Zaap Launcher

Privacy Policy

Last updated June 9, 2026

Overview

Zaap Launcher ("we", "us", or "our") operates zaaplauncher.com and distributes the Zaap Launcher desktop application for Linux. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Information We Collect

Website

When you visit our website, we may collect:

  • Usage analytics — In production, we use Google Analytics to understand page views, referrers, and general traffic patterns. Google may set cookies or similar identifiers in your browser.
  • Contact form submissions — If you submit the contact form, we receive the information you provide (such as your name, email address, and message) through Google Forms.
  • Newsletter sign-ups — If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect the email address you submit.

Desktop Application

Zaap Launcher is designed to run locally on your machine. Clipboard history, search history, and most app data stay on your device and are not transmitted to us. Features that call third-party services (such as translation or image search) send only the data required for that request directly to those providers.

We do not operate account sign-in for the desktop app and do not collect telemetry from the application by default.

How We Use Information

We use the information described above to:

  • Respond to support requests and inquiries
  • Send newsletter updates if you subscribe
  • Understand how the website is used and improve it
  • Maintain the security and reliability of our services

We do not sell your personal information.

Third-Party Services

Our website and app may rely on third-party services, including:

Third-party providers process data under their own policies. We encourage you to review them.

Data Retention

We retain contact and newsletter information only as long as needed to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required by law. Analytics data is retained according to Google Analytics settings.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal information. To make a request, contact us at [email protected].

Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date on this page. Continued use of the website or application after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
