Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 30, 2026

Home Field is operated by Farmen Capital, LLC ("Farmen Capital," "we," "us"). Home Field builds nine apps for Ring users: Home Field Vault, which automatically backs up your Ring motion and doorbell clips to cloud storage that you own (Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Dropbox, Box, pCloud, or an S3-compatible bucket); Home Field Coyote Cam, which identifies coyotes, bears, bobcats, deer and other animals on your cameras and alerts you to the ones you choose; Home Field Big Screen, which shows your Ring cameras live on your television; Home Field Relay, which turns Ring doorbell presses, motion, and offline cameras into text messages and phone calls to the people you choose; Home Field Sensors, which does the same for the Ring sensors you share, such as a flood sensor, a freezer's temperature sensor, or a door's contact sensor; Home Field Uptime, which tells you when a Ring camera goes offline and keeps each camera's uptime history; Home Field Gate Log, which keeps a log of the vehicles, people, packages, and doorbell presses your Ring cameras report, with a snapshot of each, and can watch for things you describe; and Home Field Time Lapse, which saves a still picture from a Ring camera you pick on a schedule and turns those pictures into a time lapse video; and Home Field Porch, which tells you when a package lands on your porch and when it leaves. Time Lapse is also included free for Vault members, as Vault's Projects feature. This policy explains what we access, what we do with it, and what we never do. We collect as little as possible.

AI and human review

How long we keep data

We keep the minimal metadata described above only while your account is active. The record of how you use the apps is kept for 400 days and deleted with your account. When you disconnect or delete your account, that metadata is deleted immediately (within seconds) and our access to your storage is removed: we revoke our Google, Dropbox, and Box access, and we delete your OneDrive or pCloud tokens or storage access key. Vault backups never store your video. A Claim Kit report you create, with its video files, stills, and AI descriptions, is kept until you delete it or remove Vault, and is deleted with your account. Your clips live only in your own storage, for as long as you keep them there. If you turn on Clip cleanup in Settings, Home Field deletes its own clips older than the period you choose, or its oldest clips when your storage is full. It is off unless you turn it on, it never deletes anything Home Field did not create, and on Google Drive it keeps any clip you star. Coyote Cam keeps the snapshot and clip of each confirmed sighting until you delete the sighting or your account; snapshots that do not contain an animal you chose to be alerted about are discarded immediately and never stored. Big Screen stores no video at all; for each television you pair we keep only a name you can see and a hashed access token, removed the moment you unpair the TV or disconnect the app. Relay keeps each alert record and its snapshot while Relay is connected, and deletes them when you disconnect Relay or delete your account. Snapshots are stored privately and shown only through links that expire after 5 minutes. Relay's alert timing records are deleted automatically after 30 days. When you disconnect Relay, we also delete your alert rules, escalation order, webhooks, settings, device records, and Ring access tokens. Your contacts and their consent records are deleted at the same time, unless another Home Field app that alerts the same contacts is still connected, in which case they are deleted when that app is disconnected too. Raw event notifications from Ring are deleted automatically 30 days after we receive them. Sensors keeps each alert record and any door snapshot while Sensors is connected, and raw sensor events are deleted automatically 90 days after we receive them. When you disconnect Sensors, we delete its sensor events, device records, alert rules, alerts, snapshots, and Ring access tokens; contacts are handled the same way as for Relay. Uptime keeps each camera's outage history for 90 days and deletes older outages automatically; when you disconnect Uptime, we delete its outage history, camera status, settings, alerts, device records, and Ring access tokens. Gate Log keeps log entries, their snapshots, and their AI watch matches for 90 days and deletes older ones automatically, along with raw event notifications older than 90 days; when you disconnect Gate Log, we delete every entry, snapshot, AI watch, match, setting, alert, escalation order, device record, and Ring access token, and contacts are handled the same way as for Relay. Time Lapse keeps each project's stills, videos, rough sunrise-to-sunset location, and chosen corner art while the project runs, and for 90 days after it ends, then deletes the project with all of them and every share link automatically. Create with AI drafts you did not pick are deleted within two days. Deleting a project deletes all of that at once. When you disconnect Time Lapse, we delete all its projects, stills, videos, share links, and Ring access tokens; when you disconnect Vault, we do the same for Vault's Projects. Porch keeps each package and its stills for 30 days and each check for 90 days, then deletes them automatically; when you disconnect Porch, we delete every package, still, check, setting, alert, device record, and Ring access token.

Third parties we use (sub-processors)

We share the minimum data needed to run the service with the providers below, and with no one else. We do not sell or share your data for advertising.

Text message (SMS and MMS) alerts

Home Field can optionally send you text messages, for example security and wildlife detection alerts from your own cameras (with a link to view the clip, and sometimes the snapshot photo or a short clip as an MMS, or as an RCS card on phones that support it), notices about your account such as Vault not reaching your storage, an evening summary if you turn it on, and sign-in codes. Texts are sent only if you opt in by entering your mobile number in the app's Settings and confirming it with a verification code. You can reply to an alert text to manage your alerts, for example right or wrong to tell us whether a detection was right, got it, snooze, or pause, resume, or undo; we read your reply only to carry it out and answer you, and we keep it with that alert. Message frequency varies with activity on your cameras. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP at any time to unsubscribe, or HELP for help; you can also turn off text alerts in Settings. The full program terms are in our Terms.

Relay, Sensors, and Gate Log alerts to people you add: Relay, Sensors, and Gate Log can also send alert texts and place alert phone calls to the contacts you add. Each contact receives one invite text naming you and the app, and receives no alerts until they accept. On the invite page they choose texts only, or texts and automated calls. A contact who accepts by replying YES gets texts only. Alerts can reach US and Canadian (+1) numbers only. Any contact can reply STOP at any time to stop all texts, and can hang up on any call.

Contacts you add: Add only people who have agreed to hear from you. You are responsible for having their permission to give us their name and phone number. Their numbers are used only to deliver your alerts, and they can opt out at any time by replying STOP or by asking us at support@homefield.tv.

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties. Every kind of sharing described elsewhere in this policy excludes your mobile number and your text message opt-in data and consent. The only exception is Twilio, listed above, which delivers our texts and calls on our behalf and uses your number only to deliver them. Your phone number is used solely to deliver the messages described above.

Your privacy rights

Your data and deletion

Security

Access tokens and storage access keys are encrypted with AES-256 before storage. We follow the security and data-handling requirements of the Ring Appstore developer program.

Children

Home Field is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their information.

Changes

If we change this policy, we will update the date above and, for material changes, notify you by email. That includes changes to our AI capabilities — new detection features, meaningful changes in accuracy, or any change in how snapshots are analyzed.
