Audio analysis takes place directly on your smartphone.
We do not transfer audio recordings to the cloud or to other servers.
We do not use tracking or analytics tools, either in the app or on our website.

Privacy Policy
HolySleep was developed around one clear principle:
Your sleep data belongs to you – and you alone.
Introduction
Thank you for your interest in HolySleep.
Protecting your personal data is very important to us.
Our basic idea is simple:
Your sleep data belongs to you – and you alone.
That is why both our website and the HolySleep app are designed to process as little personal data as possible.
Below, we explain transparently what data is processed on this website and why.

2. Our Approach to Data Processing
We follow a clear privacy-focused approach:
• no tracking tools
• no analytics or advertising platforms
• no creation of user profiles
• no sharing of data for marketing purposes
Our website primarily serves to:
• provide information about HolySleep, and
• give you a simple way to contact us.
3. Website Hosting
Our website is hosted by a hosting provider with servers located in Germany.
When you visit our website, technically necessary data may be processed as part of the hosting service.
This may include in particular:
• IP address
• date and time of access
• pages accessed
• browser type and browser version
• operating system used
This data is technically necessary to provide the website and to ensure the stability and security of the systems.
Our hosting provider may receive this data as a processor acting on our behalf.
Processing is based on:
Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR
(legitimate interest in providing our website securely and reliably)
Server log data is stored only for as long as necessary for the secure and proper operation of the website and is subsequently deleted, unless legal requirements or security-related reasons require longer retention.
4. Language Selection
To remember the language you have selected, our website uses a technically necessary cookie (pll_language).
This cookie is used solely to provide the website in your selected language. It is not used for tracking, analytics or advertising purposes.
5. Contact Form
If you contact us using the contact form, we process the data you provide solely for the purpose of handling your enquiry.
The following data may be processed:
• name
• email address
• your message
• any additional information you provide voluntarily
We use this data solely to process and respond to your enquiry.
Depending on the nature of your enquiry, the legal basis is:
Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR
(processing of a contractual or pre-contractual enquiry)
or
Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR
(legitimate interest in communicating with website visitors)
The data is deleted once your enquiry has been fully handled and there are no statutory retention obligations or other legitimate reasons requiring further storage.
6. Fonts
For a consistent presentation of our website, we use fonts that are hosted locally on our server.
When these fonts are loaded, no connection is established to servers operated by Google or other font providers.
7. No Tracking or Analytics Tools
We do not use analytics or tracking tools on this website, such as:
• Google Analytics

We deliberately avoid analysing your behaviour on our website or using it for marketing purposes.

As a general principle:
