Calm Button
You’re here.
Stay with this moment.
Press once. We’ll slow your breathing, reconnect you to your surroundings, and take this one small step at a time.
Step 1 · Breathe
Let your breath lead.
No need to force it. Follow the circle as gently as you can.
3 gentle rounds
Step 2 · Ground
Come back to your senses.
Look around slowly. Tap a circle for each thing you notice.
things you can see
Notice colors, shapes, light, or any small detail nearby.
Tap each circle as you notice something
Step 3 · Reassure
Borrow a calmer thought.
Read this slowly. You don’t have to fully believe it yet.
This feeling is intense, but it will pass.
You did it
You stayed with yourself.
Take your next minute slowly. Sip water, loosen your shoulders, or sit somewhere that feels steadier.

Saved — only on this device.
Private: this note is saved only on this device. It is never tracked, sent, or shared.
Privacy, held gently.
This policy explains, in plain language, how Calm Button respects your privacy under Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).
Last updated: October 2026What we collect
Almost nothing. Breathing session counts stay on your device only. We do not send them to a server.
If you choose to save a trusted contact, a short note to yourself, or a one-line session note, those stay on your device only too — they are never sent to us or anyone else.
We do not track your panic episodes, grounding activity, or mental-health information on any server.
Why we use information
Any information used on your device is used only to make the app work and support your calming experience.
Your consent
By using Calm Button, you agree to this privacy policy. You can withdraw your consent at any time by clearing the app’s data and choosing not to use the app.
Data sharing
We never sell your data. Your wellness is private. Nothing about your calming sessions leaves your device, and we do not share it with advertisers or other companies.
Your rights
You can clear the app’s data at any time through your device settings. Because we do not keep your wellness data on a server, we do not have a remote copy to access, correct, or delete.
Children and crisis support
Calm Button is not directed at children under 13.
If you are in crisis, please contact a trusted person or your local crisis line. This app is supportive, but it is not a substitute for professional help or emergency care.
Security
We use reasonable safeguards appropriate for an app that keeps session information on your device. No method is completely risk-free, so keeping your device and operating system updated also helps protect you.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the updated version will be shown in the app with a new “Last updated” date so you can review it.
Contact
For a privacy question or concern, email the person responsible for privacy at privacy@example.com.
You deserve care without surveillance. Your private moments stay yours.
Trusted contact & notes.
Save one person you trust. After a calming session, a calm button will offer to call them — only when you tap it. Everything here stays on this device.
Your trusted contact
They are never contacted automatically. The call button appears on the “You did it” screen, and nothing happens unless you tap it.
Saved — only on this device.
Voice guidance
Some people find a voice easier to follow than words on a screen. Turn this on and Calm Button will gently read the breathing, grounding, and reassurance steps aloud, at a slow, calm pace.
Off unless you turn it on. Your device’s own voice does the speaking — nothing is recorded and nothing is sent anywhere.
A note from calm you
Write a few words to yourself now, while you feel steady — whatever Future You might need to hear. After a calming session, your note will be waiting on the “You did it” screen, in your own words.
Saved — only on this device.
Private: this note lives only on this device. It is never tracked, sent, or shared.
Your session notes
One line you chose to save after a session, newest first. Looking back can help you notice what tends to set a hard moment off.
Private: these notes live only on this device. They are never tracked, sent, or shared — and you can delete any of them at any time.
No notes yet. After your next session, you can add one line about what was happening.
