The short version

We do not sell your data

SOS has no ads and does not sell or share your data with advertisers or data brokers.

Not medical advice

SOS is educational only. Ask a real doctor about medical decisions.

Not financial advice

Budget tools and money content are educational. Ask a licensed adviser about big decisions.

Not a crisis service

In an emergency call 911. In the US, call or text 988, or text HOME to 741741.

Who can read your data

The person who runs the server can technically read what is stored there. The Encrypted Vault is encrypted on your own device.

SOS does not use AI on your data

There is no AI coach in the app, and the app does not send anything you enter to an AI company. If that ever changes, we will say so first and ask you. Read the AI Disclosure.

Other services

A few features contact other services, such as weather and food databases. The full list.

Download and delete

Download much of your data and delete your account in Settings. Backups can keep a copy for up to 14 days.

Not for under 13

SOS is not designed for children under 13. You confirm you are 13 or older when you sign up, and SOS does not check. If you made a child profile in the Family area (new ones are switched off for now), the name, birthdate, avatar, saved settings and Kids Mode feelings check-ins are stored on SOS's servers, linked to your account. The saved settings are not applied anywhere in the app. The finance tools are for adults. Read section 12.
