1. Overview
HomeUpkeep (the “App”) helps homeowners organize maintenance tasks, schedule reminders, track equipment, and store home-related information. We respect your privacy and believe your information should remain under your control.
2. Information you provide
You may choose to enter or attach:
- Maintenance tasks, schedules, and completion history
- Equipment names, brands, models, serial numbers, and installation dates
- Warranty details, photos, receipts, manuals, and other documents
- App preferences and reminder settings
This information is used to provide the App's features.
3. Data storage and iCloud syncing
HomeUpkeep stores your information locally on your device. If iCloud syncing is enabled, supported data may also be stored in your personal iCloud account and synchronized across compatible Apple devices.
Apple manages iCloud storage and synchronization under its own privacy practices. We do not operate a separate cloud server for your home maintenance records.
4. Notifications
HomeUpkeep may ask permission to send reminders about upcoming or overdue maintenance tasks. These notifications are based on schedules you create. You can manage notification permissions in your device settings.
5. Photos and documents
When you choose to attach photos or documents, the App may request access to your camera, photo library, or files. These permissions are used for features you initiate. Attached content is stored with your app data and may sync through iCloud if supported and enabled.
6. Subscriptions and payments
HomeUpkeep may offer optional monthly and annual subscriptions. Purchases and subscription management are handled through Apple's App Store. We do not directly collect or store credit card information. Apple processes payment and transaction information according to its privacy policy.
7. Analytics and tracking
HomeUpkeep does not use your maintenance records, equipment details, photos, or documents for advertising. We do not sell personal information to advertisers or data brokers, and the App does not use third-party advertising trackers.
Apple may provide developers with aggregated app performance, crash, and subscription information, depending on your device and App Store privacy settings.
9. Data retention and deletion
Your maintenance information remains available until you delete it or remove the relevant stored data. Where supported, you can delete individual tasks, equipment records, and associated information within the App.
Deleting the App removes its local data from that device. Data synchronized through iCloud may remain in your iCloud account until separately deleted.
10. Security
We rely on Apple's platform security features to help protect data stored on your device and in iCloud. No electronic storage or transmission method can be guaranteed completely secure.
11. Children's privacy
HomeUpkeep is intended for general home maintenance management and is not specifically directed toward children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children for advertising or marketing.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as features or privacy practices change. Updates will be published on this page with a revised effective date.
