Privacy Policy
Last Updated: March 2026
Our Commitment to Your Privacy
BenefitCheck Ireland is designed with privacy at its core. We believe your financial information should stay yours—completely.
What We DON'T Collect
- No Personal Data: We don't collect, store, or transmit any personal information.
- No Account Required: No registration, no login, no user accounts.
- No Tracking: No analytics, cookies, or third-party tracking services.
- No Advertising: We don't use advertising networks or sell data to advertisers.
- No Server Storage: Your income and household data never leave your device.
How Your Data Stays Private
🔒 100% On-Device Processing
All calculations are performed entirely on your device using secure local storage. When you enter your income or household details, this information is stored locally on your device only.
📱 No Internet Connection Required
BenefitCheck Ireland works completely offline. You can check your eligibility in airplane mode—because we never send your data anywhere.
What Happens to Your Data
- Your income, household size, and county selection are saved using secure local storage on your device
- This data persists between app sessions for your convenience
- Deleting the app permanently removes all locally stored data
- No backups of your data are created on our servers (because we have no servers)
Third-Party Links
BenefitCheck Ireland contains links to official Irish government websites (e.g., Local Authority housing pages, Citizens Information, gov.ie). When you click these links, you leave our app and are subject to those websites' privacy policies.
Children's Privacy
BenefitCheck Ireland does not knowingly collect data from anyone, including children under 13. Because we collect no data at all, the app is safe for all ages.
Changes to This Policy
If we ever change our privacy practices, we will update this policy and the "Last Updated" date above. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
