Rilune is operated by an individual developer. For support and privacy requests, contact support@rilunesleep.com

## Information on your device

Rilune offers offline sounds, user-imported RSS podcasts, timed fades and retrospective sleep review. No Rilune account is needed. The current app has no developer-operated data-receiving server, advertising SDK or behavioral analytics SDK.

The app stores language, volume and stop preferences, onboarding state, favorites and recent sounds, RSS addresses and show/episode metadata, podcast positions, playback times and stop reasons, stop feedback, and the morning feelings you select for each date.

Private JSON files for playback, favorites, RSS, progress and morning feelings are excluded from backup and use iOS file protection that permits access after the first unlock. App preferences store language and the sleep-reading preference under iOS management. There is no Rilune cloud sync or automatic upload of these records.

Playback history is not capped at 12 records. Recent sounds are limited to 15 items, podcast positions to 1,000, and the RSS library to 40 shows with a 20 MiB file limit. Other records have no automatic day-based expiry.

## Apple Health sleep review

The app requests read-only access to existing sleepAnalysis records only after you choose Connect Apple Health. This flow requests neither heart rate nor Health write access. There are no background Health subscriptions. Subsequent reads occur in the foreground while Review is visible.

Sleep samples, periods, stages, sources and summaries stay in memory for 7-night/30-night trends and date details. Queries are canceled and this information is cleared when you leave Review or the app enters the background. Morning feelings store only your selected value, not HealthKit samples or stages.

Health information and derived summaries are not sent to the developer, RSS services or advertisers, and are not used for advertising, profiling or data trading. A reading preference or completed authorization does not prove records are readable.

Stop reading in the Review notes and revoke permission in iOS Health settings. Revoking access or deleting Rilune does not remove records stored by other sources in Health. Real-time sleep detection and medical diagnosis are unavailable.

## Apple Watch motion observation

After you start an observation on Apple Watch, wrist motion is processed in Watch memory to evaluate sustained stillness. No heart rate or Health writes are used; raw motion samples are neither uploaded nor persisted.

Only session permission, quiet duration and control state are exchanged between your paired Watch and iPhone through WatchConnectivity for fading, restoring and stopping. The shipping app does not save motion diagnostic logs. Pausing or ending playback revokes the observation.

## RSS and third-party requests

Importing, refreshing and playback connect directly to your chosen RSS host and checked media/redirect hosts. They may receive your IP address, requested path and query, request time, app-version User-Agent and media byte range. Requests may reveal your chosen show or segment.

RSS uses ephemeral sessions with its own cookies, credential storage and URL cache disabled. Requests do not include health data, review records or advertising identifiers. Public hosts require HTTPS; explicitly selected local-device/network addresses may use corresponding local connections. Rilune does not scan your network. Local HTTP does not provide TLS encryption.

Hosts may keep access logs, use CDNs or include advertisements in their content under their own policies. Rilune does not manage or delete their logs. Do not enter credentials, private subscription tokens or paid-access URLs.

## This website and support email

This static website has no ads, behavioral analytics, accounts, forms, cookies or local-storage tracking scripts. It does not access or receive Health data. To deliver and protect pages, the hosting service may process IP addresses, browser information, request times and error records.

When you email support, the developer receives the email address, message and attachments you choose to send to respond to feedback or privacy requests. Share only what is needed. Do not send health samples, private subscription tokens or full diagnostic logs. Use the same support address to request deletion of support information you supplied.

## Managing information and updates

Remove favorites or delete a podcast from its detail page. There is no one-tap reset of all history or morning feelings. Deleting the app and its data clears the sandbox; offloading while retaining data does not. Deleted unbacked-up information may be unrecoverable. Manage Health records and exported files separately.

Apple Music is disabled. Release excludes example review, POC, heart-rate research and diagnostic export entries. Earlier development installations may retain local logs; the current version does not read or automatically upload them.

This page will be updated when features or information handling change. Contact the individual developer through the address below for support or privacy requests.
