Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 11, 2026
Dimmerly (“the App”) is developed by Zoran Olujic. This privacy policy explains how the App handles your information.
Data Collection
Dimmerly does not collect or transmit personal data to the developer or to developer-operated servers. The App operates entirely on your device.
What the App Stores Locally
The following data is stored locally on your Mac using UserDefaults and is never sent anywhere:
- Your brightness presets and preferences
- Keyboard shortcut configurations
- App settings, such as launch at login, fade transition, idle timer, schedules, and color temperature preferences
- Approximate latitude and longitude if you use current location or manually enter coordinates for sunrise, sunset, and automatic color temperature features
This data stays on your device and is not accessible to anyone, including the developer.
You can delete stored location coordinates in the App by choosing Clear Location. Other preferences can be changed or reset in the App, and all locally stored app data can be removed by deleting the App and its local container data from your Mac.
Network Access
Dimmerly does not send data to developer-operated servers and does not use analytics, advertising, AI, or tracking SDKs. The App does not require an internet connection for core display control features.
If you choose “Use Current Location” for sunrise/sunset schedules, macOS Location Services may use Apple-provided location infrastructure to determine your location.
Third-Party Services
Dimmerly does not use any third-party analytics, advertising, AI, or tracking services.
Permissions
Dimmerly may request Accessibility permission to enable global keyboard shortcuts. This permission is used solely for detecting keyboard shortcuts and is not used to monitor or record any user activity.
Children’s Privacy
The App does not knowingly collect any information from children.
Changes to This Policy
If this policy is updated, the changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
