What we do NOT collect
Information we do collect
For paid users, we collect the minimum information necessary to issue and validate your license:
- Email address — provided at checkout, used to deliver your license key and to communicate about your purchase.
- License key & device hash — sent to our verification server every 24 hours to confirm activation status. The device hash is a non-reversible fingerprint; we cannot identify your device from it.
- IP address & timestamp — automatically logged by our infrastructure provider (Cloudflare) for security and abuse prevention. Retained for 30 days.
