California Privacy Rights (CCPA Compliance)

If you are a resident of California, you are provided with specific rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). These rights are intended to give you transparency and control over how your personal information is collected, used, and shared.

 

Widgetsmith is designed to operate with minimal collection of personal information. Your health data, calendar data, reminders, photos, and location data remain solely on your device and are not transmitted to Widgetsmith. The only circumstances in which limited data leaves your device involve specific features: GPS coordinates are transmitted to Apple Weather, WorldTides, or Breezometer when you request weather, tide, or air quality data, respectively. In addition, subscription status data is received from the App Store and RevenueCat in anonymized form, without access to your billing information, name, or address. For non-subscribers, advertisements are displayed through Google’s AdMob system, but Widgetsmith has configured these ads to exclude personalization and tracking. At no point does Widgetsmith sell your personal information.

 

As a California resident, you have the right to request disclosure of the categories and specific pieces of personal information that may have been collected about you, the purposes for which such information may have been used, and the categories of third parties (if any) with whom such information may have been shared. Given Widgetsmith’s design, these requests typically relate only to anonymized subscription information, limited technical data, or any correspondence you may send to the support team.

 

You also have the right to request the deletion of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions required by law. Because Widgetsmith does not retain your personal data outside of your device, deletion requests generally apply only to limited subscription or support records.

 

In addition, you have the right to opt out of the sale of your personal information. Widgetsmith does not sell your personal information and has no plans to do so. Nonetheless, this right is recognized and honored under California law.

 

Finally, you are entitled to exercise these rights free of discrimination. Exercising your rights will not affect your access to Widgetsmith, change subscription pricing, or reduce the quality of the service provided.

 

If you wish to exercise any of these rights, you may submit a verifiable request by contacting the Widgetsmith support team. For your protection, and in accordance with the CCPA, Widgetsmith may require identity verification before fulfilling such a request.
