No continuous monitoring
BoomerBuddy does not watch messages, calls, contacts, accounts, or location. It does not open the website address someone enters or look it up with an outside service.
Help without surveillance
BoomerBuddy examines only the text or website address someone deliberately submits. Every adult chooses whether to participate and what to share. Paying for Family does not reveal another adult's Checks.
Private by default
Submitted text and website addresses are not visible to other household members. Household, administrator, and payer status do not create access to a Check. Its owner can deliberately share a redacted result with one exact Trusted Circle person.
Consent you can change
Trusted Circle invitations and permissions are explicit and revocable. Invitations are handed directly to the intended person and are not sent automatically.
Minimal records
Check responses do not repeat submitted content. Public Check keeps a protected temporary copy for up to 15 minutes only when needed to let someone save after signing in. Signed-in records show their deletion time and can be deleted sooner by the owner.
Limited operations metadata
Authorized operations staff can see limited service metadata needed to operate and support the service, including household, Check type, risk label, processing status, and timing. They cannot see the submitted message text or website address.
Clear limits when the stakes are high
A reassuring answer can still be wrong. BoomerBuddy explains warning signs, unknowns, and safer next actions, but it does not prove that a message is safe or fraudulent. Stop contact when money, accounts, or safety may be at risk. Find the organization's official phone number independently, or ask a trusted person for help. Call emergency services if anyone is in immediate danger.
