Document your mobile apps’ compliance, with dated evidence

The web, you know how to audit; the mobile app stays a black box. Skanopy opens it: every issue proven and prioritized, readable without technical skills, and that also speaks revenue to the publisher.

Mobile is no longer the DPO’s blind spot.

The CNIL itself notes that mobile carries more risk than the web for personal data. Yet you have no simple way to see what an app does, and what the publisher declares is not always what the app does.

third parties fired despite the tracking refusal, across 20 news apps.

Mobile apps, one of the CNIL’s priority inspection themes.

What a CNIL inspection checks

Apps you finally control.

  • Findings, not assumptions

    Every observation is reproducible and dated, backed by evidence: enough to document your compliance.

  • Your blind spot covered

    What an app does on the device: the data that leaves it, the permissions it actually uses. Audits often stop at the web and the declared.

  • Hours saved

    The analysis does the technical work: it captures real behavior, ties each piece of data to who receives it and ranks every issue by priority, with the fix to make.

  • The gaps before the regulator

    Actors fired without consent, data sent before any choice: you fix them before a check.

  • An argument the publisher hears

    The partners deprived of the consent obtained: compliance becomes a revenue question too, which backs up your recommendations.

The concrete gain, exactly as it appears in the report you receive.

No technical skills required.

  • A Google Play Store link
  • Or the .apk of an unreleased version
  • No integration in the app
  • On real phones
  • A real user journey replayed
  • Every exchange logged
  • A recommended action per finding
  • A priority and dated evidence
  • The fix verified on the next version

Your questions, our answers.

  • No. Skanopy runs the technical analysis and delivers readable findings, tied to every piece of evidence.

  • They are factual, dated and reproducible: enough to document your compliance.

  • Yes. The actors and data observed feed straight into your mapping and the tracking of your processors.

  • Yes, on any Android app you are entitled to audit. A Google Play link or an .apk file is enough.

  • Because the same record serves both: it shows what leaves without consent, and the partners that do not receive the consent the user gave. Fixing the first protects the publisher, fixing the second may pay off: your recommendation comes with both.

  • No. Skanopy analyzes the app whatever its banner and whatever its partners. Its only allegiance: what the app does.

  • Skanopy is a French company, and your analyses are processed in the European Union.

  • No. Skanopy analyzes Android apps today; iOS is on our roadmap.

Let’s look at what your apps really do.
