Privacy
Updated 13 November 2026.
This website
- No cookies, no analytics, no trackers. The site loads nothing from other websites: its text, pictures and fonts all come from this address.
- The site is served by Cloudflare, which handles each request to deliver the page. We have not turned on any visitor analytics.
- No cookies, no ads. The site's text, pictures and fonts all come from this address. The one thing it loads from elsewhere is Microsoft Clarity, for visit analytics (below).
- The site is served by Cloudflare, which handles each request to deliver the page.
- The free batch code checker and Is it legit? checklist run in your browser: what you type or tick there is not stored or sent anywhere.
- The beta links take you to Apple's TestFlight, a Google Group for Android testers, and Google Play. What happens there is up to those services and to you.
- To test on Android you join our Google Group with your Google account. Google runs the group, its member list isn't public, and we use it only to let its members install the beta.
Visit analytics on this website
- This website uses Microsoft Clarity, a Microsoft service, to see how visitors use its pages. Clarity records masked session replays (a reconstruction of the page as you saw it, with all of its text replaced by placeholder characters), clicks, scrolls and mouse movement, the address of the page and of the one that brought you here, and your browser, device and screen size. Microsoft uses your network address to work out an approximate location.
- No cookies. The site tells Clarity not to store anything for analytics or advertising on your device, so Clarity sets no cookies. Microsoft says that without cookies Clarity gives each page view its own ID and treats each page as a separate visit.
- We also note, by name only, when someone taps a beta link or plays the video. We never send Clarity your name, email address or anything you type: the whole page is masked, form fields included.
- Clarity runs only on this site's public pages at nozedex.com, not in the app. Microsoft keeps recordings for up to 30 days (a random sample, and any we mark as favourites, for up to 9 months), on Microsoft Azure. What Microsoft does with the data is set out in the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
- The site works the same if your browser or a content blocker stops Clarity.
The newsletter
- If you sign up for the monthly email, we keep your email address, the page's language, which page you signed up on, the time you signed up and its status (waiting for your confirmation, confirmed or unsubscribed). Nothing else: no name, no network address, no cookie.
- It is kept in a Google Sheet in our own Google Workspace, and the emails are sent from it by Google. Google's terms for Workspace apply to how Google handles it.
- Double opt-in. Signing up sends you one email with a link to confirm. Until you open it you get nothing else, and an address that is never confirmed is not used.
- Unsubscribe from any email: each one has a link that stops them at once.
- To have your address deleted, write to us at the address below and we delete its row.
The app
The app is NozeDex (formerly The Scent Index), on TestFlight and Google Play. In short:
- No account, no ads. Your collection, ranks, notes, journal and settings are stored on your device. Only what you send to an AI feature leaves it (below). We don't sell anything, and the app has no analytics, advertising or cross-app tracking.
- AI features, when you use them. In the app the AI is called Le Nez: the app says so once, before he first answers, and he never changes your ranks, lists or purchases. Ideas, descriptions, looking up a perfume the catalog doesn't have, reading a list, a bottle photo or a shelf photo: the request goes to our own service with a random install ID made on your phone, and the service asks OpenAI to answer. For you sends your request and the names of the perfumes you own and want, never your ranks, journal, ratings or prices; Find a perfume sends your answers to Find a perfume and the catalog perfumes that fit them, never the perfumes you own or want; a photo is sent only when you ask AI to read it. Looking a perfume up asks a data provider first, with only the name you typed (at most five such lookups a day for everyone), and the web search through OpenAI when that finds nothing; a perfume found that way is kept by our service, with nothing about who asked, so it can join the catalog for everyone, and so are the top, heart and base found for a catalog perfume, kept with its catalog number. Apart from that, our service keeps no request text and no photos. To keep use fair it counts requests per install ID and per network, with the network address kept only as a one-way hash, and deletes those counts once they are a day old, checking every hour. OpenAI's own API terms apply to what it receives.
- Bottle pictures and exchange rates come through the same service. A picture is asked for by its catalog number only, counted per network (one-way hash) for about a day; the rate table carries nothing about you and is the same for everyone.
- Shops near you asks for your approximate location while you use it. For Shops near you it sorts the list on your phone, and Shops near you never sends or stores it.
- The weather beside today's date is asked only once you tap Show the weather; after that the app asks by itself on later visits, at most once an hour, until you tap the weather to hide it. Each time it sends our service your position rounded to about 11 km if you allow location, otherwise your phone's time zone, otherwise your country, and nothing else (no install ID). The service asks MET Norway for the forecast and keeps it under that rounded place, with nothing about who asked, for at most an hour, so the same place isn't asked twice; it never logs your position.

- Backups are files you make and share yourself. Deleting the app deletes everything it stored on your device.
