Privacy Policy for AdSpamBlock

Last updated: November 6, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how WHATSTICKER APPS SRL a socio unico collects, uses and shares personal data when you use the mobile application AdSpamBlock (the “App”). It also contains sections for users in the European Union, the United States and Brazil. The App does not require an account.

1. Data controller

WHATSTICKER APPS SRL a socio unico, Via Ruggero di Lauria 12B, 20149 Milano (MI), Italy — VAT number and tax code 13822310960 (“we”, “us”, “our”).

Contact: [email protected], or Settings → Contact support inside the App.

2. How the VPN works and what stays on your device

To block ads, trackers and spam, the App installs a VPN configuration that runs only on your device. It sets a proxy on your device (127.0.0.1) that apps' web connections pass through, so that the App can read the domain name of each connection (for example ads.example.com) and block it when the domain is in a block list.

• Your traffic is not routed through our servers or any other server of ours: connections go directly from your device to the websites and apps you use.
• The App does not decrypt HTTPS connections and does not read the content of pages, messages or files.
• For each connection the App records, in a database on your device only: the domain name, the time, whether it was blocked or allowed and why, and, when available, the user-agent of the app that made it. This history is shown to you in the App. It is emptied every 24 hours (connection log) and deleted after at most 30 days (block history).
• Your allow list and block list are stored on your device.
• None of this data is sent to us or to third parties. Deleting the App deletes it.

3. Data we collect

Device type and model, operating system and App version, language and region, IP address (the App looks it up at launch through the ipify service and includes it in usage data), App opens, sessions and their duration, features used, screens viewed, crash and error logs, App-specific identifiers and, only if you allow tracking when the App asks, the advertising identifier (IDFA).

3.2 Purchases
