Privacy Policy

HSX Apps Hub is developed by Hasnain Studio X with a local‑first, privacy‑first design philosophy. It reads which Hasnain Studio X apps are already installed on your PC so it can launch them and show what has changed, and everything it learns about your machine stays on it.

Effective date: 3 September 2026  ·  Version: 1.0.0.0  ·  Publisher: Hasnain Studio X  ·  Developer: Hasnain Butt Akhtar  ·  Applies to: HSX Apps Hub (Windows App)

1. Overview

HSX Apps Hub is developed by Hasnain Studio X with a local-first, privacy-first design philosophy.

  • We do not collect personal data.
  • We do not transmit any data to external servers.
  • We do not operate servers for our apps.
  • We do not sell, share, or monetize user data.

All creation and all processing happen locally on your device.

2. Data We Do NOT Collect

HSX Apps Hub does not collect, store, or send any of the following:

Personal Identity Data

No name, email, phone number, address, or identifiers.

Usage Data or Analytics

No telemetry, crash analytics, tracking, or advertising SDKs.

Your Content or Files

No documents, images, or personal files. The Hub does not open, read, or index your files.

Sensitive System Data

No passwords, tokens, credentials, browsing history, or system logs.

Location Data

No GPS, IP-based location, or device location.

We do not run servers, so nothing can be uploaded even by accident.

3. Data Stored Locally on Your Device

App Settings

Your theme, layout, pinned apps, and preferences are saved locally on your device only.

What Is On This PC

The Hub reads the list of installed applications Windows already keeps for your account, so it can show which Hasnain Studio X apps are present and start them. That list, with the version, size, and install date it finds, is written to one folder on this PC and is never transmitted.

Local Cache

The app catalogue downloaded from hasnainstudiox.com, tile artwork for apps published after your copy of the Hub was released, any screenshots you add to the media folder, and a capped diagnostic log. All stored locally, all removable from Settings.

No Licence Data

HSX Apps Hub is free. There is no trial, no in-app purchase, and no licence for the app to read or store.

This data never leaves your device unless you explicitly export or share it.

4. Microsoft Store Distribution

HSX Apps Hub is free on the Microsoft Store. There is no purchase, no trial, no subscription, and no in-app product, so there is no transaction of any kind. Distribution and installation are handled exclusively by Microsoft.

  • There is nothing to pay, so no payment information exists.
  • We do not receive your Microsoft account information.
  • The app does not read or store any licence of its own.

5. App Permissions

Minimum Required Only

HSX Apps Hub requests only the minimum permissions required for core functionality. Permissions are used solely for app features and never for data collection.

File Access

Only the folders you point it at, and the images you choose to add to the media library. There is no background scanning of your documents.

Reading This PC

Detection runs entirely on your machine using the application list Windows maintains for your account. Nothing about your PC is uploaded, and the Hub never inspects the contents of any app.

Network Access

Three connections, and no others, all to hasnainstudiox.com. The app catalogue is fetched when the app opens, which sends no personal data and no identifier. Tile artwork for an app published after your copy of the Hub was released is fetched once and kept on this PC, which also sends nothing about you. If you use the contact form, the message you typed is sent so it can reach the developer. Nothing else leaves your device.

6. Children's Privacy

HSX Apps Hub is a general-purpose application catalogue. It is not directed to children under 13 and does not collect any data from any user.

7. Policy Updates

If this policy changes, we will update the version and effective date. Any changes will remain consistent with our core principle: Your data stays on your device.
