This Privacy Policy explains how Lunar Apps LLC ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use the DashPal mobile application ("the App") on iPhone and in CarPlay.
If you have any questions, contact us at 📧 contact@lunarapps.io.
Most of what the App remembers never leaves your phone. This includes:
This information is used only to show it back to you inside the App, its widgets, and CarPlay.
When you add a Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, or Xtream server, an M3U playlist, or files, the App connects directly from your phone to that server or address to list and play your media. Passwords and access tokens are stored in your phone's Keychain. To sign in to Plex, the App uses Plex's own sign-in page at plex.tv. Each of those services handles your information under its own privacy policy. We never receive your sign-in details or what you watch.
With your permission, the App looks for media servers on your Wi-Fi network. It also makes itself visible on your network so that other apps can cast video to it, and so that your iPhone screen can be shown on a back-seat display. These connections stay on your local network and are not sent to us.
If you pick photos for a widget, or import videos or sounds, the App copies only the items you choose. They stay on your phone and are not uploaded.
Websites you open in the built-in browser receive the same information they would in any browser, such as your IP address and the cookies they set. We do not see the pages you visit.
If you subscribe, the purchase is handled by Apple. We never see your card details. We use RevenueCat to tell us whether your subscription is active. RevenueCat receives an anonymous app user identifier and your purchase information from Apple in order to do that. It does not receive your name, your email address, your widgets, or anything you watch.
If you set up a Shortcuts automation to play a DashPal sound, the automation runs on your phone. We do not receive anything from it.
If you email us, we receive what you send, including your email address and your message. We use it only to answer you.
We do not use your information for advertising, we do not build profiles about you, and we do not sell or rent it.
| Provider | What it does | What it receives |
|---|---|---|
| RevenueCat | Subscription status | An anonymous app user identifier and purchase information |
| Apple | App Store purchases and CarPlay | Governed by Apple's own privacy policy |
| Media services you add | Your own libraries and channels | Your sign-in and requests for your media, sent directly from your phone |
Each provider has its own privacy policy, and we encourage you to read them.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access your data, correct it, delete it, restrict or object to how we process it, or receive it in a portable format. Because everything is stored on your phone, you can see, change, and delete it yourself in the App. For anything else, contact us at contact@lunarapps.io and we will respond in accordance with applicable law.
You can also turn off photo and local network access at any time in your phone's settings.
In the App: remove a source in Settings → Manage Sources to erase its saved sign-in, and delete widgets and custom sounds from their tabs.
Deleting the App removes everything it stored on your phone.
Deleting your data does not cancel a subscription; cancel it in the App Store. RevenueCat and Apple keep purchase records as their own policies and the law require. If you want us to delete emails you have sent us, write to contact@lunarapps.io with the subject "DashPal data deletion" and we will do so within 30 days.
The App is intended for people aged 13 and over, or 16 and over in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children below those ages. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Information stored by the App is protected by your phone's own security, such as your passcode and device encryption, and sign-in details are kept in the Keychain. Some home media servers only offer unencrypted connections on your local network; the App uses whatever connection your server provides. No app can be completely secure, and you are responsible for keeping your device secure.
Information on your phone stays there until you delete it in the App or delete the App. Emails you send us are kept for as long as needed to answer you.
Subscription checks go to RevenueCat, which is based in the United States. By using the App, you consent to that transfer.
If our company is acquired or merged, any information we hold may be transferred to the new owner, subject to this Privacy Policy.
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the App or in the law. If a change is significant, for example if the App starts storing information on a server, we will notify you in the App before it takes effect. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last updated.
This Privacy Policy and your use of the App are governed by the laws of the State of Texas and the United States of America, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
