Privacy Policy - Stellar Baby

Introduction

Welcome to Stellar Baby. We are committed to protecting your privacy and the privacy of your family.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information when you use the Stellar Baby mobile application (the "App").

You can use parts of the App without creating an account. Some features require an account, as described below.

Who this policy applies to

The App is intended for adults (parents, guardians, or caregivers). We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children.

Anonymity and Guest Mode

You can use the App without creating an account via Guest Mode. In Guest Mode, you are not required to identify yourself.

This option exists for users who wish to use core features without providing personal information.

Information we collect

The categories below describe the general types of information we collect. Specific data points may vary depending on the features you use, whether you create an account, and the settings you enable.

Use without an account (Guest Mode)

If you use the App without creating an account:

  • Real-time temperature and humidity readings
  • Bluetooth connection and pairing data
  • Device connection status

This information is not stored long-term and is not linked to a personal profile.

Use with an account

If you choose to create an account, we may collect:

  • Email address
  • Name or display name (optional)
  • Profile image (optional)
  • Account preferences and settings
  • Authentication credentials

Creating an account enables additional features such as historical graphs, personalisation, and shared access via Spaces.

Device and technical information

When you use the App (with or without an account), we may collect:

  • Device identifiers and names
  • Bluetooth connection and pairing information
  • Battery and connection status
  • App usage and session information
  • IP address and coarse, network-derived location data

We do not collect precise GPS location data.

Analytics information

We use Firebase Analytics (operated by Google LLC, United States) to understand how users interact with the App. This may include, but is not limited to:

  • Screen views and navigation patterns
  • In-app events and feature usage
  • Session duration and frequency
  • Device type, operating system, and app version

This data is collected with or without an account. It is used in aggregate form to improve the App and is processed by Google on servers located primarily in the United States.

Crash and error reporting

We use Sentry (operated by Functional Software, Inc., United States) for crash detection and error monitoring. When an error or crash occurs, Sentry may capture, including but not limited to:

  • Device information (model, OS version, memory state)
  • App state and version at the time of the error
  • Error type, stack trace, and diagnostic context
  • A device identifier generated by Sentry to help us trace and resolve issues

Crash data is processed on servers located primarily in the United States. No account credentials, names, or email addresses are sent to Sentry.

How we use your information

We use information to:

  • Operate and maintain the App
  • Enable device connectivity and monitoring
  • Display live data and, where applicable, historical data
  • Send alerts based on user-defined settings
  • Understand how the App is used so we can improve it
  • Detect, diagnose, and fix technical issues and crashes

Sharing your information

We do not sell personal information.

We may share information:

  • With your consent or at your direction (for example, within Spaces you manage)
  • With trusted service providers who help operate the App, including Google LLC (Firebase Analytics, United States) and Functional Software, Inc. (Sentry, United States)
  • To comply with legal obligations or valid legal requests
  • To protect rights, safety, or property
  • In connection with permitted business transactions

Data security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures, including encryption and access controls, to protect personal information.

Our third-party service providers (including Google and Sentry) are required to handle personal information in a manner consistent with applicable privacy standards.

No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data retention

Information generated in Guest Mode is not retained long-term

Information associated with an account is retained while the account remains active

You can delete your account at any time within the App

After account deletion, personal information is deleted or anonymised unless retention is required or permitted by law.

Analytics and crash reporting data retained by third-party providers is subject to their own retention policies.

Your rights

If you have an account, you may:

  • Access or update your personal information
  • Delete your account directly within the App

App permissions

The App may request access to:

  • Bluetooth: (to connect to devices)
  • Location: (Android only, required for Bluetooth scanning)
  • Notifications: (to deliver alerts)
  • Camera or photos: (optional, for profile images)

International data processing

Your information may be processed outside Australia. This includes data processed by Firebase Analytics (Google LLC) and Sentry (Functional Software, Inc.), both of which operate servers primarily in the United States.

We take reasonable steps to ensure that overseas recipients handle personal information in a manner consistent with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), including through contractual arrangements with our service providers.

Privacy complaints

If you have a concern or complaint about how we have handled your personal information, please contact us in the first instance at privacy@stellarbaby.com.au.

We will acknowledge your complaint within a reasonable time and aim to resolve it within 14 days. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may escalate your complaint to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at www.oaic.gov.au.
