Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 11, 2026

Overview

Notchly is a macOS application designed to provide an interactive notch experience for music, battery, and contextual system actions.

We value your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information Notchly may access, how that information is used, and what data is not collected.

Information We Access

Depending on the features you use, Notchly may access:

  • Battery status and charging information
  • Now playing information from supported media sources
  • Basic system state required to display app functionality
  • App update information when checking for new releases

How Information Is Used

The information accessed by Notchly is used only to:

  • Display battery and charging indicators
  • Show media playback information and controls
  • Provide contextual UI behavior inside the app
  • Support update delivery for new versions of the app

Data Collection

Notchly does not sell your personal data and does not collect unnecessary personal information.

Unless explicitly stated for a specific feature, application data is processed locally on your device.

Updates

Notchly may check for software updates using the configured update feed. This may involve sending standard technical request data such as your app version and basic network metadata required to deliver updates.

Third-Party Services

Notchly may rely on third-party services strictly where needed for app distribution, hosting, or update delivery. Their handling of data is governed by their own privacy policies.

Data Retention

Notchly is designed to minimize retained data. Any locally stored preferences or settings remain on your device unless you remove the application or reset its data.

Children’s Privacy

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