Privacy

Short version: Stow™ doesn't see your files. They go from your folder to your drive and nowhere else.

• Your files: never uploaded. Stow has no servers that receive them.
• Licence: when you activate, Stow sends your licence key and your computer's name to Lemon Squeezy, so you can tell your computers apart. About once a week it checks the licence again, sending the key and that activation's ID.
• Updates: Stow checks GitHub for a new version shortly after it opens and every 6 hours after that, which shares your IP address with GitHub, like any download.
• No analytics or crash reporting in the app. Apart from the folders you choose, Stow only contacts Lemon Squeezy and GitHub.
• Purchase: Lemon Squeezy is the seller of record and handles your payment and email. Their privacy policy applies to checkout.
• This website: hosted on GitHub Pages at hgwingless.github.io/stow. It counts visits with GoatCounter, which sets no cookies and never stores your IP address. It records which page was visited, the site that linked to it, your browser, screen size and country.
