Dormer is an iPhone app from Altai Ventures LLC (“Altai”, “we”). It was called LandlordHours until version 2.2. This page says what the app does with your information. For this website, see the Altai privacy page.
There is no sign-up and no password. Dormer 2.2 has no sign-in screen. Earlier versions offered Sign in with Apple. That is gone.
When iCloud is on, Dormer saves your rentals, hours, notes and settings in your own iCloud private database. That is how your records reach your other devices. The data sits in your Apple account. Altai has no access to it and can’t read it.
When iCloud is off, your records stay on this iPhone.
You choose up to three photos from your library to attach to a record. Dormer sees only the ones you pick. They stay on the iPhone you added them on. They don’t sync to iCloud.
A PDF or CSV report is made on your iPhone. You choose where it goes.
If you allow it, Dormer reads event titles on your iPhone to suggest rental work, like a plumber visit. Nothing is saved until you confirm it. Your calendar is never sent to us or to anyone else.
Dormer listens only while you dictate a note. It does not save a recording. Dormer asks your iPhone to turn the speech into text on the device. If your iPhone or language can’t do that on the device, iOS may use Apple’s speech service instead, under Apple’s privacy terms. The text goes into your note. You check it before anything is saved.
When you type or say a note in Log time, Apple’s model on your iPhone reads it to fill in the form. If that model can’t, and you are on iOS 27 or later, Apple’s Private Cloud Compute may read the note instead. Apple runs Private Cloud Compute, and by Apple’s description it doesn’t keep your note. We don’t receive the note and we don’t store it. The same applies to text from a receipt, in any version of Dormer that reads receipts this way.
You can turn this off in Settings, under Auto-capture. Turning off Private Cloud Compute keeps every note on your iPhone. Turning off Apple’s model stops both.
When you search for a rental’s address, the text you type goes to Apple’s Maps search to find matches. Apple handles it under its own privacy terms.
If you allow notifications, Dormer sets reminders on your iPhone.
Dormer never asks for your location. It never reads your advertising ID. None of what follows is linked to your name, your email or your iCloud account, and none of it is used to track you.
Dormer sends simple events to PostHog, Inc. in the United States. For example: the app opened, a record was saved (and whether by timer, voice, calendar or typing), a report was shared, or the upgrade screen was shown. They carry fixed values and counts. They never carry your notes, rentals, addresses, names or photos.
Each install gets a random ID. PostHog is set to discard IP addresses. There is no screen recording. Dormer also asks PostHog whether a few features are switched on, so a feature can be turned off if it misbehaves.
To turn this off, go to Settings, Data and privacy, and switch off “Share anonymous usage stats”.
You buy Dormer Pro from Apple. Apple takes the payment. We never see your card. Dormer checks with Apple that you bought it. RevenueCat, Inc. also records purchases and whether Pro is active, tied to a random ID, so we can see how purchases are going. Switching off “Share anonymous usage stats” also stops this record. That takes effect the next time Dormer opens.
The PostHog toolkit in the app includes a crash reporter. It is not switched on. The app’s App Store privacy label lists crash and diagnostic data anyway, in case that changes.
“Contact support” opens a message in your own Mail app, addressed to [email protected]. You write it and you send it. We receive it only if you send it. We use it to answer you.
Go to Settings and choose “Delete all data”, then hold to confirm. It removes your rentals, records, photos, goal and filing details from this iPhone and from your iCloud. It can’t be undone.
If iCloud is off, or this iPhone is signed in to a different iCloud account, it can only delete from this iPhone. Delete on your other devices too, or they will offer to put the records back. Deleting the app from your iPhone does not remove the iCloud copy, so use “Delete all data” first.
The anonymous usage counts and purchase record are not linked to your name or email, so we can’t tell which ones are yours. Email us if you have a question about them.
We don’t sell your data. We don’t share it for advertising.
Dormer is for people who own rental property. It is not directed at children, and we don’t knowingly collect information from children.
