Loadout runs with administrator rights and modifies system settings (power plan, registry, processes). Security is therefore a first-order concern.
Project guarantees:
- No network communication is performed for telemetry or data collection. The only possible network actions are explicit and user-initiated.
- Every system change is backed up and reversible (see the guiding
principle in
CONTRIBUTING.md). - The code is fully open source and auditable.
If you discover a security flaw, do not open a public issue.
Instead use GitHub Security Advisories for a private report, or contact the maintainer directly.
You can expect:
- a first response within 72 hours;
- an assessment and, if confirmed, a prioritized fix;
- credit in the release notes (unless you prefer to remain anonymous).
As the project is under active development, only the latest version of the
main branch receives security fixes.
