Privacy Policy

March 30th, 2026

NextLayer Technology respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website or use our mobile application, FocusDashboard.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information in two main ways: data you provide to us directly through our website, and data processed by the FocusDashboard app.

A. Data Processed by FocusDashboard (The App) FocusDashboard is designed to be a private, on-device experience.

  • Local Storage: Your custom profiles, widget toggles (Clock, Timer, Quotes), color preferences (HSV values), and scale settings are stored locally on your device. We do not collect or transmit this data to our servers.

  • Spotify Integration: To use the Spotify controls within the app, FocusDashboard requests permission to communicate with the Spotify API. We do not view, collect, or store your Spotify login credentials. Authentication is handled securely through Spotify's standard protocols.

  • In-App Purchases: When you unlock premium styles (such as the Pill or Bold clock layouts), the transaction is processed securely through the respective app store provider (e.g., Google Play Billing or Apple App Store). We do not collect or have access to your payment details. We only receive a verification token to unlock the feature on your device.

B. Data Collected on Our Website When you visit the NLT website, use our contact forms, or purchase through our Shop, we may collect:

  • Personal Identification Information: Name, email address, shipping address, and phone number when you make a purchase or fill out a contact form.

  • Payment Information: Processed securely via our payment gateways (e.g., Stripe, PayPal, or Squarespace Payments). We do not store full credit card numbers on our servers.

  • Usage Data: We use standard analytics tools (provided by our host, Squarespace) to understand how visitors navigate our site, which helps us improve our services.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect strictly to provide and improve our services:

  • To process and fulfill orders placed through our website Shop.

  • To respond to your customer support requests or inquiries submitted via our Contact page.

  • To send you important updates regarding FocusDashboard, if you have opted in to our newsletter.

  • To verify premium feature unlocks within the app.

3. Third-Party Services

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to others. We may use third-party service providers to help us operate our business, such as:

  • Squarespace: For website hosting and analytics.

  • Spotify: For in-app music widget functionality (subject to Spotify's Privacy Policy).

  • App Stores: For processing in-app purchases and managing premium feature unlocks.

  • Payment Processors: For securely handling website shop transactions.

4. Data Retention and Security

We retain personal information collected via our website only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy (such as completing a shop order or answering a support ticket). We implement reasonable security measures to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure of your data.

Because FocusDashboard stores its customization data locally on your device, you are entirely in control of that data. Deleting the app or clearing the app's cache will permanently remove your saved scenes and profiles.

5. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, update, or request the deletion of your personal information. If you have created an account on our website, or if you wish to have your contact/order history removed, please contact us using the information below.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our app features or legal requirements. We will notify users of any significant changes by updating the "Effective Date" at the top of this page.
