Privacy

Skopia, by Seraf Inc., has no account, no server and no analytics. Seraf Inc. never receives anything from your copy of the app. This page says what that means precisely, and what does leave the device.

Last updated 27 September 2026

What we collect

Nothing. There is no sign-up, no identifier, no crash reporting and no telemetry of any kind. The app is free and there is no advertising SDK in it. We have no way to tell whether you have ever opened it.

What stays on your device

Everything the app produces. Scan results, the devices found on your network, the Bluetooth advertisements it heard, the sites and domains you added and every finding are written to the app's own private storage and never leave the device. Uninstalling deletes all of it, and Settings can clear the history without uninstalling.

What leaves your device

Only what the check you asked for requires, and only to the host being checked:

• Your local network. The WiFi sweep opens TCP connections to addresses on the network you are already joined to. These never leave your LAN.
• Sites you add yourself. Fetched over HTTPS to read the certificate, redirects and headers. The request goes to your site and nowhere else.
• DNS lookups, through Cloudflare's public DNS-over-HTTPS service at cloudflare-dns.com, which sees the name being looked up.
• Domain records, through the public RDAP service at rdap.org, which sees the domain being looked up.

Bluetooth is receive-only: the app listens for advertisements and never connects, pairs or transmits.

There is no request to any server operated by Seraf Inc., because there is no such server.

Permissions, and why

• Location — Android puts the WiFi network's name, its BSSID and its gateway address behind location permission. The app uses it only to read those three, so it can tell one network from another. It does not read GPS, does not track you and does not store a position. Bluetooth scanning is declared neverForLocation.
• Nearby devices — to receive Bluetooth advertisements.
• WiFi state — to see which network you are on and sweep it.
• Notifications — only if you turn on background checks: to tell you when a site you saved stops or starts answering. The checks run on the phone, about every 15 minutes, and send nothing to us.
• Internet — for the site, DNS and domain checks above.

On iPhone

The iPhone app makes the same requests and keeps everything in its own private storage. It asks for fewer permissions:

• Local Network — to find the devices on the Wi-Fi you are connected to and check them for open services.
• Location — iOS shows an app the name of your Wi-Fi only with location permission. The app uses it for that name alone; it does not read GPS, does not track you and does not store a position.
• Bluetooth — to receive Bluetooth advertisements. It never connects, pairs or writes.

It does not run in the background and does not send notifications.

On Linux

The Linux build makes the same requests as the Android app. Its data stays in your home folder: raqib.sqlite in your Documents folder and ~/.local/share/tech.seraf.raqib/. The installer at https://skopia.sh downloads the app from Seraf Inc.'s public package registry on GitLab, checks its SHA-256, and sends nothing about you or your machine.

Children

This is a network tool for adults. It is not directed at children and collects nothing from anyone.

Payment

The app is free and has nothing to buy. If paid features are ever added, they will be sold through Google Play, and this policy will say so before they ship.

Changes and contact

If this policy ever changes, the date above changes with it. Questions: [email protected], Seraf Inc., Canada.
