The Final Countdown · Last updated: 20 September 2026
The Final Countdown (“the App”) is an offline-first countdown timer for holidays and custom events on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. It is provided by Christian Pitt Roche / PittRoche (“we”, “us”).
Summary
- We do not require an account.
- Countdown data stays on your device.
- We do not run ads, analytics SDKs, or tracking that needs a backend.
- Optional sharing uses a link you choose to send; we do not operate a share server.
Data we store on your device
The App stores your countdowns (names, dates, themes, and related settings) locally on your device using on-device storage (for example Apple Preferences / App Group storage on iOS, or the browser’s local storage on the web).
Widgets and the Apple Watch companion read that same on-device data so they can show your countdowns. That data does not leave your device through our servers, because we do not operate app servers for this product.
Sharing
If you use Share, the App encodes countdown details into a link. Anyone who opens that link can import the countdown. Only share links with people you trust. We do not host or log those links.
Data we do not collect
We do not collect:
- Name, email, or account credentials (there is no login)
- Precise location for our own use
- Advertising identifiers for ads or cross-app tracking
- Analytics events sent to our backend (there is no analytics backend for this app)
Apple or Google may collect standard store diagnostics according to your device and account settings; that is outside this App’s control.
Children
The App does not target children and does not knowingly collect personal information from children. Content is suitable for a general audience (App Store age rating 4+).
Third parties
The App does not embed third-party advertising or analytics SDKs that report usage to us.
Changes
We may update this policy when the App changes. The “Last updated” date above will change when we do. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised policy.
