Sent, and when
| What | When | To |
|---|---|---|

| Update check (app version, platform) | On start and every six hours, unless turned off in Settings | dl.sitemoth.com |

There is no analytics, no telemetry and no crash reporter. If the app crashes, it offers to include the error in a report you can read first.
Report retention
Bundles are kept while the report is open and for 90 days after it is closed, then deleted. You can ask for earlier deletion with the report id at [email protected].
