Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

This Privacy Policy explains how 617SW, LLC("617SW," "we," "us," or "our") handles information in connection with LAN Sentry (the "App"), a WiFi scanner and network utility app for iPhone.

2. Summary

LAN Sentry is designed as a local-first network utility. Device scan results, network details, printer identification data, notes, tags, and app preferences are stored on your device unless you choose to export, share, or send information elsewhere.

3. Information the App Processes

• Local network device information such as IP addresses, hostnames, vendors, and MAC addresses when available;
• Network service signals such as Bonjour, mDNS, UPnP, SSDP, NetBIOS, SNMP, ports, and protocol responses;
• Printer-related details such as advertised printer services, device names, capabilities, and reachable ports;
• Diagnostic results such as ping, traceroute, DNS checks, speed tests, and security review findings;
• Local labels, notes, tags, scan history, device presence history, and app settings.

LAN Sentry does not operate an account system, and we do not receive your local scan inventory through our own servers unless you choose to include it in a support message or share it through another service.

4. Device Permissions

The App may request Local Network access and use network discovery capabilities to find devices and services on networks you are authorized to inspect. You can manage permissions in iOS Settings.

5. Third-Party Services

The App may use third-party services for network diagnostics, IP information, purchase validation, entitlement management, crash diagnostics, and App Store distribution. These services may include Apple, RevenueCat, ipapi.co, and Cloudflare speed test endpoints. Their handling of information is governed by their own policies.

6. Support Communications

If you contact us for support, we may receive your email address, message contents, screenshots, diagnostics, and any information you choose to include. Please avoid sending sensitive network details unless they are necessary for support.

7. Sharing and Exports

If you export, share, message, email, save, or open information from the App in another app or service, that action is controlled by you and may be handled by Apple or the selected third party.

8. Data Retention and Deletion

Local app data remains on your device until you delete it in the App where available, clear saved information, or uninstall the App. Support emails may be retained as needed to respond to requests, maintain business records, and comply with legal obligations.

9. Children's Privacy

LAN Sentry is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

10. Changes and Contact

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date above. Questions can be sent through our contact form.
