Privacy Policy
Last updated: 14 November 2026
In short: Volsetter collects no data. There is no account, no analytics, no advertising and no server of ours that your data goes through. This policy covers the Volsetter iPhone app and the Volsetter Mac app.
What stays on your devices
To remember each other, the apps store a pairing on your devices:
- on the iPhone, in its Keychain: the Mac's name and local address, an access token and the fingerprint of the Mac's certificate;
- on the Mac, in its Keychain: hashes of the paired iPhones' access tokens, and the Mac's own certificate and key.
The iPhone app also keeps a few settings in its preferences. None of this leaves your devices. Forgetting the Mac in the iPhone app, or removing the apps, deletes it.
Network
The iPhone finds your Mac on the local network (Bonjour) and connects to it directly over an encrypted connection. The apps make no connections to the internet. The Mac app only listens for paired iPhones on your local network.
Camera
The iPhone app uses the camera only to scan the pairing code shown by the Mac app. Images are not saved or sent anywhere.
Shortcuts and Siri
Volsetter's Shortcuts actions send the requested change straight to your paired Mac. Requests to Siri are handled by Apple under Apple's privacy policy.
This website
This site uses no cookies and no tracking. Like any web server, it may keep standard access logs (IP address, time, requested page) for security, deleted after a short period.
Children
Volsetter collects no data from anyone, including children.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new date.
