Privacy Policy — Social Search
Overview
Social Search helps you send a search, a username or a hashtag to the networks you choose. It has no account and no servers of its own, and we do not collect or sell personal data.
Your searches
What you type stays on your iPhone until you tap a network. The app then opens that network (in its app or an in-app browser) with your search, and that network's privacy policy applies from there.
For short topic searches, the app asks Wikipedia for a summary (Quick facts). Wikipedia receives the search words, not who you are.
Voice search
Voice search uses Apple's speech recognition. On iPhones that support it, recognition happens entirely on the device; otherwise Apple processes the audio under its own privacy policy. Audio is never sent to us.
Your library, pins and settings
Recent and pinned searches, saved links and your settings are stored only on your device, shared between the app, its widgets and its Share extension. When you save a link, the app fetches its title and picture from that link's website, the same way Messages shows link previews. Nothing is uploaded to us, and everything is deleted when you delete the app.
Advertising (Google AdMob)
The free app shows ads from Google AdMob on its own screens only — never on top of search results. Ads are non-personalised, and the app never asks to track you across other companies' apps and websites. To serve and measure ads, Google may process device information under Google's advertising policies.
Where the law requires it (for example in the EEA and UK), Google's consent form appears before any ads, and you can change your choice at any time in Settings › Privacy Choices.
Third-party content
The networks and websites you open run independently and have their own privacy policies. We do not control their content.
Children
The app is not directed at children and opens unrestricted websites.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update this page and the date above.
