Privacy Policy
Thank you for using Sabja. This Privacy Policy explains what information Sabja can access, why access is needed, and how your information is handled.
Short version: Sabja keeps core app data on your device. If you turn on Share Thermal State, Sabja stores device records in your private iCloud database so you can view them across your Apple devices and in the All Devices widget. We do not sell your personal data. Sabja may collect app usage data through Firebase Analytics to improve the app, and you can opt out from the Settings tab.
1. Information We Collect
Sabja does not require account creation and does not ask for personal profile details like your name, phone number, or address.
- On-device app data: Settings, preferences, and app state may be stored locally on your device.
- Optional iCloud device sharing: If you turn on Share Thermal State, Sabja stores the device details described below in your private iCloud database.
- App usage data: Sabja may collect app usage data through Firebase Analytics, such as screen views, feature usage, and basic app interaction events. You can opt out from the Settings tab.
- Location: If you enable Smart Suggestions or use the Lock Screen widget's weather lookup, Sabja may access your location to fetch current weather information from Apple Weather for those features.
- Subscription and purchase data: If Sabja offers paid features, Apple handles billing through your App Store account. We do not receive your full payment card details. Sabja uses RevenueCat to manage subscriptions and confirm your Sabja Pro access; RevenueCat receives your purchase and subscription status, an anonymous identifier for your installation, and basic device and app information.
2. Permissions Sabja May Use
- Location: Used only when needed for weather-aware Smart Suggestions and the Lock Screen widget.
- Notifications: Used to send local alerts about Thermal State changes, daily summaries, and battery level alerts, plus an optional monthly reminder to share Sabja. You can turn off the share reminder in Settings.
You can manage or revoke Location and Notification permissions from your device settings at any time.
3. How Sabja Uses Information
- To provide core features such as Thermal State monitoring, Smart Suggestions, widgets, and local notifications.
- To remember your settings and preferences across app sessions.
- To understand aggregate app usage and improve app quality when analytics is enabled.
- To support troubleshooting when you contact us directly and share details voluntarily.
4. Data Sharing and Selling
We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your data for advertising or cross-app tracking.
If analytics is enabled, app usage events are processed by Firebase Analytics by Google. If Smart Suggestions use weather support, location data may be shared only as needed with Apple Weather (WeatherKit) to provide that feature. If you purchase or restore Sabja Pro, purchase and subscription information is processed by RevenueCat to manage your access.
5. Third-Party Services
- Firebase Analytics: Used to understand app usage and improve product quality. You can opt out from the Settings tab.
- Apple iCloud: Used only when you turn on Share Thermal State, to share device records through your private iCloud database.
- Apple App Store: Used for subscriptions or purchases if paid features are offered.
- RevenueCat: Used to manage subscriptions and verify Sabja Pro access.
- Apple Weather (WeatherKit): Used only when weather-aware Smart Suggestions or the Lock Screen widget need current weather information.
6. Data Storage and Retention
App settings and preferences are stored locally on your device and protected by Apple's platform security features. Since most app data is stored locally, you control retention by deleting app data or removing Sabja from your device.
If you contact support by email, the information you provide is retained in that email thread for support follow-up.
Sharing Thermal State between your devices
Sabja can show the Thermal State of your Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Apple Vision Pro) in the app and in the All Devices widget. Sharing is off until you turn on Share Thermal State in Settings › My Devices.
When sharing is on, each device stores a small record in your private iCloud database containing:
- A random identifier created by Sabja for that device, not your Apple ID or a hardware serial number.
- The device’s name (or the name you chose in My Devices), its type and model identifier.
- Its system and Sabja versions.
- Its current Thermal State (Nominal, Fair, Serious or Critical), when that state began, and when the device last checked in.
Thermal State is a qualitative indication of system thermal pressure; Sabja does not record or display exact degrees.
These records are available only to your devices signed in to the same Apple ID. The developer cannot read your private iCloud database. The device name is stored encrypted by iCloud. Sabja also keeps a local copy of the device list so the app and the All Devices widget can display it.
Turning off Share Thermal State deletes the local device list and asks iCloud to remove that device’s record. Removal from iCloud requires a successful connection; if it fails, the record may remain until it is removed manually or cleaned up as inactive.
Settings › My Devices also lets you remove other devices. A device that still has sharing enabled may appear again when it next checks in. Records for other devices that have not checked in for 30 days are deleted automatically during a device-list refresh while sharing is enabled; cleanup depends on a successful iCloud connection.
7. Subscriptions and Billing
If Sabja offers an auto-renewable subscription, billing is handled by Apple through your App Store account. Subscription terms, price, billing period, and auto-renew behaviour are shown in the app before purchase. You can manage or cancel subscriptions in Apple Account Settings. Subscription status is managed with RevenueCat, as described above.
8. Children's Privacy
Sabja is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as features evolve or legal requirements change. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date on this page.
