Safety rules

False alerts are banned

A false, prank or test alert can get your account and your device blocked. So can using Ambrify to find an adult, an ex-partner, or a child in a custody dispute.

See something wrong? Tap Report on the alert, in the app or on the alert page. We review reports.

Limits on alerts

• One active alert per profile.
• At most 3 alerts per family per hour.
• Alerts end after 24 hours, or when the family taps “Found them.”

Strangers see only a poster

• People nearby see only what a paper poster would show: photo, first name, look-alike details, clothing, last-seen place and time.
• Special notes, like allergies or “nonverbal”, go only to someone who taps “I see them”.
• Ambrify never shows a child’s live location. It does not track children.

Finders are protected too

When you tap “I see them”, your location goes to the parent only. Nobody else sees where you are.

Photos are deleted

When they are found or the alert expires, we delete the photos, the name and the details, and each finder’s location, note and phone number. A small record stays, with no name or photo. The Privacy Policy lists it.

Watch for scams

• Never pay anyone who says they have your child or pet.
• Ask for a photo first. Real finders send one.
• Meet in a public place, or call the police.

No face matching

Ambrify never scans faces. Not children’s, not anyone’s.
