Privacy Policy
What we collect, what we don't, and what we share — in plain language.
Last updated 2026-04-23
ASA ("the service", "we") exists to help you spot scams. This page explains the specific data we handle so you can make an informed choice about using the service.
Things we don't do
- We do not sell your data. No ad networks, no data brokers, no "partners" buying behavioral profiles.
- We do not use your data to train AI models. AI analyses are sent to Anthropic's API, processed, and discarded. We don't store the prompts or responses beyond the one-line summary in your check history.
- We do not store your passwords. The password health tool hashes your password locally with SHA-1, sends only the first 5 characters of the hash to Have I Been Pwned's range API ("k-anonymity"), and throws away the rest. Your actual password never leaves your browser.
- We do not share your monitored identifiers with anyone outside the third-party services listed below that are strictly needed to run a check.
What we collect
- Account (if you sign up): email address and, optionally, a display name and password hash, stored in Supabase.
- Check history (logged-in users only): a one-line summary of each check you run — the input value, the result, a risk score, and a timestamp. You can export or delete this at any time from your settings page.
- Monitored identifiers (logged-in users only): the email/phone/wallet values you opt to monitor, stored only on your profile row. Removing them deletes them.
- Alerts: when a monitored identifier appears in new threat reports, we log the alert against your account so you can see the history. Deleting your account wipes these.
- Cookies: we set cookies only for authentication session management (via Supabase). No third-party ad/analytics cookies.
Third-party services we call
Each of these receives only the specific data needed to run your check — nothing more, nothing linked back to your account.
- Google Safe Browsing — receives the URL you're checking.
- VirusTotal — receives the URL you're checking.
- WhoisXML — receives the domain you're checking.
- Twilio Lookup — receives the phone number you're checking.
- Have I Been Pwned — receives only the first 5 characters of a SHA-1 hash of your password (k-anonymity range API).
- Anthropic (Claude) — receives the text/URL/image you submit for AI analysis. Anthropic's API does not retain content sent to it.
- Supabase — hosts our database and authentication. Your profile, check history, alerts, and session tokens live here.
- Cloudflare Workers — serves the website and routes API requests.
Your rights (GDPR / CCPA)
- Export: download a JSON dump of all your data from /settings → Your data.
- Delete: the same page has a "Delete my account" button that removes your auth record, profile, check history, and alerts. Cascade delete — no soft-delete shadow.
- Access / correction: your profile is displayed on the settings page; email us if you need anything changed that the UI doesn't expose.
How to reach us
Privacy questions, data requests, or complaints: email the address on the footer contact link. We aim to respond within 5 working days.
This policy is intentionally short. If we ever change something material — new third-party, new data category — we'll update this page and note it in the "Last updated" header.
