Security & Verification
Every BMM release publishes its SHA-256 checksums so you can verify that what you downloaded is exactly what was released — this page shows the current release's verification data.
Official downloads
BeamNG Mod Manager is distributed only through the official channels listed below. A download from anywhere else is not an official release — verify its checksum before trusting it.
Digital signature
Official releases are digitally signed by the developer using an identity-verified certificate issued by Microsoft. To inspect the signature: right-click the installer → Properties → Digital Signatures.
Current release verification

To verify: open PowerShell in your download folder and run Get-FileHash .\BeamNG-Mod-Manager-0.8.47-Setup.exe -Algorithm SHA256 — the result must match the SHA-256 shown above exactly.
Privacy & network behavior
BMM reads your mod library folder ("Mod Storage"), the BeamNG/BeamMP mod folders you point it at, and BeamNG's own statistics file. It modifies only its own library and the mod links it creates; when BeamNG closes it also moves newly added mods from the mods folder into your library (on by default, can be turned off in Settings) — it never edits game files, outside of two explicit user-clicked actions that are documented in the app.
By default, nothing identifying leaves your PC. Optional anonymous telemetry (off until you opt in) counts six events: app launch, onboarding completion, theme changes, external link clicks, and Patreon connect start/success. Mod names, file paths, and files themselves are never transmitted.
Network calls are: checking for app updates (the check runs automatically at launch and when you click Check — nothing ever downloads or installs without your click), fetching the BeamMP server list, mod update checks (when you click Check, or automatically at launch if you turn that on) and downloads you start against the official BeamNG repository, fetching BMM's curated creator-support and supporter data from our own server, and Patreon membership verification if you connect a Patreon account.
