Privacy Policy
Landed doesn’t collect, store or share any personal data. It has no accounts, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking. Everything it shows is read on your Mac, and nothing about you or your files is sent to us.
What Landed reads on your Mac
- Your Downloads folder: file names, sizes and dates, so it can list them newest first.
- Where each file came from, from information macOS and your browser already attach to downloaded files (the web address and the app that saved it).
- The apps in your Applications folder and the installers macOS has recorded, so it can tell when an installer’s app is already installed.
- Which disk images are mounted, to match an installer to the app you installed from it.
- The contents of files with matching sizes, to check whether they’re identical copies. Only a fingerprint of each file is kept.
What Landed stores
Everything stays on your Mac. Landed notes the date a file landed and whether it’s pinned on the file itself, and keeps its settings and a small cache of file fingerprints and mounted disk images in its own sandboxed folder at ~/Library/Containers/me.dexco.Landed. Stashed files wait in a hidden Downloads/.Stashed folder, so they stay with your files, not the app’s. Landed runs in Apple’s App Sandbox.
Network
Landed makes one kind of network request. When a download is still in progress and the browser hasn’t recorded its full size, Landed asks the website the file is coming from how big it is, so it can show a progress bar. It asks for the size only, downloads nothing, and sends no information about you. Choosing Download Again or Copy Source Link uses the file’s original web address, only when you ask.
Your browser
Browsers tell macOS how far along each download is. Landed reads that to show progress, and when you click cancel it asks macOS to stop that download. If that doesn’t work, Landed opens your browser’s own Downloads list. Landed doesn’t control your browser or read anything else from it.
Notifications
If you stash a file, Landed posts a local notification on your Mac when it comes back. If you turn on “Tell me when a download finishes”, it posts one then too. Nothing is sent to a server.
Purchases
Landed Pro is bought through Apple’s App Store. Apple handles the payment; Landed only learns whether Pro is unlocked. Apple’s privacy policy covers your App Store account.
Children
Landed collects no data from anyone, including children.
