Remotype Privacy Policy

The short version

Remotype collects no data. None. Everything you type stays between your phone and your computer.

What Remotype does with your input

Remotype turns your phone into a keyboard and trackpad for your computer.

• On Android, keystrokes and pointer movements are sent directly to the computer you paired with over Bluetooth, using the standard Bluetooth keyboard/mouse (HID) protocol — exactly like a hardware Bluetooth keyboard.
• On iOS, keystrokes and pointer movements are sent directly to the Remotype Host app running on your own computer, over your **local Wi-Fi network**.

In both cases your input goes from your phone to your computer and nowhere else. Nothing is sent to Custavia or to any third party. Nothing is stored.

What Remotype does NOT do

• No analytics, telemetry, or crash reporting
• No advertising and no advertising identifiers
• No accounts, sign-ins, or profiles
• No collection of personal information of any kind
• No cloud services — the app makes no internet connections (the iOS app's only network use is discovering and talking to Remotype Host on your own local network)

Permissions the app asks for

• Bluetooth (Android) — required to act as a Bluetooth keyboard/mouse for your computer. Used for nothing else.
• Notifications (Android) — shows one persistent notification while the connection is active, so Android keeps it alive in the background.
• Local network (iOS) — required to find and connect to Remotype Host on your own Wi-Fi. Used for nothing else.

Settings stored on your device

Your preferences (pointer speed, dark-mode-related options, haptics, which computer you last connected to) are stored locally on your phone and never leave it. Uninstalling the app deletes them.

Children

Remotype does not collect data from anyone, including children.

Changes

If this policy ever changes, the updated version will be posted at this URL with a new effective date. Since the app makes no network connections, any future change could only apply to future versions of the app.
