Privacy policy
Bookmark Swipe has no server and no account. Your saved posts stay on your Mac. This page says what the app and this website collect, where it goes, and how to delete it.
This website
If you request a beta invite, the site keeps your email address, the bookmark range and coding agent you picked, the link you arrived from if it carried a tag, and the time. They are stored with Cloudflare, which hosts the site. They are used only to choose beta testers and write to you about the beta. Reply to any message, or write to the contact address, to be removed. The site keeps no IP address.
Signing in to X
You sign in on X's own page in your web browser. The app never sees your password. X gives the app a token that lets it read your bookmarks, your profile and posts. The app cannot post, like, follow, message or change your bookmarks. The token is kept in the macOS Keychain on your Mac.
What the app reads from X
Your bookmarked posts: their text, author names, handles and profile photos, dates, links, and links to images and video. Nothing else from your account.
Where it is kept
Only on your Mac, in ~/Library/Application Support/BookmarkSwipe, with your swipes, topic groups and a search index. Search and topic grouping run on your Mac with a model built into the app. Your posts are not sent to the developer or anyone else, are not used to train any model, and are not used for advertising. The app has no analytics.
What is shared, and with whom
- X. The app asks X's API for your bookmarks with your token, so X knows your account read them. X's own privacy policy covers what X does with that.
- Image and link sites. Images load from X's media servers. Link previews load from the linked pages. Those sites see your Mac's IP address, as they would in a browser.
- Your coding agent, only if you turn it on. Agent Access is off until you switch it on. Then a coding agent on your Mac, such as Claude Code or Codex, can search your saved posts. That agent may send what it reads to its own AI provider under that provider's terms.
- The developer, only if you send it. During the test, File → Copy Test Report… shows counts and dates, such as how many posts you have and on how many days you used the app. It holds no post text, names, links, topics or search words. The app sends nothing. You decide whether to copy it and send it.
Keeping posts current
X asks apps to remove posts that were deleted or made private. The app checks saved posts against X when you import and before Today shows them, and removes the ones X reports as gone.
Deleting your data
- One post: File → Remove a Post… removes it from your library, swipes, search and previews. If you wrote a post and want it removed from someone's copy, write to the contact address and it will be passed on to them.
- Everything: File → Delete My X Data… deletes every saved post, your swipes, the search index, previews and cached images, and signs you out of X. Skill drafts you wrote yourself are your own files and stay.
- The app: deleting the app and the folder above removes all of it.
