Safety & Security Information — DefenceNet.ai

DefenceNet.ai provides AI-powered phishing link detection designed to help users stay safer online. We take safety seriously and follow all guidelines.


1. How DefenceNet.ai Keeps You Safe

Our patented on-device AI is designed to protect you from:

  • Fake banking links
  • Malicious login pages
  • Fraudulent SMS (smishing) URLs
  • Scam websites impersonating brands
  • Phishing attempts embedded in emails
  • Links redirecting to harmful pages

When our extension detects a suspicious link, it displays a safety alert notifying you before you proceed.


2. On-Device Processing for Maximum Safety

To ensure the highest user safety and privacy:

  • All detection runs fully on-device
  • URLs are never uploaded to any server
  • No personal information is ever collected
  • No indicators of browsing habits are tracked
  • No analytics SDKs or trackers are used

Your sensitive information stays with you.


3. No Data Collection

DefenceNet.ai does not collect:

  • Account information
  • Personal identifiers
  • Messages or SMS content
  • Email information
  • Browsing history
  • Device identifiers
  • Location
  • IP address
  • URL logs

This ensures total privacy and compliance with Apple’s “minimum data access” and “local-only processing” principles.


4. Transparent App Behavior

DefenceNet.ai never:

  1. Intercepts webpage content
  2. Reads form inputs or passwords
  3. Modifies webpages
  4. Tracks you across sites
  5. Shares data with advertisers
  6. Sends URL or detection results off your device

The extension only accesses the active URL for the purpose of evaluating potential risk.


5. Safety Warnings & Accuracy

While our AI is highly advanced, it is not perfect.
You should always verify links manually when in doubt.

We may occasionally warn against safe sites or miss some malicious ones.

We recommend:

  • Staying alert
  • Avoiding suspicious messages
  • Not entering credentials on unfamiliar websites
  • Using multi-factor authentication where possible

6. Content Restrictions & User Conduct

You may not use DefenceNet.ai to:

  • Circumvent cybersecurity policies
  • Aid in illegal activity
  • Conduct harmful or fraudulent behavior
  • Misrepresent the capabilities of the app
  • Disable or bypass safety systems

Any misuse may result in restricted app functionality under Apple guidelines.


7. Reporting Safety Concerns

If you encounter unsafe content or suspicious behavior inside the app, report issues to:

support@defencenet.ai

We may release updates to improve detection accuracy and strengthen safety features.


8. Parental & Family Safety

The app does not contain:

  • Harmful content
  • Tracking
  • Ads
  • User-generated materials
  • Social or community interactions

It is safe for all age groups.

Because no personal data is collected, DefenceNet.ai is also suitable for family sharing and child use on managed devices.


9. Device-Level Security

For best protection:

  • Keep your device updated
  • Use secure passcodes
  • Enable Apple’s built-in anti-fraud warnings
  • Review suspicious emails/SMS before clicking links

DefenceNet.ai is one layer of protection—not a replacement for good security habits.


10. Safari Extension Safety Notices

Our extension will show risk notifications when:

  • A URL resembles a known phishing pattern
  • A site impersonates a brand
  • A link redirects to an unknown or suspicious domain
  • The domain contains harmful structures (e.g., double subdomains, encoded payloads)

You can choose to ignore the warning and proceed at your own risk.


11. Emergency Situations

If you believe you have been a victim of fraud:

  • Contact your bank immediately
  • Change your passwords
  • Enable multi-factor authentication
  • Report the phishing website to appropriate authorities
  • Consider resetting your device if compromised

DefenceNet.ai provides warnings, not recovery services.
