Privacy Policy for DLSS 5 Swapper

Effective date: October 21, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how DLSS 5 Swapper (“DLSS 5 Swapper”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and safeguards information when you interact with our products and services, including the content and tools published at https://dlss5swapper.org (the “Site”), and optional one-time sponsorships or paid download checkouts on the Site. DLSS 5 Swapper is a Windows desktop tool for installing, managing, and restoring NVIDIA DLSS 5 across PC games and supported emulators.

By accessing or using DLSS 5 Swapper, or completing a payment on the Site, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of our services and do not complete checkout.

Information We Collect

We collect information that you provide directly to us, data generated when you interact with DLSS 5 Swapper services, payment-related data needed to process optional purchases, and limited information from third-party tools that help us deliver the service.

• Account & Contact Details : If you contact support or submit inquiries, we collect details such as your name, email address, locale, and any message contents you include. If you voluntarily provide a display name or message with a sponsorship, we may store that information to show on the Support list or to fulfill related features.
• Payment & Transaction Information : When you make a one-time Support / sponsorship payment or complete a paid download (or similar) checkout, we collect and process transaction-related information such as product or price identifier, amount, currency, payment status, transaction or order identifiers, locale, and timestamps. If you enter an email or other contact details at checkout, Waffo Pancake and/or we may receive them for receipts, fraud prevention, and support. We do not store full payment card numbers, CVV codes, or complete bank account credentials on our servers. Card and payment-method data are collected and processed exclusively by our PCI-DSS certified payment processor ( Waffo Pancake ), as described under How We Share Information .
• Game Files & Local Storage : DLSS 5 Swapper runs locally on your Windows PC. When you scan a library, select a game or emulator folder, install DLSS 5, or restore originals, all file processing occurs on your hardware. We do not collect, upload, or transmit your game executables, DLSS files, backups, or save data.
• Usage & Analytics Data : We gather website usage metrics (e.g., pages visited, download links clicked, navigation flows, and setup guide interactions) to understand how the Site is used. Aggregated analytics help us keep documentation accurate and the Site reliable.
• Device & Technical Data : We automatically log technical details (browser type, operating system, IP address approximating general location, language preferences) when you visit the Site to maintain security, optimize performance, and diagnose website issues. Payment flows may also involve technical and fraud-prevention signals processed by Waffo Pancake.
• Cookies & Local Storage : We use cookies and local storage to remember preferences (such as language/locale selection), maintain sessions, and collect analytics. Checkout may also use cookies or similar technologies set by Waffo Pancake. Third-party advertisers, including Google, may also set cookies as described under Advertising Cookies below. You can control cookies through your browser settings, though disabling them may limit website or checkout functionality.

3. Product & Guide Improvements – To analyze community needs, improve website navigation, and keep guides aligned with current Windows builds.
4. Security & Abuse Prevention – To detect abuse, protect our infrastructure, verify official release downloads, prevent payment fraud, and safeguard the Site and downloadable software.

How We Share Information

• Payment Processor (Waffo Pancake) – Payment card data is processed exclusively by our PCI-DSS certified payment processor, Waffo Pancake , and is not stored on our servers . Full card numbers and sensitive authentication data are handled by Waffo Pancake. We may receive limited payment metadata (for example, payment status, amount, currency, customer email if provided, and transaction or order identifiers) so we can confirm purchases, grant benefits, and provide support. Waffo Pancake’s processing is governed by Waffo’s Privacy Policy and related terms.
• Service Providers that help us host infrastructure, provide analytics, send emails, or support community channels—each bound by confidentiality obligations.
• Community Platforms (e.g., GitHub or Nexus Mods) when you choose to report issues, participate in discussions, or download a release; your interactions are governed by their respective privacy policies.

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Transaction and payment metadata we receive (such as amount, status, and Waffo Pancake transaction identifiers) may be retained for accounting, tax, fraud prevention, and dispute-resolution purposes for a period required by applicable law or for as long as reasonably needed to resolve related issues, after which we delete or anonymize the data where practicable. Game files, DLSS backups, and installation logs created by the Windows app remain on your local device and are not retained by our servers.
