Data Privacy Charter
At Ordevtool, we use wi-fi network experience measurements to publish independent reports and insights on the real-world wi-fi network experience of everyday users worldwide.
We believe it is incumbent upon us to be responsible and transparent about how we collect, use, share and protect data, and we will always treat the privacy of mobile subscribers as a fundamental right.
We design our systems from the very outset to limit the collection of personal information. The personal data we do collect helps us understand wi-fi network experience and empowers our users to make better informed decisions regarding their choice of wi-fi network provider. Our primary business is turning our data into non-personal analyses which enables legitimate telecom industry stakeholders, typically wi-fi operators and regulators, to improve the connectivity experience end users receive. We continually work with our partners to identify ways we can support them directly to improve the experience they provide for their users.
We have worked diligently to be compliant with the strictest privacy regulations globally, such as the European Union’s (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) .
How we collect data:
- We collect data through our own applications (apps) . All of our app partners are initially vetted and regularly reviewed through rigorous privacy and security processes to ensure our users’ data is treated securely and in a privacy-sensitive manner.
- We explicitly require affirmative user consent for all data we collect, and we and our partners are transparent about what we will do with that data.
- We only use the data to provide our services and derive non-personal insights on wi-fi network experience.
- We may use your information with your consent to display advertisements to keep our services free
- We take data security extremely seriously and have implemented a robust array of physical, technological and administrative measures to prevent data theft, fraud and abuse.
- All our data collection is fully compliant with the strictest privacy regulations globally, such as the European Union’s (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
What data we collect:
- The data we collect includes the location of a given device along with diagnostic information on the device’s network quality.

- The location information we collect helps us capture the network connectivity typical users experience on a per-location basis, and to provide insights on how this varies from place to place.
- We collect information on the type of network users are connected to, the strength and quality of that connection and the network operator providing the service.
- We also collect information on devices, such as phone models or mobile platforms which help us analyze the differences in wireless experience across a range of devices.

- We use location data with the express purpose of measuring and analyzing network service experience in a particular place. Collecting location data enables us to compare different network experiences among users in different locations.
- We also provide our analytics to help the world's wi-fi Network Operators to understand and improve the connectivity of their networks benefiting millions of consumers globally.
- We do not share any data with 3rd parties for personal tracking, profiling or any personalized use cases except as mentioned in the Privacy Policy.
