Privacy Ledger

This policy applies to Tablelight Housebook version 1.0.0, package nz.org.abbeyfieldauckland.tablelight, prepared for Abbeyfield Auckland Incorporated as a shared-home orientation companion. Privacy questions may be sent to office@abbeyfield.org.nz.

The release does not request Android Internet permission, create an online account, connect to a server, or fetch a live house, vacancy, menu, event, tenancy, staffing, or application feed. Core text and images are bundled with the app.

We do not collect names, contact details, account credentials, age, finances, assets, tenancy or application information, health or care information, medication, dietary requirements, disability details, location, contacts, photos, audio, device identifiers, advertising identifiers, payment information, free-text notes, or messages.

A user may select preset visit questions, studio preferences, participation modes, conversation intentions, garden interests, a rhythm segment, and accessibility settings. The Visit Kit can hold up to four ordered preset questions. These choices are not linked to a name.

Local choices support private orientation and interface preferences. They are not used to assess housing need, suitability, independence, risk, capacity, eligibility, priority, tenancy, care level, health, conduct, social participation, or volunteer performance.

Preset choices are processed only on the device and stored in Android app-private SharedPreferences. Tablelight Housebook does not create a resident file, household roster, case record, attendance history, or behavioural score.

The release requests no Internet, location, camera, microphone, contacts, calendar, phone, SMS, notification, Bluetooth, nearby-device, storage, health, accessibility-service, biometric, or advertising permission. Android may add an internal signature permission for framework component safety.

The release contains no advertising SDK, analytics SDK, crash-reporting SDK, social SDK, cloud database, attribution service, payment SDK, AI network service, remote configuration, or third-party tracking library.

Because the release does not transmit user data off the device, it does not sell, share, rent, disclose, or provide app-held user data to Abbeyfield, advertisers, data brokers, analytics providers, insurers, health providers, government agencies, or other third parties.

The app displays public contact details and source URLs as reference text. It does not place calls, compose email, open a browser, submit a form, reserve a viewing, join a waiting list, or send Visit Kit choices. A user chooses independently whether to contact an organisation outside the app.

The app is not an application, tenancy service, vacancy source, affordability calculator, eligibility checker, property inspection, legal notice, or source of current charges. Only authorised people and current official processes can answer house-specific or residency questions.

Tablelight Housebook is a housing-orientation and conversation tool, not a medical, nursing, aged-care, disability assessment, diagnosis, treatment, medication, fall-detection, emergency, safeguarding-report, or professional-care service. It does not replace human support or emergency services.

The app provides larger text, stronger contrast, reduced motion, descriptive image labels, large touch targets, and reversible preset choices. These settings affect only this app and do not infer disability, capacity, health, or support needs.

Local preferences remain until the user changes them, uses Clear local choices, clears Android app storage, or uninstalls the app. There is no server copy, account history, retention schedule for transmitted data, or recovery service.

Clear local choices removes the app's preset selections immediately. Clearing app storage or uninstalling removes all app-held state. Account deletion is not applicable because the release has no account system or server-side user profile.

Selections use Android app-private storage. Cloud backup and device-to-device transfer are disabled for app data. The privacy of an unlocked device or screenshot cannot be guaranteed; users should use device security and avoid treating the app as secure document storage.

The app is designed for adults considering, visiting, supporting, volunteering with, or living in shared housing. It is not directed to children and does not offer child accounts, family profiles, social features, messaging, user-generated content, targeted advertising, or public resident information.

A future release that adds networking, accounts, forms, analytics, advertising, health features, permissions, or new data practices must update the app, public policy, Play Data safety answers, and applicable declarations before distribution. Privacy contact: office@abbeyfield.org.nz.
