Terms

Last updated 22 September 2026.

Written by the people who built Wire Goose, describing how it actually behaves. It is not legal advice.

The free app

Wire Goose watches which apps on your computer send data where, and shows the last three days of it. It is free, needs no account, and stays free.

Pro

Wire Goose Pro adds blocking, Quit and Kill, Reveal in Finder, exports, the table, and every day kept. It is one payment for a licence key, and the key works for every 1.x release of Wire Goose. A 2.0, if there is one, is a separate decision, made then.

The key arrives when payment clears

The key arrives the moment payment clears: it is issued when Stripe reports the payment as paid, shown on the page and sent to the email you bought with. That email is your receipt. The free build is the same app, so what Pro adds can be seen before buying.

Your licence

One key is for one person: you may use it on every computer you use, as long as you are the only user. It may not be sold, lent or given away. The key carries the email you bought with, and the app shows it.

Published keys are withdrawn

A key found published is withdrawn in the next release, which then treats it as not issued. A withdrawn key is not replaced unless it was published by someone else, in which case write to us from the email you bought with.

Blocking is yours

What you block stops connecting, and may stop working, until you unblock it. Unblocking is one click and needs no permission. Wire Goose blocks nothing you did not block.

No promises

Wire Goose is provided as it is. It may change, its prices may change, and a release may stop supporting an older operating system. A key you hold stays valid for every 1.x release regardless. If Wire Goose is ever discontinued, the key you hold keeps working in the last release.
