Privacy Policy — HawPeek
HawPeek ("the Software") is a file explorer that runs entirely on your computer. Aquifiera Intelligence AB ("we") built it so that your files and your activity stay on your machine.
What the Software does not do
- It does not send your files, file names, folder contents, search queries, or usage history to us or to any third party.
- It contains no telemetry, analytics, advertising, or tracking.
- It contains no network client. The Software makes no network requests of its own. When you open a folder on a network drive or share, Windows accesses it on your behalf, exactly as File Explorer would.
What stays on your computer
The Software saves its settings and history locally, in
%APPDATA%\HawPeek (or the folder set in
HAWPEEK_APPDATA):
| Data | Why |
|---|---|
| Open tabs, window layout, theme, interface scale | To restore your workspace |
| Per-folder view settings, labels, tags | Your choices for folders and files |
| Recent places, open counts and recency | Recent list and favorites suggestions |
| Favorites, Quick access pins, closed tabs | Navigation features you use |
Search index (index.json) |
Faster search; built only when you search |
| Crash logs | Written locally if the Software crashes, so you can choose to send one to support |
You can delete this folder at any time. Uninstalling with
-RemoveUserData removes it.
Crash logs are never sent automatically. If you email one to support, we use it only to diagnose the problem and delete it when the issue is resolved.
Microsoft Store
When you get the Software from the Microsoft Store, Microsoft processes your purchase, licence, and download under Microsoft's own privacy statement. We receive aggregate sales and crash statistics from Microsoft as described in its developer agreement; we do not receive your files or browsing activity.
Support email
If you contact us, we use your email address and message only to answer you. We keep support correspondence no longer than needed to handle your request, and you can ask us to delete it.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you can ask us for access to, correction of, or deletion of personal data we hold about you (in practice, only support correspondence), and you can complain to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (IMY).
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update the date above and publish the new version on this page.
