Privacy Policy

Last updated: 14 November 2026

Kowalski is made by [Company name] ("we"). In short: your screenshots stay on your Mac, and we collect as little as possible.

Your screenshots

Everything you capture, annotate or recognize as text is processed on your Mac and stored only where you put it: the clipboard, the folder you choose, and Kowalski's history in your Library folder (which you can limit or turn off in Settings). We never receive your screenshots or the text in them.

License checks

When you activate a license and about once a week afterwards, Kowalski sends your license key, an activation ID and your Mac's name to our store, Lemon Squeezy, to confirm the license is valid. Nothing else is sent.

Updates

Kowalski checks getkowalski.com for new versions. Like any web request this includes your IP address and the app version; we don't use it to identify you.

Purchases

Payments are handled by Lemon Squeezy, our merchant of record. They process your name, e-mail address and payment details under their privacy policy. We receive your name, e-mail and order details to provide your license and support.
