Privacy Policy
Last updated 2026-10-10.
Summary
File names, file contents and folder paths never leave your Mac. Sweepy has no account, no advertising and no third-party SDKs. From version 1.0.2, Sweepy sends anonymous usage statistics (for example "a scan finished") so we can see which features are used. You can turn this off anytime in Settings → Folders → Privacy.
What stays on your Mac
| Data | Why |
|---|---|
| Access to the folders you choose (security-scoped bookmarks) | So you don't have to pick the folders again every launch |
| Cleanup history (which file moved from where to where) | So you can undo a cleanup |
| Your settings (thresholds, folder names you chose) | So Sweepy remembers your preferences |
This data is stored only inside Sweepy's own container on your Mac. Deleting the app deletes it.
Purchases
The in-app purchase is processed by Apple through the Mac App Store. We never see your payment details. Sweepy only checks with Apple whether Pro is unlocked on this device.
Anonymous usage statistics
Sweepy sends a few events to Google Analytics 4 directly (no Google SDK inside the app):
| What is sent | Example |
|---|---|
| Event name | app opened, scan finished, cleanup done, undo, sort done, purchase screen shown, purchase / restore |
| Rough counts, as ranges only | "100-999 files", "1-10GB" — never exact numbers |
| App version | 1.0.2 |
| A random ID created on your Mac | Not linked to your Apple ID, name, email or hardware |
Never sent: file names, file contents, folder paths, your name, email or Apple ID. No user ID, no advertising, no Google Signals, no tracking across other apps or websites. Google receives your IP address as part of any internet connection; Google Analytics 4 does not store it. Turn it off in Settings → Folders → Privacy → "Share anonymous usage stats". When it is off, Sweepy sends nothing.
Network
Sweepy connects to Apple for the in-app purchase, and to Google Analytics for the anonymous statistics above (only while that switch is on).
Children
Sweepy is not directed at children.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
