Nothing to leak,
because nothing leaves.
Most tools that “keep you on camera” with cloud AI send your face to a server to be processed. AwayCam can’t — and that isn’t a policy you have to trust, it’s how the app is built.
100% on-device
Every loop is recorded, stored, and played back on this Mac. Nothing is uploaded — ever.
No AI face data
AwayCam replays the clip you recorded. It never analyzes, morphs, or builds a model of your face.
No network, no telemetry
The app makes no outbound connections. No accounts, no analytics, no phone-home.
Only your own camera
You record yourself; AwayCam loops that. It’s not a deepfake or face-swap tool.
A list of dogs that don’t bark.
Most privacy pages list what a product does. Here’s what AwayCam can’t do — each backed by code or its absence, not policy.
-
Your face as data
No face-recognition models bundled or loaded.
-
Your voice or words
The mic is sampled only for level meter; audio is never recorded.
-
Who you are
No accounts, no sign-in, no identifier — there’s nothing to track you with.
-
Your network activity
No network-client entitlement — the OS blocks every outbound connection.
-
Other apps’ data
Sandboxed. AwayCam can only see its own container.
-
Crashes, analytics, telemetry
No telemetry SDK. No crash reporter. No “anonymous diagnostics.”
This isn’t a policy — it’s the build. The list above is the absence of code, not the addition of a promise.
Don’t take our word for it.
AwayCam ships sandboxed with no network-client entitlement. macOS itself blocks every outbound connection at the OS level — so “nothing leaves your Mac” is enforced by the system, not promised by us.
The same audit appears right inside the app, in Settings ▸ Privacy — where you can also export a Privacy Receipt: a plain-text, verifiable snapshot of these facts to hand to a skeptical teammate or IT department.

AwayCam is for camera fatigue, quick breaks, and presence continuity — used with your own camera feed. It speaks up if you talk while Away, so a loop is never mistaken for live attention.
