Your things stay yours.

My Things stores your collection on your device. Signing in does not upload it: personal cloud sync must be enabled separately.

Cloud and household data

Supabase stores account credentials, synced collections, photos, documents and shared household records. Access is restricted by account and household membership. Cloud data is not end-to-end encrypted. Personal cloud storage holds up to 12 copies of up to 40 MB each. Existing saved copies are not automatically removed by setup. You can review and confirm cleanup, or opt into automatic cleanup, which keeps the current collection and its two most recent recovery copies, plus copies replaced in the last 10 minutes. Uncommitted uploads abandoned for more than 24 hours are removed automatically. Small identifiers for removed files remain until account deletion to prevent delayed uploads from recreating those copies. Export your own backup if you need an independent copy.

AI features

When you choose recognition, the selected image or extracted video frames are sent through our Railway-hosted service to OpenAI. Resale research sends the product description, condition and selected market, not your whole collection. When matching listings are sparse, resale may use a labelled low-reliability calculation or AI approximation from general product knowledge. Optional inventory column matching sends only CSV headings; rows and imported photos are processed on your device. Description search sends only your question for related search terms, not your collection. Manufacturer-guide lookup sends the brand and model to OpenAI and web search; care questions also send your confirmed guide URL and question. Guide selections and answers are saved with the belonging and included in your backups and personal cloud sync when enabled. These assistant requests are not stored by our server. Review AI suggestions before saving: recognition, prices and care summaries can be wrong.

The hosting service does not save recognition images or log request bodies. Research requests/results are retained for up to 30 days for caching and reliable background processing. AI request counters expire after two days. OpenAI may retain API data under its own abuse-monitoring policies; read its data guidance. We do not claim zero provider retention.

Permissions and notifications

Camera and photo access are used when you choose to capture or attach media. Usage-based care uses the readings you record; it does not track your location. Device notifications are optional. The app does not contain advertising or analytics SDKs. App checks can copy a report containing app version, device details and check results; it does not include your account or collection and is not uploaded automatically.

Delete your account

Start account deletion here, or use Cloud sync → Delete account in the app. Deletion removes active cloud snapshots, documents, shared contributions, owned households, research jobs and the login. Other people’s own records stay with them; your last-edit attribution and shared note are removed. Independently downloaded copies and your local device collection are not remotely erased. Your phone’s own backup settings may also retain device data; those copies are managed through your phone or backup provider.

A private deletion receipt is kept for seven days after completion, without your account ID or email. Infrastructure backups may remain until the hosting provider’s backup retention expires; they are not available through the app. For support and privacy requests, contact nrhosliya404@gmail.com. This is the temporary contact for the My Things private beta.
