iMouse — Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 7, 2026
Effective: October 7, 2026

This policy covers "iMouse" (the "App").

In plain words: a mouse and keyboard usage counter — how many keys you pressed, how many
times you clicked. Counting happens entirely on your own Mac. The only thing that leaves it
is a device serial number, solely for licence verification.

1. What we collect

Nothing.

• We do not upload your keystrokes, click counts, or usage statistics.
• We do not upload which keys you pressed — only a running count is kept, never content.
• No analytics, no tracking, no advertising SDK.
• All statistics stay on your own Mac, at:
  ~/Documents/公共偏好/

2. How the App handles your data

Key and click counting

• The App uses macOS global monitoring APIs to count key presses and mouse clicks, in order
  to draw statistics and charts.
• It increments counters only — it does not record what you type. Passwords, chats and file
  contents are not part of what it records.
• Statistics are stored on your Mac and can be exported to CSV by you.
• They are never uploaded and never written to a log.

3. The only things that go online

Licence verification is the only thing that goes online. The App uses no Apple in-app
purchase, and makes no other network requests whatsoever.

• Trial lookup: on launch the App sends its device serial number to the developer's
  server to look up the trial period.
• The device serial number is the only information the App sends out.
• If you prefer not to send it, you can block the App's network access in System Settings
  (this only affects the trial check).

4. Permissions

• The App requires Accessibility permission, used solely to count key presses and clicks.
  Counting does not work without it.
• Because it receives global keyboard events, macOS may also ask for Input Monitoring permission.
• You can revoke both at any time in System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility / Input Monitoring.
• The App does not require Screen Recording permission and does not use the camera or microphone.
• It does not read the contents of your files.

5. Third parties

The App includes no third-party analytics, advertising, or data-collection SDK. Any network activity involving Apple is itemised under "the only things that go online" above.

6. Your rights

• Delete your settings and statistics: remove this App's folder under ~/Documents/公共偏好/
• Uninstalling removes the App itself; the folder above must be deleted separately.
• Revoke Accessibility / Input Monitoring: System Settings → Privacy & Security
