The short version

GuideLab is a local desktop app. Your guides, screenshots, and project files are stored on your own computer and never uploaded anywhere. This website has no user accounts and doesn't run any analytics or tracking scripts.

What this website collects

Visiting guidelab.app doesn't set any tracking or analytics cookies. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com / fonts.gstatic.com), which may see your IP address as part of serving the font files. We don't receive or store that information ourselves.

Purchases (LemonSqueezy)

Payments are processed by LemonSqueezy, acting as merchant of record. When you buy a license, LemonSqueezy, not GuideLab, collects your email address and payment details, handles sales tax/VAT, and emails you your license key. We don't receive or store your card details at any point. See LemonSqueezy's privacy policy for how they handle that data.

The desktop app

The app itself has no account system and no backend server of its own. The only network request it ever makes is a one-time license activation call: when you enter your license key, the app sends that key and your computer's hostname to LemonSqueezy's license-verification API to activate it. After that, the app checks your license locally and doesn't contact the network again on later launches. Nothing about your guides, screenshots, or how you use the app is ever transmitted.

Your rights

Since we don't hold any personal data of our own (LemonSqueezy holds your purchase/email data as merchant of record), most data requests should go to LemonSqueezy directly via their own privacy tools. For anything else, contact us below.
