The app
TOMS collects no personal data. It works entirely on your PC: no account, no telemetry, no ads, and it sends nothing over the internet.
Everything it creates stays on your PC: your captures (in the clipboard, in the app you paste them into, or in the toms folder on your Desktop) and your settings (drag_n_paste.json.txt).
The Microsoft Store handles purchase, licence and updates, and Windows may send crash reports to Microsoft, under the Microsoft privacy statement.
This website
turnoffmousescreen.com is a static site: no account, no form, no personal data collected directly.
It measures its audience with Google Analytics, only if you accept it in the banner shown on your first visit. If you refuse, Google Analytics is not loaded and no cookie is set.
If you accept, Google Analytics sets cookies and collects anonymous information:
- browser and device type
- operating system
- pages visited and visit length
- approximate country
This data is only used for statistics, to improve the site. Your choice is kept in your browser for 6 months; change it at any time with the Cookies link at the bottom of every page (refusing deletes the Google Analytics cookies). The site is served over HTTPS.
Session safety
Ctrl + Alt + D visually turns off a screen but does not lock your Windows session: anyone with physical access to the PC can use the open session while the screen is black. To secure your PC, use Win + L or any other lock method.
You use this feature at your own risk. The publisher cannot be held liable for any loss, damage or unauthorized access resulting from a session left unlocked.
