What Siesta processes
Siesta estimates sleep onset on the watch from heart-rate trends. The signal is processed on the watch in memory and is not sent to Siesta. The app does not collect movement data or identify sleep stages; very still daydreaming or meditation may resemble sleep and start the countdown early. A small session record (duration and timestamps) is stored locally so an in-progress nap can recover if the app restarts; it is cleared when the session ends. The app has no account, advertising, analytics, or Siesta backend.
The iPhone companion stores your preferred duration on your device and in the Apple App Group shared with your watch app. The setting is used only to preselect your next nap duration and remains until you change it or remove the app.
Apple processes App Store purchase and download information under its own privacy terms. Siesta does not operate a payment service or a user account system.
Website requests
Siesta does not intentionally set tracking cookies or run analytics on this website. The hosting provider may process connection data, such as an IP address and request metadata, to deliver and protect the site. Before publication, identify the provider, the data it receives, its retention period, any transfers, and the applicable legal basis here: [HOSTING PROVIDER, PROCESSING DETAILS, RETENTION, TRANSFERS, AND LEGAL BASIS].
Health permissions
HealthKit access is requested on the watch when you start a siesta. Heart-rate information is used only to estimate when the nap timer should begin. Siesta does not write health data, identify daydreaming or sleep stages, make medical decisions, or diagnose or treat a condition. You can change Health permissions in Apple Health settings.
Your rights and contact
Depending on your location and the circumstances, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict, object to, or receive a copy of personal data, to withdraw consent where processing relies on consent, and to complain to your supervisory authority. Contact [PRIVACY CONTACT EMAIL] or [POSTAL ADDRESS] to make a request. Identify the relevant supervisory authority for [COUNTRY] before publication.
Siesta does not profile users or make decisions about them solely by automated means.
Siesta has no account system or central store of nap or health data to search. Device data can be removed by ending the session or deleting the app. Website-host records are controlled by the hosting provider and are subject to the provider details and retention information above.
Changes
If the app or website begins collecting data, using analytics, or adding a service provider, this notice must be updated before that change takes effect.
