Your input stays
between your devices.

This policy covers GlassPad for iPhone and iPad, GlassPad Mac, and this website. GlassPad is developed by Ashutosh Wahane.

App data and local connections

GlassPad does not require an app account and does not include advertising or analytics services. We do not operate a server that receives your pointer movements, keystrokes, typed text, or pairing codes.

The app sends input commands and text you choose to send directly to your paired Mac using an encrypted local network connection. The receiving Mac passes that input to its active application. Those applications may store what you enter under their own privacy policies.

Pairing details and connection state are kept in memory while the apps run. Nearby Mac names are discovered on your local network. Preferences such as pointer speed, scrolling, and whether a successful Mac connection has occurred are stored locally on your device. This connection preference only enables the trial activation button; it never grants access or stores the trial start date. Quitting ends the in-memory session; a fresh pairing is required after quitting.

Permissions

Local Network access lets the apps discover and connect to each other. Camera access scans the Mac pairing QR code on your device; GlassPad does not save or upload camera images. You can paste a pairing code instead. Pasting is initiated by you. Mac Accessibility permission allows the companion to deliver mouse and keyboard input.

You can revoke these permissions in device Settings or macOS System Settings. Disconnect or pause the companion to stop control. Removing the app removes its local app data, subject to your device backup and operating system behavior.

Purchases

Apple processes purchases. GlassPad reads verified StoreKit transaction information to determine whether your lifetime unlock or trial is active, including purchase dates needed to calculate trial expiry. We do not receive your payment card details. Apple’s own privacy policy applies to its billing services. Restoring purchases uses Apple’s purchase history. The seven-day full-app trial starts with the verified free trial transaction after successful pairing. Reinstalling or restoring on another device does not restart its original dates. Access diagnostics display the verified entitlement state and StoreKit environment locally; they are not sent to us.

Website and support

This website has no analytics scripts or advertising. It is hosted by GitHub Pages; GitHub may process technical request information, such as IP addresses, to operate its service under GitHub’s privacy statement.

If you contact us through GitHub Issues, your message and GitHub profile are public. We use that information to answer questions and investigate problems. Do not post sensitive information. You can edit or delete your own issue content subject to GitHub’s controls and retention policies.

For email support, we use your email address and the information you provide to respond and resolve the request. Support emails are handled through Gmail and retained while needed for support and related records. You may request deletion by email, subject to any necessary legal retention.
