Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 5, 2026

HomeGeek ("HomeGeek", "we", "us", or "our") operates this application and related services. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, access, use, store, disclose, retain, and delete information when you use our services, including when you authorize our application to access information from your Google Account through Google OAuth.

1. Information We Access

When you connect a Google Account, HomeGeek may access the categories of Google user data covered by the permissions you explicitly authorize on Google's OAuth consent screen. Depending on the features enabled for your account, this may include:

• Basic Google Account information such as your name, email address, profile information, and account identifier, when requested by the configured Google scopes.
• Google service data made available through the specific Google API scopes requested by the application, such as files, spreadsheets, documents, calendar information, email information, or other service data, only when the application requests the corresponding permission and you grant it.
• OAuth authorization information, such as access/refresh tokens, as necessary to maintain an authorized connection to Google services.

Important: HomeGeek requests only the Google OAuth scopes required for the application's implemented functionality. The exact permissions shown to you are controlled by the Google OAuth consent screen.

2. How We Use Google User Data

We use Google user data only for the functionality you authorize. Examples include connecting your Google account, reading or writing information required by an enabled feature, synchronizing information, and providing automation or workflow functionality requested by you.

We do not use Google user data for:

• selling data to third parties or data brokers;
• targeted, personalized, or retargeted advertising;
• creditworthiness, lending, or similar eligibility decisions;
• creating databases of Google user data for unrelated purposes; or
• training, improving, or developing generalized/non-personalized artificial intelligence or machine-learning models.

3. Data Sharing and Transfers

We do not sell or rent your personal information or Google user data.

We may disclose information only when necessary to operate, secure, maintain, or provide a feature you requested, or when required by law. Service providers that process data on our behalf may receive only the information necessary to provide the applicable service and are expected to protect it.

We do not transfer Google user data to third parties for advertising, data brokerage, or unrelated purposes.

4. Data Storage and Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Where appropriate, data in transit is protected using HTTPS/TLS encryption. OAuth credentials and tokens are not intentionally exposed publicly.

No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You are responsible for protecting your own Google Account credentials and for reviewing the permissions shown during OAuth authorization.

5. Data Retention and Deletion

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the requested functionality, maintain security, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

When Google authorization is revoked or you disconnect your Google Account, HomeGeek will stop using the revoked authorization. Where applicable, stored Google user data and authorization credentials will be deleted or made inaccessible within a reasonable operational period, except where retention is required by law or legitimate security obligations.

You may request deletion of information associated with your use of HomeGeek by contacting us using the contact method listed below. Your request should identify the account or information to be deleted without sending passwords, OAuth client secrets, or other credentials.

6. Google Account Permissions

You can review or revoke HomeGeek's access to your Google Account through your Google Account's third-party connections/security settings. Revoking access may cause features that depend on Google APIs to stop working.

7. Children's Privacy

HomeGeek is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can take appropriate action.

8. International Processing

Depending on the infrastructure and service providers used by HomeGeek, information may be processed in countries other than the country where you live. We take reasonable steps to protect information during such processing.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when our services, legal obligations, or data practices change. The updated version will be posted at this URL with a revised effective date.

10. Contact
