Can I verify or control network activity?
Yes — and you don't have to take our word for it.
BackWatcher processes all camera data locally on your Mac. No images are stored, recorded, or uploaded.
The app may connect to the internet only for
- License activation and validation
- Anonymous usage analytics (via PostHog) to improve the product
You remain in control. You can
- Block or restrict BackWatcher in your firewall
- Allow internet access only when activating your license
- Monitor all outbound connections using tools like Little Snitch or Lulu on macOS, or GlassWire / Wireshark
You can inspect every network request yourself and confirm exactly what is being sent.
Transparency matters — that's why you can verify everything independently.
