5. Third-Party Audio Content
Background music and audio content available through the Service is either (a) licensed for use under applicable music licensing agreements, (b) sourced from royalty-free audio libraries, or (c) AI-generated audio under applicable usage licenses.

6. Local Data Storage
DoPomoNow stores your task lists, timer settings, theme preferences, and session statistics locally in your browser using localStorage and IndexedDB. This data is stored on your device only and is not transmitted to or stored on our servers. You are responsible for managing and backing up your local data. Clearing your browser cache or storage will permanently delete any locally stored DoPomoNow data.

If you install DoPomoNow as a Progressive Web App on your device, the Service will function similarly to a native application. Push notifications (break reminders) require your explicit permission and can be revoked at any time through your device or browser settings. The PWA uses Service Workers for offline functionality. Uninstalling the PWA from your home screen will remove cached data.
