In short
- SkipLock doesn't collect, store, send or share any personal information.
- The app runs entirely on your PC and never connects to the internet. There are no accounts, no ads, and no analytics or tracking.
What the app keeps on your PC
The app saves its settings, such as your shortcut and how many seconds you have to close the lid, in your Windows user profile, so they are the same next time.
While a skip is in progress, the app also keeps a copy of what your power plan does when you close the lid, so it can put that setting back. None of this is sent anywhere, and uninstalling the app removes it.
Microsoft Store and Windows
The app is distributed through the Microsoft Store. Microsoft handles downloads, and Windows may collect information such as installs and crash reports, under the Microsoft Privacy Statement. The developer only sees summary reports from Microsoft, such as the number of downloads and crashes.
Sharing
The developer does not sell, rent or share your information, and does not use it for advertising.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
