Privacy Policy

Last updated 15 November 2026

SnapGrid does not collect any data. There are no accounts, analytics, advertising or crash reports. The app connects to the internet only to activate and check its licence, as described below.

What the app uses, and why

• Accessibility access. SnapGrid uses it to find the windows of other apps, read their positions, sizes and titles, and move and resize them. Window titles are shown in Snap Assist and are not stored.
• Mouse and keyboard input. SnapGrid watches for window drags and for its own keyboard shortcuts, such as Control and an arrow key. It doesn't record or store what you type.
• Screen Recording access, if you allow it. SnapGrid uses it only to show previews of windows in Snap Assist. Previews are taken while Snap Assist is open, kept in memory, and discarded when it closes. They are never saved or sent anywhere.

Licence checks

Licences are sold and checked by Polar, which acts as the seller and processes payments. When you enter a licence key, SnapGrid sends Polar the key and your Mac's name, as set in System Settings. The name is shown in Polar's customer portal so you can tell your Macs apart. Every few days, SnapGrid sends the key again so Polar can confirm it's still valid. Nothing else is sent. See Polar's privacy policy.

When you buy SnapGrid, Polar collects your name, email address and payment details to process the purchase and send you the licence key. We can see your name, email address and order in Polar, and use them only to provide your licence and support.

What the app stores

Your settings, such as the layout for each display, are stored on your Mac in SnapGrid's preferences file. The start of your trial and your licence key are stored in your Mac's keychain. They stay on your Mac.
