We are established in Denmark and process personal data under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Danish Data Protection Act.
| Where | What |
|---|---|
| Your iPhone | Sign in with Apple session; house-connection credentials in the iPhone Keychain; camera used only to scan a pairing QR code |
| Each residence’s Home Assistant | Live home state stays on that house. We do not continuously stream or store that live state in our cloud as telemetry |
| Our backend | Invitations and access grants, account/session data, Apple Push Notification device tokens, and push delivery (quiet house nudges) |
| Weather (Open-Meteo) | For homes connected to Home Assistant, the app shows local weather by sending the home's approximate location (rounded to about 1 km) from your phone to Open-Meteo (open-meteo.com). No name, account or other identifier is sent. You can turn this off in Settings. |
We do not sell personal data.
Depending on how you use the app, we may process:
We do not require a separate password for Sign in with Apple beyond what Apple provides.
| Purpose | Legal basis |
|---|---|
| Create and manage your invitation-only account; authenticate you (Sign in with Apple) | Performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)) |
| Maintain invitations, grants, and session so the app works as offered | Performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)) |
| Deliver push notifications you have enabled (quiet house nudges) | Performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)); where required, your consent for notifications at the system level |
| Store house-connection credentials in Keychain and use the camera for QR pairing | Performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)); camera access is controlled by iOS permission |
| Respond to support requests | Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)) — helping you use the service — or contract where the request relates to your account |
| Security, abuse prevention, and legal compliance | Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)) and/or legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)) |
Where we rely on legitimate interests, you may object as described in section 8.
We share personal data only as needed to run the service:
We do not sell data to data brokers or advertisers.
If a processor is outside the EEA, we use an appropriate transfer mechanism (for example Standard Contractual Clauses) or rely on a valid adequacy framework where applicable. Apple services may involve processing in the United States.
Live home state stays on each residence’s Home Assistant and is not wiped by deleting your Patrimony account.
If you create an account with Sign in with Apple, you can delete it in the app: Settings → Delete Account. That removes your Patrimony account and associated server data (session, entitlements, device tokens). Live house data stays on your Home Assistant. Email support@patrimonycollection.com (subject “Privacy”) remains a backup, not the only path.
Subject to GDPR conditions, you may also: access; rectify; erase; restrict; portability (where applicable); object to legitimate-interests processing; withdraw consent where processing is consent-based. For rights other than in-app account deletion, email the address above.
Complaint: Danish Data Protection Agency (Datatilsynet), https://www.datatilsynet.dk.
Intended for adult principals and authorised household users. We do not knowingly offer the service to children under 16 (or a lower age where local law sets a different digital-consent age).
Appropriate technical and organisational measures for the backend (access control, encrypted transport in transit, least-privilege). House-connection credentials in iPhone Keychain. Protect the device with a passcode or biometrics.
| Permission | Why |
|---|---|
| Sign in with Apple | Account creation and sign-in |
| Notifications | Quiet house nudges via APNs (optional; controlled in iOS Settings) |
| Camera | Scan pairing QR code only |
