HYPNIX Privacy Policy
Last updated:
HYPNIX is developed by Marcelo Bossle and published under the Mablook name. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use HYPNIX or contact us for support.
For privacy questions or requests, contact hello@mablook.com.
1. Information processed on your device
HYPNIX processes information locally to provide animated wallpapers and related features. This may include:
- Application preferences and wallpaper settings.
- Information about connected monitors, including their resolution and arrangement.
- Wallpaper selections and assignments for each monitor.
- File paths for images or videos you select.
- Audio output information used for audio-reactive animations.
- Window activity information used to pause or adjust wallpaper playback.
Imported background images may be copied to the application’s local storage. Videos may be read from their original locations.
HYPNIX does not require a separate Mablook account and does not include advertising trackers or automatically upload diagnostic logs to Mablook.
2. Audio-reactive features
When audio-reactive features are enabled, HYPNIX may analyse audio playing through your computer’s output device to animate wallpapers.
This analysis takes place locally in memory. HYPNIX does not use microphone input for this feature, save audio recordings, or transmit the analysed audio to Mablook.
You can disable audio-reactive behaviour in the application’s settings.
3. Local diagnostic logs
HYPNIX may create diagnostic logs on your device to help investigate errors and improve reliability. These logs may contain application events, error messages, file paths, and your Windows username where it forms part of a file path.
Logs are not automatically sent to Mablook. You may choose to share them when requesting support. Please review any logs or attachments before sending them and remove information you do not wish to share.
4. Microsoft Store purchases and licensing
If you obtain HYPNIX through the Microsoft Store, Microsoft processes information associated with your Microsoft account, purchase, payment, and Store services under its own terms and privacy policy.
HYPNIX may receive licensing information needed to determine whether your licence is valid and whether a trial is active or has expired.
Mablook does not receive your full payment card details through HYPNIX.
For more information, see the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
5. Support communications
If you contact hello@mablook.com, we receive the information you provide, such as your email address, message, and attachments.
We use this information to respond to your request, investigate reported problems, provide support, and meet applicable legal obligations.
Our email and service providers may process these communications on our behalf. We do not sell your personal information or use support communications to send unsolicited marketing.
6. Legal bases for processing
Where applicable data protection law requires a legal basis, we rely on:
- Performance of a contract, where processing is necessary to provide the application or requested support.
- Legitimate interests, such as maintaining security and reliability and handling support requests.
- Compliance with legal obligations.
- Consent, where required for a particular activity.
Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
7. Sharing and international transfers
Information processed locally by HYPNIX is not automatically transmitted to Mablook.
Information you send us directly may be processed by service providers supporting our communications and operations, or disclosed where required by law or necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
If personal information is transferred internationally, we will use the safeguards required by applicable data protection law.
8. Data retention
Local application settings, imported files, and diagnostic logs remain on your device until removed by you, the application’s cleanup or log rotation mechanisms, or your operating system. Some locally stored information may remain after uninstalling the application.
We retain support communications only for as long as reasonably necessary to resolve requests, maintain relevant support records, and comply with legal obligations or protect legal rights.
9. Your rights
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or a copy of personal information we hold about you. You may also have rights to restrict or object to certain processing.
To exercise these rights, contact hello@mablook.com.
Mablook cannot access information stored exclusively on your device. You can manage that information through the application, Windows settings, or your local files.
You may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes to HYPNIX, our practices, or legal requirements. The date above identifies the latest revision. Where required, we will provide additional notice of significant changes.
