VIGILWEB · PRIVACY

Vigilweb Privacy Policy

Vigilweb is provided by Pie Mobile Apps, LLC. Contact: support@piemobileapps.com.

Information used by the app

Vigilweb stores the website names and URLs you add, monitoring settings, check results and timestamps, and alert delivery history on your device. URLs can contain sensitive information; avoid including secrets in them. If you configure optional remote alerts, the app also stores the provider settings, sender and recipient details, and credentials on the device. Credentials and remote-alert settings are encrypted using Android Keystore. Android backup is disabled for the app.

Network requests and service providers

To check a website, Vigilweb sends requests from your device to the URLs you configure and follows permitted redirects. Those sites and network providers may receive your IP address and request information under their own policies. HTTP URLs are not encrypted in transit.

If you enable SMS or email, the app sends alert contents and relevant sender, recipient, and authentication information directly to your chosen Twilio or SMTP provider. The provider processes those messages under its own terms and privacy policy, and may charge for use. Vigilweb does not use a Pie Mobile Apps monitoring backend or require a Vigilweb account. The app does not include analytics or advertising SDKs.

Retention and deletion

Monitor settings remain on the device until changed or deleted. Check history is pruned after 30 days during monitoring; deleting a website removes its history. Terminal remote-alert delivery records are pruned after 30 days during monitoring; pending deliveries may remain until resolved or cancelled. Resetting alert settings removes stored alert credentials and cancels pending remote alerts. Uninstalling the app removes its local data. Records held by websites and alert providers are subject to those parties' policies.

Security and contact

The app uses Android's private app storage and encrypts saved remote-alert settings with an Android Keystore key. The app uses TLS for SMTP and platform certificate validation for HTTPS; users may intentionally monitor unencrypted HTTP endpoints. No method of storage or transmission is perfectly secure.
