Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 10th, 2025

Welcome to Ebb, a product of Extremely Bad Builders LLC (“we,” “our,” or “us”). Your privacy is important to us, and we are committed to being transparent about how we handle your data.

1. Data Collection

Local Data Storage

Ebb is local-first and designed with privacy in mind. Sensitive information remains local, such as:

  • App names
  • Window names
  • Mouse movements
  • Keyboard interactions

All of this data remains on your device locally and is never sent to our servers.

Cloud-Stored Data

To enhance your experience, we store the following data on our servers:

  • Aggregate Scores
  • Focus Presets
  • Friends List
  • Licenses/Subscription Details
  • Active Devices

Additionally, when you log into Ebb using your Google account, we collect and store your email associated with your Google account. This is used for authentication, product updates, and notification reports, which can be opted out of at any time.

This allows us to offer a seamless, cloud-powered experience while ensuring your sensitive data remains local.

Third-Party Integrations (Spotify & Apple Music)

Ebb allows you to connect your Spotify and Apple Music accounts to enhance your experience. These integrations are completely free and allow you to pull in your music data directly.

  • We do not store or track any Spotify or Apple Music data on our servers.
  • The connection is purely user-initiated and functions as a direct link between you and the music service.

Please see the Spotify privacy policy and Apple Music privacy policy for more information on how they handle your data.

This setup allows us to offer a seamless, cloud-powered experience while ensuring your sensitive data remains local.

2. Analytics & Data Sharing

We use PostHog to collect anonymized analytics to improve our product. This data helps us understand how Ebb is used without identifying individual users.

3. Data Control & Deletion

You have full control over your data. You can:

  • Delete cloud data and unlink your Ebb account from your Google account
  • Delete the data generated locally through the Ebb App

4. Open Source Commitment

Ebb's tracking engine is powered by an open-source project we maintain, CodeClimbers. We believe in transparency and continuous improvement in tracking technologies. Our open-source commitment allows us to push forward privacy-conscious innovations while giving the community full visibility into how Ebb operates.
