Privacy Policy

FraudScope ("the app") is a personal safety tool published by VanDien.io LLC ("we," "us," "our"). FraudScope analyzes suspicious texts, emails, screenshots, and links to help you identify scam attempts and attacker intent. All analysis runs on your iPhone. This policy explains what the app does, and does not do, with your information.

# 00_SUMMARY

# 01_INFORMATION_WE_COLLECT

None. FraudScope has no user accounts, no sign-in, no analytics SDKs, no advertising identifiers, and no crash-reporting service. VanDien.io LLC does not collect, receive, transmit, or store any data from your use of the app.

# 02_HOW_THE_APP_ACCESSES_YOUR_CONTENT

FraudScope only processes content you explicitly submit: text you paste, screenshots you share, links you enter, or files you forward as PDFs. This processing happens entirely on your iPhone. When you use the iOS Share Sheet to send content to FraudScope, the app receives only the content of that share. It does not read your broader messages, contacts, call history, or any other app's data.

# 03_WHERE_YOUR_DATA_IS_STORED

All data the app generates is stored locally on your device only:

• Analysis history (risk scores and intent summaries, not original message content unless Full-Content History is enabled in Settings) is stored in encrypted local storage on your iPhone.
• Full-Content History (extracted text from your submitted content) is opt-in and stored encrypted on-device. It is never included in iCloud Backup.
• Reports or summaries shared via "Share with Trusted Person" contain only the risk summary and guidance, never the original message content.

None of the above is ever sent to VanDien.io LLC or any other party.

# 04_NETWORK_USE

FraudScope does not require an internet connection to analyze messages, score risk, or reconstruct attacker intent. The analysis engine is bundled with the app.

The only network activity is the optional, user-initiated "Inspect URL" feature:

• When you tap "Inspect URL" on a link found in a message, FraudScope contacts that link's destination to check where it redirects, how old the domain is, and whether its TLS certificate is valid.
• The app shows you a clear disclosure before making any network request. You can decline.
• This network call goes to the inspected URL or domain only, not to VanDien.io LLC or any intermediary.
• FraudScope does not send your message content, risk score, or any other data to us when you use this feature.

# 05_APPLE_INTELLIGENCE

Settings include an optional "On-Device AI Enhancement" toggle. When enabled, FraudScope uses Apple Intelligence (where available on your device and with the model downloaded) to enrich analysis summaries. This processing happens on your device using Apple's private compute infrastructure. VanDien.io LLC does not receive any data from this process. See Apple's privacy documentation for information about Apple Intelligence.

# 06_DATA_RETENTION_AND_DELETION

Because all data stays on your device, you are in full control. You can clear analysis history from within the app's History screen. You can remove all stored data by deleting the app. Your Apple device's local encrypted storage is managed by iOS.

# 07_THIRD_PARTY_COMPONENTS

FraudScope uses bundled Apple frameworks and open-source libraries that run on your device. These components do not transmit your data off the device. The URL inspection feature contacts the inspected URL or domain directly. No intermediary server is involved.

# 08_CHILDRENS_PRIVACY

FraudScope is a personal safety tool not directed at children and collects no personal information from anyone.

# 09_CHANGES_TO_THIS_POLICY

If we change this policy, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Any change that introduces new data handling will be communicated through an in-app notice or App Store release notes before it takes effect.

# 10_CONTACT

# 11_ABOUT_THIS_WEBSITE

The sections above describe the FraudScope iPhone app. This note covers only the vandien.io website you are reading now, which is separate from the app. The website uses Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-6CH2F9LCB7) and Google Ads conversion tracking (conversion ID AW-18147278244) to measure aggregate traffic. The FraudScope app itself contains no analytics or web-tracking code of any kind. You can opt out of website analytics with the official Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or by blocking analytics scripts in your browser. Doing so has no effect on the app.
