Your privacy is critically important to us. At Smart House, we have a few fundamental principles:
    We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. (We can’t stand services that ask you for    things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.)
    We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
    We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the ongoing operation of one of our services.
    If you have questions about deleting or correcting your personal data please contact our support team.

Website Visitors
    Like most website operators, Smart House collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Smart House uses the Google Analytics service for this. Home Assistant’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Home Assistant’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Smart House may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
    Smart House discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Smart House’s behalf or to provide services available at Smart House’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Smart House’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Smart House will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Smart House discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Smart House believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Smart House, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Smart House website and have supplied your email address, Smart House may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Smart House and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Smart House takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Companion Applications
    All information collected by the applications is sent directly to your hosted instance of Smart House. This includes, but is not limited to, sensor data and location data, which at times is sent while the application is in the background. At no point is this data logged or given to a 3rd party.
