Privacy Policy

1. Our Privacy Commitment

SEO Auditor is built with privacy as a core principle. We believe your data belongs to you, and we've designed our app to ensure it stays that way.

2. Data We Don't Collect

Unlike many apps, SEO Auditor does not collect:

• Personal information (name, email, phone number)
• Device identifiers or fingerprints
• Location data
• Usage analytics or behavioural data
• Crash reports with personal data
• The URLs you analyse
• Your audit results or reports

3. Data Stored on Your Device

SEO Auditor stores the following data locally on your device:

3.1 Audit History

Your SEO audit results are stored locally so you can track improvements over time. This data never leaves your device unless you explicitly export it.

3.2 Settings and Preferences

Your app preferences (scan depth, API keys, etc.) are stored locally using iOS secure storage.

3.3 iCloud Sync (Optional)

If you enable iCloud sync, your audit history is synced across your Apple devices using Apple's iCloud infrastructure. This data is:

• Encrypted in transit and at rest by Apple
• Only accessible to you via your Apple ID
• Subject to Apple's privacy policy
• Deletable at any time from your iCloud settings

4. Third-Party Services

SEO Auditor may connect to the following third-party services when you use specific features:

4.1 Google PageSpeed Insights API

When you analyse Core Web Vitals, the app sends the URL you're analysing to Google's PageSpeed Insights API. This is:

• Only triggered when you explicitly request a PageSpeed analysis
• Subject to Google's privacy policy
• A public API that doesn't require authentication

4.2 OpenAI API (Optional)

If you provide your own OpenAI API key for AI-enhanced analysis:

• Page content may be sent to OpenAI for analysis
• Your API key is stored securely on your device
• This feature is entirely optional
• Subject to OpenAI's privacy policy

4.3 Website Crawling

When you audit a website, SEO Auditor fetches publicly available web pages directly from your device. This is similar to how a web browser works — the website owner may see requests from your IP address in their server logs.

5. Data Security

We implement the following security measures:

• Local Storage: All data is stored using iOS secure storage mechanisms
• No Server: We don't operate servers that could be compromised
• HTTPS Only: All network requests use encrypted HTTPS connections
• API Key Protection: Any API keys you enter are stored in the iOS Keychain

6. Your Rights (GDPR)

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the following rights:

6.1 Right to Access

All your data is stored locally on your device. You can access it directly within the app.

6.2 Right to Rectification

You can edit or update your data directly in the app.

6.3 Right to Erasure

You can delete all app data by:

• Using the "Clear History" option in Settings
• Deleting the app from your device
• Removing iCloud data from your Apple ID settings

6.4 Right to Data Portability

You can export your audit data in multiple formats (PDF, CSV, JSON, HTML) at any time.

6.5 Right to Object

Since we don't process your data, there's nothing to object to. You're in complete control.

7. Children's Privacy

SEO Auditor is not directed at children under 13. We don't knowingly collect any data from children. Since we don't collect data from anyone, this is inherently satisfied.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by:

• Posting the new policy on this page
• Updating the "Last Updated" date
• Notifying you via the app (for significant changes)
