Hush Sweep privacy policy
Last updated November 10, 2026
The short version: Hush Sweep collects no data. It reads only the folders you choose, changes nothing, and the Mac App Store version makes no network connection at all.
What the app reads
Hush Sweep reads only the folders you choose. The macOS sandbox lets it open nothing else. It only reads: it never changes, moves or deletes a file. Text inside screenshots is read on your Mac.
What it keeps
What it finds is kept in the app's own folder on your Mac, without the secret itself: a finding records its kind, where it is, and the last four characters. Removing the app removes them.
Nothing is uploaded
The App Store version has no network entitlement, so it cannot send anything anywhere. No file and no finding leaves your Mac.
What is collected
Nothing. There is no account, no analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising and no tracking. The App Store privacy label is Data Not Collected. Nobody, including the developer, can see your files or what was found in them.
