Privacy Policy for DiHome
Effective Date: October 30, 2026
Last Updated: October 30, 2026
Welcome to DiHome ("we," "our," or "us"). This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the DiHome home automation mobile application ("App").
1. Information We Collect and How We Use It
A. Audio and Microphone Information (RECORD_AUDIO)
- Purpose: If microphone permission is enabled, it is used for hands-free voice control, such as issuing commands to turn compatible lights, fans, or appliances on or off.
- Processing: Voice commands are processed by the on-device or platform speech-recognition service configured in the App. Depending on the selected service and Android device settings, speech recognition may process audio on the device or send audio to the service provider. Confirm the actual implementation before publishing.
- Storage and retention: The App developer does not intentionally record or retain raw audio recordings. Confirm whether the speech-recognition provider independently processes or retains audio under its own terms.
B. Network and Device Communication (INTERNET)
- Purpose: The App uses network access to communicate with the configured home automation server, ESP8266 Wi-Fi gateway, and compatible relay boards.
- Data transmitted: Depending on your setup, communications may include relay states (such as on/off), channel identifiers, device status, hardware configuration, and commands you initiate.
- Security in transit: Use HTTPS for all applicable internet communications. If the App communicates with local devices over HTTP or another unencrypted protocol, this statement must be updated to describe that accurately.
C. Local Preferences
Settings such as room names, device nicknames, and interface preferences may be stored locally on your device. If the App synchronizes any of these settings with a home automation server, those settings are transmitted to that server as part of the configured functionality.
2. Third-Party Services and Data Sharing
DiHome is not intended to include third-party advertising or tracking SDKs. Verify this against the actual app build and all included SDKs before relying on this statement. The App may use an operating-system or platform speech-recognition service for voice commands; that service may process data according to its own privacy terms.
We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information. If hosting providers, analytics tools, crash-reporting tools, authentication services, or other third parties receive information from the App or server, this section must identify those services and explain what they receive and why.
3. Data Retention and Deletion
Preferences stored only on your device can generally be removed by clearing DiHome's app storage in Android Settings or uninstalling the App. This does not necessarily delete data stored on a separate home automation server, gateway, backup, or third-party speech-recognition service. If your installation stores data on a server, explain how users can request deletion of that data and provide a working contact method.
4. Children's Privacy
DiHome is a home automation application and is not specifically directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us using the details below.
5. Security
We use reasonable measures designed to protect information handled by the App and any services we operate. No method of transmission or electronic storage is completely secure. Users should secure their home Wi-Fi network, automation server, and connected devices with appropriate access controls.
6. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date.
