WinTers Privacy Policy

WinTers does not collect, store or share personal data. The app never goes online and has no telemetry, analytics, ads, accounts or crash reports.

What the app does on your computer

  • Cursor position and the Ctrl, Alt and S keys. The cursor brushes snow away, and the keys turn on snowball sculpting and pause. Input is only used to animate the current frame; it is never recorded or sent anywhere. The app does not read what you type.
  • Window positions and sizes. To let snow settle on window tops and the taskbar, the app reads the bounds of visible windows and their class names. It does not read window contents, titles or take screenshots.
  • Settings are stored only on your computer: on Windows in %APPDATA%\WinTers\settings.ini (the Microsoft Store version keeps them in its package folder), on macOS in ~/Library/Preferences/ru.ypklementev.WinTers.plist.
  • Launch at startup. If you turn it on, the app adds itself to startup items. You can turn it off in the same menu.
  • Link to the author's website. The menu item opens the website in your browser only when you click it. That website's own policy applies from there.

Third-party services

The app uses no third-party services or SDKs. If you installed WinTers from the Microsoft Store, Microsoft may collect installation and usage data under its own terms: privacy.microsoft.com.

Children

The app collects no data at all, including children's data.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new date.
