Hush is operated by Ardenholt LLC. For a product like this one, privacy is not a policy section — it is the architecture. This page describes what little we collect, and what we never receive at all.
Your sleep sounds and settings: we never have it
Everything you put into the Hush app — your saved mixes, timer and fade settings, and playback preferences — is stored only on your device, encrypted at rest, behind your device passcode and Face ID / Touch ID. There is no Hush account, no cloud sync, and no server that holds a copy. We cannot read, recover, export, or hand over your sleep sounds and settings, because it never touches infrastructure we operate. If you export or print your sleep sounds and settings, the copy goes where you choose, under your control.
What we do collect
- Email address — only if you join the waitlist on this website. Used to email you about Hush and nothing else. This is the only personal data our servers hold.
- Payment information — purchases are handled by the App Store (Apple) or Stripe. We never see or store your card number.
- Standard server logs for this website — IP address, user-agent, request paths, retained ≤30 days for security and debugging.
What we don't do
- No analytics SDKs, ad SDKs, or trackers inside the app.
- No selling, renting, or sharing of personal data. Ever.
- No reading of the bedtime calculator on this site — it runs entirely in your browser; the times you enter are never transmitted.
- Sound levels are yours to set — keep steady overnight sound at a comfortable, hearing-safe volume.
What happens if we shut down
Nothing, for your sleep sounds and settings. The app works offline and does not depend on our servers. Your data outlives us by design.
Your rights
Ask us to delete your waitlist email anytime at [email protected] and we will, promptly. For your sleep sounds and settings, deletion is in your hands — remove the app or wipe the sleep sounds and settings in Settings; there is no server copy for us to delete.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update this page and the effective date. We won't weaken the on-device promise — it is the product.
