1. Our Privacy Approach
Handiers is designed with a privacy-conscious architecture.
The App primarily stores user-generated data locally on your device. However, certain features may involve limited data collection and transmission as described below.
We are committed to:
-
Collecting only what is necessary
-
Being transparent about data practices
-
Allowing users control over their data
2. Information You Enter into the App
The App allows you to store:
-
Home and property details
-
Repair logs and maintenance records
-
Professional contact information
-
Photos
-
Notes and preferences
This information is stored locally on your device.
We do not access or retrieve this data from your device unless you explicitly choose to share it (e.g., via export).
3. Information We May collect Automatically
Depending on the version of the App and enabled features, we may collect limited technical information, including:
-
Device type and operating system
-
App version and build number
-
Anonymous device identifiers
-
Crash logs and diagnostic reports
-
App usage events (such as feature usage frequency)
-
Advertising identifiers (if advertising is enabled)
This information may be collected through third-party service providers.
4. Analytics and Cash Reporting
We may use analytics and crash reporting tools to:
-
Understand how the App is used
-
Improve performance and stability
-
Diagnose technical issues
-
Prioritize feature development
Analytics data:
-
Is generally aggregated and anonymized
-
Does not include your repair logs, addresses, or photos
-
Does not include personal identifiers entered into the App
Crash reports may include:
-
Device model
-
OS version
-
App state at time of crash
We do not use analytics to track individual users across unrelated apps or services.
5. Advertising (If Enabled)
The App may display advertisements.
If advertising is enabled:
-
Third-party advertising SDKs may collect device information
-
Advertising identifiers (such as IDFA or GAID) may be used
-
Ads may be contextual or personalized depending on user consent and platform settings
We do not sell your home maintenance data, repair logs, or professional contact information.
Users may manage advertising preferences via their device settings.
6. Data Stored Locally
Most user-generated content (homes, repair logs, photos, etc.) is stored locally on your device in the App’s private storage.
We do not automatically upload this content to our servers.
Exported ZIP files and generated PDFs are created locally and shared only when initiated by you.
7. Network Communication
The App may communicate with:
-
Analytics providers
-
Crash reporting services
-
Advertising networks
-
Content delivery networks (for version checks)
These communications may involve transmission of technical data described in Section 3.
The App does not automatically upload your home records, repair logs, or photos.
8. Third-Party Service Providers
We may use third-party providers for:
-
Analytics
-
Crash reporting
-
Advertising
-
App distribution (Apple App Store / Google Play)
-
CDN services
These providers may process data according to their own privacy policies.
We require such providers to comply with applicable privacy laws.
9. Device Permissions
The App may request optional permissions:
-
Camera (to capture photos)
-
Photo library access
-
File storage access
Permissions are only used when explicitly activated by you.
10. Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to the nature of the data processed.
However:
-
No system can be guaranteed 100% secure
-
Data transmitted to third-party providers is subject to their security practices
-
Locally stored data security depends on your device protections
11. Data Retention
Locally stored user data remains on your device until deleted.
Analytics and crash data retention depends on the policies of the third-party providers used.
Advertising data retention depends on the advertising network policies.
12. International Users

-
We process personal data based on legitimate interest (app improvement), consent (where required), or contractual necessity
-
You may have rights including access, deletion, restriction, and objection
-
You may withdraw consent for advertising tracking via device settings
We do not intentionally process sensitive personal data.
The App does not perform automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects
