Privacy Policy for BellXS
Last updated: December 23, 2025
At BellXS, your privacy and data security are our top priorities. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our mobile application and services.
By using BellXS, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.
1. Information We Collect
a. Bluetooth Data
BellXS uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to detect and communicate with compatible locks nearby. During operation, the app collects:
-
Device names and identifiers (e.g., MAC addresses of locks)
-
Signal strength (RSSI) for proximity detection
-
Communication logs between your device and the lock (encrypted)
Note: We do not collect or store personal information from the locks themselves. All communication is secure and encrypted.
b. User Account Information
If you create an account or log in to BellXS, we may collect:
-
Name
-
Email address
-
Authentication data (e.g., hashed passwords)
c. Location Data (Optional)
To improve Bluetooth scanning performance, BellXS may request location permissions. However, we do not track or store your location. This permission is strictly required by your device’s operating system for BLE functionality.
d. Usage Data
We collect anonymous analytics to improve app performance and user experience, such as:
-
App version
-
Device type
-
Crash reports
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected data to:
-
Enable secure communication between your mobile device and BellXS locks.

Authenticate users and manage access permissions.

Improve app performance, troubleshoot issues, and enhance user experience.
We never sell your personal data or share it with third parties for marketing purposes.
3. Data Security
Your data security is critical to us. We use industry-standard encryption for all communication between your device and locks, as well as for storing sensitive information (like authentication data).
BLE Communication Security:
-
End-to-end encryption during device pairing and communication.
-
Challenge-response authentication for lock operations.
4. Third-Party Services
We may use trusted third-party services to help us operate and improve BellXS, such as:
-
Crash reporting tools (e.g., Firebase Crashlytics)
-
Analytics platforms (aggregated, anonymized)
These services are compliant with relevant data protection laws.

You have the right to:
-
Access the personal data we hold about you.

Request correction or deletion of your data.
