There is nothing to see here

Your photos stay put

The app is sandboxed, so it sees the files you hand it and nothing else. Your wallpapers are rendered on your Mac, to your own disk.

The app phones home once

It asks GitHub whether a newer version exists. GitHub sees your IP address and the app's version, the same as every web server you have ever met. Block api.github.com and even that stops. It lives in UpdateChecker.swift, if you would rather check than trust.

This website

Static, served by Cloudflare, typeface from Google Fonts. Both of them see your IP address. That is two third parties, which is two more than I wanted and rather fewer than the last page you had open.

If you email me

Write to hello@spreadpaper.app and I will know your email address. That is how email works. I keep it while the conversation is useful. If you are in the EU, the GDPR lets you ask what personal data is held about you, and the answer is: that email.

The small print
