Honey Sleep · Effective date: July 27, 2026 · Last updated: July 27, 2026

Privacy Policy

Honey does not sell your personal information, and does not use your sleep, health, microphone, or Screen Time data for advertising.

Honey Sleep ("Honey," "we," "our," or "us") provides sleep tracking, personalized sleep programs, sleep insights, bedtime routines, and optional Screen Time features through the Honey Sleep mobile application (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains what information Honey collects, how we use and disclose it, and the choices available to you.

1. Information We Collect

Account Information

When you use Sign in with Apple, we receive a unique account identifier. Depending on the choices you make when signing in, Apple may also provide your name and email address, including an Apple private relay email address.

We associate your Honey data with this account identifier so that we can authenticate your account, synchronize information, manage your subscription access, and process account deletion requests.

Sleep Profile and Onboarding Information

We collect information you provide while setting up and using Honey, which may include:

  • Your name

  • Current and preferred bedtime and wake time

  • Typical sleep duration

  • Sleep goals and preferred schedule

  • Satisfaction with your sleep

  • Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep

  • Nighttime awakenings

  • Factors or barriers affecting your sleep

  • How sleep affects your daily life

  • Sleep-related preferences

  • How you heard about Honey

  • Whether you choose to participate in a personalized sleep program

This information is used to personalize your experience, calculate recommendations, and create your sleep program.

Honey Sleep Session Data

When you use Honey to track a sleep session, we may collect and store:

  • Sleep session start and end times

  • Time in bed

  • Estimated sleep and wake times

  • Estimated sleep duration

  • Sleep latency

  • Estimated awakenings

  • Sleep scores and contributing factors

  • Derived sleep classifications and events

  • Information about your progress toward a sleep schedule

These measurements are estimates and are not intended to provide medical diagnoses.

Microphone and Ambient Audio Processing

If you grant microphone permission, Honey analyzes ambient sound during an active sleep session to help estimate sleep and wake periods.

Raw microphone audio is processed on your device. Honey does not record, transmit, or store raw audio recordings.

Honey may store derived sleep classifications, events, and session metrics produced by on-device processing. These derived results do not contain an audio recording or allow the original audio to be reconstructed.

You can revoke microphone access at any time in iOS Settings. Some sleep-detection functionality may be limited without microphone access.

Apple Health Data

If you connect Apple Health and grant permission, Honey may read sleep-analysis information from HealthKit, including:

  • Sleep and wake times

  • Time asleep and time in bed

  • Awake periods

  • Available sleep-stage information

  • The source of the sleep information

Honey uses this information to display sleep history, calculate insights, compare sleep patterns, and personalize recommendations.

Honey requests read-only access to supported sleep information and does not write sleep data to Apple Health. Apple Health information is processed within the App and is not used for advertising, marketing, data brokerage, or eligibility decisions.

You can revoke Honey's access to Apple Health at any time through the Health app or iOS Settings.

Bedtime Routine Information

If you use Honey's routine features, we may store:

  • The routine steps you select or create

  • Whether a step is assigned to the morning or evening

  • Completion or skipped status

  • The date associated with a routine response

  • Routine consistency and progress metrics

We use this information to show routine progress and identify patterns that may affect your sleep.

Personalized Sleep Program Information

If you participate in a personalized sleep program, we may store:

  • Whether the program is enabled

  • Program start and pause dates

  • Your original and recommended schedule

  • Program progress

  • Schedule adjustments and recalibrations

  • Streak or consistency information

This information is used to adjust recommendations and display your progress.

Screen Time Information

If you enable Honey's Screen Time features, Honey uses Apple's Screen Time APIs to apply restrictions to apps you select during configured periods.

The selection of apps and categories you choose to restrict is managed through Apple's Screen Time framework and stored on your device or within Apple-managed system storage. Honey does not receive or store a history of which apps you open, what you do inside other apps, or the content you view.

Honey does not use Screen Time access to track general phone usage.

Device Motion

During an active sleep session, Honey may process device-motion signals to help identify potential movement or device interaction.

These signals are processed on your device. Honey does not use motion access to determine your geographic location or create a general history of phone usage.

Battery Information

Honey may read your device's battery level and charging state to remind you to charge your phone before starting a sleep session.

Battery information is processed locally and is not stored in your Honey account.

Notifications

If you grant notification permission, Honey may send bedtime reminders, routine reminders, sleep-program updates, trial or subscription information, and other service-related notifications.

You can manage notification permissions at any time in iOS Settings.

  • Trial and promotional-offer status

5. On-Device and Cloud Storage

Some information remains on your device, including:

  • Raw microphone audio processing

  • Screen Time selections and restrictions

  • Certain preferences and cached app settings

Other information may be stored in secure cloud infrastructure and associated with your account, including:

  • Bedtime routines and completion logs

  • Personalized sleep-program information

We retain account information and cloud-stored Honey data while your account remains active or for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the App.

When you delete your account, we delete or de-identify information associated with your Honey account, subject to:

  • Temporary backup and recovery systems

  • Fraud-prevention and security requirements

  • Legal, tax, accounting, or regulatory obligations

  • Records maintained independently by Apple or another provider under its own legal obligations

Raw microphone audio is not retained by Honey.

Information stored locally may remain on your device until you delete the App, clear the applicable setting, or remove the relevant permission.

7. Your Choices and Rights

Permissions

You can manage microphone, motion, notification, Apple Health, and Screen Time permissions through Honey, the Health app, or iOS Settings.

Disabling a permission may limit the features that depend on it.

Account Information

You may request access to or correction of personal information associated with your account by contacting us.

Account and Data Deletion

You can delete your Honey account from the Profile section of the App.

Account deletion removes the Honey account and associated information stored in our cloud database, subject to limited legal, security, and backup retention described above.

Deleting your Honey account does not automatically cancel an App Store subscription. Apple manages subscription billing separately. You must cancel an active subscription through your Apple ID subscription settings if you do not want it to renew.

Subscription Management

You can manage or cancel your subscription through:

  • iOS Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions

You may also use Honey's restore-purchases feature to restore an eligible purchase associated with your Apple ID.

Privacy Requests

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

  • Request access to personal information

  • Request correction of inaccurate information

  • Request deletion of personal information

  • Obtain a portable copy of certain information

  • Object to or restrict certain processing

  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

To exercise a privacy right, contact us using the information below. We may need to verify your identity before completing the request.

8. Legal Bases for Processing

Where applicable law requires a legal basis, Honey processes personal information under one or more of the following bases:

  • Performance of a contract: to provide the App, manage your account, deliver premium features, and process subscription access.

  • Consent: when you authorize microphone, Apple Health, Screen Time, motion, or notification access.

  • Legitimate interests: to secure, maintain, troubleshoot, and improve Honey, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights.

  • Legal obligations: when processing is necessary to comply with applicable law.

  • Protection of rights: when necessary to prevent fraud, address security incidents, or protect Honey and its users.

You may withdraw permission-based consent through iOS Settings. Withdrawal does not affect processing that occurred before permission was withdrawn.

9. International Data Transfers

Honey and its service providers may process information in the United States or other countries where they operate.

Those countries may have privacy laws that differ from the laws where you live. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers of personal information.

Honey is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information to Honey, contact us so that we can investigate and delete the information where appropriate.
