Privacy policy

Last updated: 2026-10-07

1. Controller

The provider named in the legal notice is responsible for the app “Glimli” and this website. Contact: glimli@luhzifer.net

2. In short

Glimli collects no personal data. The app has no account, no ads, no analytics or tracking tools, and sends no data to us or to third parties.

3. Data in the app

• Glimli asks for no permissions – no camera, microphone, location, contacts, photos or notifications.
• Settings such as light color, start brightness, effect, sleep timer, sound, wake-up time and a count of the days you used Glimli (only so it asks for a rating at most once) are stored on your device only. They never leave it, except as part of your own device or iCloud backup, which Apple is responsible for.
• Screen brightness: Glimli changes the brightness only while it is in the foreground and restores your setting when you leave.
• Sounds are generated live on your device. Nothing is downloaded and nothing is recorded.
• Charging state: for the sunrise, Glimli checks on the device whether a charger is connected. This is neither stored nor transmitted.
• Ratings are requested through Apple’s standard interface. Apple alone processes whether and how you rate.

4. Purchase via the App Store

Glimli is sold through Apple’s App Store. Apple handles purchase, payment, download, Family Sharing and redeeming codes; Apple’s privacy policy applies. We receive no payment or contact data, only aggregated anonymous sales figures and – if you agreed in your device settings – anonymous crash reports.

5. Support via Ko-fi

This website contains a link to Ko-fi. Ko-fi’s own privacy policy applies. A tip does not unlock anything.

6. Contact by email

If you write to us, we process your email address and message only to answer your request (Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR). The message is deleted once it has been dealt with, unless statutory retention obligations apply.

7. This website

The website uses no cookies, no analytics and embeds no third-party content, not even external fonts. When you visit, the server necessarily processes your IP address, date and time, the page requested and your browser identifier to deliver the page and protect it against abuse (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Access logs are switched off.

8. Your rights

You have the right of access (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20) and to object (Art. 21), and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Art. 77). As the app collects no personal data, we hold no data about you from its use.

9. Changes

If the app changes, we update this policy. The version published here applies.
