# The Adjuster Beta Privacy Policy

**Version: 2026-11-08.1**
**Effective Date: November 8, 2026**

WLAN Geeks LLC operates The Adjuster beta and reporting service. This beta
automatically sends reports after enrollment. Acceptance is required to
run it; declining or withdrawing closes or locks the beta.

## 1. Registration and enrollment

Downloads require email and acceptance of the beta requirements. Where
ChatGPT sign-in supplies email, the service uses that signed-in identity;
an unverified typed address is not represented as verified. Enrollment
records an installation identifier, app/agreement versions, acceptance
information, and reporting scopes.

The app stores a scoped reporting credential locally. The service stores
its hash, expiration, and revocation information. This credential is
separate from any future paid write-feature license.

## 2. Automatic diagnostic reports

When available from supported operations, reports can contain:

- App/build/platform information, timestamps, outcomes, usage counts,
  and diagnostic errors.
- Computer/OS information and available interface/driver inventory, such
  as port names, USB identifiers, adapter identity/firmware, and voltage.
- Requested/observed modules, addresses, OS and calibration identifiers,
  VINs and fault codes when read, and missing, negative, or malformed replies.
- Raw vehicle-bus frames, performance samples, and supported memory images
  generated by operations you run. Raw data may contain other identifiers
  or module contents not fully decoded.
- Feedback and optional contact details you deliberately provide.

Not every listed operation works on every module. Reports record unavailable
or failed operations rather than inventing results. After enrollment there
is no separate approval for each automatic report, capture, or supported
memory image generated in the app.

## 3. Boundaries and local storage

Automatic reporting does not search unrelated folders or include arbitrary
imported files, passwords, SSH keys, browser history, or unrelated research
archives. Files deliberately attached through a separate support workflow
are additional submitted data.

OS app-data directories hold settings, agreement/enrollment records, and a
bounded retry queue. Delivery, expiration, or limits can remove queued
copies. This is not a substitute for your own verified backups. Withdrawal
clears unsent reports and prevents beta operations until enrollment resumes.
An upload already in progress may finish; withdrawal cannot recall it.

## 4. Use and access

We investigate failures, compare interface/OS behavior, map compatibility,
research supported calibrations/options, improve The Adjuster, and contact
testers about reports or beta availability. Registration does not subscribe
you to unrelated marketing.

Reports are private and require owner-authorized support access. Hosting,
storage, and authentication providers process data to operate the service;
the current service uses ChatGPT/Sites authentication and Cloudflare-backed
storage. Network providers may process connection/IP information to deliver
and secure requests. The service also uses short-lived hashed connection
metadata to limit abusive enrollment requests; these rate-limit records do
not store the raw IP address.

The beta does not automatically forward reports to third-party AI analysis
services. Identifiable reports, email addresses, and uploaded images are
not published as public downloads. Technical findings without those
identifying records may be incorporated into code and documentation.

## 5. Retention and deletion

The service applies a 90-day report-retention window through request-triggered
cleanup. Reports expire from normal retrieval after that window; physical
removal occurs when cleanup runs, not at a guaranteed exact minute.
Enrollment, acceptance, and download records may remain as needed to
administer access, investigate abuse, or meet legal obligations. Local
offline reports may be removed sooner under queue limits.

Request access to or deletion of data linked to your tester email at
kevin@wlangeeks.com. We may verify the request. Withdrawal does not recall
delivered reports, so a separate deletion request may be needed. Legal
obligations or security investigations may limit deletion; we will explain
any applicable limitation.

## 6. Choice and changes

Participation is voluntary, but reporting is required for this beta.
Decline, withdraw, or stop using it if you do not want reports sent.
Temporary loss of connectivity queues reports rather than withdrawing
consent. Versioned terms and privacy text are available before acceptance
and in the app and website. Material changes require renewed acceptance.
The beta is intended for adults authorized to perform vehicle diagnostics,
not for children.
