This Privacy Policy governs the operation of Splashbot Utilities ("the Service"), a suite of automated and manual OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) auditing tools provided as a service. For the purposes of the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA 2018), the data operator can be contacted directly via:
Splashbot Utilities operates on a Human-in-the-Loop (HitL) execution framework. No automated public searches or continuous tracking passes are conducted without manual verification and human execution.
The standard processing lifecycle for an OSINT Audit is strictly defined as follows:
Splashbot Utilities is engineered with an ephemeral-first, zero-retention architecture:
Close & Purge function inside the Discord channel.rm) to permanently scrub all raw tool outputs (including outputs generated by external scripts such as Maigret or Holehe) and PDF reports from the dedicated VPS file system.In the event that a "Serious Issue" arises during service delivery—defined specifically as any circumstance requiring the direct involvement of, or formal notification from, a Law Enforcement Agency (LEA)—the operator reserves the right to preserve relevant raw data and session metadata within a secure, isolated storage environment. Under applicable statutory provisions, the operator reserves the right to withhold notification to the user and suspend report delivery while required to do so by an active law enforcement order or legal obligation.

localStorage (Privacy Policy Consent): Stores a single boolean flag confirming that the user has reviewed and accepted this Privacy Policy.localStorage (Terms of Service Consent): Stores a single boolean flag confirming acceptance of the Service Terms.While browsing the informational website does not require accepting these items, accessing off-platform functionality—including generating official invites to the Discord server—requires explicit consent to both policies stored locally in your browser.
All core script execution, manual verification processing, and temporary file rendering take place within a hardened, dedicated virtual private server (VPS) configured as follows:
To execute open-source footprint analysis, the operator utilizes specialized Command-Line Interface (CLI) reconnaissance utilities and third-party APIs. Data transmitted to these services is restricted solely to the public handle, domain, or email address undergoing audit.
Where third-party web domains or self-hosted web servers are submitted by a user for footprint verification, the user must insert a designated verification string into their website's robots.txt file to demonstrate administrative control prior to scanning.
Third-party platforms and utilities utilized during operations include, but are not limited to:
