Trust & privacy
A safety app should not be the thing watching you.
Most safety apps ask you to trade your privacy for protection. Holler does not. These are specific, verifiable commitments, and you can hold us to every one.
What we commit to
Location only during an active alert
Your location is shared only while an alert is running, and only with the trusted contact you chose. There is no background tracking and no shared map. The rest of the time, Holler does not know where you are.
Never sold, never brokered
We do not sell your data, share it with advertisers, or hand it to data brokers. We do not run ads. Building this in Europe means that is not just a promise, it is the model.
You control when it runs
Holler is active only when you arm it or trigger it, and any armed walk-home session ends automatically on a timer. It is not an always-on tracker, and it never will be.
EU data residency, GDPR by design
Your data is held in the EU and handled under GDPR and UK GDPR. We run a data protection assessment before launching in a new market, and we keep what we collect to the minimum the feature needs.
Evidence auto-deletes
Recordings are stored securely, only you can access them, and they auto-delete after a set retention window. You can delete them yourself at any time, and deletion means deletion.
Audio off where the law requires it
In places that require all-party consent for audio (such as Germany and France, and several US states), audio recording defaults off behind an explicit opt-in. The siren, strobe, video and alert still work.
Your rights, in plain terms
Under GDPR and UK GDPR you can, at any time:
- Ask for a copy of the data we hold about you.
- Delete your account and your data, including any evidence.
- Withdraw consent and turn off analytics.
- Ask us to correct anything that is wrong.
- Contact our team about any privacy question at support@getholler.app.
Protection that respects you.
