Privacy Policy — Terminal Tags

Last updated: July 26, 2026 · Effective: July 26, 2026

Bravely Studios LLC (“we,” “our,” or “us”) operates the Terminal Tags application (the “App”). This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our App.

Introduction

Terminal Tags is a menu-bar / tray utility for macOS, Windows, and Linux that tags and color-codes your terminal and application windows so you can tell them apart at a glance. Window tagging runs on your device. A small amount of data is exchanged with our servers to sign you in and confirm what you have purchased, as described below.

Information We Collect

Desktop Application Window tagging works on your device. Your tags, colors, window assignments, and settings are stored locally and are not uploaded to us. Account and Purchase When you sign in, the app exchanges your Bravely Account identifier, email address, a randomly generated device identifier, and basic device metadata (platform, app version, device name) with our servers so we can sign you in and confirm your purchase. No window titles, terminal output, or command history is ever transmitted. Analytics and Diagnostics The app records aggregate product analytics (app launches, tag creations, screen views) and crash and error reports so we can keep it reliable. Events are keyed to an anonymous install identifier, and to your Bravely Account where that is needed to troubleshoot access to what you bought. You can disable analytics from the app's settings.

Accessibility & Window Permissions

On macOS, Terminal Tags requests Accessibility and Screen Recording permissions to read window geometry and titles so it can draw color tags over the windows you choose. On Windows, Terminal Tags uses standard Win32 window APIs that do not require additional permissions. These capabilities are used solely to render tags on your chosen windows. Window contents are never transmitted, uploaded, or shared.

Purchases & Entitlements

Terminal Tags is a paid app. We store your Bravely Account identifier, email address, purchase and entitlement status, and the transaction identifiers from whichever store or checkout billed you, so we can unlock the app on the devices you own. Your account identifier, device identifier, and a cached entitlement are stored locally so the app keeps working briefly while you are offline. Payment card details are handled by the payment provider that billed you and never reach Bravely Studios LLC.

Information We Do Not Collect

We do not collect any of the following: • Terminal input, output, or command history • Clipboard contents • Screen recordings or screenshots • Location data • Contacts or address book data • Photos, camera, or microphone data • Browsing history • Advertising identifiers (IDFA, IDFV) The desktop application uses no advertising SDKs and no third-party tracking beyond the analytics disclosure above.

Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties. Your data is shared only in these limited circumstances: • With our merchant-of-record billing provider for payment processing. • With our entitlement provider for subscription entitlement management. • With hosting providers for website analytics and hosting of the bravely.dev license API. • With analytics providers for product and website analytics. • When required by law — we may disclose data to comply with legal obligations.

Data Retention & Deletion

Local data (tags, profiles, settings, cached entitlement) is retained until you delete it or uninstall the app. Server-side, we retain the association between your email, your device identifiers, and your subscription for as long as your account is active. You may request deletion of your server-side record by contacting us at support@bravely.dev. Upon receiving a deletion request, we will remove associated data within 30 days.

Children's Privacy

Terminal Tags is a developer tool and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you have rights over the personal data we hold about you. We honor these rights for everyone who asks, regardless of where you live. • Access — ask what personal data we hold about you and get a copy. • Correction — ask us to fix data that is wrong or incomplete. • Deletion — ask us to delete your personal data by emailing privacy@bravely.dev from the address on your account. Where a product has a built-in Delete Account control you can use that instead; bravely.dev/delete-account explains what applies to each product. • Portability — ask for your data in a portable, machine-readable format. • Objection and restriction — ask us to stop or limit certain processing. • Withdraw consent — where we rely on consent (marketing email, optional analytics), you can withdraw it at any time without affecting processing that already happened. • Non-discrimination — we will not degrade your service or charge you more for exercising any of these rights. EEA and UK residents also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. California residents may use an authorized agent; we may verify the agent's authority and confirm the request with you first. Other US states with comprehensive privacy laws (including Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Montana, and others as they take effect) have equivalent rights, including a right to appeal a denied request — reply to our decision email with "Appeal" and we will respond in writing within the period the law requires. Canadian residents have access, correction, and consent-withdrawal rights under PIPEDA; Australian residents have access and correction rights under the Australian Privacy Principles. To exercise any right, email privacy@bravely.dev. We respond within the timeframe the applicable law requires — generally 30 days under GDPR and 45 days under the CCPA, with an extension where the law permits one. We may need to verify your identity before acting, usually by confirming control of the email address on the account.

