It has no network access and no telemetry. -## What is stored locally - -The tool stores a small configuration file (`app.ini`) on your own machine. This file exists only to save you from re-entering your save folder path and backup location every time you run the program. - -The configuration file may contain: - -- Your Subnautica 2 save folder path (e.g., `C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Local\Subnautica2\Saved\SaveGames`) -- Your chosen backup location (defaults to `~/NotAlterra`) - -These paths may reveal your system username. The information never leaves your computer. - -## No network, no telemetry, no tracking - -- NotAlterra makes no network connections. -- It sends no data anywhere. -- It includes no analytics, crash reporting, or usage tracking of any kind. - -## Your control - -- The configuration file is plain text. You can open it, edit it, or delete it at any time. -- Deleting the file resets the tool to its default state (you will be prompted for paths again). -- Backup archives are stored locally in your chosen location. NotAlterra never accesses them except when you explicitly choose to create or restore a backup. - -## What NotAlterra does not do - -- Does not collect or store playtime, save metadata, or any game-related content outside of your local backups. -- Does not share any information with the developer or any third party. -- Does not require an account, login, or internet connection. - -## Contact - -If you have privacy concerns, you can contact the maintainer directly using the information provided in [`SECURITY.md`](SECURITY.md). - -*This document is a good-faith description of NotAlterra's behavior. The tool is open source — you are encouraged to review the code yourself.* +The tool stores two configuration values (save folder and backup root path) on your own machine so you don't have to re-enter them every session. These values never leave your computer and remain entirely under your control.
