Privacy Policy
Effective date: November 15, 2026
SiteShift is made by On the Roof Studios Inc. ("we", "us"). This policy explains how the SiteShift app and its Safari extension handle your information.
We don't collect your data
SiteShift does not collect, store, sell or share any personal information. There are no accounts, no analytics, no ads and no tracking. The app and extension never send information to us or to anyone else.
What stays on your iPhone
To work, SiteShift keeps a few things on your device only:
- Your settings. This includes whether desktop mode is on, whether pages reload when you fold or unfold, and the sites you've chosen to keep on mobile. They are shared between the app and the Safari extension on your iPhone and are never uploaded.
- Whether your phone is unfolded. The extension checks the size of Safari's window to tell whether your iPhone Duo is unfolded. It uses this only to decide which version of a site to request, and doesn't record or send it anywhere.
- When the extension last ran. This lets the app show you whether the extension is set up correctly.
Deleting SiteShift removes all of this from your iPhone.
Website access
Safari asks you to allow SiteShift on "All Websites." SiteShift needs this so it can ask each site for its desktop version. While your phone is unfolded, it changes how Safari identifies itself to sites, the same way Safari's built-in "Request Desktop Website" does. SiteShift does not read, collect or store the content of the pages you visit, what you type, or your browsing history.
Websites you visit
SiteShift only changes which version of a website you see. It has no control over the websites themselves. Each website you visit may collect information under its own privacy policy, for example through cookies, analytics or account sign-ins. That is up to the website, not us. Please read the privacy policies of the sites you use.
Bug reports
If you choose to use Report a Bug in the app, it opens an email in your own mail app. The email contains the description you write and some technical details, such as the app and iOS version, your device model and your SiteShift settings. It also contains the number of sites you keep on mobile, but not which ones. It never includes the websites you visit. You can see everything in the email before you send it, and nothing is sent unless you send it yourself. We use these emails only to fix problems.
Children
SiteShift doesn't collect any information from anyone, including children under 13.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, we'll update it here and change the effective date above.
