Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how BLEControlsPi collects, uses, and discloses information when you use our application. At Blue Pie Apps LLC, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about how your data is handled.

Information Collection and Use

Bluetooth Permissions

Our app requires Bluetooth permissions to establish a direct connection between your device and a Raspberry Pi. Important points about these permissions:

  • Bluetooth permissions are used solely to establish a Bluetooth Low energy (BLE) connection to your Raspberry Pi device - on which you must have pre-installed our free companion Python Code (ie: you cannot connect to any Raspberry Pi unless you have physically installed that code on a given Raspberry Pi).
  • We do not collect, store, or track your actual location data which may or may not be enabled when you agree to Bluetooth permissions
  • These permissions are only used to transmit controls' values from your device to the Raspberry Pi, and to received messages from the Raspberry Pi to your device.
  • This control value data is not stored on our servers and is not shared with any third parties

Data used by the app:

The data used by the app is limited to: - the raspberry pi hostname encoded (hashed) which you connect to and its associated hashed key (persisted in keychain) - the controls definition (type, labels, initial values, positioning/sizes data on screen) - your in-app purchases (controls pack: define the number of controls you can create) - text entered in controls you have defined.

Information We Do Not Collect

We do not collect or request:

  • Personal identification information
  • Device identification information
  • Browsing history or usage patterns
  • Location data
  • Contact information
  • any other identifying information

Logging and Debugging

For the purpose of improving app performance and troubleshooting technical issues, we may record:

  • App crash information
  • Performance metrics
  • General usage statistics (non-personally identifiable)
  • controls transmission to and from raspberry pi

These logs are stored locally on your device only and are not automatically transmitted to us. You may choose to share these logs with the developer for troubleshooting purposes, but the developer has no way of retrieving these logs unless you explicitly share them. Logs are used solely for debugging and improving our application.

Third-Party Services
