What we store, in plain words
Flatscanner is in early access. This page is short because we keep very little.
Listings you paste
We keep the structured facts we extract (rent, deposit, locality, room type and so on), a short text snapshot, and the report we generated, so that your share link keeps working. Reports are public to anyone who has the link — that's the point of them — but the link is a long random one, and we keep report pages out of search engines. Your office and commute are yours: they show on your own screen, never to someone you send the link to. Don't paste phone numbers or names you wouldn't want on a shared page.
Your email
We ask for it once, to unlock full reports and, if you opt in, to tell you when the daily Search Agent launches. We don't sell it or share it with brokers or listing sites. One reply to any email from us removes it.
Your preferences
Office area, budget, room type, flatmate preference and move-in date, if you choose to save them. They exist only to score listings against what you need.
A cookie
One first-party cookie (fs_vid) tells your device apart so your free reports and unlocked status follow you. No advertising or third-party tracking cookies. We count product events (a report was run, a link was shared) on our own servers to see what's working.
Map and analysis data
Commute, nearby places and locations come from OpenStreetMap and related open services. Listing text is processed by an AI model to pull out structured fields and write the summary.
Questions or deletion
