This policy doesn’t apply to UK & EU users. Please refer to the Privacy Policy (EU & UK Customers) in the footer if you are based in one of those regions.

1. Introduction

ClarityScanner (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes the information processing practices of ClarityScanner on the ClarityScanner.com website and all its subdomains (collectively, the “Site”).

This Privacy Policy is only applicable to the Site and not to any other websites that you may be able to access from the Site, each of which may have data collection, storage, and use practices and policies that may differ materially from this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy also describes our practices regarding limited retention of certain outputs and logs (including, where enabled, a “Reports History” / “Cached Reports” feature that allows users to re-open prior results), as further described below.

2. Information Collection Practices

Types of Information Collected

We collect several different types of information about you (collectively, “Personal Information”):

  • User Information — Contact Data (name, mailing address, email address); Financial Data (account or credit card number); Demographic Data (zip code, age).

  • Publicly Available Information — names and aliases; addresses (current and past); phone numbers; email addresses; social media profiles; age and date of birth; gender; marital status; employment information; education history; public records (court records, property records, etc.).
  • Cached Report Output (Reports History) — copies of report outputs you generate, retained temporarily and associated with your account so you can re-open them without re-running the same search. Cached Reports may contain personal information from publicly available and licensed sources, are not publicly displayed, indexed, or searchable, and are accessible only to the authenticated account that generated them.
  • Limited security, audit, and fraud-prevention logs (timestamps, IP address, device identifiers, and event logs), subject to retention limits.
