WLED Max Privacy Policy
Last Updated: February 17, 2026
MeowScript LLC
This WLED Max-specific Privacy Policy supplements our Company Privacy Policy. It explains how WLED Max handles your data and personal information.
Privacy-First Design
WLED Max is designed with your privacy as a priority:
- All your WLED configurations and device names stay on YOUR device
- We do NOT have access to your WLED device configurations
- Automatic error reports are opt-out and may include WLED device IPs (see Section 3)
- Apple crash reports are opt-in via iOS Settings
- We do NOT sell or share your data with advertisers
1. Data Collection Overview
Data We Do NOT Collect
- Your WLED device configurations or LED settings
- Your network topology
- Your location or address
- Your Wi-Fi credentials or network passwords
- Your WLED device names or custom presets
Data Stored Locally on Your Device
- WLED device IP addresses and custom names
- App preferences and settings
- Saved presets and effect configurations
- Device groupings and room assignments
Data That May Be Sent to Apple (Opt-In Only)
- Crash reports and diagnostics - only if you enable this in iOS Settings
Data That May Be Sent to MeowScript (Opt-Out)
- Automatic error reports when app issues occur - enabled by default, can be disabled in app Settings
- Error reports may include: error type, error message, WLED device IP address, WLED firmware version, app version, iOS version, device model, and timestamp
- Error reports are sent to MeowScript servers and used solely for improving app stability
- Error reports are deduplicated (same error sent at most once every 5 minutes)
2. Local Network Connections
WLED Max connects to WLED controllers on your local network:
WLED Devices
- Connection: Direct to your WLED devices over your local network
- Protocol: HTTP/WebSocket communication with WLED JSON API
- Data flow: All communication stays within your local network
Apple StoreKit
- Used for in-app purchases
- Purchase transactions are handled entirely by Apple
- MeowScript does not receive or store your payment information
Important: WLED Max communicates directly with your WLED devices on your local network. MeowScript does not operate any servers that receive, intercept, or process your WLED data. No data leaves your local network through our app.
3. Error and Crash Reporting
Automatic Error Reports (MeowScript)
When the app encounters errors, brief error reports are automatically sent to MeowScript servers to help us improve the app. This is enabled by default and can be disabled in the app's Settings.
What's included in error reports:
- Error type and error message
- WLED device IP address (local network IP, e.g. 192.168.x.x)
- WLED firmware version
- App version, iOS version, and device model
- Timestamp
What's NOT included:
- Your WLED device names or custom configurations
- Your LED presets, colors, or effects
- Your Wi-Fi credentials or network passwords
- Your email or any personally identifying information
Error reports are deduplicated (same error sent at most once every 5 minutes) and are used solely for improving app stability. They are never shared with third parties.
Apple Crash Reports (Opt-In)
If you enable crash reporting in iOS Settings, Apple may collect standard crash diagnostics:
- Crash logs and stack traces
- App version and iOS version
- Device model
These are managed through Apple's standard crash reporting system and accessible to MeowScript only through App Store Connect.
User Feedback (Manual)
When you voluntarily submit feedback through the app, you provide a message and optionally your email. We also include your app version, iOS version, device model, and number of WLED devices to help diagnose issues. No WLED device IPs or configurations are included in feedback submissions.
4. Analytics and Tracking - We Do NOT Use
- Third-party analytics SDKs (Google Analytics, Firebase, etc.)
- Advertising identifiers
- User tracking or profiling
- Cross-app tracking
- Fingerprinting
5. Data Security
- All local network communications use your existing network security
- Local data protected by iOS data protection
- Error reports transmitted over HTTPS to MeowScript servers
- No user WLED configurations or personal data stored on our servers
- Purchase transactions secured by Apple's StoreKit framework
6. Your Rights
Data Deletion
Since all your data is stored locally on your device: delete the app to remove all local data, or clear app data in iOS Settings.
Data Access
All your data is accessible within the app. Your device configurations and preferences are stored entirely on your device and are under your full control.
7. Children's Privacy
WLED Max is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
8. International Users
WLED Max processes all data locally on your device. No user data is transmitted to external servers.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy. Material changes will be notified through the app.
