Privacy policy
Private by design.
Naptara turns two phones (iPhone, iPad or Android) into a baby monitor. It has no advertising, no Naptara account and no continuous cloud recording. This policy explains exactly what the app processes and why.
Effective date: 8 September 2026 · Publisher: Tim Grootes, trading as Bumblly
The short version
- Live camera and microphone media is transmitted for monitoring and is not continuously stored by Naptara.
- Timeline events and settings stay on your device unless information must be shared with the paired device.
- Optional product analytics is off until an adult explicitly opts in.
- Naptara contains no advertising SDK, cross-app tracking or face recognition.
Data Naptara processes
| Data | Why it is used | Storage and sharing |
|---|---|---|
| Live video and audio | To let the Parent Monitor see and hear the Baby Station and use two-way talk. | Sent directly between paired devices when possible, or through an encrypted remote media session. Naptara does not continuously record or archive this media. |
| Pairing code, room and session media key | To connect the two devices for remote monitoring. | Processed temporarily by the Naptara pairing service for session continuity. Expired sessions are removed. Codes and keys are not included in product analytics. |
| Timeline events | To show possible crying, movement, connection and monitoring moments. | Event type, date and level are stored locally on the device, with a maximum of 500 events. Relevant event information may be sent to the paired device. No continuous media is attached. |
| Settings and selected role | To remember preferences and whether the device is used as Baby Station or Parent Monitor. | Stored locally on the device. |
| Purchase entitlement | To unlock and restore Naptara Pro. | On iPhone and iPad, processed by Apple through StoreKit. On Android, processed by Google Play Billing. Naptara receives entitlement status, not your payment-card details. |
| Google Play Billing diagnostics (Android) | To diagnose purchase API and service-connection errors and improve the Billing Library. | The Google Play Billing SDK may send technical usage and error diagnostics to Google when it connects. This built-in SDK logging is separate from Naptara’s optional first-party product analytics. See Google’s Billing documentation and Google’s Privacy Policy. |
| Diagnostics you choose to share | To help investigate a support issue. | Generated only on request and sent only through the share destination selected by you. |
Optional product analytics
Naptara asks an adult for permission before sending first-party product analytics. The choice can be changed under Privacy & safety. Declining does not reduce monitoring functionality.
When enabled, allowlisted events may include app and feature use, pairing outcome, connection reliability, first live connection, reconnect outcome, Early Stir feedback, paywall source, purchase outcome, review-prompt eligibility, app version, operating-system version, device class, role, language, store or system country, and transport type.
A random installation identifier and a temporary session identifier are included to calculate unique-install counts, reliability funnels and repeated-failure rates. They are not advertising identifiers, are not linked to a name, email address or Naptara account, and are not used across other companies' apps or websites.
For App Store installs, optional analytics may also include Apple Ads campaign attribution, such as campaign, ad-group, keyword and ad identifiers, to understand which campaigns lead to app use.
Analytics never includes audio, video, snapshots, baby or caregiver names, pairing codes, session media keys, advertising identifiers or the contents of monitoring sessions. Accepted reports are converted to aggregate counters. The installation and session identifiers are converted to keyed hashes before they are saved for unique counts. The analytics store does not retain raw event rows or the original identifiers.
Permissions
- Camera: Baby Station video.
- Microphone: baby audio and two-way talk.
- Local network: finding and connecting devices on the same Wi-Fi network.
- Notifications: optional local monitoring alerts.
Permissions are requested when the related feature is selected and can be changed in iOS Settings or Android settings.
Retention, deletion and security
You can clear the local timeline from inside Naptara. Removing the app removes its local app data. Product analytics keeps aggregate counters and pseudonymous keys for unique-install and session counts. These keys can link usage within Naptara, but are not mapped to a name, email address or Naptara account. The analytics store keeps its most recent 180 daily summaries; this limit is applied as new reports arrive. For privacy questions or requests, contact privacy@bumblly.com.
Remote media uses session-specific encrypted transport. The service is configured not to log pairing codes, media keys or media content. An IP address may be used transiently in server memory for security and rate limiting, but is not stored in the product-analytics aggregate.
Naptara is intended for use by adult caregivers. It is not a medical device and does not replace responsible adult supervision or certified medical equipment.
Service providers and international processing
Apple processes App Store purchases under Apple's own terms. Google processes Google Play purchases under Google Play's terms. Remote monitoring uses LiveKit-based real-time media infrastructure operated for Naptara. Depending on where you use the app, encrypted network traffic may be routed across countries in order to provide the connection.
Naptara does not sell personal data and does not share data with advertising networks.
Android and Google Play
Update dated: 30 August 2026
Naptara is also available on Android via Google Play. The same privacy rules apply: no advertising, no Naptara account and no continuous cloud recording. Pro purchases on Android are handled by Google Play Billing. Naptara receives entitlement status, not your payment-card details. Camera, microphone, notifications and nearby-device or local-network permissions can be changed in Android settings. This update does not change how iPhone and iPad purchases are processed by Apple StoreKit.
