Privacy policy
This privacy policy covers both the Content Checker website at contentchecker.uk and the Content Checker app for iOS and macOS.
What we collect
Nothing. Content Checker does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data — whether you use the website or the app.
Your content
On the website: when you check your content, the text is sent to the server for processing and immediately discarded. Nothing is stored, logged, or saved on the server. No database is used. No files are written. Your content exists only in memory for the fraction of a second it takes to check it, then it is gone.
In the app: all checking happens entirely on your device. Your content never leaves your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Nothing is sent to any server.
Settings
On the website: your preference for including department-specific rules is saved in your browser's local storage only. This data never leaves your device.
In the app: your settings are stored locally on your device using standard app storage. They are not transmitted anywhere.
Cookies
The Content Checker website does not use cookies. The app does not use cookies.
Analytics
Content Checker does not use any analytics or tracking scripts, on the website or in the app. We have no idea who you are, what you check, or how often you use it. That's by design.
Third parties
Content Checker does not share data with any third parties, because there is no data to share. The app does not include any third-party SDKs, analytics frameworks, or advertising libraries.
