br0wnserver Home Assistant ("the app") is a private home automation system used only by one household. This policy explains how it handles data from Google.
With the account holder's permission (Google scope sdm.service), the app accesses only the Nest devices the account holder selects: thermostat status and settings, and doorbell events and camera streams. It does not access any other Google account data.
The data is used only to show and control those devices for the household, and to send the household notifications about doorbell events. It is not used for advertising, profiling, or any other purpose.
Data is processed and stored only on the household's own server in the home. Login tokens are stored on that server and are not shared. The server is protected by access controls and is not open to the public internet.
Data from Google is never sold, transferred, or shared with any third party.
The app's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Doorbell clips are deleted automatically after 30 days unless the household chooses to keep one. Access can be revoked at any time at myaccount.google.com/connections, which stops all further access. To have stored data deleted, email the contact below.
