Privacy
Last updated: 15 November 2026
In short: the Brimline app collects nothing and sends nothing. This website sets no cookies, uses no analytics and loads nothing from other sites. If you write to us with the contact form, your message is stored so that we can read and answer it. In this notice, “we” means the developer of Brimline.
The app
- Brimline works only on your PC. It does not connect to the internet and does not send usage statistics, crash reports or anything else.
- It reads what Windows already knows: the media that is playing, the time, the state of your microphone and speakers, and figures for the processor, memory, graphics card, network and battery. It shows them on the bar and keeps nothing else.
- Your settings, your themes and a small log for troubleshooting are stored on your PC in
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Brimline. The log notes events such as which output device or media app you chose and which program the launcher started. It never contains what you listen to, and log files older than two weeks are deleted. - You can delete that folder at any time. In the app, Settings › About › Remove data and quit deletes it for you and closes Brimline.
- If you get Brimline on Steam, Valve handles your Steam account and purchase under its own privacy policy.
This website
- The site is hosted by Cloudflare. To deliver the pages and protect the site from attacks, Cloudflare processes technical data such as your IP address, the address of the page you open and your browser type. Cloudflare describes this in its privacy policy.
- We have not switched on visitor logs or analytics. The site sets no cookies, shows no ads, and its fonts and images come from the site itself.
The contact form
- What is stored: your message, your email address if you give one, and the time the message arrived. Your IP address and browser details are not stored with it.
- Where: in a Cloudflare D1 database located in Western Europe.
- Why: to read and answer your message. Your email address is used only for that; we send no newsletters. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in answering messages sent to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR); if you ask about Brimline before getting it, also steps before a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
- Protection against floods: the form counts how many messages come from one IP address within a minute and stops more than three. Cloudflare keeps that count for about a minute; it is not stored with your message.
- How long: we delete a message when it has been answered and is no longer needed. Messages older than one year are deleted automatically every day.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct or delete your message, and you can object to its use. Send your request with the contact form and tell us roughly when you wrote and, if you gave one, which email address you used, so that we can find your message. You can also complain to a data protection authority.
