Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 17, 2026

Aegis is built to filter your internet, not to watch it. This policy explains what little we collect, what stays on your device, and what the browser extension does. Short version: your browsing stays yours.

What we collect

• Your email address, used to create your account and sign you in.
• Your subscription status (active, canceled, and the renewal date), synced from Stripe so the app knows whether to unlock.

That is the full list. We do not collect names, browsing history, page content, usage analytics, or advertising identifiers.

What stays on your device

• All app settings, including social media schedules and limits.
• Your parental mode password, stored only as a salted hash. We could not read it even if we wanted to.
• The activity log (counts of blocked items). It never leaves your PC.
• The site block list. When you turn on site blocking, Aegis edits the Windows hosts file on your computer so blocked sites stop loading. This is a change to a system file on your own device, nothing is sent anywhere, and turning blocking off or uninstalling removes it.

The browser extension

The extension reads the pages you visit locally, inside your browser, to find AI labels and hide matching content. Page content is never sent to our servers or anyone else. The extension talks only to the Aegis app on your own computer, to sync your settings and report a count of hidden items for your dashboard.

Payments

Payments are processed by Stripe. Your card details, and the billing name Stripe asks for at checkout, go directly to Stripe and never touch our servers. Stripe shares with us only your subscription status. See Stripe's privacy policy for how they handle payment data.

This website

The website uses no analytics, no advertising trackers and no marketing cookies. When you sign in, a session token is stored in your browser so you stay signed in. That token stays in your browser and is only used to talk to our account service.

Services we rely on

• Supabase hosts accounts and subscription status.
• Stripe processes payments and donations.

We do not sell or share your information with anyone else.

Deleting your data

Email us and we will delete your account and its data. Uninstalling the app removes all local data, and the uninstaller cleans up any system level blocks Aegis added.

Changes

If this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it, and meaningful changes will be called out on this page.
