Second Look privacy statement
Data controller: Marduk Syndicate (United States). Contact: support@marduksyndicate.io.
- No telemetry, no analytics, no network connections of any kind. The app has no HTTP client; on Linux the only sockets it uses are the local Unix sockets Wayland needs.
- Screen capture stays on your PC. The magnifier reads the screen through the operating system’s standard capture APIs to draw the lens. Nothing is stored or sent. When zoom is off there is no capture session at all.
- Settings are a local file:
%APPDATA%\SecondLook\settings.jsonon Windows,$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/second-look/settings.jsonon Linux. Profiles are saved there the moment anything changes. - No account, no Steam DRM wrapper. The app runs without Steam. When launched from Steam it initialises the Steamworks library so Steam knows it’s open; an autostart launch doesn’t initialise Steam at all.
- It does not hook, inject into or read the memory of any game.
