Privacy & GDPR

Private by design.
Compliant by default.

Here's exactly how we handle your data — in plain English.

Our principles

Five promises we build around

📉

Data minimisation

We only store what the service needs. No selling data — ever.

🇬🇧

UK/EU data only

All data stored in europe-west servers. Never leaves GDPR jurisdiction.

🎭

Masked by default

Your real phone number is never shown to anyone who scans.

🗑️

Delete anytime

One button erases your account and all data.

🔍

Full transparency

Your scan log shows every access. What we know, you know.

🧒

No tracking, no ads

No advertising trackers, no third-party analytics.

The data map

What we store — and what we refuse to

Your contact route

Phone/WhatsApp preference. Encrypted, editable, deletable.

Vehicle label

A nickname like "Blue Corsa". No reg plate required.

Scan events

Date, time, rough area. Auto-deleted after 12 months.

Account email

For login and receipts only. Never sold.

Scanner identity

We don't require the scanner to share who they are.

Live GPS tracking

Photos or video

No camera capture. Third-party privacy intact.

Payment on scan

The scan page never asks for money. Ever.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR, you can always…

  • Access — request a copy of everything we hold
  • Rectify — correct any detail in your dashboard
  • Erase — delete your account ("right to be forgotten")
  • Restrict & object — limit how we process your data
  • Portability — export your data in machine-readable format

Zero payment requests

A genuine TapReach page never asks for money or card details.
