Privacy Policy
Last updated: 3 November 2026
Deskbudi is operated by Li Qiaoming, trading as Deskbudi Studio, Room 802, Building 27, Zone 3, Xikeng New Village, Fucheng Subdistrict, Longhua District, Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, 518110, China (email: aken123de@163.com). This policy explains what the app and this website collect, and what we do with it. In short: the app is local-first, there is no account, and we collect only what is needed to sell you something and deliver it to your PC.
1. Information the app stores on your device
Your pet, rooms, wallpaper choices, reminders, diary entries, purchases and settings are stored on your computer. Diary entries and notes are never uploaded to us.
2. Information we collect on our servers
- An anonymous device identifier. A random identifier generated by the app on first launch. It is not derived from your hardware and does not contain your name. It links your purchases to your installation so that content you paid for can be downloaded.
- Purchase and order records. Product, amount, currency, order status, timestamps, the version of the purchase agreement you accepted, and the IP address the order was placed from. We keep the IP address because payment providers require it when a buyer disputes a charge.
- Technical request logs. Like any web server, ours records the IP address, app version and time of requests for purchases, content downloads and update checks.
We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, precise location, contact list or files unless you write to our support address and give us those details yourself.
3. Weather
If you enable the weather feature, the app sends the city you selected - not your GPS position - to QWeather, a third-party weather service, along with an API key. We never see that request.
4. Payments
Payments are handled by Creem, our Merchant of Record. Card details are entered on Creem's checkout page and go directly to Creem and its payment processors - they never reach our servers. Creem also calculates and remits sales tax or VAT. Creem's own privacy policy applies to the information you give them.
5. This website
This site does not use advertising cookies, analytics scripts, tracking pixels or third-party fonts. If you download the installer, our server logs the request as described in section 2.
6. Why we use this information
- to deliver the content you purchased and to restore it if your PC is replaced;
- to keep financial records and answer payment disputes or chargebacks;
- to run and secure the servers (rate limits, abuse prevention, error diagnosis);
- to comply with tax and accounting obligations.
7. Sharing
We do not sell or rent personal information. We share it only with:
- Creem - to process your payment and handle refunds and disputes;
- Hosting and infrastructure providers - servers located in mainland China and Singapore, used to run the download and order services;
- Authorities - where required by law, or to establish or defend legal claims.
8. Retention
Order and payment records are kept for as long as accounting and tax law requires. Technical logs are kept for a limited period and then discarded. Device identifiers are deleted when they are no longer linked to a purchase.
9. Your rights
You may ask us what we hold about your device, ask for a copy, or ask us to delete it. Write to aken123de@163.com from any address and include your device identifier if you know it (it is shown in the app's settings). Deleting purchase records may mean you lose access to purchased content, and we may have to keep financial records for the period required by law.
10. Security
Data in transit is protected with TLS where the service supports it, and access to order records is restricted. No system is completely secure; if we discover a breach that affects your data we will notify affected users as required by law.
11. Children
The Service is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
12. Changes
If this policy changes we will update the date at the top of this page. Material changes will be announced on this site.
