None. radway has no accounts, no sign-in, no analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising, and no third-party SDKs. It does not read your contacts, location, photos or files outside its own folder.
The app makes no network connections. It is distributed without the network entitlement, so it cannot reach the internet even if it tried.
radway writes only inside its own sandbox container:
These live in
~/Library/Containers/app.radway.scanner/Data/Documents/radway/.
They are never uploaded anywhere. Deleting the app removes them.
radway asks macOS for USB device access for one purpose: to talk to a connected RTL-SDR receiver. It does not use the microphone, the camera, or any other sensor. Audio is played to your output device only — nothing is recorded from it.
Radio signals you tune to are demodulated locally and played back or, if you choose to record, written to your own disk. radway never transmits, forwards or reports anything about what you listen to. You are responsible for complying with the laws in your country regarding which transmissions may be received and what may be done with their contents.
radway is a utility with no user accounts and no data collection, so there is nothing to collect from anyone, of any age.
If this policy ever changes, the updated version will be published on this page with a new date below.
