Wiseguard / About

Privacy that does the work.

Wiseguard was built on a simple complaint: every privacy tool tells you how exposed you are, and almost none of them do anything about it.

Why we built it

Reports don't remove anything.

The first version of Wiseguard was a spreadsheet. One of us had been getting eleven spam calls a day after refinancing a house, tracked down where the number had leaked, and started filing opt-outs by hand. It took four months, and the listings came back inside a year.

The work was mechanical, repetitive, and impossible to keep up with manually. That is exactly the kind of work software should be doing.

Three things we won't do.

A privacy company that monetises data is a contradiction. These are the constraints the business is built inside.

We don't sell data

Not aggregated, not anonymised, not to partners. Subscriptions are the only revenue line in the business.

No exceptions

We don't keep what we don't need

Scan inputs are hashed for matching and dropped. Transcripts are yours to delete, and deletion is real.

Retention by default: none

We don't lock you in

Cancel in one click, export everything, and keep the removal confirmations. Annual plans are refunded pro rata.

30-day refund

Raw identifiers stored

Scan inputs are hashed for matching, then dropped. Nothing is kept to sell.

How the company makes money.

One line: subscriptions. It matters enough to say plainly.

Do you have investors who expect a data business?

No. Wiseguard is funded by its subscribers and a small seed round whose terms do not permit data licensing. The people who pay us are the people we work for.

What happens to my information during a scan?

Identifiers are hashed before matching so the raw value is never stored. Match results are kept only as long as they are needed to file and confirm a removal, then dropped.

Who has access to my call transcripts?

You do. Support can access a single transcript only when you open a ticket about it and grant access from inside the app; that grant expires in seven days and is logged.

Where is the service hosted?

US regions, on SOC 2 audited infrastructure, with encryption at rest and in transit. Sub-processors are listed in the privacy policy and change only with notice.

Built to act, not to report
