Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-09-30
Draft — to be reviewed before the app is published.
WardOff is an iPhone app that helps you judge whether a message you received is a scam. This policy explains what happens to the information involved. The short version: WardOff only sees the messages you choose to check, keeps no message content on its own servers, and doesn’t track you.
The messages you check
WardOff never reads your messages, mail, or SMS in the background. It only analyses text you paste into the app or explicitly share to it.
To analyse a message, its text is sent over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection to TypeSafe, which provides Jev, the AI model that performs the analysis. TypeSafe processes the text to return the assessment; how TypeSafe handles that data is governed by TypeSafe’s own privacy policy.
WardOff does not store message text, links, or results on any server it operates, and message text is never written to logs, analytics, or crash reports.
What stays on your iPhone
Your history of past checks (the message text and its result) is stored only on your device, encrypted with AES-256 using a key held in the iOS Keychain. You can delete all of it at any time in Settings › Delete all history.
To apply the free and daily limits, the app keeps simple usage counters (how many checks you’ve made and on which day) in the iOS Keychain. They contain no message content and are not sent anywhere. Keychain data can remain on the device after the app is deleted, so reinstalling doesn’t reset the free allowance.
Purchases
WardOff Premium is an auto-renewable subscription sold through Apple’s App Store. Apple handles payment; WardOff never sees your payment details. The app checks your subscription status with Apple’s StoreKit to unlock Premium. You can manage or cancel the subscription in your App Store account settings.
What WardOff doesn’t do
No accounts or sign-in, no advertising, no tracking across apps or websites, and no analytics or crash-reporting SDKs. WardOff doesn’t sell or share your data with anyone other than as described above.
Children
WardOff is not directed at children and does not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes
If this policy changes — for example if WardOff adds sign-in — this page will be updated and the date above will change before the new version of the app is released.
