Welcome to WiFiTool Scanner App. We value your trust and are committed to safeguarding your privacy and personal data. This Privacy Policy describes how WiFiTool ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, discloses, and protects information obtained from users ("you") of our Scanner App (the "App").
By installing, accessing, or using WiFiTool Scanner App, you acknowledge and accept the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
WiFiTool Scanner App is designed to help users analyze nearby Wi-Fi networks, measure signal strength, monitor connectivity, and optimize network performance. While we prioritize providing reliable functionality, we also recognize the importance of handling your data responsibly.
This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have regarding your personal data.
We collect different types of information to ensure smooth functionality of the App and to improve user experience. This information falls into two categories: personal information and non-personal (technical) information.
We do not require users to create an account or provide personal data to use most features of the WiFiTool Scanner App. However, if you choose to contact us for support, subscribe to updates, or participate in feedback activities, we may collect the following:
Name
Email address
Contact information
Support communication contents
We collect personal data only when voluntarily provided by the user.
To ensure proper functioning of the App and provide diagnostics and analytics, we may collect the following data automatically:
Device model and manufacturer
Operating system and version
IP address (may be anonymized)
Network SSID and BSSID (locally processed only)
Signal strength and channel usage
Location data (used for Wi-Fi scanning functionality; not stored or shared)
Time and frequency of app usage
Crash logs and performance data
Note: The App may request access to location services solely to function correctly on Android and iOS devices due to system permissions required to access Wi-Fi information. We do not collect, store, or share your precise GPS location.
WiFiTool Scanner App uses the collected information for the following purposes:
To enable core features of the App such as network scanning and signal analysis
To improve the functionality and performance of the App
To troubleshoot bugs or crashes and ensure application stability
To provide user support and respond to inquiries
To analyze anonymized trends and user behavior
To comply with legal obligations or protect rights and safety
All scanning results, Wi-Fi network information, and signal analysis data are processed locally on your device. We do not store, transmit, or upload your scanned data to our servers unless you explicitly choose to share a report or send logs to our support team.
Personal data provided voluntarily (e.g., via support) is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill your request.
Crash logs and analytics data are anonymized and retained solely for diagnostics and improvement.
We periodically delete old data that is no longer necessary.
WiFiTool Scanner App does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties.
We may share anonymized or aggregated data that cannot be used to identify individuals for the following reasons:
With trusted third-party analytics providers (e.g., Google Firebase) to understand app usage and improve performance
With our customer support tools if you contact us for help
When required by law or to respond to legal processes
To protect the rights, safety, or property of WiFiTool, users, or the public
We may use the following third-party services:
Google Firebase / Crashlytics – for crash reporting and analytics
Google Play Services – for compatibility and device authentication
Apple Analytics (if on iOS) – for performance and bug tracking
These services may collect anonymous diagnostic data. We ensure that any data shared is minimal, encrypted in transit, and not personally identifiable.
You can choose to opt-out of analytics by modifying settings in your mobile device (e.g., “Limit Ad Tracking” or “Opt Out of Analytics”).
WiFiTool Scanner App requests the following permissions:
Location Access (Android & iOS) – Required to access Wi-Fi scanning features due to platform requirements. We do not track or store your GPS location.
Wi-Fi State & Network State Access – To read available Wi-Fi networks and signal information
Internet Access – For crash reporting, support contact, and updates
All permissions are used solely to provide the App’s core functionalities and are not misused.
We take data protection seriously and implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your information. These include:
Data encryption in transit (HTTPS/SSL)
Strict access control to support systems
Regular audits of our data handling practices
Minimization of data collection to the essentials only
Despite our efforts, no system is 100% secure. We encourage users to also take precautions, such as using strong passwords and keeping their operating system up to date.
WiFiTool Scanner App is not intended for children under the age of 13 (or equivalent age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
If we learn that we have collected data from a child without verified parental consent, we will delete it as soon as possible. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at [Insert Support Email].
While our App is available globally, we ensure that all collected data is processed in compliance with international data protection laws including:
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)
Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)
If data is transferred across borders, we ensure adequate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent legal mechanisms.
Depending on your location and applicable laws, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
The right to access or request a copy of your personal information
The right to request correction or deletion of your information
The right to object to or limit the processing of your data
The right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in technology, regulations, or our services. When we make changes, we will revise the "Last Updated" date and notify you through the App or on our website, as required by law.
