The app

CineNotch doesn’t collect anything. It has no account, no analytics and no crash reporting, and it doesn’t connect to any server.

• Camera frames are analyzed on your Mac to tell where you’re looking. They are never stored and never sent anywhere.
• The camera is on only while a Picture in Picture video is docked and the glance is turned on.
• Screen Recording is used to show the Picture in Picture window inside the island. Only that window is captured, and nothing leaves your Mac.
• The calibration and your settings stay on your Mac.

The source code is public, so you can check all of this on GitHub.
