Circuit Focus privacy policy

Applies to the Circuit Focus Chrome extension. Last updated 14 November 2026.

Short version: your timer, your block list and your stats stay in your own browser. We don't track the sites you visit and we don't sell anything about you.

What stays on your computer

Your timer settings (focus and break length) and the current session.
The list of sites you chose to block.
Your focus minutes per day, used for the 7-day chart and your streak.
Where you last dragged the floating timer, and whether it's minimized.
If you turn on the PIN lock: a scrambled (hashed) form of your PIN, never the PIN itself.

These are saved with Chrome's own extension storage on your device. They are never sent to us.

Why it asks to run on websites

Circuit Focus needs access to websites for two things: to send the sites on your block list to a "Not right now" page while a focus session runs, and to show the floating timer on the page you're looking at. It doesn't read, save or send the content of any page, or your browsing history.

Payments (Pro)

Pro is a one-time $2.99 upgrade, handled by ExtensionPay, with card payments processed by Stripe. If you buy Pro, you enter your email and card details on their pages, not ours. ExtensionPay tells the extension whether you've paid so Pro can unlock. We can see that a payment happened and the email it came from; we never see your card number. Their own privacy policies apply to what they handle.

What we never do

No analytics, ads or tracking scripts in the extension.
No selling or sharing of your data.
No reading of your pages, passwords or form data.

Deleting your data

Removing the extension from Chrome deletes everything it stored on your computer.
