Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 24, 2026
Who we are
Hommato is operated by Werino, an individual based in Croatia. This policy explains what data Hommato collects, why, and how you can control it. Questions or requests can be sent to hello@hommato.com.
What we collect
When you create an account, we collect your email address and name. As you use the app, Hommato stores the household data you add: bills, appliances, car service records, warranties, calendar events, and any photos you attach to those records. We also store your currency preference and, if you enable push reminders, a device push token.
Household sharing
When you join or create a household in Hommato, the records in that household — bills, appliances, car and warranty entries, and calendar events — are visible to everyone else in that household. Household members can also see each other's name, email address, and profile photo on the household's member list. You can only join a household through a single-use invite link that you choose to open. You belong to one household at a time: if you open an invite while already in a household, the app asks before moving you, and if you were the only member of your previous household, that household and everything in it is deleted.
Push notifications
To send reminders, Hommato stores a device push token and uses it to deliver notifications based on the reminder cadence you choose (relaxed, balanced, or proactive). Notifications are currently sent to Android devices via Expo's push service, which relays delivery through Firebase Cloud Messaging; these providers only see the token and message needed to deliver the notification, not your household data. iOS push support is planned.
Photos
Photos you attach to a bill or warranty are stored so they can be viewed by your household. When you delete the record, its category, or the household, the photo is deleted too — immediately, or within 24 hours when it's removed as part of a larger deletion. Your profile photo is visible to your household members and is deleted when you remove it or delete your account.
Crash reporting
When the app crashes or hits an unexpected error, it sends a crash report to Sentry, our error-monitoring provider, so we can find and fix the problem. A report contains technical details — the error and where in the code it happened, your device model, operating system and app version — and the IP address the report was sent from. It doesn't include your household records or photos. Sentry stores this data in the EU (Germany).
Where your data is stored
Hommato's data is hosted with Supabase, our database and storage provider. Account emails (sign-up confirmation and password reset) are sent through Resend, which receives your email address for that purpose only. Because Hommato is available globally, your data may be processed on servers outside your own country; we rely on our provider's standard safeguards for these transfers.
How long we keep it
We keep your data for as long as your account or household exists. You can delete your account at any time from the app, or by following the steps on our account deletion page. Deleting your account permanently deletes your profile (name, email address, and profile photo), push tokens, and notification settings. If you own a household, deleting your account also deletes that household and everything in it — including attached photos — for every member, so make sure you're the last one out if others still use it. (If you move to another household through an invite link instead, ownership of your previous household passes to its longest-standing remaining member.) Deleted data may persist in our hosting provider's encrypted backups for a limited period before it is overwritten. Crash reports are kept by Sentry according to its standard retention period.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data, or to object to how it's processed. Account and content deletion are available directly in the app, and you can also request account deletion without the app via our account deletion page. For anything else, contact us at hello@hommato.com. If you're in the EU/EEA, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
Children's privacy
Hommato is not directed at children and isn't intended for use by anyone under 16. We don't knowingly collect personal data from children.
What we don't do
We don't sell your data, and we don't share household records with anyone outside your household. The app has no advertising and no usage analytics or tracking — the only diagnostic data it sends is the crash reporting described above.
Website analytics
This website (not the app) uses Google Analytics to understand how many people visit and which pages they read. Google Analytics is only loaded if you choose "Accept" on the cookie banner — until then, and if you choose "Reject", no data is sent to Google. Advertising features are always off. Your choice is remembered in your browser, and you can change it by clearing this site's stored data.
Future changes
Hommato is currently free. If we introduce paid plans in the future, we'll update this policy to describe any payment provider involved before that provider processes any of your data.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as Hommato evolves. We'll post the updated version here with a new date.
