We know legal documents are about as exciting as watching paint dry, but stick with us — we've made this as human-friendly as possible while still keeping the lawyers happy.
The TL;DR
By using Wakeout, you agree to these terms. We respect your privacy, you're responsible for exercising safely, and we're here to help you escape the chair trap. Simple as that.
Part one
The truth: Notifications are optional, but turning them off is like buying an alarm clock and removing the batteries. Our smart reminders are literally the difference between escaping the chair trap and staying stuck. They're not spam — they're rescue signals.
Look, we love that you're ready to break free from sedentary life, but let's be clear about something important:
The safety agreement: By using Wakeout, you agree that it's YOUR responsibility to keep yourself safe. If you injure yourself, you agree to absolve Wakeout and its team of any and all responsibility for injury of any kind.
When you Sign in with Apple (SiWA):

Here's the exciting part about our Active Pass feature:
The privacy win: We use Apple's Screen Time API to help you turn screen time into movement time. But here's the beautiful part — we CANNOT and will NEVER see how you use your apps.
Think of it like having a really respectful roommate who can lock the fridge but has no idea what you're eating.
Heads up: Screen Time API access is optional, but we seriously recommend enabling it. Without Active Pass, you're missing out on Wakeout's most powerful feature — the one that makes movement irresistible by turning your apps into rewards. It's like having a Ferrari but never taking it out of first gear.
We work with a few trusted partners to make Wakeout awesome:
What we can write:
What we can read (if you let us):
Our promise: Health data is sacred. We don't mine it, sell it, share it, or use it for anything except helping you track your progress. Period.
Real talk: Apple Health access is technically optional, but skipping it seriously damages your Wakeout experience. Without it, we can't track your movement properly, calculate accurate Wakeout Watts, or celebrate your victories. It's essential for the full experience — like trying to drive without wheels.
Let's talk dollars and sense:
The deal: You must have an active subscription to use Wakeout. No subscription = no movement revolution. But here's the good news — we offer both recurring subscriptions AND a one-time lifetime purchase option for those who hate monthly bills.

From iOS Settings:
Refunds: Need a refund? Apple handles those too. Simply go to reportaproblem.apple.com.
Your data, your choice. Here's how to manage it:
For any other data questions, email us at hello@wakeout.co. We love transparency.
Sometimes we need to update this document (laws change, features evolve, lawyers insist). When we do:
We built Wakeout to help you escape the chair trap and live a more energized life. These terms ensure we can do that while keeping you safe and your privacy protected.
By using Wakeout, you're joining a movement (literally) of people who refuse to let furniture dictate their vitality. Welcome to the revolution.

Part two
The TL;DR: Wakeout for Chrome is a privacy-first extension. No data collection. No sign-up. Just simple movement reminders that save locally in your browser. It's that simple.
Our promise: Wakeout for Chrome is built with privacy at its core. We don't collect any personal data, period. Your movement statistics, preferences, and usage patterns never leave your browser.
Here's the only analytics we use (and why):
Minimal analytics: We use basic Google Analytics solely to understand if the extension is working properly and being used. This includes anonymous aggregated data like installation counts and basic usage patterns — nothing personally identifiable.
Think of it like a headcount at a concert — we know people showed up, but we have no idea who they are.
Free forever: Wakeout for Chrome is completely free. No subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no premium features. We built it as a simple tool to help you move more while working — that's it.
Safety first: Just like with the iOS app, you're responsible for exercising safely. If you injure yourself while doing a movement, you agree to absolve Wakeout and its team of any and all responsibility for injury of any kind.
If we need to update these terms, we'll post the changes here. Continuing to use the extension means you accept the updates.
Wakeout for Chrome is a simple, privacy-first tool to help you move more during your workday. No tracking, no accounts, no hassle — just helpful movement reminders when you need them.
Install it, set your preferences, and start breaking free from the chair trap — right from your browser.
Questions or feedback? We'd love to hear from you at hello@wakeout.co.

Part three
The TL;DR: Ask ChatGPT for a movement break and Wakeout plays one, right in the chat. No account, no sign-up, nothing to buy. We get the few words ChatGPT sends us about the kind of break you want, plus anonymous usage stats that aren't linked to you.
When you ask ChatGPT for a break (or tell it you've been glued to your chair), it can call Wakeout. We pick a short guided break, usually one minute, and play it in the chat: a video of each move and a timer. That's the whole trick.
Each time ChatGPT starts a break, it sends us:
What we don't receive: your name, your email, your OpenAI account, or your conversation with ChatGPT. Your chats with ChatGPT are covered by OpenAI's privacy policy, not ours.
Technical data: like any website, our servers see standard technical information when the break loads (such as your IP address and the time of the request). We use it only to deliver the break and keep the service running safely.
To learn whether the plugin is actually useful, the plugin creates a random ID the first time it plays a break and keeps it in the plugin's own storage on your device. It is not linked to your name, your email, your OpenAI account or your conversation, and we have no way to tell who you are from it. Along with that ID, the plugin sends us events such as:
Your break and move totals shown on the celebration card are also kept in that same storage on your device.
We don't build profiles, we don't use it for ads, and we never sell it.
That's the list. Nobody else gets it.
Break requests and technical data live in our server logs, which are deleted automatically within 30 days. Usage stats are anonymous: they aren't linked to you, so there's no profile of you to keep.
The plugin is free. No subscriptions, no in-chat purchases, no sign-in. If you want more breaks, reminders and games, the full Wakeout app is a tap away at wakeout.app, but that's entirely your call.
Same deal as everywhere else: you're responsible for exercising safely. If you injure yourself while doing a movement, you agree to absolve Wakeout and its team of any and all responsibility for injury of any kind. Wakeout breaks are not medical advice, treatment or rehab. If something hurts, stop, and if you have health concerns, talk to a doctor first.
If we change how the plugin works or what it receives, we'll update this section and its date. Continuing to use the plugin means you accept the updates.
