ControlPrivacy Policy
Control has no accounts and includes no analytics, advertising or tracking. It lets you see and use your Mac from your other devices, so some things have to travel. This is all of it.
Between your own devices
Your Mac’s screen and sound, your typing, and anything you send to the Mac go only between your devices, encrypted end to end. We can’t see any of it.
Control’s relay servers
When your devices can’t connect to each other directly, servers we run forward the encrypted connection. They see the internet addresses involved and how much data passes, but can’t read it, and they log none of it — they keep only hourly totals of the traffic they carry.
Forward Notifications
Only if you turn it on, on the Mac. Your Mac’s notifications are sealed with a key your devices agree on when you pair them, then pass through a small service we run on Cloudflare to Apple’s push service, which delivers them to your iPhone or iPad. That service sees your device’s push token and the time, but can’t read the notification. It logs neither; to limit abuse it keeps only a one-way hash of the token.
Report a Problem
Only when you choose it, Control prepares an email to us with recent logs attached — device and Mac names and connection details, nothing from your screen. Nothing is sent until you send that email.
Updates
Control for Mac checks our update server once a day for a new version, sending only the version it is running.
Your Mac’s password
If you use Unlock with Face ID, the password stays in your device’s Keychain — not in iCloud — and is typed only at your Mac’s lock screen.
Purchases
Subscriptions are handled by Apple through the App Store. We never see your payment details.
