Privacy policy

Last updated: October 9, 2026

About this policy

Tuck: Menu Bar Organizer is a Mac app made by Rappasoft, LLC. This policy covers Tuck, license activation, and its update service. Visits to this site are covered separately by the Rappasoft website privacy policy.

Running apps and Accessibility

Tuck discovers running apps and their menu bar items on your Mac. It uses app names, bundle identifiers, and icons to display your choices. With Accessibility permission, it checks menu bar item structure and available actions, opens a selected app's menu, and observes menu opening and closing events for automatic retucking.

Tuck does not copy the contents of your documents, messages, or menu selections into a history. It does not record your screen or require Screen Recording permission. You can manage Accessibility permission in macOS System Settings. Removing that permission prevents Tuck from discovering and opening app menus.

Settings stored on your Mac

Tuck remembers the bundle identifiers of the apps you select, your Favorites, tray order, keyboard shortcut, and automatic retucking and startup choices. These are stored locally in macOS preferences without Tuck encryption. macOS manages your launch-at-login setting. Running-app and menu information is used in memory while Tuck is running.

You can change selections, Favorites, order, and settings in Tuck. Quitting the app restores the menu bar icons but keeps your saved preferences for the next launch. Removing the app does not automatically erase its preferences. Contact us if you need help removing saved Tuck settings.

Network and analytics

Tuck does not require a Rappasoft account and has no cloud sync, advertising, or analytics service. The app does not send your selected apps, Favorites, tray order, shortcut, startup choices, or menu activity to Rappasoft or a third party. Menu discovery and organization happen on your Mac. Apps whose menus you open continue to operate under their own privacy policies.

License activation

Tuck uses Lemon Squeezy to activate a purchased license for up to two Macs. The initial license check sends only the key over HTTPS to Lemon Squeezy. Activation sends the key and the generic instance label “Tuck on Mac”. Checks of a saved activation and deactivation requests send the key and the activation's instance identifier over HTTPS. Tuck does not send your Mac's name, a hardware fingerprint, or an inventory of your apps with these requests.

Lemon Squeezy receives your IP address and ordinary connection information and associates the activation with the license and its purchase. Tuck receives the license status and related product and customer information to check that the key belongs to Tuck. The license key and activation information are saved in your Mac's Keychain.

Tuck normally checks the saved activation automatically at most once every 24 hours when the app launches or returns to the foreground. A saved valid activation continues to work offline without a time limit, and an ordinary failed license check keeps that activation. If Tuck closes during a license check, or a deactivation cannot be confirmed, an online check may be needed before you can use it again. A response identifying the license as invalid, disabled, or expired stops access. Deactivating a Mac releases its activation for another Mac. Lemon Squeezy handles license information under its privacy policy.

Optional update checks

Tuck uses Sparkle to check for updates. When you choose Check for Updates or enable automatic checks, Tuck requests release information from GitHub and can download a compiled app update from GitHub Releases over HTTPS. You can turn automatic checks off and check manually instead. A GitHub account is not required.

GitHub and its hosting providers receive your IP address, the requested URL, and ordinary connection information, including app and updater versions. GitHub handles this information under its privacy statement. They may retain access logs to operate and troubleshoot the service. Tuck does not send a device profile, selected-app list, Favorites, menu activity, or license identifier with update checks.

Purchases and downloads

Lemon Squeezy handles checkout, payment processing, receipts, license keys, and delivery of the initial download. It processes purchase information such as your name, email, billing details, and order under its privacy policy. Rappasoft receives order and customer information needed to provide purchases, support, refunds, and business records. Tuck does not receive or store your payment card details. Using the app requires a purchased license key but does not require a Rappasoft account.

Support and questions

If you email us, we receive your address, message, and any attachments you choose to send. We use them to respond and troubleshoot, and retain the correspondence as needed for support and business records. Email providers process messages as part of delivery and storage. Please avoid sending private app content. For support, access, or deletion requests, email [email protected]. You can ask us to delete support correspondence, subject to any records we must keep by law.

We will update this policy if the app's practices change. Visit the Tuck product and support page.
