Effective July 3, 2026
Nothing. HomeInventory has no accounts, no analytics, no ads, no tracking, and no third-party SDKs. The app makes no network requests. We never see your data — we couldn't even if we wanted to.
Everything you enter — item names, rooms, replacement values, brands, models, serial numbers, notes — is stored locally on your device using Apple's on-device database. Photos and receipts you attach are copied into that same local database. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.
When you attach a photo, the app uses Apple's system photo picker. That means the app never gets access to your photo library — it only receives the specific photos you pick, and iOS never even shows the app a permission dialog because none is needed.
The insurance report is generated entirely on your device. When you share it — to email, Files, AirDrop, your insurance agent — you decide where it goes. The app hands the file to you and keeps no copy anywhere else.
When you export your inventory to a CSV file, you decide where that file goes. The app writes the file and hands it to you; we have no copy. Importing a CSV reads the file you choose and stores its contents on your device, same as items you enter by hand.
Your data is deleted with it. If you want to keep a copy, export a CSV and save your insurance report PDF first — those files are yours forever.
HomeInventory does not collect personal information from anyone, including children.
If a future version of HomeInventory ever changes how data is handled, this policy will be updated before that version ships, and the app will ask for your explicit consent before any network feature is enabled.
