Your data,plainly.

What Waldo collects, why, who else touches it, and how to take it back. The legal version is further down, and it says the same thing in more words. The boundary is part of the product.

Draft. This page is being written and reviewed, and the legal policy below isn't final yet.

The shortversion.

You choose what Waldo connects to. Nothing connects on its own.

From email and messages, Waldo reads the pattern, never the words: volume, timing, urgency.

We never sell your data and never use it for ads.

We don't train AI models on your data.

You can see it, download it and delete it, any time.
