No data collection

Installory does not collect personal data. It does not send package inventory, package names, install locations, generated scripts, settings, or scan results to a server.

No network transmission of package inventory

Installory is designed to run without network calls. Package descriptions are bundled with the app, and package inventory is read from local metadata on your Mac. Your package inventory is not uploaded, synced, sold, or shared.

Local storage on your Mac

Installory stores local package metadata and app preferences locally on your Mac, inside the app's sandbox container. This local data exists so the app can show inventory state, scan history, settings, and related package information.

User-granted directory access

Installory is sandboxed and uses the macOS folder picker for access to package-manager directories outside its container. Directory access is read-only and user-granted. Installory persists access using macOS security-scoped bookmarks so it can scan the same selected folders later.

Cleanup scripts are manual

Installory does not execute cleanup scripts, run uninstall commands, remove packages, or modify package-manager directories. When you request cleanup, the app generates a script or command for you to review and run manually in Terminal.

Exports stay on your Mac

When you choose Export Inventory in the app, Installory writes a CSV or Markdown file to the location you pick in the save dialog. The contents never leave your device. No upload, no telemetry, no copy elsewhere.

Provenance scope

The current App Store release does not read shell history or AI assistant transcripts. Provenance collection from those sources is disabled and, if ever enabled in a future release, will be opt-in per source.
