Stagelight privacy policy

Last updated 1 November 2026

Stagelight collects nothing. Your songs, Bibles, media and settings stay on your own computer, and we never see them.

Where your data lives

Everything you put into Stagelight is stored only on your computer, in %AppData%\Stagelight. Uninstalling leaves it there in case you reinstall, so delete that folder to remove it completely. Whoever runs Stagelight on a computer is responsible for what they store in it, such as names in an alert message.

The phone remote

Your phone talks directly to the laptop over your Wi-Fi or the laptop's own hotspot, not over the internet. Phones need the key in the laptop's QR code to control it, so treat that code like a password while you're connected to a shared network.

If you leave a tip

Tips are handled by Ko-fi or PayFast, which may share your name, email address and message with us. We only use them to say thank you, and we never share them or add you to a list. Keep the email for as long as we need it to say thank you and to keep basic records. To have it removed, email privacy@unkindness.dev.

The Stagelight website

The Stagelight website uses no cookies, analytics or tracking scripts. It's hosted by Render, whose servers may keep short-lived technical logs, such as IP addresses, to run and protect the service.

Feedback

Feedback on GitHub is public and needs a GitHub account, so please don't include anything personal. If something personal is posted by mistake, we'll remove it when we see it, or you can ask us to.

Your rights

You can ask what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or object to how it's used. Email privacy@unkindness.dev. South Africa's Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) gives you these rights, and you can complain to the Information Regulator if you think we've got something wrong.

Children

Stagelight doesn't ask for anyone's age or personal details. If a child has sent us personal information through feedback or a tip, a parent or guardian can email us to have it removed.

Who is responsible

Stagelight is published under the name Unkindness by Yavin Mc Pherson (Lord-Raven1 on GitHub), based in South Africa.

Changes

If what Stagelight does with data changes, we'll update this page before that version is released. The date at the top shows the latest version.
