Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 2026

Home Catalog ("the App") is operated by Moodzy ("we," "us," or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information when you use the App. By using Home Catalog, you agree to the practices described below.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information when you use the App:

• Account Information: When you sign in, we collect your email address, display name (if provided), and an authentication provider ID through Firebase Authentication. You sign in with a passwordless email link, Google, or Apple — we never see or store a password.
• Inventory Data: The items you add to your inventory, including titles, descriptions, locations, tags, and any photos you upload.
• Photos: Images you attach to your inventory items are uploaded and stored in Firebase Cloud Storage.
• Photos You Submit for Auto Fill: If you choose to use Auto Fill, the single photo you select is sent to Google Cloud for analysis so the App can suggest a title, description, and tags. This happens only when you tap Auto Fill. See Section 5 for full details.
• Subscription Information: If you subscribe to Home Catalog Pro, we receive subscription status and transaction identifiers through RevenueCat. We do not collect or store your payment card details directly.

We do not use third-party analytics or advertising SDKs, we do not use advertising identifiers, and we do not track you across other apps or websites. Our servers keep basic technical logs (such as request times and errors) to operate and secure the service.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, operate, and maintain the Home Catalog service.
• Sync your inventory data across your devices so you can access it anywhere.
• Manage your subscription status and enforce tier limits (free vs. Pro).
• Authenticate your identity and secure your account.
• Generate suggested titles, descriptions, and tags when you use Auto Fill.
• Diagnose technical issues and improve the App's performance and reliability.

3. Data Storage

Your data is stored across the following infrastructure:

• Firebase Authentication: Your account credentials and authentication tokens are managed by Google's Firebase platform.
• Firebase Cloud Storage: Photos you upload are stored in Firebase Cloud Storage, hosted by Google.
• PostgreSQL Database: Your inventory data (items, locations, tags, and associated metadata) is stored in a PostgreSQL database hosted on Hetzner servers located in Falkenstein, Germany.

We take reasonable measures to protect your data, including encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS) between the App and our servers.

4. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services to operate the App:

• Firebase (Google): Authentication and photo storage.
• Google Cloud (Google LLC): Analysis of photos you submit through Auto Fill, using Google's Gemini models on the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform (previously named Vertex AI). See Section 5.
• RevenueCat: Subscription and in-app purchase management.
• Apple App Store: App distribution and payment processing for iOS users.
• Google Play Store: App distribution and payment processing for Android users.

Each of these services has its own privacy policy. We encourage you to review them.

5. Photo Analysis (Auto Fill)

Auto Fill is an optional feature that suggests a title, description, and tags for an item by analyzing a photo of it. Because this involves sending your photo outside the App, we describe it here in full.

• It runs only when you ask it to. A photo is sent for analysis only when you select it and tap Auto Fill. Photos you simply attach to an item are never analyzed. The App shows a one-time explanation before your first use.
• Who receives the photo. The photo is sent to Google Cloud (Google LLC), which acts as our data processor under the Google Cloud Platform Terms of Service. Analysis is performed by Google's Gemini models on the service Google currently calls the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform, previously named Vertex AI. Google is already our provider for authentication and photo storage; using it for analysis adds no new company to the list of parties that handle your data.
• Where it is processed. Analysis is performed in Google's European region (europe-west1, Belgium).
• What we send. The image itself, and nothing else. We do not send your name, email address, account identifier, item identifier, or the file name along with it.
• Training. Photos submitted through Auto Fill are not used to train Google's models. We use Google's paid service tier, under which Google does not use submitted content to improve its products.
• Retention by Google. Google does not keep photos submitted through Auto Fill. The one exception: if Google's automated safety systems flag a request as potentially abusive, that photo may be retained for up to 90 days, in the same region it was processed in, solely for abuse review — it is never used to train models. We have additionally asked Google to disable even this retention for our account.
• Deleting an item does not undo an analysis. If you delete an item, its photo, or your whole account, that removes the data from our systems. It cannot retract a copy Google already holds under the retention terms above. Any such copy expires on Google's schedule, not ours.
• Suggestions are only suggestions. They pre-fill fields you can edit, and nothing is saved to your inventory until you save it.

A note on sensitive photographs. A home inventory often captures documents, prescriptions, mail, financial paperwork, and identification — and a photo may include such things incidentally, in the background. We cannot detect or filter this, and we cannot control what a photo contains. If a photo shows anything you would rather not send to a third party, please do not use Auto Fill on it; add the item manually instead. The App repeats this warning where you use the feature.

6. Data Retention

We retain your account and inventory data for as long as your account is active. If you request deletion of your account, we will delete your personal data, inventory records, and uploaded photos from our systems within 30 days. Some data may persist in encrypted backups for a limited period before being purged. Photos previously submitted for Auto Fill analysis are subject to Google's retention terms as described in Section 5.

7. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you.
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Delete your account and all associated data yourself in the app under Settings → Delete Account — no need to contact us. Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone.
• Export your inventory data upon request.

We do not sell your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at moodzy.apps@gmail.com.

8. Children's Privacy

Home Catalog is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal data, we will take steps to delete that information promptly. If you believe a child has provided us with their data, please contact us at moodzy.apps@gmail.com.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we protect your data. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
