HIIT & Tabata Timer

Privacy policy.Plain and short.

Last updated 22 September 2026 · com.lapmark.timer

In short

  • No account, no sign-up. We never ask for your name or email.
  • What you record in HIIT & Tabata Timer stays on your phone. We never receive it.
  • The app is free and shows ads from Google AdMob. To do that, Google collects device data such as your advertising ID and IP address. In the EEA, UK and Switzerland you are asked for consent first.

Permissions and why they're needed

Notifications
Shows the running timer, with its controls, while the app is in the background.
Foreground service & wake lock
Keeps the timer accurate when the screen is off.
Vibration
Haptic cues at each phase change.
Internet & network state
To load and show ads. The app's own features don't need a connection.
Advertising ID
Used by Google AdMob to measure ads and, if you allow it, to personalise them. You can reset or delete it in Android settings.

You can revoke camera, microphone, location and notification access in Android settings. Only the features that need it stop working.

What is stored on your device

  • Your workouts
  • Workout history (sessions and active time)

This data lives in the app's own storage on your phone. We have no copy of it and no way to access it. Clearing the app's data or uninstalling it deletes it.

Your recordings and data

Your workouts and history are never uploaded. When you share a workout, the app builds a link that contains it and hands the link to the app you pick, such as a messenger. Workout links you paste in are read on the device.

Advertising

HIIT & Tabata Timer shows ads served by Google AdMob, operated by Google. When an ad loads, the Google Mobile Ads SDK in the app collects and sends to Google:

  • Your device's advertising ID
  • Your IP address, from which an approximate location can be derived
  • Device and app information, such as model, operating system, language and app version
  • How you interact with ads, such as views and taps, and diagnostic data about ad performance

Google uses this to show ads, limit how often you see them, measure them, prevent fraud and, only where you allow it, personalise them. Google processes this data under its own privacy policy: how Google uses information from apps that use its services.

Nothing you record in the app is passed to the ad network: no runs, workouts, videos, audio or precise location.

We (Lapmark) do not receive personal data from AdMob. We only see aggregate reports, such as how many ads were shown and in which countries.

Your choices

  • Consent. In the EEA, UK and Switzerland, the app asks for consent before any personalised ads are shown. You can change your choice at any time from the privacy option in the app's settings.
  • Advertising ID. On Android you can reset or delete your advertising ID under Settings → Privacy → Ads. With the ID deleted, ads are no longer personalised.
  • Your recordings. Clear the app's data or uninstall it to delete everything stored on the device.

Children

The app is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them.

Changes

If a future version changes any of this, this page will be updated before that version is released, and the date above will change.
