Developer and local processing

ZerX is developed by Viacheslav Kuzmin. The App Store app does not send file names, file contents, scan results or usage data to the developer. It has no account, analytics, advertising or crash-reporting service. Files are processed on your Mac to calculate storage use and carry out deletion only when you confirm it.

Access to your files

Choose your home folder or another folder in the standard macOS dialog. ZerX scans and cleans accessible items within the folder you authorize, subject to macOS sandbox and privacy restrictions. Some protected locations remain inaccessible. File names, contents and scan results are not sent to the developer. Use Settings → File Access to select a different folder. Quitting ZerX ends its active access for that session; the saved permission can be used when you reopen it.

Storage and deletion

Scan results are held in memory during the session, replaced by later scans and discarded when the app exits. Preferences, including language, and a security-scoped folder bookmark are stored locally by macOS to remember your choices. They remain until reset or removed locally and are not uploaded. Removing only ZerX.app may leave these settings in its macOS container. Contact support for help removing local settings.

Items move to the Trash by default and can be restored in Finder until you empty it. Permanent deletion is a separate setting, off by default, and requires confirmation; it cannot be undone. Deleting selected files and removing ZerX settings are separate actions. The developer holds no account or server-side scan history to delete.

Updates

The App Store version updates through the App Store and makes no update requests itself. The planned direct-download version uses an optional update check, off by default, that requests the update feed on this website when enabled. The hosting service may receive ordinary connection data such as your IP address.

This website

This website uses no cookies, analytics, third-party scripts or external fonts. It is hosted on GitHub Pages. GitHub may process connection data and server logs according to its privacy statement; its retention rules apply to those logs.