Legal Basis for Processing

If you are in the EEA or UK, we rely on these lawful bases under the GDPR and UK GDPR: • Performance of a contract — creating and securing your account, delivering the features you paid for, syncing your content, processing purchases, and providing support. • Legitimate interests — keeping the service secure and reliable, preventing fraud and abuse, understanding aggregate product usage, and improving the product. We balance these against your rights and do not use them to justify intrusive tracking. • Consent — marketing email, and optional analytics where a client offers a toggle. You can withdraw consent at any time. • Legal obligation — keeping tax, accounting, and consent records, and responding to lawful requests.

International Data Transfers

Bravely Studios LLC is a US company. We and our sub-processors process data in the United States and in other countries where they operate. For personal data originating in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, we rely on appropriate transfer safeguards in our processor agreements — such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses and the UK International Data Transfer Addendum — where those safeguards are required. Email privacy@bravely.dev if you want more detail about the safeguards that apply to you.

California Notice at Collection

For California residents, the categories of personal information we collect for this product are: • Identifiers — your Bravely Account identifier, email address, and device or installation identifiers. • Commercial information — records of purchases, subscriptions, entitlements, trials, and refunds. • Internet or other electronic network activity — aggregate feature-usage events, app version, platform, crash and error reports. • Coarse geolocation — a country-level signal derived from your network connection, used for consent rules and tax. • Your content — only the content the product is built to store or sync for you, described in the sections above. We collect this from you, your device, and our own systems, and we use it to run the product, honor what you have bought, keep the service secure, and support you. We disclose it to the service providers listed under "Sub-processors," each for a business purpose under a written contract. We do not sell your personal information and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, as those terms are defined by the CCPA and CPRA, and we have not done so in the preceding 12 months. We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for any purpose that would trigger the right to limit. If that ever changes we will update this policy and provide the required opt-out before the practice begins. Retention is described under "Data Retention" above and, for account-level data, in the Bravely Account privacy policy.

Sub-processors

We use the following service providers to run this product. They receive only what they need to perform their service for us, and each is bound by the data-processing terms that apply to our use of their service. Where a provider is not yet covered by a written data-processing agreement with us, its entry below says so. If you need a data-processing agreement in place before you use this product, email privacy@bravely.dev: • Cloudflare, Inc. — hosting, the Workers runtime, D1 databases, R2 object storage, and bot protection for bravely.dev and our app subdomains. See cloudflare.com/privacypolicy. • Google LLC — Firebase Authentication, which backs Bravely Account sign-in (including Sign in with Google). See policies.google.com/privacy. • Apple Inc. — Sign in with Apple, and App Store purchase and receipt handling for our Apple platform apps. See apple.com/legal/privacy. • Paddle.com Market Ltd — our merchant of record for purchases made on the web or in our desktop apps. Paddle handles checkout, payment processing, invoicing, and sales tax/VAT. See paddle.com/legal/privacy. • RevenueCat, Inc. — validates App Store and Google Play receipts and reports subscription lifecycle events so we can unlock what you bought. See revenuecat.com/privacy. • PostHog Inc. — product analytics for aggregate feature usage and reliability. See posthog.com/privacy. • Resend Inc. — sends our transactional email (sign-in codes, receipts, password resets, support replies). See resend.com/legal/privacy-policy. If we add or change a sub-processor in a way that materially changes how your data is processed, we will update this policy and give additional notice where the law or our data-processing commitments require it.

Security

We protect your data with authenticated accounts, encryption in transit, access controls on our backend systems, and a deliberately small number of people who can reach production. No system is perfectly secure, and we do not claim guarantees we have not built and verified. Where a product makes a specific security claim, that claim appears in the app-specific sections above and is limited to what we have actually shipped. If we become aware of a breach affecting your personal data, we will notify you and the relevant regulators as required by law.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make a material change — a new category of data, a new sub-processor, a new purpose, or a new legal basis — we will update the "Last updated" and "Effective" dates and give additional notice where the law requires it. Where a change requires fresh consent under the GDPR, UK GDPR, CASL, or a similar regime, we will ask for it before relying on the new purpose. Non-material changes (typos, clarifications, link fixes) are reflected by updating the "Last updated" date.
