Privacy Policy

WinPin is a desktop application that manages your windows locally on your Mac. Your window layouts, positions, workspace names, and preferences never leave your computer.

What WinPin does not do

  • No analytics. No Google Analytics, no telemetry, no usage tracking of any kind.
  • No cookies. This website does not set cookies.
  • No tracking pixels. No third-party scripts report your visits.
  • No data collection. WinPin does not collect, store, or transmit information about your windows, apps, or workflows.

What WinPin stores locally

All data stays on your Mac in WinPin's application support directory:

  • Window positions and sizes for each display configuration
  • Workspace definitions (names and associated layouts)
  • Your preferences (tile zone settings, keyboard shortcuts, behavior options)

None of this data is transmitted anywhere. It exists only on your machine and is fully under your control.

Update checks

WinPin periodically contacts our update server to check whether a new version is available. This is the only network communication the app makes. During an update check, the following information is exchanged:

  • Your current WinPin version number so the server can determine if an update exists
  • Your macOS version so the server can confirm compatibility
  • Your license status (active or trial) to serve the correct update channel

No personal information, hardware identifiers, IP-based tracking, or usage data is included in this exchange. The server responds with version information only. You control whether to download and install any update.

You can disable automatic update checks in WinPin's preferences at any time.

This website

This website is static HTML served from a CDN. It does not use cookies, analytics, or server-side tracking. The only use of browser storage is localStorage for your light/dark theme preference and a one-time privacy notice dismissal flag.

Global Privacy Control

This site detects and honors the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. If your browser sends a GPC signal, we respect it, though in practice there is nothing to opt out of since we do not track you in the first place.
