Promptlight macOS App Privacy Policy

The Promptlight macOS app respects your data and privacy. We collect minimal data that is required for the app to work, and nothing else.

Data We Do NOT Collect

  • The app does not collect crash logs or any personal data beyond what is described below.
  • No internet connection is required to use the app. The only features that need an internet connection are auto-update and license activation.
  • The app does not make any changes to the system without explicit permissions from you. The following permissions will be asked:
  • File Access: Required for importing prompts from your files
  • Global Keyboard Shortcuts: Required to invoke Promptlight with your chosen keyboard shortcut

Data We Collect, When, and How We Use It

If you purchase a license key, we will collect:

  • Your email address: This is used to deliver the license key to you and to recover your license key if lost in the future.

If you activate a license key in Promptlight, we will collect:

  • Device Name (e.g., "MacBook Pro"): This helps you recognize your device in the License Manager in case you have multiple devices.
  • Device ID (hardware identifier): This is used to prevent abuse of the license key by limiting the number of devices allowed per license tier.

We do not share your data with any third-party services except as described in the Website Privacy Policy below.
