App Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 2026

At Astoria Lighting, we believe the only thing glowing in your home should be your lights, not your personal data. We value your trust and aim to be fully transparent about how this app works.

1. The Information We Collect (And Why)
We only collect information that is strictly necessary to provide a great experience.

Account Details:
When you create an account, we store your name and email address so you can sync your lighting presets across devices and recover your password if needed.

Device Connection:
To connect to your lights, the app identifies your device model and operating system version. This helps ensure the app runs smoothly on your specific phone.

App Usage:
We review basic, anonymous usage data, such as which features are used most, to improve the app. We don’t track individual users. Our goal is simply to make the app better for everyone.

2. Permissions We May Ask For
The app may request certain permissions to enable specific features. You always remain in control.

Location:
Used only to find and connect to local Wi-Fi controllers or to set Sunset and Sunrise timers based on your local time zone.

Camera / Photos:
Used only if you choose to upload a photo of your home to visualize lighting effects or scan a QR code for easier setup.

3. What We Don’t Do With Your Data

This is important. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We’re not in the business of selling data. We’re in the business of beautiful lighting. Your data stays with us and our essential service providers, such as the cloud services that keep your app synced.

4. Keeping Your Info Safe
We use industry-standard encryption (SSL) to protect your information. Think of it as a digital deadbolt for your account. We only retain your data for as long as your account remains active.

5. You’re in Control
It’s your data. At any time, you can:

  • View or update your information directly in the app settings.
  • Delete your account if you decide to stop using the service.
  • Withdraw permissions, such as Location or Camera, through your device’s system settings.

6. Updates
As we add new features, we may update this policy. If we make significant changes, we’ll notify you through the app.
