your adherence statistics, streaks, and history.
- To enable the family care circle you explicitly create — sharing dose status and check-ins with members you invite.
- To send check-in alerts to your chosen contacts when configured.
- To operate and secure the service, and to provide customer support.
3. Sharing within your care circle
MedTimer only shares your medication and check-in information with the family members or caregivers you personally invite and link. You can remove a member at any time, which revokes their access. We never sell your data or share it for advertising.
4. Service providers
We rely on a small number of trusted processors to run the app:
- Supabase — secure database, authentication, and file storage.
- Expo — delivery of push notifications to your device.
- RevenueCat & Apple — subscription management and in-app purchases.
These providers process data only to perform services for us and are bound by their own data-protection obligations.
5. How we protect your data
Data is encrypted in transit. Each user's records are isolated at the database level with row-level security, so other users cannot read your data, and members of your care circle can only see what your sharing settings allow. Medication and profile photos are stored privately and served through short-lived, signed links.
6. Data retention and deletion
We keep your data for as long as your account is active. You can permanently delete your account and all associated data at any time from Settings → Delete Account inside the app. Deletion removes your medications, schedules, logs, photos, and profile. Note that cancelling a subscription is handled separately through your App Store account settings.
7. Children
MedTimer is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them.
8. Your rights
You can access and update your information in the app, and delete your account and data as described above. If you have questions or requests, contact us and we will help.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected here with a new "last updated" date.
