STILLWORLDSPrivacy policy
Effective 5 October 2026
In short: the Stillworlds app doesn't collect, store or share any information about you. There are no accounts, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking. The only thing this website ever asks for is your email address, and only if you choose to join the newsletter.
The app
What stays on your Mac
Stillworlds keeps two small files on your Mac, in your user Library
(Library/Application Support/Stillworlds):
- Settings, for example the world you chose, your sound levels and sleep timer.
- Your purchase record: the receipt Apple signs when you buy the Launch Collection, so the app and the screen saver know which worlds are yours.
These files never leave your Mac and are never sent to us. Deleting Stillworlds and this folder removes them.
Purchases
The Launch Collection is sold through Apple's App Store. Apple handles the payment; we never see your name, payment details or Apple Account. Apple's own privacy policy applies to purchases.
Network
The app connects only to Apple's App Store, to show the price and to make or restore a purchase. The screen saver never connects to the internet. The worlds, music and sounds are all inside the app.
Crash reports
If you have chosen in macOS to share analytics with app developers, Apple may send us anonymous crash reports. These don't identify you; you can change this in System Settings › Privacy & Security › Analytics & Improvements.
This website
No cookies, no analytics
stillworlds.app uses no cookies, analytics or advertising, and loads nothing from other companies: its fonts, pictures and videos are served from the site itself. It is hosted by Cloudflare, which, like any web host, processes the technical details of each request (such as your IP address) to deliver the page and protect the site.
The newsletter
If you sign up, your email address is stored by our newsletter provider, Buttondown, and used only to send you Stillworlds news. You can leave at any time, from any newsletter or by writing to hello@stillworlds.app, and we'll delete your address. We never sell or share it.
Children
The app collects no information from anyone, including children. The newsletter is not intended for children under 13.
Changes and contact
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with a new effective date. Questions about privacy: hello@stillworlds.app.
