The app
ZoomIt4Mac collects no data. None. The app runs entirely on your Mac: there are no accounts, no telemetry, no analytics, and no crash reporting. Its only network activity is the update check described below.
Everything the app produces stays on your device:
- Screenshots and snips go to your clipboard or to a file location you choose.
- Recognized text (OCR Snip) is produced by Apple's Vision framework entirely on-device — the selected image region is never sent anywhere — and goes to your clipboard.
- Screen recordings (full display or a selected region, with optional microphone and system audio) are saved to
~/Movies/ZoomIt4Mac/on your Mac. - Settings (hotkeys, pen defaults, timer preferences) are stored in the standard macOS preferences on your Mac.
Update checks: the app uses the open-source Sparkle framework to check for new versions — a periodic fetch of a version file hosted on GitHub, plus the download of an update when you install one. These requests carry no account, identifier, or system profile — nothing beyond what any HTTP request carries — and are subject to GitHub's privacy statement. You can turn automatic checks off in Settings → Updates.
The macOS permissions the app requests — Screen Recording, and optionally Microphone — are used solely to provide the corresponding feature at the moment you invoke it. Nothing captured ever leaves your machine unless you share it yourself.
This website
zoomit4mac.corti.com is a static page. It sets no cookies, runs no analytics, and embeds no third-party trackers, fonts, or scripts.
- The page makes one request to the GitHub API to display the latest release version and link the newest download. That request is subject to GitHub's privacy statement; no information about you is sent beyond what any HTTP request carries.
- Downloads are served by GitHub Releases, likewise under GitHub's privacy statement.
- The web server hosting this page may keep standard access logs (IP address, requested URL, timestamp) for operational purposes; they are not used for profiling and are not shared.
Changes
If this policy ever changes, the updated text will be published on this page with a new date. Given that the app collects nothing, changes are unlikely.
