Linea — legal
Privacy policy
Last updated: July 3, 2026
Linea is built by playas.dev, an independent software studio. The short version: the app does not track you, the website only counts visits in aggregate, and the only personal data we ever touch is what Stripe needs to bill a subscription.
1. What the app collects
Nothing. Linea has no telemetry, no analytics SDK, no crash reporter that phones home, and no account system. Everything you do in Linea stays on your Mac.
- No usage tracking or behavioral analytics inside the app.
- No content you create or open is ever transmitted to us.
- Update checks (Sparkle) request a static file that lists the latest version; they do not identify you.
2. What this website collects
We use a self-hosted instance of Umami (an open-source, cookie-less analytics tool, running on our own server) to count page views and downloads in aggregate. It does not use cookies, does not fingerprint you, and stores no personal data. No data is shared with third-party ad or analytics companies.
3. Purchases and licenses
Payments are processed by Stripe. We never see or store your card details. To issue and renew your license, our billing service stores the minimum it needs:
- A hash of your email address, your Stripe customer and subscription identifiers.
- An anonymous device identifier and an optional device name, used to bind the license to your Mac.
- License status and renewal dates.
Your license is verified offline on your Mac with a public key — the app does not need to contact our servers to keep working. Stripe's own processing is covered by the Stripe Privacy Policy.
4. Emails
We only email you about your purchase (receipts, renewal notices via Stripe) or when you write to us. There is no newsletter, and we will never sell or share your address.
5. Your rights
We operate from Spain (European Union) and honor GDPR rights — access, rectification, deletion and portability. Cancelling your subscription and asking us to delete your billing record removes everything we hold about you.
6. Contact
Privacy questions, data requests or anything else: contact@runlinea.com.
Linea for iPhone & iPad
Linea on the App Store is a free companion to the Mac app. It pairs directly with your own Mac and mirrors your terminals and agents on your phone. It follows the same principle as the desktop app: it collects nothing.
- No account, no purchases. The iOS app has no sign-in and no in-app purchases — any subscription lives with the Mac app.
- Peer-to-peer only. The app connects straight to your Mac, over your local network or an encrypted relay. Your terminals, conversations and code travel only between your own devices — they never reach our servers or any third party.
- Camera. Used solely to scan the pairing QR code shown by Linea on your Mac. Frames are processed on-device to read the code and are never stored or transmitted.
- Local network. Used only to find and connect to your Mac on the same Wi‑Fi for a faster, private link.
- No analytics or tracking. The iOS app bundles no analytics, advertising or tracking SDKs.
Want to try it without a Mac? The app's built-in demo runs entirely on bundled sample data — no pairing, no account, nothing leaves the device.
