Wardelia Privacy Policy

Last Updated: November 2, 2026

This Privacy Policy applies to the Wardelia iOS application. It explains how the app handles information and how you can manage your data.

1. Information Processed Locally

Wardelia does not require registration or login. Information you enter into the app—or import via a backup—is stored locally on your device. This includes:

Client names, contact details, phone numbers, email addresses, physical addresses, and notes;
Lock profiles, ownership/assignment details, status checks, and repair records;
Service orders, labor hours, price quotes, dates, stage statuses, and records of materials used;
Material inventory, handover recipients, handover locations, timestamps, item lists, and reminder settings.

This information is used to provide features such as profile management, repair tracking, inventory management, handover scheduling, notifications, and backup/restore functionality. Please ensure that you only input information you are authorized to handle, and fulfill any applicable obligations—such as providing notice or obtaining consent—when recording the personal information of others.

2. Does the Developer Receive Your Data?

The current version of the app does not automatically upload the aforementioned work records to the developer. Furthermore, the app does not utilize any cloud storage or account-based services operated by the developer.

If you choose to contact the developer via email, the developer will receive your email address, the content of your message, and any attachments. This information is used solely to address your inquiries or support requests, or to comply with applicable legal requirements, and is retained only for as long as necessary for these purposes. Please refrain from sending unnecessary client data or complete business backups.

3. System Features and Permissions

Notifications: With your authorization, the app uses local iOS notifications to provide reminders regarding handovers. These notifications may display information such as the name of a lock, the type of handover, and the location; please be aware that this content may appear on your lock screen. You can disable notifications or hide previews via your iOS system settings. This feature does not rely on the developer’s servers to send remote push notifications.
Files: The export function saves a JSON backup file to the app’s "Documents" directory, which can be accessed via the iOS "Files" app. The restore function only accesses a file when you explicitly select it. - Phone: When you choose to initiate a call, the app passes the selected phone number to the system’s telephony function; whether a call is actually placed depends on the system process and your subsequent actions.
Clipboard: When you choose to copy content, the app writes the relevant data to the system clipboard. How that data is handled after being pasted into another application is determined by that application.

The current version does not request access to your camera, microphone, photo library, system contacts, or device location. Addresses—such as handover locations—must be entered manually.

The app does not automatically share your work records with third parties. You may choose to move or share backups via the "Files" app, email, AirDrop, or other services; such services will handle the data according to their own respective privacy policies.

Depending on your device and cloud service settings, app data or exported files may be included in system backups or file synchronization services provided by Apple or other third parties. Such backups and synchronization are controlled by you and the respective service providers; they do not imply that your data has been uploaded to the developer’s servers.

5. Data Retention, Security, and Deletion

Local records are generally retained until you delete them, clear the app data, or remove the app from your device. In some cases, data linked to other records may require you to first remove those links or delete the associated records. You can clear all work records within the app by navigating to "Lisää → Asetukset" and selecting "Tyhjennä kaikki tiedot."

Clearing app data does not automatically delete files you have exported, copies sent to others, system backups, or the contents of your system clipboard; please manage these items separately in their respective locations. Uninstalling the app typically removes data stored within the app container; however, system actions such as "Offload App"—which preserve data—are distinct from a complete deletion of the app.

The app relies on the device and application access protections provided by iOS; it does not implement additional application-level encryption or password protection for JSON backups. Please secure your device, keep your backups safe, and avoid sharing files containing personal information with unauthorized individuals. No storage method can guarantee absolute security.

6. Your Choices and Rights Regarding Data

You may view, modify, or delete records within the app, and you may export backups of your data. Developers generally cannot remotely access, retrieve, or delete data that is stored exclusively on your device.

Regarding information you have proactively provided to the developer, you may submit requests to access, correct, delete, or otherwise exercise your data protection rights by contacting us via the email address provided below. Depending on applicable law, you may also have additional rights, including the right to lodge a complaint with a relevant data protection authority. If information was entered and managed by an organization on its own devices, you may also contact that organization to address your requests.

7. Children’s Privacy

Wardelia is designed for use in contexts such as lock repair, collection management, and workbench organization; it is not specifically intended for children. The developer does not knowingly collect personal information from children through the application. If you believe that you have provided information about a child that should not have been shared with the developer, please contact us so that we may address the matter.

8. Policy Updates and Contact Information

We may update this policy—and the date indicated above—whenever our data processing practices change. In the event of significant changes, we will provide notification through appropriate channels.
