Privacy Policy

AEShot for Mac and Windows · Effective 2 October 2026

In short: AEShot does not collect, store or share any personal data. Everything it captures, recognizes and records stays on your device.

What AEShot does with your data

AEShot takes screenshots and screen recordings when you ask it to, and recognizes text in them when you use Capture Text. All of this happens on your device. Screenshots and recordings are saved only where you choose (by default, the AEShot folder in your Pictures folder) or copied to your clipboard. Unsaved recordings are kept in AEShot's own cache folder on your device and are deleted automatically after seven days.

What AEShot does not do

No account and no sign-in.
No analytics, tracking, advertising or third-party SDKs.
No uploads: AEShot sends nothing to any server, including ours.
No sale or sharing of data, because none is collected.

Permissions

Screen Recording (Mac) lets AEShot capture your screen; it is used only while you capture or record. Accessibility (Mac, optional) is used only by Auto-Scroll to scroll the area you selected. Microphone (optional) is used only while you record with the microphone turned on. You can withdraw any permission at any time in your system settings.

Settings

Your preferences, such as shortcuts and the save folder, are stored on your device and never leave it.

This website

aeshot.com uses no cookies, analytics, advertising or third-party content, and the server keeps no access logs.

Children

AEShot collects no data from anyone, including children.

Changes

If this policy ever changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new effective date.
