# Google Apps - Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 7, 2026

Google Apps ("we", "our", or "us") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information the app handles and how it is used when you use our macOS application.

## Information the app uses

The App stores launcher preferences on your device, such as app order, pinned items, hidden items, widgets, and custom shortcuts you create.

The App can open third-party websites you select (for example Gmail, Google Drive, Maps, and others). Content you view or submit on those websites is governed by those services, not by this App.

If you use paid features, subscription and purchase data is processed by Apple through StoreKit and your Apple ID account.

## Permissions

The App may request system permissions only when needed by features:

Location: used for map-related features to center maps and suggest nearby places.

Calendars: used to display upcoming events in the Calendar widget and open scheduling links.

You can manage permissions at any time in macOS System Settings.

## Data sharing

We do not sell your personal information. Information may be shared only with service providers required to operate app functionality, such as Apple for payments and entitlement verification, or when required by law.

## Data retention

Locally stored app settings remain on your device until you remove the App data or uninstall the App. Third-party services (such as websites you open and Apple billing systems) keep data under their own policies.

## Security

We use reasonable safeguards to protect app functionality and local data handling. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

## Children's privacy

The App is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children.

## Third-party policies

The App provides access to third-party web services. Please review their privacy policies directly, including Apple and Google policy pages when relevant to your usage.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will update the date at the top of this page when changes are made.
