Privacy Policy
JunkArmor · Last updated: November 9, 2026
In short: JunkArmor works on your device. Texts are checked on your device as they arrive and are never uploaded or stored. Your block list, filters, contacts and calendar stay on your device. We don't require an account and we don't show ads in the App. We use the Meta (Facebook) SDK to measure our advertising, and we use your advertising identifier only if you allow it.
This Privacy Policy explains how [SELLER NAME] ("we", "us", "our") handles information when you use the JunkArmor app, its message filter and call blocking extensions (the "App") and our website. We are the data controller for the limited personal data described below.
1. What stays on your device
The following data is processed only on your device. We cannot see it, and it is not sent to us or to anyone else:
| Feature | How it works |
|---|---|
| Text filtering | When an SMS or MMS arrives from a sender who is not in your contacts, iOS passes the sender and the text to the App's message filter on your device. The filter decides whether the message goes to Junk, Promotions or Transactions and then discards it. Messages are not stored, not counted and not uploaded. The App cannot read your message history. |
| Your filters | Blocked words and the senders you always allow are stored on your device. |
| Call blocking | The App gives iOS a list of numbers to block: known robocall numbers and the numbers you add. iOS applies the list itself. The App does not see your call history, and iOS does not tell the App which calls were blocked. |
| Link checks | Links are checked against a list stored in the App. Your recent checks are saved only on your device. |
| Contacts cleanup | With your permission, the App reads your contacts on your device to find duplicates and empty cards. The backup the App saves before merging or deleting stays on your device. |
| Calendar cleanup | With your permission, the App reads your calendar events on your device to find suspicious invitations and old events. |
| Protection check | Reads whether call blocking is on, your iOS version and whether a passcode is set. It does not access your passcode or biometric data. |
The list of known robocall numbers is built from publicly available consumer complaint reports. It does not contain any data about you.
2. Data we may collect
- Purchases. Payments are processed by Apple through the App Store. We do not receive your name, payment card or Apple ID. The App checks your purchases with Apple to unlock Premium features and restore them on a new device.
- Advertising measurement (Meta SDK). The App includes the Meta (Facebook) SDK, provided by Meta Platforms, Inc. It sends Meta app events such as app install, app launch, start of a free trial and purchase (product and price), together with device information (device model, iOS version, app version), IP address and country. We use this to understand which of our ads lead to installs and purchases. If you allow tracking in the iOS "Allow Tracking" prompt, the SDK also receives your device's advertising identifier (IDFA). If you don't allow it, the IDFA is not shared, and Meta may receive limited, aggregated data through Apple's privacy-preserving measurement. The Meta SDK never receives your messages, call history, block list, filters, contacts or calendar.
- Support. If you email us or use the contact form on our website, we receive your name, email address, your message and the country your request came from, and use them only to answer you.
We do not use any other advertising or analytics SDKs.
We do not collect your messages, call history, block list, filters, contacts or calendar.
3. Why we use data (legal bases)
- To provide Premium features you purchased — performance of a contract.
- To answer support requests — performance of a contract and our legitimate interest in helping users.
- To measure the performance of our ads with Meta — your consent where required (for the advertising identifier, through the iOS "Allow Tracking" prompt), otherwise our legitimate interest in measuring our marketing in aggregate.
We do not sell your personal data. We share the limited app event and device data described above with Meta for ad measurement. If you live in a U.S. state that treats this as "sharing" for targeted advertising, you can opt out by choosing "Ask App Not to Track" in iOS (Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking) or by contacting us.
4. Sharing
We share data only with service providers that help us run the App, under contracts that require them to protect it, or when required by law. Our service providers are Meta Platforms, Inc. (ad measurement, United States; see Meta's Privacy Policy) and Cloudflare, Inc. (hosting of our website, contact form and support email; see Cloudflare's Privacy Policy).
5. Permissions
- Contacts — to find duplicate and empty contacts and to save a backup before changes.
- Calendars — to find suspicious invitations and old events.
- Message filtering and call blocking — you turn these on yourself in iOS Settings. You can turn them off there at any time.
- Allow Tracking — iOS asks whether the App may share your advertising identifier with Meta for ad measurement. The App works the same whether you allow it or not.
The App works without these permissions, except for the related features.
6. Retention
On-device data stays on your device until you delete it or delete the App. Support messages are kept for up to 24 months. Data received by Meta is kept under Meta's own retention policy. Purchase records are kept as long as required for accounting and legal purposes.
7. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example, in the EU, UK or California), you may have the right to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of your personal data, to object to or restrict its processing, and to complain to your local data protection authority. To use these rights, email us at the address below. Because we don't link data to an account, we may ask for details that help us find your request.
8. Children
The App is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 where local law requires), and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them.
9. Security
We keep data processing on your device wherever possible and use reasonable measures to protect any data we receive.
10. International transfers
If our service providers process data outside your country, we make sure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.
11. Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy. We will change the date above and, for material changes, notify you in the App.
12. Contact
Questions or requests: support@junkarmor.app or our contact form.
