Privacy policy

What CarrierSwitcher collects on this site, why we keep IMEI in the clear, and what YouTube collects when you join.

Who we are

TODO_LEGAL_NAME operates this site. Contact: TODO_LEGAL_EMAIL. TODO: replace legal placeholders before launch.

What we collect

  • Intake answers: brand, country, carrier, IMEI
  • Session id stored in the browser
  • Hashed IP (when IP_HASH_SECRET is set) and user agent
  • Optional newsletter name and email
  • Event names such as form start and checkout view

IMEI

We store the IMEI in the clear so support can match a later question to the device you entered. IMEI is a device identifier. Do not submit a number for a phone you do not own.

IP addresses

We hash IPs with a server secret before storage. We do not keep the raw address in the database.

YouTube and Google

Membership checkout happens on YouTube. Google is the controller for that payment and account data. Read Google's privacy policy for that processing.

Analytics

Vercel Analytics loads only after cookie consent. See the cookie policy.

Retention

Intake rows stay until you ask us to delete them or we no longer need them for support or abuse review. Newsletter rows stay until you unsubscribe.

Your rights

Email TODO_LEGAL_EMAIL to access, correct, or delete data we hold. Say which email or IMEI you submitted.
