Privacy policy

Effective 1 November 2026.

Qather is made by Qeepl, Inc., a Delaware corporation in the USA. This policy covers the Qather app, the license service that issues your keys, and the qather.com website.

Summary

Qather has no analytics and no tracking: the app doesn't send us information about how you use it. The website sets no cookies and only counts visits, as described below. We collect only what we need to sell you a license and to make it work.

The website

qather.com sets no cookies and loads nothing from other sites. To know how many people visit and download Qather, it counts page views and downloads. For each one it keeps only the page, the website you came from, your country, and whether the visitor looks like a bot. It doesn't keep your IP address or anything else that identifies you.

The app

Qather keeps your license key, your license token and the start date of your trial in the macOS Keychain on your Mac. When you activate or refresh your license, the app talks to the license service described below.

The license service

When you buy Qather, and when you activate or check a license, the license service stores:

• your email address, which is the address you paid with;
• your license key;
• the Stripe payment reference for your purchase;
• for each Mac you activate, an anonymous machine ID, the Mac's name and the version of Qather. The machine ID is a hash derived from the Mac's hardware identifier. It isn't the serial number, and it can't be used to identify the hardware;
• when each activated Mac last checked its license.

To stop abuse, the forms for resending keys and leaving reviews count requests from each IP address, and resent emails to each address, for one hour. Expired counts are deleted every day.

Payments

Stripe processes payments for Qather purchases, so your payment details, billing address and receipts are handled under Stripe's privacy policy. We never see your full card number. From Stripe we receive your email address and a payment reference, which the license service stores as listed above.

Email and hosting

Resend sends your license emails. Cloudflare hosts this website and the license service.

Crash reports

Qather never sends a crash report on its own. If the app quits unexpectedly, the next launch asks whether to email the crash report to help fix it. The report opens in your email client addressed to contact@qeepl.com so you can review it before sending. Nothing is sent automatically; the report goes only if you send the email yourself.

Reviews

About two weeks after you buy, we email you once to ask for a review, with a personal link. The app's License page can open the same link.

If you leave a review:

• we store your name, what you do (if you filled it in), the rating, the text and the date;
• we show them publicly on qather.com;
• the link works once;
• write to contact@qeepl.com to change or remove your review.

Your choices

To ask what we hold about your purchase, or to ask us to delete it, write to contact@qeepl.com. We may keep records that we're required to keep for tax and payment purposes.
