Information stored on your device
HomeCrew stores family profile names, adult and child account PINs, profile preferences, chores, point balances, reward requests, activity history, notes and photos that you choose to attach. This information remains on the device unless a parent explicitly enables Browser access.
Optional Browser access
When a parent enables Browser access, HomeCrew stores family profile names and preferences, chores, point balances, reward requests, activity history, notes and selected photos on the HomeCrew service so authorized household devices can stay synchronized. This processing is necessary to provide the optional synchronization feature requested by the parent.
The service uses a pseudonymous family code and a separate access token for each connected device. It does not require an email address or Apple account. Adult account PINs are removed before synchronization. The separate four-digit Browser access PIN is protected with a salted one-way hash and is used only to authorize a new device.
Photos and camera
HomeCrew requests access to the camera or photo library only when you choose to take or select a profile picture or attach a photo to a chore. With Browser access enabled, a selected image is included in synchronized family data.
How information is used and shared
Information is used only to provide HomeCrew's family organization, approval, reward, history and synchronization features; maintain security; troubleshoot the service; and respond to support or privacy requests. HomeCrew does not sell personal information, use it for advertising, share it with data brokers or create public child profiles.
Technical infrastructure providers may process information on our behalf only to operate, secure, back up or support the service. They are not permitted to use it for their own advertising. Information may also be disclosed when required by law or to protect the security and rights of HomeCrew families.
Children's information
An adult creates and manages each child profile and controls whether Browser access is enabled. Parents or guardians should only add a child's information when they have authority to do so. HomeCrew has no public messaging, public profiles, advertising or leaderboards.
International processing
The HomeCrew service and its providers may process synchronized information in locations outside your country or region. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers.
Retention and deletion
Local information remains until a parent removes a profile, uses Erase family data or removes the app. A parent can disconnect one device without deleting the shared family space, or choose Turn off everywhere to delete the synchronized family space. Short-lived backup copies may remain until routine backup rotation completes.
You may contact us to request access, correction or deletion of information held by the HomeCrew service. We may need enough information to verify that the request comes from an authorized household adult.
Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to processing, obtain a portable copy, or complain to a data-protection authority. Contact us to exercise a right. You may also disable Browser access directly in Parent Settings.
Security
Production Browser access uses HTTPS, device-specific access tokens and rate-limited enrollment. Access codes, device tokens and PINs should be kept within the household. No system can guarantee absolute security.
Money and device time
HomeCrew records family-agreed rewards. It does not transfer money, access bank accounts, process payments or control Apple Screen Time.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when HomeCrew's features or legal obligations change. The effective date above will be updated, and material changes will be communicated through the app or website when appropriate.
