About this policy
Fallette is a desktop decoration app for macOS provided by mingrammer. This policy explains what the app uses and how. Fallette has no accounts and no advertising. It sends anonymous usage statistics, described below, which you can switch off.
What the app reads on your Mac
To know where snow and leaves can land, Fallette reads the position, size and stacking order of the windows on your screen, the application each belongs to, and where the Dock, the menu bar and desktop widgets are. It does this on your Mac, many times a second, and keeps none of it.
Fallette does not read what is shown on your screen, window titles, the contents of documents, or anything you type. It does not ask for Screen Recording permission. It follows the pointer only to let you sweep what has piled up, and only while it is running.
This information never leaves your Mac. It is not sent to us or to anyone else.
Settings kept on your Mac
Your theme, options, scenery arrangement and language are stored in the app's preferences on your Mac. If you set one of the app's wallpapers as your desktop picture, the app keeps a copy of that wallpaper in its own folder and remembers which picture was there before, so that it can be put back. The app also writes a small diagnostic log on your Mac, of events such as a display being connected, without window titles or content; it is never sent anywhere. Removing the app's preferences and its folder in Application Support deletes these.
Usage statistics
To learn how the app is used and what to improve, Fallette sends anonymous usage statistics to Google Analytics: that the app was installed, opened, and running on a given day; which theme was chosen; that the theme was turned on or off, a wallpaper was applied, or the introduction was finished; the steps of buying (the purchase screen was shown, the checkout was opened, a license was activated or deactivated, and whether that worked); and that an update was found.
Each of these carries a random identifier created on your Mac, the app's version, your macOS version, the type of processor, the app's language, and whether a license is active. As with any internet request, Google sees your IP address and may derive an approximate location from it.
The statistics never include anything about your windows or what is on your screen, the names of your apps or files, your license key or email address, or the name of your computer or user account. They are not used for advertising, and the identifier is not linked to your purchase.
You can switch them off at any time in the app's settings, under Usage Statistics; nothing is sent after that. See Google's Privacy Policy.
License activation
When you enter a license key, the app sends the key and a generic device label ("Mac") to Polar's license service to activate it, and sends the key and its activation ID again from time to time to check it, and once more if you deactivate it. Your computer's name and your user name are not sent. As with any internet request, the service sees your IP address. The key and activation ID are stored on your Mac.
Purchases
Purchases are made on a checkout page run by Polar, the reseller and Merchant of Record for Fallette. Polar and its payment providers collect what the purchase needs, such as your email address, name, billing country or address, and payment details. We never receive your card number.
We receive the order record from Polar: your email address, name, country, the product bought, the amount, any discount code used, and your license key and its activations. We use it to deliver your license, answer support and refund requests, prevent abuse, and keep the accounts the law requires. See the Polar Privacy Policy.
Downloads, updates and this website
Downloading the app or an update is an ordinary web request to our download host (Cloudflare), which sees your IP address and basic request information such as the app version. When the app looks for an update, it makes the same kind of request to that host.
This website is hosted by Vercel, which processes similar request information. It uses Google Analytics to count visits and presses of the download button: which pages are viewed, where visitors come from, and the kind of device and approximate location. For this Google Analytics sets first-party cookies (named _ga…) in your browser, which tell a returning visitor from a new one; you can block or delete them in your browser's settings. Advertising features are switched off, and we do not use cookies for advertising or build advertising profiles of visitors.
Contacting us
If you write to us, we receive your email address and what you send, and use them to answer you.
Retention and deletion
What the app stores stays on your Mac until you remove it. Usage statistics and website visit data are kept in Google Analytics for up to 14 months. Order and license records are kept by Polar and by us for as long as the license is in use and as tax and accounting rules require. To have a license deactivated or to ask about your order data, write to us through the contact page.
Your rights and security
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal data, to object to its use, and to complain to a supervisory authority. We do not sell personal data. Service providers may process information outside your country under their own safeguards. License requests are sent over HTTPS. No method of storage or transmission is perfectly secure.
Children and changes
Fallette is not directed to children under 13. Changes to this policy will be posted here with a new date.
