ENShotShort version: ENShot does not collect, transmit or sell any personal data. What you capture stays on your Mac.
What ENShot stores
Screenshots, screen recordings, step-by-step guides, recognized text and settings are stored only on your Mac, in ~/Library/Application Support/ENShot and in folders you choose for saving. You can delete them in the app or in Finder at any time, and set how long history is kept.
What ENShot sends
Nothing about you or your captures. ENShot has no account system, cloud storage, analytics, advertising or crash-reporting SDK. Its only network use is updating: the built-in updater (Sparkle) checks the update feed on this website (https://enshot.pages.dev/appcast.xml), once a day by default, and downloads a new version from this website when you choose to install it. These requests carry what any web request carries (your IP address) plus a user agent with the app name, the app version and the Sparkle version; ENShot sends no system profile. You can turn off automatic checks, or automatic download and install, in Settings › General › Updates.
Text recognition
Text and QR codes are recognized on your Mac with Apple's Vision framework. Images and text are never uploaded. Opening a link found in a QR code happens only when you click Open in Browser.
Permissions
Screen Recording lets ENShot capture your screen. Accessibility (Device Control & Data Access on macOS 27) enables automatic scrolling and names guide steps after the clicked element. Microphone, Camera and Input Monitoring are used only during screen recordings you start, and keystrokes are never shown while secure input is active. All permissions are requested by macOS and can be revoked in System Settings.

Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date. A change that adds any data collection would be announced in the release notes first.
