Sleep Tracker Provisions I Check First

Sleep trackers monitor your most private moments. From bedroom audio to health patterns, these provisions reveal how your sleep data is used and shared.

Bedroom Audio Recording

High Risk

Many sleep apps record audio to detect snoring, sleep talking, and breathing. These bedroom recordings may be stored, analyzed, and potentially accessed by third parties.

Look for: "We record audio during your sleep sessions to analyze snoring patterns and sleep sounds. Recordings may be processed by our servers or third-party services."

Health Insurance Data Sharing

High Risk

Sleep quality data indicating potential disorders may be shared with or sold to health insurance companies, potentially affecting your coverage or premiums.

Look for: "We may share health and wellness data with partners including insurance providers for research, wellness programs, or underwriting purposes."

Sleep Schedule Pattern Exposure

High Risk

Your wake times, bedtimes, and sleep patterns reveal when you're home, your work schedule, and lifestyle habits—valuable data for advertisers and employers.

Look for: "We collect data about your sleep and wake times, duration, and consistency to provide insights. This data may be shared with partners."

Smart Device Integration Sharing

High Risk

Connecting to smart mattresses, thermostats, or lights creates data flows to multiple companies. Your bedroom activity data spreads across device ecosystems.

Look for: "When you connect third-party devices, data is shared between our service and those platforms according to their respective privacy policies."

Biometric & Heart Rate Collection

High Risk

Sleep apps accessing wearables collect heart rate variability, blood oxygen, and movement patterns—biometric data that reveals health conditions.

Look for: "We access biometric data from connected devices including heart rate, HRV, SpO2, and movement to analyze sleep stages and quality."

Sleep Disorder Disclaimers

Medium Risk

Apps detect potential sleep apnea or disorders but disclaim medical accuracy. Despite alarming notifications, they're not liable for missed diagnoses.

Look for: "Sleep analysis is for informational purposes only. We do not diagnose sleep disorders. Not a substitute for medical evaluation."
