Sharing Your Information
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your Personal Information to third parties without your consent, except as described in this Privacy Policy:
Service Providers
We may share your information with third-party service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as:
- Cloud storage providers to host App data
- Analytics services to help us understand App usage
- Weather data providers to deliver location-based weather information
- Customer support services to respond to your inquiries
These service providers are contractually obligated to protect your information and use it only for the purposes for which we disclose it to them.
Legal Requirements
We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court or government agency). We may also disclose your information to protect our rights, privacy, safety, or property, or that of others.
Business Transfers
If the App or its assets are acquired by another company, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such change in ownership or control of your Personal Information.
Data Retention
We retain your Personal Information for as long as necessary to provide the App and its services, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When determining retention periods, we consider the type of information, the purpose for which we collected it, and any legal requirements.
Your Rights and Choices
You have certain rights regarding your Personal Information, including:
Access and Correction
You may request access to the Personal Information we hold about you and ask that we correct any inaccuracies. To make such a request, please contact us at the email address provided below.
Deletion
You may request that we delete your Personal Information. We will comply with such requests unless we have a legal obligation to retain the information or need it to provide you with the App's services.
Location Information
You can control whether the App has access to your location information through your device settings. Disabling location services will prevent the App from providing weather information but will not affect core alarm functionality.
Opting Out
You may opt out of certain data collection by adjusting your App settings or device permissions. Please note that some features may not function properly if you disable certain permissions.
Security of Your Information
We take reasonable measures to protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. These measures include:
- Encryption of data transmission and storage
- Access controls to limit who can view your information
- Regular security assessments and updates
- Compliance with industry-standard security practices
While we strive to protect your information, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we continuously work to improve our security measures.
Children's Privacy
The App is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Information from a child under 13 without parental consent, we will take steps to delete that information.

If we make material changes, we will notify you by updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy and, in some cases, by providing additional notice (such as through the App or via email).
