Privacy Policy
Last updated May 1, 2026
Moodwall is a desktop application that runs on your Mac. We've built it so that nothing you do in the app reaches us. There is no account, no analytics, no telemetry, and no server involved on our side. This page explains exactly what that means in practice.
The short version
- We don't collect anything from the app. No usage data, no identifiers, no diagnostics. Period.
- Everything stays on your Mac. Your board URL, your settings, and your downloaded pin images live in your local app container.
- We have no servers processing your data. There is no backend account associated with the app.
- When you visit this website, our hosting provider (Vercel) and our payment processor (Stripe / Paddle) collect the minimum needed to run their services.
Information the app handles
Data the app stores locally on your Mac
Moodwall stores the following only on your computer, in the macOS app container at ~/Library/Containers/com.trinta.moodwall/:
- The Pinterest board URL you've configured
- Your layout preferences (refresh interval, columns, colors, etc.)
- A local cache of pin images downloaded from Pinterest's CDN
- The composed wallpaper image(s) currently in use
None of this is transmitted to us. Uninstalling the app removes everything in the container.
Network requests the app makes
To fetch pins from your chosen board, Moodwall makes two kinds of unauthenticated HTTPS requests directly from your Mac:
- A request to Pinterest's public widget API (
widgets.pinterest.com) to retrieve the list of pins on a public board. - Image downloads from Pinterest's CDN (
i.pinimg.com) for the pins it will render into your wallpaper.
These requests are governed by Pinterest's own privacy policy. Moodwall does not send any identifying information with these requests beyond the standard browser-style user agent.
Information this website handles
This site (moodwall.app) is hosted on Vercel and uses minimal third-party services to operate:
- Hosting (Vercel) may log standard request metadata (IP address, user agent, request path) for security and availability purposes. See Vercel's privacy policy for details.
- Payments are handled by Stripe and/or Paddle. When you buy a license, your payment details go directly to them. We never see card numbers. We receive only the email address you use to receive your download link.
- The Mac App Store handles purchases made through Apple. We receive only the anonymized purchase information Apple provides.
Cookies & tracking
This website does not use advertising cookies, third-party trackers, or analytics that profile you across sites. The only cookies present are the ones strictly required for payment checkout to function (set by Stripe / Paddle on their own domains).
Your rights
Because we don't collect personal information through the app, there's usually nothing on our side to access, correct, or delete. If you've purchased a license, you can request information about, or deletion of, your purchase email by contacting us at hello@moodwall.app. Under the GDPR, UK GDPR, and CCPA, you have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection. We'll honor them within 30 days.
Children
Moodwall is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
Changes to this policy
If we ever change how the app handles data, we'll update this page and bump the "last updated" date at the top. Material changes will be communicated in the app and on the site.
