2. Overview
The app “OpenRGB Remote” sends no data to me as the developer. I don’t run any servers for this app and cannot see who uses it or how. It contains no ads and no analytics or tracking services. The app processes the data listed below only on your device, or transmits it only to destinations you choose yourself.
3. Data processed
| Data | Purpose | Storage | Shared | Optional |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Saved PCs (IP address or host name, port, name) | Connecting to your OpenRGB servers | Locally on the device | No | No |
| Addresses in the local network (during a scan) | Finding OpenRGB servers in your Wi-Fi | Only in memory during the scan | No | Yes |
Unless stated otherwise, the legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (providing the app features you use) or, for optional features, your consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. [Review legal bases and adjust if necessary]
4. Permissions
The app requests the following Android permissions:
INTERNET: Connecting to OpenRGB servers in your local network.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Detecting the current network for scanning and automatic reconnect.
You can revoke permissions at any time in the Android system settings.
5. Third-party services
No third-party services (e.g. analytics or advertising SDKs) are integrated.
6. Advertising
The app contains no ads.
7. Distribution
The app is provided via GitHub (source code and releases). When you download it, GitHub processes technically necessary data such as your IP address. I have no influence on this. More information: GitHub’s privacy statement.
8. Data transmission and security
The app only talks to the OpenRGB servers in your own network. The OpenRGB SDK protocol has neither encryption nor a password – so only use it in trusted networks or over a VPN and never expose port 6742 to the internet. No data is sent to developer servers or third parties.
9. Deleting your data
Delete saved PCs in the app, or uninstall it / clear its data in Android settings.
10. Your rights
You have the right of access (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20) and to object (Art. 21). You can withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future (Art. 7(3) GDPR). You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR), e.g. the authority of your place of residence or [competent state authority at the controller’s location].
