Privacy policy

Last updated: 9 November 2026

BusyMouse does not collect, store or share any personal information.

• No data leaves your PC. BusyMouse makes no network connections: no telemetry, analytics, ads, accounts or update checks.
• Settings stay on your PC. Your choices (nudge style, interval, distance, theme and so on) are saved in a settings file in your user profile (%LOCALAPPDATA%\BusyMouse\settings.json, or the app's own storage when installed from the Microsoft Store). Uninstalling BusyMouse, or deleting that file, removes them.
• Pointer and lock state are used only on your PC. BusyMouse moves the pointer, checks whether you've used the mouse recently so it can skip a nudge, and, if you turn it on, notices when the PC is locked. None of this is recorded or sent anywhere.

The "no runtime" downloads from GitHub include a small launcher that, only if the .NET Runtime is missing and you agree, downloads it from Microsoft (aka.ms / dotnet.microsoft.com). Microsoft's privacy statement applies to that download. The Microsoft Store version doesn't need it.

This website

busymouse.pages.dev uses no cookies, analytics or trackers. It remembers your theme and accent choices in your browser's local storage, which never leaves your device. To show the latest download links it asks GitHub's public API for the newest release; GitHub's privacy statement applies to that request.
