Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 28, 2026

Welcome to GiantTurtle Software ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy applies to our macOS applications, including Desktops, as well as our website (https://giant-turtle.com).

Our core philosophy is simple: we do not collect, track, or share your data.

1.Zero Data Collection

• No Personal Data: We do not collect, store, or require any personal information (such as your name, email address, physical address, or phone number) to use Desktops.
• No Telemetry or Usage Data: Desktops does not collect analytics, diagnostic information, usage statistics, crash logs, or behavioral data.
• No Accounts or Tracking: You do not need to create an account to use the application, and we do not track your activity across sessions, apps, or websites.

2.On-Device Processing & Local Storage

• 100% Local Execution: All core features of Desktops—including active desktop monitoring, workspace switching, task and app management, memory indicators, and customizable display styles—run completely locally on your Mac.
• Local Preferences: Any configuration choices or custom preferences you set are saved directly on your local device (in macOS user defaults or local application support folders) and are never transmitted to our servers or any third parties.

3.macOS System Permissions

Desktops may request specific macOS permissions (such as Accessibility or Screen & System Window management) strictly to enable its core utility features (e.g., detecting active desktop spaces, displaying running apps, and facilitating quick space switching).

• These permissions are utilized strictly in real time on your machine.
• No screen content, window titles, or keystrokes are recorded, stored, or transmitted anywhere.

4.Third-Party Services & SDKs

• No Third-Party Trackers: Desktops does not bundle any third-party tracking, advertising, or analytics SDKs (such as Google Analytics, Firebase, or Facebook SDK).
• Payment Processing: If you purchase a license for Desktops, payment is handled by secure third-party payment processors. We do not store or have access to your full credit card or banking details.

5.Network Activity

Desktops operates entirely offline for its regular day-to-day functionality. Network connections may only be used for:

• License Verification: Securely validating a purchase or license key if applicable.
• Update Checks: Checking whether a newer version of the software is available, without sending personal information.

6.Children's Privacy

Because our applications do not collect any personal data, they do not knowingly collect or solicit information from anyone, including children under the age of 13.

7.Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable laws. Any updates will be published on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date.
