Privacy Policy
Mic Drop is a super-simple little Mac menubar app made by your friends at Octopus Think. 🐙💡
By default, Mic Drop collects absolutely no data about you, your computer, or your usage of the app.
Microphone access
Mic Drop doesn’t record, save, or otherwise listen to what you’re saying. It can only mute and unmute your microphone. The app doesn’t ask to access your microphone, because it doesn’t need to hear what you’re saying.
We don’t listen in.
Crash reports and usage statistics
Analytics are completely optional and opt-in. We’ll never sell your information to advertisers, third-parties, or that kid who was mean to you in first grade.
- Anonymous usage statistics—stuff like how many times you press mute, whether you use the status window, and if you’ve changed the keyboard shortcut from the default.
- The version number of Mic Drop you’re using.
- Crash logs and info about audio devices connected to your Mac.
- The type of Mac you have and the version of macOS you’re running.
If you opt-in, this usage data is uploaded to our Firebase Analytics account, but contains no personally identifiable information about you or your usage of Mic Drop.
Billing info
We don't collect, store, or process your billing information and we don't have access to your credit card information. Payment is processed by Paddle. If you purchased Mic Drop via the Mac App Store, Apple processes your payment info.

Our stance on privacy
Your data is yours. We only collect data you agree to share. You can opt out at any time. Nothing we collect can identify you personally, either by way of a unique ID or by your usage patterns. We’re not interested in spying on you. 🙈
