Your servers, your Mac, nothing leaves

Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 4, 2026

The short version

Server Glance has no account system, no backend, no cloud, and no analytics. We never receive, store, or transmit your data. Everything — your server list, credentials, and metrics — stays on your Mac. The app's only network activity is the direct SSH connections you set up to your own servers.

1. Who we are

Server Glance ("the app") is a native macOS menu bar application developed by FKTYazilim ("we", "us"). This policy explains how the app handles your information. It applies to the Mac app distributed on the Mac App Store.

2. What we collect

Nothing. We do not operate any server or backend that receives your data. The app contains no analytics, no telemetry, no crash-reporting SDKs, no advertising, and no third-party trackers. We have no way to see who you are, which servers you monitor, or how you use the app.

3. Where your data lives

All data is stored locally on your Mac, inside the app's sandbox:

  • Server list & settings — saved in a local JSON file in your Application Support directory. This never leaves your device.
  • SSH passwords & key passphrases — stored only in the macOS Keychain. They are never written to the config file and never transmitted to us.
  • Private key files — accessed through a macOS security-scoped bookmark to the file you selected. The key is read locally to connect and is never copied off your device.
  • Metrics & history — CPU, RAM, disk, uptime and load values are kept only in memory for the live view and short-term sparkline. They are not uploaded anywhere.

4. Network connections

The app makes outbound SSH connections only to the servers you add, in order to run read-only commands and collect metrics. It makes no other network requests. Purchases and app updates are handled entirely by Apple through the Mac App Store under Apple's own privacy terms.

5. Third parties

We do not share, sell, or rent your information — because we never receive it in the first place. The app bundles no third-party services that collect data.

6. Children's privacy

The app is intended for developers and system administrators and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children.

7. Changes to this policy

If we update this policy, we will revise the "Last updated" date above and post the new version at this URL. Because the app collects no data, material changes are unlikely.
