Privacy Policy — PrintScreen.ly

Last updated: May 13, 2026 · Effective: May 13, 2026

Bravely Studios LLC (“we,” “our,” or “us”) operates the PrintScreen.ly application (the “App”). This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our App.

Introduction

PrintScreen.ly includes Mac and Windows desktop apps, a web dashboard, and companion mobile apps on supported builds. Most capture and markup actions happen locally on your device. We collect only the data needed to authenticate you, sync screenshots when you choose cloud features, verify Pro access, deliver updates, and understand aggregate product usage.

Account & Authentication Data

When you create or use a PrintScreen.ly account, we collect the email address tied to that account. Depending on which sign-in method you use, we may also store password hashes, one-time login codes, session tokens, and the provider identifiers returned by Apple or Google. Magic-code emails are delivered through our transactional email provider. Login sessions for the web dashboard are stored in secure cookies.

Screenshots & Cloud Sync

Desktop and mobile captures stay on your device unless you explicitly upload them or enable cloud sync. When you use cloud sync, uploaded screenshots and their metadata are stored in Bravely-managed storage so they can appear in the web dashboard and on your other signed-in devices. Pro accounts currently have a 2 GB synced-storage cap per account. Shared links you create can be accessed by anyone who has the link until you delete the item or remove the share.

Purchases, Entitlements & Device Registration

Web purchases are processed by our merchant-of-record billing provider. We store your Bravely Account identifier, contact email, plan status, transaction and entitlement identifiers supplied by our billing systems, plus device identifiers, device names, platform, app version, and last-seen timestamps so we can sync purchases, show your active devices, and enforce the 10-device limit for Pro accounts.

Analytics

The PrintScreen.ly website uses aggregate traffic reporting. The website, web dashboard, and supported native apps also use product analytics such as feature usage, session flow, error states, and app version. We do not send screenshot contents, filenames, image text, clipboard contents, or folder paths to analytics. Supported apps and the web dashboard include a setting to disable product analytics; aggregate site traffic reporting remains active.

Permissions

On macOS, PrintScreen.ly uses Screen Recording permission solely to capture screenshots you request. On iPhone and Android, supported builds may request camera or photo-library access so you can capture, import, save, or share screenshots and marked-up images. On Windows, PrintScreen.ly uses standard screen-capture APIs and local file access. We use these permissions only to perform the action you initiated.

Information We Do Not Collect

We do not collect payment card details, contacts, microphone recordings, advertising identifiers, or your browsing history outside PrintScreen.ly. We do not receive screenshot contents from local-only workflows. Screenshot pixels and image metadata reach our servers only when you choose a cloud feature such as upload, sync, or web sharing.

Third-Party Services

We share the minimum information required to operate the product with: • Web billing provider - web billing, invoicing, and tax handling • Entitlement provider - entitlement storage and purchase restoration • Hosting and storage providers - hosting, database storage, object storage, and aggregate web analytics • Product analytics provider - product analytics • Apple or Google - only when you use those identity providers or store-managed purchase flows on supported builds • Our transactional email provider - to deliver login codes and support-related email We do not sell your data or share it for advertising.

Data Retention & Deletion

Local screenshots and settings stay on your device until you delete them. Account records, synced screenshots, device registrations, and entitlement data are retained while your account is active. If your subscription ends, paid cloud and cross-device features may stop working, but we do not promise automatic deletion of synced files solely because billing ended. You can delete your account from the web dashboard or by emailing support@bravely.dev. Account deletion removes your sessions, device registrations, and dashboard data, and any screenshots you delete are purged from storage in our background cleanup flow within 30 days.

Children's Privacy

PrintScreen.ly is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it promptly.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you have rights over the personal data we hold about you. We honor these rights for everyone who asks, regardless of where you live. • Access — ask what personal data we hold about you and get a copy. • Correction — ask us to fix data that is wrong or incomplete. • Deletion — ask us to delete your personal data by emailing privacy@bravely.dev from the address on your account. Where a product has a built-in Delete Account control you can use that instead; bravely.dev/delete-account explains what applies to each product. • Portability — ask for your data in a portable, machine-readable format. • Objection and restriction — ask us to stop or limit certain processing. • Withdraw consent — where we rely on consent (marketing email, optional analytics), you can withdraw it at any time without affecting processing that already happened. • Non-discrimination — we will not degrade your service or charge you more for exercising any of these rights. EEA and UK residents also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. California residents may use an authorized agent; we may verify the agent's authority and confirm the request with you first. Other US states with comprehensive privacy laws (including Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Montana, and others as they take effect) have equivalent rights, including a right to appeal a denied request — reply to our decision email with "Appeal" and we will respond in writing within the period the law requires. Canadian residents have access, correction, and consent-withdrawal rights under PIPEDA; Australian residents have access and correction rights under the Australian Privacy Principles. To exercise any right, email privacy@bravely.dev. We respond within the timeframe the applicable law requires — generally 30 days under GDPR and 45 days under the CCPA, with an extension where the law permits one. We may need to verify your identity before acting, usually by confirming control of the email address on the account.

