The short version
- We collect only what Home Schedule needs to work: your account and the things you add to your home.
- Everyone in a home can see that home's calendars, events, recipes, meal plan, shopping list, chores, and shared bills and income. Private calendars and private bills or income are visible only to you.
- Home Schedule never connects to your bank. Bills and income are only the names and amounts you type in.
- No ads, no tracking and no analytics in the app, and we never sell your information. This website counts visits with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which doesn't use cookies.
- You can delete your account at any time in the app: Settings › Delete Account.
Contents
1. Information we collect
Your account
Your name, email address and password. Passwords are stored in hashed form by our authentication provider — we never see or store your actual password.
What you add to a home
- Homes and people: home names, and the names, email addresses and roles of the people in each home.
- Invitations: when you invite someone, we store the name and email address you enter so they can join.
- Calendars and events: calendar names and colors, and each event's title, date and time, location, notes and who it's for.
- Recipes, meal plans and shopping lists: recipe titles, ingredients, steps, notes and links to the original recipe and its photo; which meals are planned on which days; and shopping list items and check marks.
- Finance: bills and income you add — each one's name, amount, due date or payday, how it repeats, notes, and whether it's been marked paid or received. We don't connect to banks or payment accounts, and we don't collect card or account numbers.
- Household chores: each chore's name, room, how long it takes, how it repeats, who it's assigned to, notes, and which days it's been checked off.
Your preferences
Which built-in calendars (Holidays, NFL, NBA) you've turned off, and your favorite NFL and NBA teams.
What we don't collect
We don't collect your location, contacts, photos, health data, advertising identifiers or browsing history, and the app contains no analytics or advertising software.
2. How we use it
Only to provide Home Schedule: to sign you in, keep your home in sync across its members' devices, show you your calendars, meal plans, bills and chores, and send emails you'd expect — like confirming your email address, resetting your password, or inviting someone you added to your home.
We don't use your information for advertising, we don't track you across other apps or websites, and we don't sell or rent it to anyone.
3. Who can see your information
- People in your home can see the home's members, shared calendars and events, recipes, meal plan, shopping list, chores, and shared bills and income, and can add to or change them. Owners and admins can invite and remove people.
- Private calendars and their events, and bills or income marked "Only Me", are visible only to the person who created them.
- Someone you invite can see the home's name and your name in the invitation before they decide to join.
- Your preferences (turned-off calendars and favorite teams) are visible only to you.
We may disclose information if required by law, or to protect the safety of people or the service.
4. Service providers
We use a small number of companies to run Home Schedule. They process information only on our behalf and under their own security and privacy commitments:
- Supabase — database, sign-in and server functions. Your account and home data are stored here.
- Resend — sends account and invitation emails. It receives the recipient's email address and the message content.
- Cloudflare — hosts this website and our domain, and provides the website's visit counts (Cloudflare Web Analytics).
- Apple — distributes the app through the App Store and TestFlight, under Apple's privacy policy.
5. Content from other websites
- Game schedules: NFL and NBA schedules come from Home Schedule's own database (hosted by Supabase), not from a sports website. Downloading them doesn't send any account information.
- Recipe links: when you paste or share a recipe link, your device downloads that page directly from the recipe website to read the ingredients and steps, and recipe photos load from their original websites. Those sites' own privacy policies apply to those requests.
6. Data stored on your device
The app keeps a copy of your homes on your device so it opens quickly and works offline. Changes you make without a connection wait on your device until they can be sent, and recipes you share from Safari wait in the app's private storage until you next open it. This data is removed when you delete the app or delete your account.
7. Keeping and deleting data
We keep your information for as long as you have an account. You can delete your account at any time in the app under Settings › Delete Account. When you do:
- Your login, profile, preferences, home memberships, private calendars, and private bills and income are deleted.
- For each home you created: if other people have joined, ownership passes to one of them and the home stays for them; if you're the only member, the home and everything in it is deleted.
- Events, recipes, chores and shared bills or income you added to a shared home stay with that household, no longer linked to your account.
- Pending invitations sent to your email address are removed.
Deleted data is removed from our active systems right away and may remain in routine backups for a limited time before being overwritten. You can also ask us to delete your data by emailing support_MHS@ourhomeschedule.com.
8. Security
Information is encrypted in transit between the app and our servers, and database access rules ensure that only members of a home can read that home's data. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your information and will notify you as required by law if a breach affects it.
9. Children
Home Schedule accounts are intended for people 13 and older. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Parents can include children by name in their home's events. If you believe a child under 13 has created an account, contact us and we'll delete it.
10. Your choices and rights
You can view and change most of your information directly in the app, turn off built-in calendars, leave a home, and delete your account. Depending on where you live (for example California, the EU or the UK), you may have rights to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of your personal information, or to object to certain uses. We honor these requests for everyone — email support_MHS@ourhomeschedule.com and we'll respond within 30 days.
11. This website
ourhomeschedule.com uses Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand how many people visit and which pages they view. It doesn't use cookies or similar storage on your device and doesn't follow you across other websites; it records things like the page viewed, the site that linked to it, and general information about your browser, device type and country. We see only totals, not who you are. Cloudflare, which hosts the site, may also process standard request logs (such as IP addresses) to deliver and protect it.
This applies only to the website. The Home Schedule app contains no analytics.
12. Changes and contact
If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top, and let you know in the app before significant changes take effect.
