Privacy Policy — VramMon

Effective date: 11 May 2026 · Version 1.0

TL;DR. VramMon collects nothing, sends nothing, stores nothing on any server. It is a local-only utility that reads hardware sensor data from your own machine and displays it to you. That's it.

// 1. Who we are

VramMon is a free Windows desktop application developed and published by Smai-Lee (the "Publisher") and distributed through the Microsoft Store.

// 2. Information we do not collect

VramMon does not collect, transmit, or store any of the following:

Personal information of any kind (name, email, address, account identifiers)
Telemetry, usage analytics, crash reports, or diagnostic logs sent to us or third parties
IP addresses, device identifiers, or location data
Advertising identifiers
Any content you view, type, or interact with on your device

The application's manifest declares no Internet (Client) capability, which means it is technically unable to open outbound network connections to any server.

// 3. What VramMon reads locally on your device

To perform its function, VramMon queries the following local sources on your own machine. These readings stay on your device and are displayed only to you:

NVML (NVIDIA Management Library): GPU memory usage, GPU utilization, temperature, and similar hardware sensors — only if an NVIDIA GPU is present
PDH (Windows Performance Data Helper) counters: standard operating system performance counters such as memory, CPU, and GPU statistics exposed by Windows itself

These values are read in real time, shown in the application's user interface, and discarded. They are never written to disk or transmitted off the device.

// 4. Settings stored locally

VramMon saves your user preferences (window position, refresh interval, display options) to your own user profile on your local device, in the standard Windows location for Microsoft Store applications:

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Smai-Lee.VramMon_<hash>\LocalState\

This data never leaves your machine. To delete it, uninstall the application via Settings → Apps.

// 5. Third-party services

VramMon does not integrate any third-party SDKs, analytics frameworks, advertising networks, or cloud services. It does not embed any web content or external resources at runtime.

// 6. Children's privacy

VramMon is a general-purpose hardware utility intended for users of any age. Because it collects no data at all, there is no information that could be associated with a child or any other user.

// 7. Changes to this policy

If VramMon's behaviour ever changes in a way that affects this policy — for example, the introduction of an opt-in feature requiring network access — this page will be updated, the effective date above will be revised, and the change will be noted in the application's release notes.
