56K has no account, no tracking and no ads. We do not collect, sell or share personal data. Optional setup answers and a few app events are counted anonymously (see below).
The apps you choose to block, your dial-in history, your reasons for dialing in and your settings are stored only on your device. 56K uses Apple's Screen Time (Family Controls) to block apps. Apple gives 56K anonymous tokens for the apps you pick, not their names or your usage, and they never leave your device.
Once a day 56K may download a public file with new lines for the NO CARRIER screen from api.skyrocket-apps.de. This request contains no personal data, identifiers or usage data. Like every web server, ours briefly processes your IP address to deliver the file; we do not store or analyse it.
During setup 56K asks a few optional questions (for example where you heard about us, when you first went online, roughly how long you use your phone a day) and notes which setup screens were reached. Each answer is sent once to skyrocket-apps.com as a single line: date, question, answer and app version. It contains no name, no device or advertising identifier and no IP address, and it cannot be linked to you. We only count the answers to improve 56K. Your name stays on your iPhone.
In the same anonymous way 56K counts a few moments in the app: when the subscription screen is shown or closed, when a trial or purchase starts (product name only), your first dial-in and hang-up, hang-up milestones, when you open the share sheet, and whether 56K is still installed 1, 3, 7, 14 and 30 days after setup. Each is one line with date, event name and app version. There is no identifier, so these counts cannot be combined into a profile of you. Development and test versions of 56K send nothing.
If you switch on “Online at 1999 speed”, 56K adds a VPN configuration to your iPhone. While you are dialed in, the connection of the app you dialed runs through a small tunnel that works entirely on your device and slows that app to about 7 KB per second. Your traffic is not sent to us or to any server of ours. 56K only reads the host names of connections (for example instagram.com) to decide what to slow down. It does not read content, store, log or share it. The tunnel switches itself off when your online time ends. You can switch it off any time in 56K's settings or remove it in iOS Settings → General → VPN & Device Management.
56K Lite opens the websites of services you choose (for example instagram.com) inside 56K, or a link you share to 56K from another app. You talk to those websites directly, exactly as in Safari: if you log in, the website’s own cookies are stored on your iPhone and its own privacy policy applies. 56K only hides parts of the page (for example Reels or ads) on your device. It does not read, store or send what you see or type there, and nothing from it reaches us.
If you open the party line, 56K asks skyrocket-apps.com for a random 7-letter line code and a secret, which are stored on your iPhone. Our server stores only that code, a fingerprint of the secret, the date it was made and two counters (friends who joined, rewards claimed). When a friend redeems your voucher, our server hands out one single-use App Store offer code. If the friend then subscribes with it, the friend’s 56K sends the line code and the App Store transaction ID once; we store only a one-way fingerprint of that ID so each subscription counts once. When you claim a reward, our server signs an Apple promotional offer for your subscription.
Picking up the phone: once a day you can “pick up the phone” on a friend's line by entering their line code. Our server then stores, on your friend's line, the time and your line code for at most 24 hours. The next time your friend dials in, their 56K fetches it once, the entry is deleted, and their online time ends early. No names, email addresses, device identifiers or IP addresses are stored.
Subscriptions are handled entirely by Apple. We never see your payment details.
To check which plan you have and to compare our offers (for example a free week against a reduced first month), 56K uses RevenueCat, Inc. as our processor. RevenueCat receives an anonymous ID created by the app, the purchases Apple confirms (product, price, country, date) and your App Store transaction ID. It also receives your optional setup answers (where you heard about us, your goal, your daily phone time, when you first went online) and, if you came from an Apple Search Ads ad, Apple's anonymous attribution token, so we can see which channel brings subscribers. It receives no name, no email address, no screen time and no information about the apps you use. RevenueCat's privacy policy: revenuecat.com/privacy.
56K does not knowingly collect data from anyone, including children.
