Vanto
Privacy Policy
Last updated September 25, 2026
Vanto is a Mac app made by Slenbder, an independent developer. This policy explains what information the app, this website, and the purchase process handle. In short: what you copy never leaves your Mac, and the app contains no analytics or tracking.
What stays on your Mac
- Your queue. Text, images, and files you copy while collection is on are kept only on your Mac. Copies of queued files are stored in the app’s own folder and removed after they are pasted, removed, or cleared.
- Settings. Shortcuts, language, and other preferences are stored locally.
- Trial. The start date of your 14-day trial is stored in your Mac’s Keychain and is never sent anywhere.
Vanto has no account system, no analytics, no crash reporting, and no advertising.
When Vanto connects to the internet
Vanto makes network requests for two things only:
- License activation and checks. When you activate a license, Vanto sends your license key and a label made from your Mac’s name (for example, “Vanto on Anna’s MacBook”) to Lemon Squeezy’s License API, so you can see and manage your activated Macs. About once a week, and when you deactivate, Vanto sends the license key and the activation ID it received. Lemon Squeezy handles this under Lemon Squeezy’s privacy policy.
- Updates. Vanto checks a public update feed hosted on GitHub and downloads new versions when they are available. These requests include your IP address and standard request information, as any web request does. Vanto does not send a profile of your Mac.
Purchases
Lemon Squeezy is the merchant of record for Vanto: it processes payments, calculates taxes, and issues receipts and license keys. Your payment details go to Lemon Squeezy and its payment providers and are never shared with me. I receive order details such as your name, email address, country, and license key, and use them only to provide your license, support, and refunds.
This website
This website uses no cookies, analytics, or tracking scripts. Your light or dark theme choice is saved in your browser’s local storage and stays on your device. The site is hosted by Cloudflare, which processes technical data such as IP addresses to deliver and protect it.
If you write to [email protected], I use your message and email address only to reply to you, and keep the conversation for as long as needed to support you.
Your choices
You can ask me what information I hold about you, or ask me to correct or delete it, by writing to [email protected]. Order records may need to be kept for tax and accounting purposes. You can also deactivate a Mac from Vanto’s Settings at any time.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
