Paranoia — Who's Watching You

About

Paranoia gives you a Paranoia Rating for the companies and apps you already use - a 0-100 number, higher meaning more private, produced by a published, weighted rubric you can read in full inside the app. Every rating is our editorial opinion, not a legal or regulatory finding. Every claim behind a rating links to a primary source, and every ownership chain is free to open, on every file. Look up a company or app to see: - Its full file: how it collects, shares, and secures your data - Every claim, sourced and linked - free - Who owns it: the ultimate parent and every subsidiary on file - free - A 0-100 Paranoia Rating, letter grade, and the five pillar ratings behind it - free - Why it's rated that way, in writing, for every pillar - free - Recommended alternatives, where they exist, with Paranoia Plus Also in the app: CITY, a full map of ALPR cameras and city surveillance programs near you. A free FOR YOU carousel on Home surfaces companies tied to what you already watch, alongside a Recently Added rail of the newest files. Every card opens the file behind it. What you see is the same catalog everyone sees; nothing is personalized to you. Open privacy and data class action settlements show on Home and in a full list: the 10 closing soonest are free for everyone, and every open settlement is available with Paranoia Plus. Each shows who may be eligible, the claim deadline, a link to the official claim site, and the source behind every case. Browse instantly, even offline. Paranoia ships with a bundled data snapshot and syncs updates quietly in the background. Watch companies to track them and share a company's file card with anyone. Paranoia Plus is an optional auto-renewable subscription, available annually or monthly. It unlocks best-for-you picks from the privacy lens you set during onboarding, recommended alternatives on every company page, every open settlement, settlement alerts for companies you watch, and unlimited alerts - everyone gets 3 alert slots for free, and Plus removes that cap. The Top Rated category lists (every category ranked from the highest Paranoia Rating down) are free for everyone. Payment is charged to your Apple ID; the subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends, and can be managed in your Apple ID subscription settings. Data comes from public and licensed sources - companies' own policies and disclosures, App Store privacy labels, ToS;DR (CC BY-SA), PrivacySpy (CC BY), Privacy Guides (www.privacyguides.org, CC BY-SA), Wikidata (CC0), SEC and FTC filings, state regulator records, Have I Been Pwned, and self-run Blacklight scans. Never a purchased dataset. You can use Paranoia without signing in: browse, search, open every file, watch companies and turn on alerts right away. Sign in with Apple, Google, or a passwordless email link any time to sync your watchlist and alert picks across devices and keep Paranoia Plus with your account. There are still no ads and no purchased datasets. Ad measurement and product analytics are optional; switch them off any time in Profile. Watching a company or official stores a push token and the entities you watch on our server once notifications are enabled, not linked to your identity unless you sign in.. Entries saved before this update, or left listed after a lapsed Plus subscription trimmed your watches back to three, stay device-local until you tap the eye to watch them fully. Subscriptions are processed by Apple; purchase data is handled as described in our App Privacy answers and privacy policy.
