Your files stay on your Mac. Always.
2. What Desk Rug Does Not Do
- Does not send your files, images, or data to any server
- Does not track your usage or behavior
- Does not require an internet connection to function
- Does not contain analytics or telemetry

Desk Rug stores its configuration preferences (chosen rug pattern, floor image, hotkey settings, schedule) locally on your Mac using macOS preferences system.
This data never leaves your device unless you explicitly export or share it.
