Your screenshots never leave your phone. Text is extracted on-device using Apple's built-in Vision framework — no image is ever uploaded, stored, or transmitted anywhere, by us or anyone else. We also never see the words of any scan or chat message you send — see "What we do collect" below for the one, narrow exception (the text sent to generate your read, never stored afterward) and "Analytics" for what we do track instead.
Your scan history and chat conversations are stored locally on your device only — we never see or keep a copy of that content. Deleting it in Settings → Delete my data removes it immediately and permanently from your device.
To apply your plan's scan and message limits fairly, we keep a running count against your anonymous account identifier — how many reads and messages you've used and your subscription tier. This is usage counts only, never the content of any conversation you've scanned. Settings → Delete my data doesn't remove this, since it exists to enforce your plan's limits correctly rather than being personal content — if you'd like it deleted entirely (for example, if you stop using the app), contact us and we'll remove it; see Contact below.
We use PostHog to understand how the app is used — which screens get opened, whether a scan or chat message completed, whether a paywall led to a purchase, tied to the same anonymous account identifier used elsewhere. These events never include the text of a screenshot, a scan's headline or read, or the content of any chat message — only that an action happened, plus a small number of non-content details (such as which verdict band a scan landed in, or which plan was purchased and its price). We do not use any advertising SDKs, and we do not sell or share your data with anyone else, for any reason.
There are none. Ask Wisp works anonymously, tied only to your device.
Ask Wisp is not directed at, and must not be used by, anyone under 16.
If this policy changes, the date at the top will change with it. Continued use of the app after an update means you accept the revised policy.
Questions about this policy: hello@baxtlabs.com, or via Tell Wisp in the app's Settings.
