Thumbnail Preloader
What stays local
The Software reads your files in order to generate preview images. This reading and generating happens entirely on your device. No image content, file names, folder paths or file listings are transmitted to the Provider or to third parties.
| Type of data | Stored | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Generated previews | locally on the device | Display in Windows Explorer |
| List of preloaded folders | locally on the device | Knowing which areas are kept warm |
| Settings | locally on the device | Speed, depth, display options |
| Processing statistics | locally on the device | Showing throughput and progress |
| License key and device identifier | locally, and with the Provider | Checking that a license is valid and tied to one device |
Which connections the app makes
- Activation and license check. Transmitted are the license key and an identifier derived from device properties. That identifier serves only to tie an activation to one device.
- Update check. The app asks whether a newer version exists. What is transmitted is the installed version.
- Nothing else. Outside those two cases the Software works offline.
What the app does not do
- No transmission of image content, previews or thumbnails.
- No transmission of file names, folder names or directory structures.
- No advertising tracking, no passing of data on for advertising purposes.
- No modification, moving or deletion of your original files. Access is read-only.
Deleting
You can discard previews and settings in the app at any time. Uninstalling removes them as well, see Uninstall and clean up. To delete data held by the Provider in connection with your license, please contact us through the contact form.
Payment data
Payment data is processed exclusively by the payment provider Paddle. The Provider never receives complete card or bank details. Details on processing on this website are set out in the Privacy Policy.
