Privacy Policy


    Effective Date: October 2025

    EZcap is committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our screen capture application ("EZcap," "Application," or "App"). By using EZcap, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

    1. Information We Collect

    A. No Personal Data Collection

    EZcap does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information about you. We do not require account registration, email addresses, names, or any other personal identifiers to use our Application.

    B. Local Capture Data

    When you capture screenshots, the following information is processed and stored locally on your device only if you choose to save:

    • Screenshot images you capture
    • File metadata (timestamps, file names) if you save captures to your device
    • Application preferences and settings

    Important: This data remains exclusively on your local device and is never transmitted to our servers or any third parties. Screenshots copied to your clipboard are handled by your operating system and remain under your control.

    C. No Network Data Transmission

    EZcap operates entirely offline on your Windows device. The Application does not connect to the internet, does not communicate with external servers, and does not transmit any data about you, your captures, or your usage to EZcap or any external parties.

    2. How We Use Information

    Since we don't collect personal data, our use of information is limited to:

    • Local Processing Only: Screenshot captures are processed locally on your device when you initiate a capture
    • Clipboard Operations: When you actively choose to copy a capture, it's placed on your system clipboard for you to paste elsewhere
    • Local Storage: When you actively choose to save captures, they're stored in your selected location on your device
    • Application Functionality: All data processing serves the core purpose of screen capture functionality that you directly control

    3. Data Storage and Security

    A. Local Storage

    All captured screenshots (when saved) and application settings are stored locally on your Windows device. You maintain complete control over this data.

    B. Data Security

    While we don't collect data centrally, we encourage you to:

    • Keep your device secure with appropriate antivirus software
    • Regularly update your operating system
    • Use standard device security practices
    • Be mindful of what content you capture and where you save it

    C. Data Removal

    You can delete your saved screenshots at any time through your file system. Uninstalling the Application will remove the application files but will not automatically delete screenshots you've saved to your device, as you maintain full control over your captured content.

    4. Third-Party Services

    EZcap does not connect to, integrate with, or use any third-party services. The Application operates completely independently on your local device without any external dependencies or network connections.

    5. No Data Sharing

    Since we don't collect personal data, we have nothing to share. EZcap does not:

    • Sell or rent any user information
    • Share data with advertisers or marketing companies
    • Provide data to third parties for any commercial purposes
    • Store or process data on remote servers
    • Transmit screenshots or any usage information to external parties

    6. System Permissions and User Control

    Why EZcap Requires Certain Permissions

    To provide screen capture functionality, EZcap requires certain system-level permissions. These permissions are only activated when you explicitly initiate an action:

    • Screen Access: Required to capture screenshots when you activate the capture function
    • Clipboard Access: Only accessed when you actively choose the "Copy to Clipboard" option
    • File System Access: Only accessed when you actively choose the "Save" option and select a save location

    Critical Clarification: These permissions enable functionality that you directly control and initiate. The Application does not use these permissions to passively monitor, collect, or transmit any information. Every use of these permissions is triggered by your explicit action (clicking to capture, choosing to copy, or choosing to save). We do not access your screen, clipboard, or files at any other time.

    7. Children's Privacy

    EZcap does not collect any personal information from anyone, including children under 13. The Application can be safely used by individuals of any age without privacy concerns regarding data collection from our company.

    However, please note that screenshots may contain personal information depending on what is captured. Parents and guardians should supervise children's use of screen capture tools.

    8. International Users and Privacy Regulations

    EZcap respects privacy rights worldwide. While we do not collect or transmit personal data to our servers, we acknowledge that:

    • Data Processing: Even local data processing may be subject to privacy regulations in your jurisdiction
    • User Responsibility: You are responsible for ensuring your use of EZcap complies with applicable laws in your region, including GDPR (European Union), CCPA (California), and other privacy regulations
    • Personal Data in Screenshots: Screenshots you capture may contain personal data of others (faces, names, documents, etc.). You must handle such data in compliance with applicable privacy laws
    • Your Rights: We respect your privacy rights under applicable laws. Since all data remains local and under your control, you have complete authority over access, deletion, and management of any data created by the Application

    If you have questions about how EZcap relates to specific privacy regulations in your jurisdiction, please contact us.

    9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

    We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal compliance. Any changes will be posted within the Application or on our website. The "Effective Date" at the top of this policy indicates when the latest version became effective.

    Continued use of the Application after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.

    10. Your Rights and Control

    You maintain complete control over all data created by EZcap:

    • Access: You can view all captures you've saved through your file system
    • Deletion: You can delete saved screenshots at any time or uninstall the Application
    • Modification: You can edit or modify saved screenshots using any image editing software
    • Control: All captured content remains under your exclusive control on your device

    Since we do not collect or store your personal data on our servers, traditional data subject requests (such as requesting access to data we hold about you) are not applicable - you already have complete access and control over all data.

    11. Technical Information

    For transparency, here's what happens technically when you use EZcap:

    1. You activate the screen capture tool via the application
    2. The Application captures the selected screen area only when you initiate the capture
    3. You choose to either copy to clipboard, save to your device, or quit
    4. If copying: the image is placed on your system clipboard (controlled by your OS)
    5. If saving: the image is saved to your chosen location on your device
    6. No data is transmitted to EZcap servers or any external services
    7. The Application makes no network connections whatsoever

    12. Content Responsibility

    While EZcap does not collect or access your captured content, you are solely responsible for:

    • Ensuring captured content complies with applicable laws in your jurisdiction
    • Respecting copyright and intellectual property rights of others
    • Complying with privacy laws when capturing content containing personal data of others
    • Protecting sensitive or confidential information in your captures
    • Managing and securing your saved screenshots

    14. Transparency and Verification

    For users who wish to verify our privacy claims, you may use network monitoring tools to confirm that EZcap makes no network connections during operation. This is offered as an additional transparency measure for technically inclined users.

    This Privacy Policy is effective as of the date listed above and applies to all users of the EZcap application.
