SleepWay
Data Deletion Instructions
Last Updated: July 16, 2026
These instructions explain how to delete local SleepWay data and how to request deletion of information that may be under our control.
1. Overview
SleepWay does not require or create a user account. Most user-facing information is stored locally on your Android device, including sleep entries, sleep goals, optional notes, settings, meditation and breathing progress, notification preferences, and local App state.
2. Delete an Individual Sleep Entry
To remove one sleep entry while keeping the rest of your data, open the Statistics screen in SleepWay, select the relevant entry, and use the delete control. The selected entry and its locally stored details are removed from the App's current local data.
3. Delete All Local App Data
To delete the current local copy of all SleepWay data from your device, you can:
- uninstall SleepWay; or
- open Android Settings > Apps > SleepWay > Storage > Clear storage / Clear data.
This removes local data such as:
- sleep entries, goals, sleep quality, mood, and optional notes;
- meditation and breathing progress, streaks, and goals;
- App settings, onboarding state, and local preferences;
- local notification, advertising, rating, and entitlement state;
- locally stored Firebase Cloud Messaging registration information; and
- temporary caches and other local App state.
Android or Google backup may retain or later restore some preferences depending on your device and Google account backup settings. You can manage device backup through Android and Google account settings.
4. Microphone Data
During optional sleep tracking, microphone samples are processed on your device only while needed for active analysis. SleepWay does not save them as raw audio files and does not upload the raw audio. Temporary samples and analysis signals are discarded when they are no longer needed, so there is no retained SleepWay audio recording to delete.
You can also revoke microphone permission at any time through Android Settings > Apps > SleepWay > Permissions.
5. Request Deletion of Data Under Our Control
To request deletion of information that may be under our control, email areyanainc@gmail.com.
Subject: Data Deletion Request - SleepWay
State that you want information associated with your use of SleepWay deleted. Because SleepWay has no user accounts, we may need reasonable information to locate a prior direct support or privacy message, such as the same email address and approximate contact date. Do not send passwords, identity documents, microphone recordings, sleep notes, or other unnecessary sensitive information.
6. What We Can Delete
Where applicable and technically possible, we will delete or anonymise information under our control, such as:
- direct support or privacy emails associated with your request; and
- other records directly maintained by us, if any, that can reasonably be linked to your request.
Most SleepWay content exists only on your device and is not available to us, so it must be deleted locally using the steps above.
7. Data Not Directly Controlled by Us
Some technical, analytics, advertising, diagnostic, notification, consent, and purchase data is controlled by third-party providers and must be managed through their own privacy tools and policies. This may include Google, Firebase, AdMob, Google Play services, and Google Play Billing.
Some records may be aggregated, anonymised, or tied to an app, installation, device, or advertising identifier rather than to a SleepWay account. If a specific record cannot be reasonably identified, we may not be able to delete it individually. You can use Android and Google privacy controls and reset or delete the advertising identifier where available.
8. Purchases and Subscriptions
Clearing SleepWay data or uninstalling the App does not delete Google Play transaction records, cancel an active subscription, or create a refund. Manage purchases and subscriptions through Google Play. A qualifying entitlement may be restored when you use the same Google account after reinstalling SleepWay.
9. Deletion Timeframe
We aim to process valid deletion requests for information under our control within 30 days, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law. We may retain limited information where required by law or reasonably necessary to protect security, prevent fraud, resolve disputes, or enforce rights.
