Privacy

Last updated 14 June 2026

Frame is built so your screenshots never leave your Mac. This page explains that plainly.

What stays on your Mac

Everything that touches your screenshot is processed locally:

• Screen capture, using Apple's ScreenCaptureKit.
• Text recognition and sensitive-data detection, using Apple's Vision framework and on-device matching.
• Redaction, beautify, and export rendering.

Your images, their contents, and anything Frame detects in them are never uploaded, logged, or sent to us or anyone else.

The only network calls Frame makes

• Update checks, to fetch the app's update feed and download a new version when you ask.
• License validation, to activate, validate, or deactivate your license key through Polar. This sends your key and a hashed device identifier, never your screenshots.

Payments

Purchases are handled by Polar as merchant of record. Frame never sees your card details. Refunds are available within 7 days.

Analytics

Frame does not embed third-party trackers. Any product analytics are privacy-respecting and opt-in, and never include the contents of a screenshot.
