Your files stay on your PC.
The short version
- Sweepr never uploads your filenames, paths, or file contents
- No analytics, no tracking, no telemetry
- No account needed to use the app
- Two optional network requests: update check and license validation
- No data is shared with third parties
1. Who we are
Sweepr for Windows is made by twoplus11 LLC, a Missouri limited liability company. When this policy says "we," "us," or "our," it means twoplus11 LLC.
2. Data Sweepr does not collect
Sweepr runs entirely on your computer. It does not collect, transmit, or store:
- Your filenames, folder paths, or file contents
- How you use the app (usage analytics or telemetry)
- Your IP address, device identifiers, or location
- Crash reports or diagnostic data
The sorting engine reads file extensions to classify files into piles. This happens locally, and no classification data leaves your machine.
3. Data Sweepr may collect
Sweepr makes two optional network requests, both to servers operated by twoplus11 LLC:
- Update check. About once a week, Sweepr checks
api.twoplus11.comfor a newer version. The request contains the app name, current version, and platform. No information about your files is included. You can turn this off in Settings. - License validation. If you purchase a business license, Sweepr sends the license key to
api.twoplus11.comto verify it is valid. The request contains only the key and app identifier.
Both requests use HTTPS. Neither request includes filenames, paths, file counts, or any information about what Sweepr has scanned or sorted.
4. Local storage
Sweepr stores the following on your computer:
- Sweep journals. A record of where each file was before and after a sweep, stored alongside the swept folder so you can undo. These never leave your PC.
- Settings. Your preferences (pile destinations, holdback period, language, update preference) in
%APPDATA%\Sweepr. - License key. If you have a business license, the key is stored locally.
Uninstalling Sweepr from Settings, Apps, Installed apps removes the application. Your sweep journals stay in the folders you swept (they are yours, not the app's), and your settings folder can be deleted manually.
5. Third parties
Sweepr does not share data with any third party. There are no analytics services, advertising networks, or cloud processing providers involved. If you leave a tip through the support section on our website, that payment is processed by Stripe under their own privacy policy.
6. Children's privacy
Sweepr does not collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13. Because no data is collected, no special provisions are necessary under COPPA or similar laws.
7. Your rights
Because Sweepr does not collect or store your personal data on our servers, there is nothing for us to access, correct, or delete on your behalf. Your sweep journals and settings live on your computer and are entirely under your control.
If you have a business license, we store the license key and the email address you provided at purchase. You can request deletion of that record by contacting us.
8. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, the updated version will be posted here with a new "last updated" date. We will never retroactively weaken your privacy protections: any change that collects more data than described here will require your explicit consent in the app.
