Stage Screen privacy policy

Last updated 11 October 2026.

Stage Screen is a countdown timer for iPhone and iPad that shows the timer on an external display. It is made by Bence Nagy.

What the app collects

The app has no accounts and asks for nothing about you. It does send anonymous usage data to PostHog, an analytics service, so I can see whether the app is used and whether the external display feature works for people:

• Usage events, such as the app being opened, a timer being started, which screens are viewed, and whether a display was connected (and whether it was a mirrored external screen or an app window). Timer durations are included; the text of messages you type is not.
• A random device identifier generated by the analytics library, plus basic device information: device model, iOS version, app version, and the country derived from your IP address when the data is sent.

This data is not linked to your name, email or any account. It is not used for advertising, not shared with anyone for advertising, and not used to track you across other apps or websites.

Where it goes

Usage data is sent to PostHog (PostHog Inc.), which stores it on my behalf. PostHog's own privacy policy is at posthog.com/privacy.

What the app does not collect

No location, contacts, photos, microphone or camera access. No crash reports beyond what Apple shares with developers under your own iOS settings. Timer settings and messages stay on your device.

Your choices

If you would rather not send usage data, the only option today is not to use the app; there is no in-app switch yet. If you want data associated with your device deleted, write to me and I will do it.
