Wakefold

Privacy policy

Last updated: 13 November 2026

Wakefold is an alarm clock for Android from Anom, the app studio of Zest Plate LLC ("we", "us"). This policy explains what happens to your information when you use Wakefold.

No account, no personal data from you

• You don't need an account to use Wakefold, and we don't ask for your name, email address or any other personal details.
• Wakefold itself includes no analytics. Data that leaves your phone is limited to the ads described below.

Your alarms stay on your phone

• Your alarms, labels, chosen sounds, timer, stopwatch and settings are saved only in Wakefold's private storage on your phone (in Android's device-protected storage, so alarms can ring after a restart before you unlock).
• Wakefold does not include them in cloud backups or phone-to-phone transfers, and nothing about your alarms is sent to us.

Ads

Wakefold is free and shows ads from Google AdMob, Google's advertising service: a banner at the top of the main screens and an occasional full-screen ad after you save an alarm. There are never ads on the ringing alarm.

• To show ads, measure them and prevent fraud, the Google Mobile Ads SDK in Wakefold collects and sends to Google: your device's advertising ID and other device identifiers (such as the app set ID), your IP address (from which an approximate location can be worked out), information about the ads you see and tap, and technical and diagnostic information about your phone and the app (for example the model, Android version, crash reports and performance data).
• The ads never see your alarms, labels or sounds.
• Google may use this information to show personalised ads where the law allows it and you agree, and non-personalised ads otherwise. How Google uses information from apps that use its services: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
• We (Zest Plate LLC) don't receive personal data from the ads. We only see totals, such as how many ads were shown and what they earned.
• Ads in Wakefold are limited to content suitable for general audiences.

Your ad choices

• In the European Economic Area, the UK, Switzerland and US states with privacy laws, Wakefold asks for your choice with Google's consent form the first time you open it. You can change it at any time in Settings > Privacy choices.
• Anywhere, you can reset or delete your advertising ID, or turn off ad personalisation, in your phone's Settings > Google > Ads (on some phones, Settings > Privacy > Ads).

Permissions

• Notifications: the ringing alarm is a notification that opens the alarm screen. Wakefold asks for this once, when you save your first alarm.
• Alarms & reminders (exact alarms): so each alarm and the timer ring at the exact minute you set.
• Full-screen alarm: so a ringing alarm can fill the screen over the lock screen, like the phone's clock app.
• Start after restart and vibration: to set your alarms again after the phone restarts, and to vibrate when an alarm rings.
• When you pick a sound from your phone, Android's sound picker gives Wakefold access to that one sound only.
• Wakefold has no access to your photos, files, contacts, camera, microphone or exact location.
• Internet, network state and advertising ID: used by the ads.

Deleting your data

Uninstalling Wakefold deletes everything it stored, including your alarms.

Children

Wakefold is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
