This Privacy Policy explains how DStation Remote ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our application. By using the application, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Information We Collect
a. User Credentials
The application requires user credentials to connect to your Synology NAS device. These credentials are stored locally on your device only if you select the "Remember Me" option on the login screen. Credentials stored locally are secured using the device's Secure Storage mechanisms and are never transmitted to our servers or third parties.
b. Diagnostic Data
For error logging and debugging, we collect diagnostic data via the third-party service Sentry.io. The collected data may include non-personally identifiable information such as error messages, application states, and usage patterns.
c. Automatically Collected Information
We may automatically log information provided by your device when you use the app, including:
- Your device's Internet Protocol (IP) address.
- Device type and version.
- Activity within the app (e.g., actions taken, screen views).
- Time, date, and duration of app usage.
This data may also include technical information about any errors encountered during app use. While such data is typically non-personally identifiable, it may, in rare cases, be combined with other data to identify an individual.
d. Firebase Analytics
We use Firebase Analytics by Google to collect and analyze app usage data. This includes information such as user engagement, session duration, and events triggered within the app. Firebase Analytics helps us improve the app's functionality and user experience.
For more information, please refer to Google's Privacy Policy.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for the following purposes:
- NAS Connectivity: To enable secure and efficient communication with your Synology NAS device.
- Error Diagnosis and Debugging: To monitor, identify, and resolve application errors through Sentry.io.
- Analytics: To analyze user behavior and improve the app's performance using Firebase Analytics.
3. How We Protect Your Information
We take data security seriously and implement the following measures:
- Credentials are stored locally on your device using Secure Storage only when "Remember Me" is enabled.
- Diagnostic data is anonymized where possible before being sent to third-party services.
- All collected data is stored and processed within commercially acceptable means to protect it from unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute data security.
4. Retention of Data
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy. For example:
- Credentials are kept locally only as long as the "Remember Me" option is enabled.
- Diagnostic and analytics data may be retained for troubleshooting and service improvement but will be deleted or anonymized once no longer needed.
5. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Sentry.io: For application error monitoring and debugging.
- Firebase Analytics: For user behavior analysis and app performance improvement.
Additionally, our app may contain links to third-party websites or services. These external services have their own privacy policies, and we recommend reviewing those policies to understand how they handle your data. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party services.
6. User Responsibility for Content
The application DStation Remote acts as a remote control for your Synology NAS device. Users are solely responsible for ensuring that any content they download, store, or manage using the application complies with applicable copyright laws and regulations in their jurisdiction.
The developer of this application does not endorse or condone the use of the app for any illegal purposes and shall not be held liable for any legal issues arising from the user's content or activities.
7. Your Rights and Controlling Your Personal Information
- Access and Correction: Please note that we do not store any personal data on our servers. Data collected for analytics and error reporting is processed and stored by third-party services such as Firebase Analytics and Sentry.io. As such, we are unable to provide access to or modify this data.
- Data Deletion: To delete your stored credentials, you can log out of the application. This will clear any saved account data from your device.
- Consent Withdrawal: Currently, there is no option to disable the collection of diagnostic and analytics data, as this is essential for app improvement and error handling.
8. Notification of Data Breaches
In the unlikely event of a data breach, we will comply with applicable laws by notifying affected users and relevant authorities in a timely manner.
9. Business Transfers
If we or our assets are acquired by another entity, your data may be transferred to the new owner as part of the transaction. The new owner will be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy, ensuring continuity in data handling practices.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be communicated through the application or other appropriate means. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent changes.
