Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 25, 2026. tnnl is a native macOS app for managing OpenVPN and WireGuard profiles.

Overview

tnnl is designed to keep VPN profile data on your Mac. The app does not collect user information through its VPN functionality, does not provide a public VPN service, does not operate VPN servers for users, and does not sell access to a VPN network.

Information tnnl stores

tnnl stores imported VPN profile information locally on your Mac so the app can display profiles and connect them through macOS Network Extension APIs.

  • Imported OpenVPN and WireGuard profile configuration.
  • Profile names and local app settings needed to manage those profiles.
  • Credentials, when needed for connection, stored in Apple Keychain.
  • Up to 100 recent redacted Activity events for up to 14 days. Activity remains on your Mac and can be cleared at any time.

Diagnostics

Diagnostics are copied only when you choose Copy Diagnostics in the app. Before diagnostics are copied, tnnl redacts secrets from OpenVPN and WireGuard material where supported by the app.

tnnl does not automatically upload diagnostics, logs, VPN profiles, or credentials.

Analytics and telemetry

tnnl does not include telemetry, analytics SDKs, remote logging, advertising identifiers, or diagnostic upload.

Network traffic

When you connect a profile, VPN traffic is processed on your Mac and sent to the VPN endpoint specified by the profile you imported. The VPN server or provider associated with that profile handles the traffic according to its own service and privacy terms.

tnnl does not collect, retain, inspect, sell, monetize, or transmit to the developer packet contents, browsing history, DNS queries, destination addresses, IP addresses, or traffic metadata. The app computes only aggregate uploaded and downloaded byte counts locally so it can display connection statistics.

Data sharing

tnnl does not sell or share personal information with third parties. Profile data, credentials, settings, Activity, and connection statistics remain on your Mac. Network traffic is sent only to the VPN endpoint selected through the profile you import; tnnl does not select that provider for you or receive data from it.

Data removal

You can remove imported profiles and clear recent Activity from the app. Credentials saved for connection are stored in Keychain and may also be managed through macOS Keychain Access.
