Privacy Policy
Privacy Policy
Wifi Monitor collects information about you when you install and use our mobile applications and through your other interactions and communications with us. This Privacy Policy applies to anyone anywhere in the world who uses our App or otherwise interacts or communicates with us. If at any time you do not agree to this policy, you must refrain from installing our app, or, if you have already installed our app, please do not use it and delete it. By installing or using our app, you agree to our collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
The main function of our app is to crowdsource information about WiFi hotspots from our users and make this information available to our users to help them find and access hotspots.
Therefore, we collect the geographic locations of hotspots, as well as the names and addresses of the premises where they are located. For each hotspot, we collect its router IP (remote IP) address, BSSID, SSID, password protection status, and (if applicable) password. By uploading a hotspot password through our App, you represent and warrant to us that you are the owner of the hotspot, or have been authorized by the hotspot owner to upload the password through our App. If you are not the owner of a hotspot, and you have not been authorized by the hotspot owner to upload the password through our App, you are not allowed to upload the password of the hotspot. We also collect information about WiFi signal strength, horizontal and vertical accuracy, speed test information, captive portal mode, and when your mobile device is connected to a specific hotspot.
The hotspot data we collect is made available to our other users through our application.
We also collect information about users and their mobile devices and networks. When you install and use our App, we collect (a) your email address, (b) your Google, Facebook or other social network data (to the extent available), (c) ) your age range, (d) your country, language and time zone, (e) the make, model, operating system, resolution, device ID, advertising ID and MAC address of your mobile device (if applicable), (f) ) name of your mobile operator and speed test information about mobile network performance and (g) other applications installed on your mobile device. When our app is installed on your mobile device, we regularly track your precise geographic location, whether or not you use our app. When you use our app, we collect your search query, including the cities and places you search for.
We may use the information collected to:
Provide, maintain and improve our Services, develop new features and send product updates and administrative information;
Perform internal operations, including troubleshooting, data analysis, testing and research;
To send you or recommend advertisements and other communications that we think will be of interest to you, and to otherwise personalize our services.
To opt out of the use of the personal information we collect about you for advertising purposes, please contact us at ml3339879@gmail.com to request that we not use your personal information for advertising purposes and we will honor the request.
We do not knowingly collect or store personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13 unless permitted by law. By installing or using our app, you represent and warrant to us that you are at least 13 years old. If we become aware that we have received personally identifiable information from a person under the age of 13, we will use reasonable efforts to delete that information from our records.
We may share information we collect, including WiFi hotspot information and user information, including personally identifiable information, with third parties under license or other arrangements. These third parties may use this information for research and commercial purposes, including advertising and mobile web and hotspot performance testing. Without limiting the generality of this paragraph, additional information about the information we share with certain third-party partners is set out below.
We may also share the information we collect:
with our affiliates for development, data processing, storage and logistics purposes;
In response to a request for information from a competent authority if we believe the disclosure is in compliance with or required by any applicable law, regulation or legal process;
Communicate with law enforcement, government authorities or other third parties if we believe your conduct is inconsistent with our terms of use or policies, or to protect the rights, property or safety of others;
in connection with or during negotiations of any merger, asset sale, merger, reorganization, financing or acquisition of all or part of our business;
if we notify you otherwise and you agree to share;

WiFi VPN data collection
When you use our VPN service
We only retain the following data related to your account:
Total bytes transferred in 30 days.
The timestamp of your last activity on our VPN network.
This data is used to enforce free tier restrictions, prevent abuse, and clear inactive accounts.
The following data are not stored:
Websites you have visited
History of VPN sessions
When you are actively connected to the server
During the connection, the following are stored in the server's memory.
When you disconnect, this data is immediately discarded:
connection time
amount of data transferred
The following data are stored in a central location:
The number of concurrent connections at any given time to prevent rampant abuse and account sharing.
Our custom system completely eliminates the need to store data. This data only resides in the server's memory while you are connected and is discarded by the VPN server as soon as you disconnect. Since it's not logged into a permanent database, there's nothing to delete.
when you register
We only require a username and password when you sign up for our services. Email is available if you would like to be able to retrieve your password if you forget it and to receive regular service updates.
delete your information
User data request
Since we store the bare minimum for customers to actually use our services, any request for user data will not yield any value. Since we don't store any historical logs about who used which IP address, and since IPs are shared by tens/hundreds of people at any given moment, we cannot tie any activity to a specific account.
We may change this policy from time to time by posting an updated version of this policy on our website or through our application. Your continued use of our application after any such update will constitute your consent to the changes. We encourage you to periodically review this policy for the latest information on our privacy practices.
