FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Everything about SafeNTy, the legal warranty and protecting your belongings.
The app
How are warranty end dates calculated?
Purchase date + warranty duration. The default is 24 months, matching the legal conformity warranty in France, and you can customise it per document if the seller offers an extension.
Does the app work on mobile?
Yes. SafeNTy runs in your phone browser with direct photo capture, and can be installed on your home screen like a native app (Android and iPhone), without any app store.
What if the automatic extraction is wrong?
Extracted details are always shown before saving: you check and correct them in seconds. Nothing is saved without your confirmation.
Can I store PDFs?
Yes, electronic PDF invoices are accepted with text extraction. A scanned PDF (image) is read using character recognition.
Your rights and warranties
How long is the legal warranty in France?
The legal conformity warranty is a minimum of 2 years on new goods. It extends to 30 months if the product was repaired during that period, and reaches 5 years for some product categories depending on their repairability index.
Do I need the receipt to claim a warranty?
You need to prove the purchase date. A readable photo of the receipt or invoice, a bank statement or a confirmation email usually works — which is why keeping everything in one place matters.
Does the warranty cover labour and shipping?
Under the legal conformity warranty, repair or replacement must be free of charge for you, which includes labour and transport.
Security and data
Is my data safe?
Your data is hosted in France, sent over an encrypted connection (HTTPS), and each account only accesses its own documents. Files are never publicly accessible: every access goes through an authorisation check.
Who can see my inventory?
Only you, unless you generate a share link. That link is a random address, read-only, time-limited (7 to 90 days) and revocable at any time from your account.
Can I retrieve or delete all my data?
Yes. You can export everything (ZIP with attachments, CSV or PDF) whenever you want, and deleting your account permanently erases your documents, photos and alerts — as required by GDPR.
Do you use advertising cookies?
No. The site only uses a session cookie strictly necessary to operate, plus optional anonymous audience measurement subject to your consent.
Claims and insurance
How does SafeNTy help with a claim?
After a fire, water damage or burglary, your insurer asks for proof of what you owned. Your photo inventory, with estimated values, invoices and serial numbers, is shared through a secure link: the file is complete from the first exchange.
Will my insurer accept this format?
The link opens a clear, printable page listing your belongings room by room, with photos and values, along with your policy numbers. You can also print it or save it as PDF to attach to your claim.
Do I have to photograph everything?
Start with the main rooms and items worth more than €300. AI scanning speeds up that first inventory considerably; you then complete it as you buy.
