Your answers stay with you

Last updated 31 October 2026. Saboot is built to help you without collecting your personal story.

In short

  • 🔒
    Your answers stay on your phone or computer. They are never sent to us. Voice and non-English searches are turned into text by Google and not stored.
  • 🚫
    No account, no sign-up, no ads, and no tracking cookies.
  • 📊
    We count anonymous things — like which guides are used — to make Saboot better.
  • 🗑️
    Delete everything any time with one tap: Delete all.

1What stays on your device

Your answers, ticks, notes and timeline live only in your browser while you use Saboot. If you switch on “Save my list on this phone”, they are kept in your browser’s local storage until you delete them. Delete all removes them immediately.

Pages you print or save as PDF are created on your device.

To ask once whether Saboot helped, your phone remembers which guide you last used and when (nothing else). Delete all removes it. Reminders you add go only to your own calendar or WhatsApp.

2What we count, anonymously

To improve the guides we count events such as “a list was made for the cheque-bounce guide”, which language was used, which helpline number was tapped, and which page someone left from.

  • We never receive your answers, notes, names, dates or documents.
  • We do not store IP addresses. Unique visitors are counted with a code that changes every day, so no one can be followed over time.
  • To keep the numbers honest, each visit gets a short-lived signed code from our server, and we note whether there was a real tap or keypress (not what was tapped). This lets us ignore fake or automated traffic. The code contains nothing about you.
  • As an independent check on our own numbers, Vercel Web Analytics also counts page views. It uses no cookies and does not identify you.
  • Daily counts are deleted after 400 days.

4Translation

If you choose a language other than English, the app’s own text — never your answers — may be sent to a translation service (Google Gemini) to show it in your language. Translations are saved on your device and on our server so the next person gets them instantly.

5Voice and searches in other languages

If you tap the microphone, or type your problem in a language other than English, what you said or typed is sent through our server to Google Gemini only to turn it into text and a short English meaning, so we can find the right guide. In English, your browser’s own speech service (for example Google in Chrome) may be used instead. We do not store the recording or the text, and it is not linked to you. Your answers to the questions are never sent. If you prefer, just type in English or tap a situation.

6Mistakes you report

If you use Report a mistake, we receive the guide, the type of problem and what you wrote, with numbers removed. Please don’t include personal details.

7Your choices

  • Use Saboot without saving anything — nothing is kept after you close the page.
  • Tap Delete all to remove a saved list.
  • If your browser sends “Do Not Track”, nothing is counted.

8Changes to this page

If we change how Saboot handles information, we will update this page and the date at the top.
