Privacy policy
Last updated 10 August 2026
The short version
Reframe is a desktop application with no backend. It has no accounts, no sign-in and no servers of ours for your content to reach. Your recordings, project files and exports stay on your own computer.
What the app stores
- Recordings. Raw captures are written to your operating system's application-data folder (for example
~/.config/Reframe/recordings/on Linux). Closing the editor without saving a project deletes them. - Project files. Saved as
.reframe.jsonwherever you choose, by default in your Documents folder. They reference the recording and your edits — nothing else. - Preferences. Window position, chosen language and editor settings, stored locally.
What the app sends
There is no analytics, no telemetry and no crash reporting. The only network request Reframe makes on its own is an update check against the GitHub Releases API. That request goes to GitHub, not to us, and is subject to GitHub's privacy statement. You can ignore or disable update prompts and the app keeps working.
Permissions
Reframe asks your operating system for screen-recording permission, and for microphone and camera permission only if you enable those inputs. The captured streams are processed locally and written to disk. Revoking a permission in your OS settings immediately stops the corresponding capture.
