Privacy Policy

GUIFormat ("we", "our", "us") provides a desktop application and companion website that helps users format, preview, and export GUI layouts and related code. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our application or visit our website.

Information we collect

Personal Information

We collect personal information only when you provide it voluntarily, for example when you:

Register for an account
Purchase a license
Contact support or submit feedback

Typical personal information we may collect: name, email address, billing details (processed by third-party payment providers), and license keys.

Non-personal Information

We may automatically collect non-identifying information about your device and how you use the app and site, such as:

Operating system and app version
Anonymous usage statistics and feature usage (if you opt-in)
Crash reports and diagnostic data (can be opted out in-app)

By default, file formatting and processing occur locally on your device. We do not upload your local files to our servers unless you explicitly choose to share a file when sending feedback or using a cloud/export feature.

How we use your information

To provide, maintain, and improve the application and website.
To process purchases and deliver license keys (via third-party payment processors).
To respond to support requests and communications you initiate.
To send important service messages (e.g., security or license notices). Promotional emails are only sent with your consent and include an unsubscribe option.

We do not sell personal information. We may share information with:

Third-party payment processors to handle transactions securely.
Hosting and email providers that assist us in operating the site and delivering messages.
Service providers that process anonymous analytics or crash reports if you opt in.
Law enforcement or other parties when required by law or to protect rights and safety.

Data security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information. However, no online or electronic storage method is completely secure. If you believe your account has been compromised, contact support immediately.

Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal information, and to restrict or object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us via the contact page. We will respond in accordance with applicable law.

Cookies and tracking technologies

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to provide site functionality and performance analytics. You can control cookie settings in your browser. Any analytics or tracking beyond essential cookies will only be used if you consent.

Third-party links
