Privacy Policy

Swept collects minimal data by design:

- Spam reports: When you report a number, we store the phone number and category (spam/scam/telemarketing). We do not store your identity, device ID, or any personal information alongside reports.
- Waitlist email: If you sign up for our waitlist, we store your email address and preferred language.
- No contacts: We never access, upload, or store your contact list.
- No call logs: We never access or store your call history.
- No analytics: We do not use third-party analytics, tracking SDKs, or cookies.

Swept uses Apple's CallKit Call Directory Extension. The app downloads a database of known spam numbers and institution numbers to your device. All call matching happens locally on your iPhone. We never see incoming calls, caller IDs, or any call metadata.

- Spam protection: Legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f)) — protecting users from unwanted calls.
- Waitlist: Consent (Article 6(1)(a)) — you provide your email voluntarily.
- Spam reports: Legitimate interest — improving the spam database for all users.

All data is stored on Cloudflare infrastructure within the European Union. We use encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest. No data is transferred outside the EU.

Under GDPR, you have the right to:

- Access: Request a copy of any data we hold about you.
- Erasure: Request deletion of your data (waitlist email, spam reports).
- Rectification: Request correction of inaccurate data.
- Object: Object to processing based on legitimate interest.
- Portability: Receive your data in a portable format.

To exercise these rights, email us at privacy@swe.pt.

- Waitlist emails: Retained until you unsubscribe or the waitlist closes.
- Spam reports: Retained as long as the number remains in our database. Numbers can be challenged and removed (see Dispute Process).
- On-device data: The blocklist database on your device is deleted when you uninstall the app.

If your phone number has been incorrectly flagged as spam, you can request removal by emailing disputes@swe.pt with the number and proof of ownership. We will review and respond within 30 days.

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Significant changes will be communicated via the app.
