Nothing to collect

The app

animaEngine makes no network connection of any kind: no telemetry, no crash reporting, no update checks, no accounts, no advertising. Nothing about you, your computer or what is on your screen leaves it.

What it keeps stays on your computer, in your own user’s folders:

• its settings and your scenes, in your configuration folder (~/.config/animaengine on Linux, %APPDATA%\animaEngine on Windows);
• the pictures you add, in its asset library, and decoded copies of them in a cache folder so they load faster;
• after a crash, a copy of the scene from just before it, for anima-engine --recover.

Appearance → About → Copy diagnostic report puts a short text on your clipboard — the app’s version, your system’s name, your graphics card and the app’s latest warnings, never the paths of your files. The app sends it nowhere; it goes only where you paste it.

This website

The site itself sets no cookies, stores nothing in your browser, runs no analytics or advertising, and loads nothing from other sites: its fonts, pictures and scripts are served from animaengine.eu itself. Its scripts only make the page interactive — playing the clips, suggesting a download for your system — and send nothing anywhere.

The site is served by Cloudflare. Like any web server, Cloudflare receives your IP address and the usual request details with each request; see Cloudflare’s privacy policy. Downloads come from GitHub’s release pages, under the GitHub privacy statement.
