PRIVACY POLICY

Last updated: December 2025

LinkMyMac (“we”, “us”, “our”) is a macOS and Android application that lets you connect your Android device to your Mac over your local network. We take privacy extremely seriously and designed LinkMyMac so that your data always stays on your devices.

This policy explains what data the app accesses, how it is used, and your rights.

1. What data the app collects

LinkMyMac does NOT collect, store, transmit or sell any personal data.

We do not run servers and we do not store anything externally.

All communication happens locally on your WiFi network, directly between your devices.

The app only accesses data required for the features you choose to use.

1.1 Files, Photos and Videos

Accessed only when you manually transfer files between devices.
No background scanning.
No uploads to any server.

1.2 Contacts

Used only when you press “Sync Contacts”.
Contacts are transferred directly from Android → macOS.
We never upload or store contacts online.

1.3 Screen Recording (macOS)

Used only for the Android screen mirroring feature.
The video stream stays on your local network and is not recorded, stored, or uploaded.

1.4 Accessibility permissions (macOS)

Used only if you enable remote control (click, scroll, navigate).
Nothing is logged or transmitted.

1.5 Local Network access

Used so your Mac and Android device can discover each other.
We never access your router or internet traffic.

1.6 Device Information

The app may read basic device info (e.g. model name, system version) required for connectivity.
Not transmitted, not stored, not shared.

2. What data we do NOT collect

LinkMyMac does not collect or store:

Email addresses
IP addresses
Identifiers
Analytics
Usage tracking
Location data
Crash logs (unless you manually send them)
Clipboard contents (unless you use the clipboard feature and even then, only device to device)

3. How your data is processed

All processing happens locally on your devices.

Zero cloud storage.

Zero external servers.

Zero third-party analytics.

The app cannot access anything unless you explicitly grant permission.

4. Third-party services

LinkMyMac uses no third-party SDKs inside the apps.

Your data is never shared with advertisers or analytics providers.

If you send an email for support, we may see the content of your message. That is the only personal data we may handle, and only because you decided to share it.
