Privacy policy for Mac Apps
In this document we inform you about the processing and the privacy of your personal data when using our services and applications. Your privacy is very important to us. Accordingly, we have developed this Policy in order for you to understand how we collect, use, communicate and disclose and make use of personal information. The following outlines our privacy policy.
In a nutshell
- We don’t ask you for personal information and we do not collect any system/computer data. We do not access your files, folders or system information (unless the application needs such access to make features available – for example storage cleanup).
- We don’t share your personal information with anyone and we do not have any remote service that receives your stored or collected data.
- We don’t store your personal information or data on our servers in any way.
- In our products, we aim to make it as simple as possible for you to control what’s visible to the public, kept private and permanently deleted.
- If you use an in-app purchase feature, when you click the Upgrade Product button we will register the click anonymously, without any identification data. This is used for technical reasons and not for marketing reasons.
- We will make readily available to customers information about our policies and practices relating to the management of personal information.
We are committed to conducting our business in accordance with these principles in order to ensure that the confidentiality of personal information is protected and maintained.
Personal data
“Personal data” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. If we are not (or at least not without a disproportionate amount of time and effort) able to relate a direct link to you personally, this information is not personal data.
Processing personal data
1. General principle
In general, you can visit and read most parts of our website contents without providing any personal data.

For the process of retrieving your requested information from our websites, our servers store certain data needed for service delivery and/or for statistical or security purposes in anonymized form.

If you use an in-app purchase feature, when you click the Upgrade Product button we will register the click anonymously, without any identification data. This is used for technical reasons and not for marketing reasons.
