Privacy
StagePaz has no accounts, no telemetry, and sends your work nowhere. Your songs, themes and playlists live on your computer, in Documents/StagePaz, and don't leave unless you take them out.
The only things that go out to the network
| What | When | What is sent |
|---|---|---|
| Checking for a new version | A few seconds after startup, at most once a day. Never with output screens open or something projected. Can be turned off in Settings → System. | Nothing beyond the request itself: your version travels in theUser-Agent header, as in any browser. |
| Downloading the update | Only if you ask for it. | Nothing. |
| Downloading a Bible from the catalogue | Only if you open the catalogue and press download. | Nothing. |
| The phone remote | Only if you turn it on. Off by default. | Nothing leaves your local network: the server is yours and only accepts connections from private addresses. |
What our server sees
What any web server sees when someone asks it for a file: an IP address, the time, and which file was requested. It isn't cross-referenced with anything, because there is nothing to cross-reference it with — there are no accounts and no install identifiers.
The beta waiting list
If you leave your email, it's kept for one thing: telling you when the beta is downloadable. It isn't sold or shared, and it's deleted when the beta stops being a beta. Write tohola@stagepaz.com and we'll delete it sooner.
The Bibles
Copyrighted versions aren't distributed with StagePaz and don't travel inside backups. Each module carries its attribution and licence, and is downloaded from whoever publishes it.
