HotspotCheck Privacy Policy

Last updated: 17 June 2026

HotspotCheck (“the app”) is an educational Wi-Fi safety advisor. It checks visible safety indicators on the network you are connected to. It is not a security guarantee or professional audit service.

Who we are

The app is published by Random Mini Apps. See the developer website for support.

Data processed on your device

• Wi-Fi name and security details: Shown where iOS allows, typically after you grant location permission while using the app.
• Local network discovery: When you start a scan, the app may discover visible devices and services on the Wi-Fi you are using (Bonjour/mDNS and read-only UPnP/SSDP discovery).
• DNS and connectivity probes: User-initiated checks against well-known test endpoints to assess reachability and visible risk indicators.
• Scan reports: Stored locally on your iPhone when you enable history. You can delete reports from Settings.

What we do not do

• No analytics SDK or third-party advertising.
• No developer-operated backend for scan data.
• No upload of SSIDs, IP addresses, device names, or scan history to our servers.
• No hidden or background network scanning.

Purchases

In-app purchases are processed by Apple through StoreKit. We do not receive your payment card details.

Exports

If you export or share a report, you choose where that file goes. Exported content is under your control.

Children

The app is intended for general audiences learning about Wi-Fi safety. Users who need parental consent in their region should use the app with a guardian as appropriate.
