Namewright Privacy Policy
Namewright is a Windows desktop app that renames files. It works entirely on your device: it renames the files you add to its list, in the folder where they already are.
What the app stores
For each batch of the last twenty renames, Namewright keeps a record of what it did: the old name and the new name of every file, with the size and the date that file had. That record is what makes the batch possible to put back with Undo, even after the app was closed. The presets you save and your settings are written next to it. All of it lives in three files (history.json, presets.json and settings.json) in the app's own data folder on this PC. The Settings page shows that folder.
What the app reads
It reads the names of the files and the folders you add to the list, their size and their two dates. The date rule also reads the capture date written inside a file: the EXIF date of a JPEG, a TIFF or a HEIC, or the header of an MP4 or a MOV. Nothing else is read, and the content of your files is never opened or changed.
What the app does not do
Nothing leaves your PC. Namewright has no account, no analytics, no advertising and no telemetry, and it never connects to the internet. It renames a file in the folder it is already in: it never moves a file to another folder, never copies it, never deletes it and never touches what is inside it.
How to delete the data
Uninstall Namewright: Windows removes the app's data folder with it. Or open Settings in the app, note the folder named in the line under About and delete that folder: that removes every record, every preset and every setting. There is nothing stored anywhere else, so there is nothing else to delete.
Children
Namewright collects no data from anyone, including children.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will publish the new version on this page with its date.
