What is a privacy policy?

A privacy policy is a legal document that explains how a company collects, uses, stores, and shares your personal information. Every website and app that collects user data is required by law to have one.

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They remember your login info, preferences, and track your activity across sites.

What is a tracking pixel?

A tracking pixel (or web beacon) is a tiny, invisible image embedded in websites or emails. When it loads, it tells the company you opened the email or visited the page, often tracking your device and location.

FAQ - Your Questions About Privacy Monitoring

How often do you check for updates?

Every day. If a service updates their privacy policy, you'll know within 24 hours.

How do you read privacy policies?

We use automated monitoring to catch changes the moment they happen, then our team reviews them to make sure we got it right. We translate everything into clear language so you know exactly what changed.

What if I disagree with an alert?

We want to get this right. If you think we misread a policy or flagged something incorrectly, you can report it directly from the alert.

Our team will review your feedback, investigate the policy again, and update the alert if needed. We'll let you know what we found.

You can also adjust your boundaries anytime. Maybe something you marked as a Dealbreaker isn't so bad after all. Your boundaries, your choice.

Do you monitor everything automatically?

You choose which services to monitor. We don't automatically add anything without your permission.

Once you add a service and set your boundaries, we monitor it continuously. Daily checks, no action needed from you.

What happens if a service crosses my Dealbreaker?

We send you an immediate alert explaining exactly what changed and why it crossed your boundary.

What you do next is up to you, but we make it easier. We'll link you directly to the service's privacy settings so you can see your options. If the service doesn't offer any opt-outs or privacy controls for that specific issue, we'll let you know that too.

From there, you can delete the app, adjust what you're comfortable with, or keep using it knowing exactly what changed.

Can I monitor services that aren't on your list?

Absolutely. We love hearing from our users because it helps us understand what services matter most to you.

If we don't support a service yet, you can request it directly from your dashboard. We'll review the service, add it to our monitoring system, and update you when it's ready to track.

We're adding new services every week based on user requests, so your feedback actually shapes what we build.

Can't I just use ChatGPT to do this myself?

You could, but here's what that actually looks like:

Copy-paste every privacy policy for every service you use (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Gmail, Netflix, Spotify...)
Do this again every time one of them updates. How do you even know when they update?
Remember to check all of them regularly. Every week? Every month? How often is enough?
Compare each new version to what you remember from last time
Figure out if the changes actually matter to you or if it's just legal rewording
Keep track of which services have crossed your line and which haven't

That's hours of work every month, and you'll still miss changes unless you're checking constantly.

bndries does all of that automatically. We monitor daily, track changes over time, compare them against your specific boundaries, and only alert you when something actually crosses your line. You set your boundaries once and we handle the rest.

You may be wondering...

Set your boundaries. We'll handle the rest.
