Privacy policy
App Store Screenshot Studio is a fully client-side tool. There are no accounts, no databases, and no server of ours that your data could be sent to. This page spells out the little that does happen. Last updated: August 30, 2026.
Your screenshots and projects never leave your Mac
- Images you add are stored in the app's local IndexedDB; project data (slides, captions, settings) in localStorage — both on your Mac. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.
- Export (PNG/ZIP rendering) happens entirely on your machine.
- Deleting the app's local data deletes everything; we keep no copy, because we never had one.
What is collected: aggregate page analytics
The site uses Cloudflare Web Analytics, a privacy-first, cookieless analytics service. It reports aggregate page views and performance metrics; it does not use cookies or localStorage, does not fingerprint visitors, and does not track you across sites. We see counts, not people.
Hosting
This site is served by GitHub Pages and the app is downloaded from GitHub Releases. Like any web host, GitHub may log standard request data (such as IP addresses) to operate those services — see the GitHub Privacy Statement.
The one request the app makes
On launch the app asks GitHub's releases API whether a newer version exists, so it can
show a "new version" badge. That request carries nothing about you or your project — no
identifier, no project data, not even which version you are on; GitHub sees an IP address
and the user agent ScreenshotStudio, as it would for any download. Nothing is
sent back to us, because there is no us to send it to.
Switch it off in the app: More ··· → Check at Launch. The same menu has a manual Check for Updates that only runs when you press it.
The MCP bridge — which lets an AI agent you connect edit the open project — is a local unix socket. It reaches nothing outside your Mac, and it has its own switch in the app's header.
What is not collected
- No accounts, sign-ins, or personal profiles.
- No advertising identifiers and no advertising cookies.
- No analytics of any kind inside the app — the update check above is the only request it makes.
Changes and contact
If this policy changes (for example, if advertising is ever added), the change will be reflected on this page with a new date. Questions: open an issue on GitHub.
