HomeOp

Privacy Policy

Effective date: May 28, 2026. Last updated: May 28, 2026.

HomeOp is your family vault. The information you keep here is personal, and we treat it that way. This policy explains what HomeOp collects, how it is used, and the choices you have.

1. Who we are

HomeOp ("HomeOp", "the app", "we", "us", or "our") is an iOS application developed and operated by Brandon Docusen ("the Developer"). If you have questions about this policy, you can reach us at b.docusen@me.com.

2. Information you provide

HomeOp is designed for you to store household information. Depending on how you use the app, this may include:

• Documents you add, such as bills, statements, receipts, recipes, schedules, warranties, medical and insurance records, and similar household paperwork.
• Photos or scans you capture or select to add to your vault.
• Details extracted from those documents, such as account names, amounts, due dates, contacts, and notes.
• Messages you type to the in-app assistant, including reminders and instructions you create.

You decide what to add. Please only add information you are comfortable storing, and avoid adding documents that belong to other people without their permission.

3. Information collected automatically

• Anonymous identifier. HomeOp creates a random identifier stored in your device Keychain and, when iCloud is enabled, synced across your devices via iCloud Key-Value Store. It is used to validate your subscription, keep your vault consistent across devices, and route requests on our proxy. It is not your name, email, or Apple ID, and it is not used to track you across other apps or websites.
• Purchase and subscription data. When you buy or restore a subscription, Apple and our subscription management provider process the transaction and entitlement information needed to deliver the feature you paid for.
• Basic technical information. Network requests to our services may include standard information such as device type and app version, used to operate and secure the service.

4. Where your data is stored

Your documents and the information extracted from them are stored locally on your device within the app's private storage. This data may be included in your device backups if you have enabled backups through your Apple account, in which case it is handled under Apple's terms and your device settings. Your vault is stored locally on your device and mirrored on our servers (Cloudflare KV for structured vault data and preferences, Cloudflare R2 for document files), keyed to your anonymous identifier. This mirroring lets your vault stay consistent across devices on the same Apple account. We do not use this storage for advertising or to build a marketing profile. Local data may also be included in device backups under Apple’s terms.

5. How the assistant and document organization work

HomeOp uses artificial intelligence to read, structure, and answer questions about your household information. To make this possible:

• When you upload a document, the document content and your current vault state are transmitted securely to a third-party artificial intelligence provider (xAI) through a secure proxy server operated on our behalf.
• When you send a message to the assistant, your message and your current vault state are transmitted the same way.
• This processing is used only to extract, organize, and respond to your information so the app can present it back to you.
• The proxy server also stores encrypted copies of your vault and documents for cross-device sync, and attaches your anonymous identifier to verify your subscription and keep your data separate from other users. It does not attach your name or contact details.

Your use of these features is also subject to the AI provider's applicable terms and privacy practices. We do not sell your information, and we do not use it to serve advertising.

6. Permissions you may be asked for

• Camera. So you can capture a document to add to your vault.
• Photo library. So you can choose a document or photo to add. HomeOp accesses only what you select.
• Calendar. If you turn on calendar sync, HomeOp reads and writes events on your device so your deadlines appear in Apple Calendar. Calendar contents are not sent to our servers.
• Notifications. So HomeOp can remind you about due dates and tasks. Reminders are scheduled on your device.

You can change or revoke any of these permissions at any time in the iOS Settings app.

7. Service providers

We rely on a small number of trusted providers to operate HomeOp:

• Apple for app distribution, in-app purchases, optional device backup, and syncing your anonymous identifier across devices via iCloud Key-Value Store.
• xAI for the artificial intelligence that reads and organizes your information.
• RevenueCat for managing and validating your subscription entitlements.
• Cloudflare for the secure proxy that routes assistant requests, stores encrypted vault and preference data for cross-device sync (KV), and stores document files for cross-device sync (R2).

These providers process information only as needed to perform their function and under their own terms.

8. How we use information

• To provide, maintain, and improve the app's core features.
• To organize your documents and answer your questions through the assistant.
• To manage subscriptions and verify access to paid features.
• To keep the service secure and to detect, prevent, and address technical issues or misuse.
• To comply with applicable law.

9. Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share it with third parties for their own marketing. We share information only with the service providers listed above, when required by law or valid legal process, or to protect the rights, safety, and property of users, the public, or the Developer.

10. Data retention and deletion

Your vault is stored on your device and mirrored on our servers so it can stay consistent across your devices. You remain in control of your local copy: you can delete individual items in the app, and you can remove all HomeOp data from a device by deleting the app. Changes you make in the app are synced to our servers when possible.

Deleting the app removes the local copy on that device but does not automatically remove server-stored copies. Unreferenced document files on our servers may be removed automatically after a grace period. To request deletion of all server-stored data associated with your anonymous identifier, contact us at b.docusen@me.com.

Information held by Apple or our subscription provider for billing and entitlement purposes is retained under their respective policies and applicable law.

11. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including encrypted connections for data in transit. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

12. Children's privacy

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

13. Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information, or to object to certain processing. Because your vault lives on your device, you can exercise most of these choices directly in the app and in iOS Settings. For requests involving information held by us or our providers, contact us at b.docusen@me.com and we will respond as required by applicable law.

14. International users

HomeOp is operated from the United States. If you use the app from another region, you understand that your information may be processed in the United States and in other countries where our service providers operate, which may have different data protection laws than your own.

15. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the date at the top of this page. Significant changes may be communicated through the app or other reasonable means. Your continued use of HomeOp after an update means you accept the revised policy.
