Security

Who can see my data?

Your home, your data. Here's how access actually works.

By default, only you. Nothing about your home is visible to other Homvio users unless you share it.

People you share with

Members you invite to a home can view and update its items; guests can view but can't change anything. A property manager's team members join as members.

People you share with from Access Sharing, or through a share link, can view only what you shared — the whole home or specific items — until the share expires or you revoke it.

Realtors you give access to (property menu → Grant Access) can view the home, or view and edit it if you chose Edit. A realtor who transferred a home to you may also have stayed connected to it. You can remove either one anytime.

Nobody you share with can see your other homes, or personal details beyond your name and email.

Public links and documents

Only a home's owner can create a public link to it, such as a realtor's QR code — and turn it off again, which stops the link and any printed codes from working. Anyone with the link can see the home's name, address, description, and photo, and its items with their details and service history. It lists your documents' names, but not the files.

Documents you upload are stored privately and open through secure links that expire after a few minutes — only for you and people you've shared the item with through Access Sharing. Home documents, such as an inspection report, open the same way for your household and people you've shared the whole home with.

For how we store and protect your data, and which companies process it on our behalf, see our Privacy Policy.
