Privacy Policy

AC DEVELOPMENTS ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the AC DEVELOPMENTS Android application.

1. Application Information

App Name: AC DEVELOPMENTS

Support and Privacy Email: dev@acdevelopments.store

AC DEVELOPMENTS is an air-conditioning and HVAC service information and request-preparation application. It allows users to browse AC services, use informational planning tools, create local project plans, calculate preliminary estimates, and prepare service or support requests through an installed email application.

2. Information You May Provide

The app may allow you to enter the following information:

• Full name
• Email address
• Phone number, when voluntarily provided
• Building or property type
• City and state
• Service address
• Preferred service date or timeframe
• Preferred payment method
• Air-conditioning system details
• Approximate conditioned area
• Service descriptions, notes, and support messages
• Project plans, checklists, favorites, and estimate details

You provide this information voluntarily when creating a service request, preparing an email, saving a project, or contacting support.

3. How Information Is Collected

AC DEVELOPMENTS does not automatically submit service requests to an AC DEVELOPMENTS server.

Information entered in forms is used to:

• Display a request summary for your review
• Prepare an email with the recipient, subject, and message body filled in
• Save a basic request or project summary locally on your device
• Help you organize AC service requirements
• Support communication that you choose to initiate

You must manually review and send an email using Gmail or another compatible email application. The app does not send the email automatically.

4. Local Data Storage

The app may store the following information locally on your device:

• Favorite AC services
• Saved project plans
• Calculator or preliminary estimate results
• Prepared request summaries
• Onboarding and appearance preferences
• Basic app settings

This information may be stored using Android local storage technologies such as SharedPreferences.

Locally stored information remains on your device unless you delete it, clear the app's storage, or uninstall the app.

5. Email Requests and User-Initiated Data Sharing

When you choose to contact AC DEVELOPMENTS, the app opens Gmail or another compatible email application with request information prepared for you.

After the email application opens:

• You may review or edit the message
• You decide whether to send it
• Your email application and email provider process the message
• The email provider's own privacy policy and terms apply
• AC DEVELOPMENTS receives the information only after you send the email

Information included in the email may contain your name, email address, phone number, location details, service address, AC service requirements, selected payment preference, preferred timing, and other information you voluntarily provide.

6. How We Use Information

Information voluntarily sent to AC DEVELOPMENTS may be used to:

• Review AC or HVAC service inquiries
• Respond to quote requests
• Contact users about requested services
• Confirm service scope, availability, and timing
• Provide customer support
• Respond to privacy-related questions
• Maintain business and communication records
• Protect the app, users, and business from misuse
• Comply with applicable legal obligations

Submitting a request does not guarantee an appointment, technician availability, service completion time, equipment availability, final price, or response time.

7. Payment Information

AC DEVELOPMENTS does not provide an online payment gateway through the app.

The app does not collect or process:

• Credit card information
• Debit card information
• Bank account information
• Digital-wallet credentials
• Online payment authentication information

The app may allow users to record a non-binding offline payment preference, such as:

• Cash on delivery
• Payment at an office
• Payment at a material-pickup location

Actual payment arrangements are confirmed separately between the user and the business.

8. Preliminary Estimates and Informational Tools

The app may provide preliminary price ranges, BTU calculations, airflow estimates, room-area calculations, or other planning tools.

These results are informational only. They are not:

• Final quotations
• Contracts
• Guaranteed prices
• Professional inspections
• Engineering assessments
• Confirmed equipment recommendations
• Guarantees of service availability

Final AC service requirements and pricing depend on professional assessment, system condition, property details, equipment, materials, labor, location, and availability.

9. Internet Access and Remote Images

The app may use internet access to load AC service and informational images from external image-hosting sources.

When remote content is loaded, the external provider may automatically receive standard technical information, such as:

• Internet Protocol address
• Request date and time
• Device or browser-related request information
• The requested image or resource

AC DEVELOPMENTS does not control the privacy practices of external image-hosting or network-service providers. Their own privacy policies may apply.

10. Third-Party Applications and Services

The app may interact with third-party applications or services, including:

• Gmail or another installed email application
• Email service providers
• Google Play services
• Internet image-hosting providers
• Android operating-system services

Third-party services may process information under their own privacy policies and terms. AC DEVELOPMENTS is not responsible for the independent privacy practices of third-party applications or services.

The app does not sell personal information to third parties.

13. Data Retention

The app does not require users to create an account.

You may remove locally stored app information by:

• Deleting saved projects or requests inside the app where available
• Clearing the app's data from Android settings

To request deletion of personal information previously sent to AC DEVELOPMENTS, email dev@acdevelopments.store with the subject "Data Deletion Request – AC DEVELOPMENTS."

Please include enough information to identify the relevant request or communication. We may need to verify the request before processing it. Some records may be retained when required by law or for legitimate business, security, fraud-prevention, or dispute-resolution purposes.

The current app is not intended to require access to:

• Contacts
• Call logs
• SMS messages
• Microphone

If future app versions introduce new permissions or data practices, this Privacy Policy and the Google Play Data safety information will be updated as appropriate.
