PageWright runs entirely on your computer. The app doesn't collect, transmit, or store any of your data. On this website, the only personal details we keep are the first names of recent buyers (see below), an email address you choose to give us for the Mac version waitlist, and the standard access logs every web server keeps (see The Website below).
PageWright is a local desktop application developed by FifthWhy, LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company. When you use it, the software connects directly from your computer to your FTP, FTPS, or SFTP server. All file editing, previewing, and management happens between your machine and your hosting provider. No data passes through FifthWhy, LLC's servers.
Your server credentials (host, username, password) are stored locally on your computer in an AES-256 encrypted file. They are never transmitted to us or any third party.
The Live Preview feature fetches pages from your own website URL so they can be displayed in the preview pane. These requests go directly from your computer to your site. No proxy servers or third-party services are involved.
PageWright contains no analytics, telemetry, crash reporting, or usage tracking of any kind. We have no idea how you use the software, how often you use it, or what sites you connect to.
PageWright only makes network connections that you initiate:
PageWright does not make background network connections or transmit data automatically. PageWright's optional "Check for Updates" feature (Help menu) contacts pagewright.net only when you explicitly trigger it.
This website is a static informational site. We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and use our website. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect anonymous usage data (pages visited, time on site, referral source). No personally identifiable information is collected through analytics. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Like most web servers, ours also keeps standard access logs: the IP address, browser, page requested and time of each visit. Our hosting provider keeps them to run and secure the server, and we don’t use them to identify visitors.
Purchases are processed by LemonSqueezy, who acts as the Merchant of Record. We do not receive or store your payment card details.
To show recent activity, our website may display the first name only and the approximate time of recent purchases (for example, “Andrew bought PageWright · 2 hours ago”). We never display your email address, full name, location, purchase amount, or any other personal details, and these entries are removed automatically as newer purchases replace them. If you would prefer your first name not be shown, email us and we will remove it.
Mac version waitlist. If you leave your email address in the “On a Mac?” box on our homepage, we store that address and the date and time you signed up on our web server. We use it for one thing only: to email you once if a Mac version of PageWright is released. We don’t add it to a mailing list, share it, or sell it, and we delete the waitlist, and any copy of it, after that email is sent, or if we decide not to make a Mac version. To have your address removed sooner, email support@pagewright.net.
PageWright's AI features (chat, security scanner) require you to provide your own API key and explicitly opt in. When you use AI features, your code is sent to your chosen AI provider (Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google) for processing. No code is sent without your action. If a message you send to AI Chat contains web addresses, PageWright also fetches those pages (up to three) so their text can be given to the AI as context. Your API keys are encrypted and stored locally on your computer — they are never transmitted to FifthWhy, LLC or any third party.
