If you see the "App is damaged" error, run:
sudo xattr -cr "/Applications/YASSH Client.app"This application does not collect, store, or transmit user data. All operations are performed locally unless explicitly initiated by the user (e.g. SSH connections).
The application may send limited technical telemetry to our server for statistics, security, and abuse prevention:
- Operating system
- Application version
- Anonymous client identifier
- IP address
The IP address is hashed when stored in the database and is not shared with third parties. The hashed IP address is used solely to detect and prevent attempts to manipulate application statistics and other forms of abuse.
Telemetry does not contain SSH credentials, connection data, files, commands, or any other user content.
