Privacy Policy

Overview

DiskFrend (“we”, “us”) is a local-first Mac app from Shivashish Yadav. Scanning, hashing, duplicate matching, compression, and cleanup history run on your Mac. Nothing from a disk scan leaves your Mac — we do not operate an analytics pipeline that collects file names or paths.

Data we collect

• App usage (local only). Scan results, staging lists, and activity history stay on your device. They are not uploaded to us.
• Licence activation. Activating a paid key may send a licence key and a device identifier to a licence service for activation only — not for analytics. After activation the app is designed to keep working offline, with an occasional background re-check when a network is available.
• Purchases. When you buy DiskFrend, payment and billing data are collected and processed by Dodo Payments, who acts as Merchant of Record. We never see or store your card details, UPI credentials, or full payment instrument numbers. We may receive order metadata needed to fulfil your licence (for example email and order ID).
• Support. If you email us, we receive the content of your message and your email address so we can reply.
• Website. This marketing site may use standard hosting logs (such as IP address, user agent, and requested URL) for security and reliability. We do not sell personal data. [If we add analytics cookies later, we will update this policy.]

Why we use data

We use licence and order information to deliver your key, prevent abuse, process refunds, and provide support. Local app data exists only so DiskFrend can show your disk map and cleanup history on your Mac.

Retention

Local scan and cleanup data remain on your Mac until you delete them or uninstall the app. Licence and order records are kept as long as needed to honour your licence, handle refunds, meet legal obligations, and resolve disputes. Support emails are retained for a reasonable period to complete your request. Payment records are retained by Dodo Payments under their policies.

Third parties

Dodo Payments is our Merchant of Record and payment processor. They process payments, issue invoices/receipts as applicable, and handle related tax and compliance obligations for the sale. Their privacy practices govern payment data. Hosting providers for this website may process standard server logs. We do not sell personal information.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain personal data we hold, or to object to certain processing. For payment-specific requests, we may direct you to Dodo Payments. To exercise rights regarding information we hold, contact us at the email below. We will respond within a reasonable time.

Cookies

This site is primarily static marketing content. We do not require account cookies. Essential hosting or security cookies may be set by the host. [No non-essential tracking cookies are used at this time.]
