Privacy Policy

A. Information You Provide

When you use the Service, you may submit:

• Text descriptions, URLs, or listings
• Screenshots, images, or files
• Messages or conversations related to suspected scams
• Feedback, labels, or votes
• Contact information (such as email, if provided)

You choose what information to submit and are responsible for ensuring you have the right to share it.

B. Automatically Collected

We may automatically collect limited technical data:

• IP address
• Device type and browser
• Usage activity and interaction logs
• Timestamps and performance metrics

This information is used for security, analytics, and system improvement.

C. Mobile Application Data

With your permission, the mobile app may access:

• Camera. Scan screenshots, documents, and messages for scam detection. Images are processed for analysis and are not stored on our servers after scoring.
• Photo library. Select and analyze screenshots or images. We access only images you explicitly select or share, not your entire library.
• Push notifications. Deliver trial expiration reminders, weekly threat digests, and scan results. Disable anytime in device settings.
• Background app refresh. Periodically check for new screenshots with potential scam content. Disable in device settings.
• Device identifiers. Anonymous identifiers for crash reporting and analytics. Not linked to your identity unless you create an account.

Revoke any permission at any time through your device settings. Revoking may limit certain features.

D. Browser Extension Data

• Page content analysis. Text from web pages, emails, and messages is sent to our servers for scam scoring. We analyze content for risk signals but do not permanently store full text of scanned pages.
• Breach check. If you use the breach check feature, your email address is sent to our servers to check against known breach databases. You can clear this data at any time from extension settings.
• Usage analytics. Anonymous usage data (scans performed, features used) to improve the service. Opt out in extension settings.

We use collected information to:

• Provide and operate the Service
• Generate risk assessments, scores, or classifications
• Improve, train, test, and refine our models and systems
• Conduct internal research, analysis, and quality assurance
• Monitor misuse, abuse, or malicious activity
• Communicate with users regarding the Service
• Comply with legal obligations

By submitting content, you grant suss a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual license to use submitted content for:

• Operating the Service
• Improving and training machine learning models
• Developing derived insights, signals, and analytics
• Creating anonymized or aggregated datasets

Anonymization & Aggregation

We may remove or obscure personally identifiable information, aggregate submissions across users, and generate derived data that does not identify any individual.

Derived data, models, weights, heuristics, and outputs are the exclusive property of suss.

You acknowledge that you do not retain rights to the models or derived outputs, no compensation is owed for model training or improvements, and model behavior may evolve over time.

• You retain ownership of your original submitted content.
• You grant suss the rights described above to use that content.
• All models, algorithms, scoring systems, outputs, aggregated insights, improvements, and derivatives are owned exclusively by suss.

Nothing in this Privacy Policy transfers ownership of suss intellectual property to users.

We may share information:

• With service providers who assist in operating the Service, under confidentiality obligations
• If required by law, legal process, or governmental request
• To protect the rights, safety, or security of suss, users, or the public
• In connection with a corporate transaction such as financing or acquisition

Any shared data is limited to what is reasonably necessary.

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect information. No system is perfectly secure.

You acknowledge that submissions are made at your own risk, we cannot guarantee absolute security, and you are responsible for protecting your own devices and credentials.

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide and improve the Service, maintain system integrity, comply with legal obligations, and protect against abuse or misuse.

We may retain anonymized or aggregated data indefinitely.

Upon account deletion, we will delete your personal data within 30 days. Anonymized or aggregated data that cannot identify you may be retained.

You agree not to submit content you do not have rights to share, false or misleading information, or content that violates applicable laws or third-party rights.

suss is not responsible for the accuracy, legality, or consequences of user-submitted content.

The Service is not intended for individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors.
