Privacy Policy

The yamete app does not collect, transmit, or share your data with Chipcolate. Detection runs on your Mac; configuration and logs stay under your home directory unless you configure an action that sends something elsewhere. This website only counts visitors in aggregate — see below.

None from the app. There is no account, no sign-up, no analytics SDK, no crash reporter that phones home, and no Chipcolate server the app talks to. We do not receive sensor samples, slap events, your config, or device identifiers.

Everything lives in standard user-owned locations: config and the control socket under ~/Library/Application Support/com.chipcolate.yamete/, logs under ~/Library/Logs/yamete/. Owner-only permissions. Uninstall and delete those paths and it is gone.

Input Monitoring is required by macOS for HID access, including the motion sensor. It is not used to observe keyboards or screen content. No camera, microphone, contacts or full-disk access is required for core detection.

Acceleration and rotation samples are read in real time for slap detection. They are not uploaded. Optional telemetry on the local socket exists only so the menu bar app can draw the live scope while that window is visible.

Sounds stay local. Exec runs a program you name. Webhooks send only to URLs you provide — never to Chipcolate by default.

yamete.app uses Cloudflare Web Analytics for a privacy-first, cookie-free count of page views and visitors. No personal profiles, no fingerprinting, no ads. It does not see the app, your slaps, or anything on your Mac. Hosting providers may still process technical data such as IP addresses under their own policies.

No advertising or analytics SDKs in the app. Builds are signed and notarised for Gatekeeper and published as GitHub Releases — not through the Mac App Store. The only analytics we run is the light visitor count on this website, described above.

The app does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children. The website's visitor counts are aggregate and cookieless. Chipcolate cannot identify you from either, so there is nothing personal to delete on request.

Chipcolate holds no personal data about yamete users from the app. Data on your Mac is under your control. Website visitor counts are aggregate; we cannot look someone up from them.

If this policy changes, we will update the effective date and note material product changes in release notes.
