Overview

This is a personal, self-hosted integration between Home Assistant and Google Nest. It is not offered as a public service.

Information accessed

With authorization from the Google account owner, the application accesses supported Nest thermostat information, including temperature, operating mode, device status, and temperature setpoints.

How information is used

Information is used to monitor and control the authorized thermostat and execute smart-home automations.

Data sharing

Data is not sold to advertisers or provided to unrelated third parties. Information is exchanged with Google services as needed for thermostat integration.