Legal Basis for Processing

If you are in the EEA or UK, we rely on these lawful bases under the GDPR and UK GDPR: • Performance of a contract — creating and securing your account, delivering the features you paid for, syncing your content, processing purchases, and providing support. • Legitimate interests — keeping the service secure and reliable, preventing fraud and abuse, understanding aggregate product usage, and improving the product. We balance these against your rights and do not use them to justify intrusive tracking. • Consent — marketing email, and optional analytics where a client offers a toggle. You can withdraw consent at any time. • Legal obligation — keeping tax, accounting, and consent records, and responding to lawful requests.

International Data Transfers

Bravely Studios LLC is a US company. We and our sub-processors process data in the United States and in other countries where they operate. For personal data originating in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, we rely on appropriate transfer safeguards in our processor agreements — such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses and the UK International Data Transfer Addendum — where those safeguards are required. Email privacy@bravely.dev if you want more detail about the safeguards that apply to you.

California Notice at Collection

For California residents, the categories of personal information we collect for this product are: • Identifiers — your Bravely Account identifier, email address, and device or installation identifiers. • Commercial information — records of purchases, subscriptions, entitlements, trials, and refunds. • Internet or other electronic network activity — aggregate feature-usage events, app version, platform, crash and error reports. • Coarse geolocation — a country-level signal derived from your network connection, used for consent rules and tax. • Your content — only the content the product is built to store or sync for you, described in the sections above. We collect this from you, your device, and our own systems, and we use it to run the product, honor what you have bought, keep the service secure, and support you. We disclose it to the service providers listed under "Sub-processors," each for a business purpose under a written contract. We do not sell your personal information and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, as those terms are defined by the CCPA and CPRA, and we have not done so in the preceding 12 months. We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for any purpose that would trigger the right to limit. If that ever changes we will update this policy and provide the required opt-out before the practice begins. Retention is described under "Data Retention" above and, for account-level data, in the Bravely Account privacy policy.

Sub-processors

We use the following service providers to run this product. They receive only what they need to perform their service for us, and each is bound by the data-processing terms that apply to our use of their service. Where a provider is not yet covered by a written data-processing agreement with us, its entry below says so. If you need a data-processing agreement in place before you use this product, email privacy@bravely.dev: • Cloudflare, Inc. — hosting, the Workers runtime, D1 databases, R2 object storage, and bot protection for bravely.dev and our app subdomains. See cloudflare.com/privacypolicy. • Google LLC — Firebase Authentication, which backs Bravely Account sign-in (including Sign in with Google). See policies.google.com/privacy. • Apple Inc. — Sign in with Apple, and App Store purchase and receipt handling for our Apple platform apps. See apple.com/legal/privacy. • Paddle.com Market Ltd — our merchant of record for purchases made on the web or in our desktop apps. Paddle handles checkout, payment processing, invoicing, and sales tax/VAT. See paddle.com/legal/privacy. • RevenueCat, Inc. — validates App Store and Google Play receipts and reports subscription lifecycle events so we can unlock what you bought. See revenuecat.com/privacy. • PostHog Inc. — product analytics for aggregate feature usage and reliability. See posthog.com/privacy. • Resend Inc. — sends our transactional email (sign-in codes, receipts, password resets, support replies). See resend.com/legal/privacy-policy. If we add or change a sub-processor in a way that materially changes how your data is processed, we will update this policy and give additional notice where the law or our data-processing commitments require it.

Security

We protect your data with authenticated accounts, encryption in transit, access controls on our backend systems, and a deliberately small number of people who can reach production. No system is perfectly secure, and we do not claim guarantees we have not built and verified. Where a product makes a specific security claim, that claim appears in the app-specific sections above and is limited to what we have actually shipped. If we become aware of a breach affecting your personal data, we will notify you and the relevant regulators as required by law.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make a material change — a new category of data, a new sub-processor, a new purpose, or a new legal basis — we will update the "Last updated" and "Effective" dates and give additional notice where the law requires it. Where a change requires fresh consent under the GDPR, UK GDPR, CASL, or a similar regime, we will ask for it before relying on the new purpose. Non-material changes (typos, clarifications, link fixes) are reflected by updating the "Last updated" date.
