Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Rainmeter collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information in connection with our desktop customization app and website for the gaming community. We are committed to maintaining the privacy and security of users while delivering safe, stable software that provides system monitoring, interactive UI widgets, and custom gaming themes. This policy applies to data collected through our website, the Rainmeter application, and related online services as of 2026.
Information We Collect
We collect information you provide directly such as account registration details, contact information, and user submissions including custom themes and uploaded assets. We also collect technical and usage data automatically from your device and application, including system performance metrics, hardware identifiers, IP addresses, crash reports, and interaction logs necessary to support widgets and monitoring features. Where applicable and with consent, we may collect telemetry and diagnostic data to improve stability and game-focused integrations. We do not collect unnecessary sensitive personal information and we provide controls for optional telemetry within the application.
Use of Data
We use personal information to operate, maintain, and improve the Rainmeter app and website and to provide customer support and software updates. Data helps us personalize theme recommendations, troubleshoot issues, analyze performance, and ensure that interactive widgets function reliably for PC enthusiasts. We may also use contact information to send administrative messages, security alerts, and promotional materials where you have consented to receive them. Third-party services may process data on our behalf to provide analytics, hosting, and payment processing when applicable.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to provide services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Retention periods vary by data type and purpose, and we regularly review stored information to delete or anonymize data that is no longer needed. You may request deletion or closure of your account and we will act on valid requests in accordance with applicable law.
Transfer of Data
Personal data may be processed and stored in the United States and in other countries where our service providers operate. When data is transferred across borders we use contractual safeguards and rely on approved transfer mechanisms where required to protect your information. By using our services you acknowledge that your information may be transferred to jurisdictions with different data protection laws than your home country.
Security of Data
We implement technical and organizational measures such as encryption in transit, access controls, and secure development practices to protect personal information. Our team conducts regular security reviews and updates to maintain the safety and stability of the application and website. Despite these measures, no method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your Rights
Where applicable, you have rights to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal data and to obtain a copy of information you have provided to us. You may also have the right to restrict or object to certain processing and to request data portability when supported by law. Residents of certain U.S. states, including California, may have additional privacy rights under state law and may submit a request through the contact methods listed below. We may require verification of identity before fulfilling requests and may retain information as permitted by law.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices, legal obligations, or service features and we will indicate the date of the most recent revision. Significant changes will be communicated by posting notice on our website and, where feasible, by emailing registered users. Continued use of our services after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
