Frequently asked questions

Clear answers on duration, pricing, confidentiality, what happens if a device is found, and what a sweep can and cannot verify.

How long does a sweep take?

It depends on the size of the space, the number of rooms, how much furniture and electronics it contains, and which methods are needed. A single meeting room or a vehicle often takes a few hours; a multi-floor office or a large house can take more than a day.

After the first conversation, and an assessment if needed, we give you a realistic estimate. A rushed sweep can be more misleading than none, so we don't drop methods to save time.

What happens if a device is found?

We don't touch it straight away. First we photograph it in place and document its location, power source and how it is connected. Removing it suddenly can alert whoever placed it and reduce its value as evidence.

Then we plan the next step with you, such as speaking to a lawyer, going to the police, or leaving it in place for now. Those decisions are yours. If your personal safety is at risk, we time every step around that. If you are in immediate danger, call 112.

Who needs to be present during the sweep?

For a home or vehicle, usually just you. In offices it helps to have one person with authority over room, ceiling and riser access.

We recommend keeping the number of people who know about the sweep as small as possible. Who is told, and who is present, is your decision.

Do you work outside Ankara?

Yes. We're based in Ankara and work on site in every province of Turkey. We bring our own equipment; you don't need to prepare anything.

For work outside Ankara, travel and accommodation are shown clearly in the quote we give after the assessment.

How is pricing worked out?

Pricing depends on the size of the space, the number of rooms, vehicles or devices, the methods required and the location. That's why we don't publish a fixed price list.

After the first conversation, and an assessment if needed, you receive a written quote that states clearly what is and isn't included.

How do you keep things confidential? Will you sign an NDA?

We don't share our work, our clients or our findings with anyone. Reports go only to the people you designate. For corporate work we sign NDAs on request.

Our website follows the same principle: no forms, no cookies, no visitor tracking. What you send us is used only to reply and carry out your request.

Do you sell listening or tracking devices?

No. We do not sell, rent or install surveillance devices. Our only job is finding them and protecting you from them.

A firm that both finds and sells these devices invites questions about its impartiality, so we keep a clear line.

Can phone apps find hidden cameras or bugs?

Not reliably. Most "bug detector" apps use the phone's magnetometer, which reacts to speakers, magnets and metal and cannot single out a tiny camera. Phones don't have the hardware to measure RF transmissions.

A phone camera can show some infrared night-vision LEDs, and checking the Wi-Fi list is a useful first step. But seeing nothing doesn't mean nothing is there. Our guide explains this in detail.

Can you check my phone or car remotely?

No. Passive GPS loggers emit no signal, so a car cannot be swept remotely; it has to be inspected physically. A phone inspection also needs the device in hand.

Giving remote access to a service that promises a remote phone check creates a new security risk. What we can do by phone or message is listen to your situation and explain safe first steps.

What does the report include?

The areas inspected, the methods applied in each, any suspicious readings and how they were verified or ruled out, findings with photographs, and our recommendations.

If nothing is found we say so clearly, listing which area was inspected with which method and any points that could not be inspected. The report goes only to the people you designate.

Do you offer regular sweep programmes?

Yes. For organizations we set up a schedule based on the risk level of critical spaces, with dates kept confidential and unpredictable. Each sweep is reported against the previous measurements.

Extra sweeps after events such as refurbishment, a critical meeting or the departure of someone in a sensitive role can be built into the programme.

Does a sweep prove a space is clean for good?

No. A sweep verifies the state of the space at the time of the sweep. A new object brought in, or tampering after we leave, is outside its scope.

Every method also has limits, and we state them in the report. What we can honestly give you is a documented answer as to whether a device was detected at the time, using the methods applied. Where you need continuity, we recommend periodic sweeps.

If your question isn’t answered here, message us from a device other than the one you suspect.
