Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 12, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how DigitalDream Apps LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you use any of our applications, software, websites, and related services (collectively, the “Apps”). This Policy applies to all Apps we publish under our developer account, including macOS desktop and menu bar utilities such as widget collections (e.g., clipboard, photos, videos, launcher, bookmarks, default browser switcher, daily quote, countdowns, focus timer, documents, and system switches).
Summary
- We design our Apps to process most data on-device. Many features work without sending data to our servers.
- We do not sell your personal data. We do not use your content for advertising.
- Some features require system permissions (e.g., Files & Folders, Photos, Clipboard access) solely to provide the requested functionality.
- Limited diagnostic data may be collected to keep the Apps reliable and secure. Where applicable, you can opt out of analytics.
- If you use AI features powered by the official Gemini API, the content you submit for generation is sent to Google only to fulfill your request.
- You can contact us anytime at [email protected].
Information We Process
On-Device Content You Choose to Use in the Apps
- Clipboard: The clipboard widget reads clipboard entries locally to display your history and facilitate pasting. Clipboard data is processed on-device and is not transmitted to our servers.
- Photos & Videos: If you choose to display media, the App reads only the items you select or the folders you grant access to.
- Documents: If you link folders or files for quick access or preview, the App reads only the content necessary to show file names, metadata, or previews.
- Bookmarks & App Launcher: We store the links and configuration you provide in local app storage or files under your user profile.
- Default Browser Switcher: The App writes system-default browser settings with your consent and does not read your browsing history.
- Daily Quote / Online Content: If enabled, the App may fetch quotes or metadata from online sources. Requests typically include only standard network headers and do not identify you personally.
- Countdowns & Focus Timer: Timers, schedules, and labels are stored locally.
- System Switches: Toggles (e.g., Wi‑Fi, brightness, etc.) act on your device settings and do not transmit content to us.
AI Features (Official Gemini API)
Some Apps provide AI chat, rewriting, or summarization features using the official Google Gemini API. When you choose to use these features, we process only the data needed to complete your request.
- What may be sent off-device: Your prompt text, files/images you explicitly submit, and limited technical metadata (for example: app version, request timestamp, and error codes).
- Purpose: Generating and returning AI output, abuse prevention, service reliability, and debugging.
- No sale / no ad profiling by us: We do not sell AI input/output data and do not use your AI content to build advertising profiles.
- Third-party processing: Requests are transmitted to Google as our AI service provider. Google handles data under its own terms and privacy commitments. By using AI features, you instruct us to send your submitted content to that provider to fulfill the request.
- Sensitive data warning: Please avoid submitting highly sensitive personal information unless strictly necessary for your intended use.
Device & Diagnostics
To maintain stability and security, the Apps or the operating system may collect device information (e.g., model, OS version), event logs, crash data, and performance metrics. Where supported, this may be provided by Apple or trusted analytics/crash reporting providers. We use this data only to fix bugs, improve performance, and prevent abuse.
Account & Purchases
If an App offers in‑app purchases or subscriptions via the App Store, Apple processes payment information. We receive non-sensitive purchase metadata (e.g., product identifier, subscription status) to unlock features and provide support. We do not receive your full payment details.
How We Use Information
- Provide, operate, personalize, and secure the Apps and features you request.
- Process permissions and settings you enable (e.g., files access, photos, clipboard).
- Diagnose problems, debug, and improve performance and usability.
- Communicate with you about updates, support, and safety notices.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms.
Data Storage & Retention
App data you create (e.g., widget configurations, timers, bookmarks) is typically stored on your device and, if you choose, backed up by your system or cloud provider (e.g., iCloud, Time Machine). Diagnostic data, where collected, is retained only as long as necessary for the purposes described above.
For AI features, we do not store full prompts/responses on our own servers longer than needed to return the result, except where temporary retention is required for security, fraud prevention, or debugging. If temporary logs are kept, we limit retention to a short period and delete or de-identify data when no longer required. Data processed by third-party AI providers is retained under their applicable policies.
Sharing
- Vendors & Service Providers: We may share limited data with service providers (e.g., analytics, crash reporting) under contracts that require them to use the data only on our behalf.
- AI Service Provider (Gemini API): If you use AI features, the content you submit for inference is shared with Google to generate responses. We require service providers to protect user data with safeguards that are equal to or stronger than those described in this Policy and applicable platform rules.
- Legal & Safety: We may disclose information if required by law or to protect our rights, users, or the public.
- No Sale of Personal Data: We do not sell personal data.
International Transfers
If we transfer information across borders, we use appropriate safeguards consistent with applicable laws.
Your Choices
- Permissions: You can grant or revoke system permissions (Files, Photos, etc.) in macOS System Settings > Privacy & Security.
- AI Features Consent: You can stop using AI features at any time. Where the App provides an AI toggle, disabling it withdraws consent for future AI requests.
- Analytics/Crash Reporting: Where an opt-out is offered, it will be available in the App’s settings.
- Access, Deletion, and Correction: You may request access to, deletion of, or correction of your personal information by emailing [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity.
- Delete AI Data Requests: If you believe AI-related personal data was retained by us, contact us at [email protected] with sufficient details so we can locate and delete it where legally permitted.
Children’s Privacy
Our Apps are not directed to children under 13 (or the age required by your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child provided personal information, please contact us to delete it.
Security
We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the nature of the data we process. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.
Third‑Party Services
Our Apps may interact with third‑party services (e.g., Apple frameworks, system APIs, or content endpoints). Your use of those services is governed by their respective policies and terms. We are not responsible for third‑party practices.
For Gemini-powered features, relevant third-party terms may include Google Gemini API and Google Privacy terms published by Google.
Trademarks & Icons
Third‑party names, icons, and trademarks that may appear in the Apps are used solely for identification or demonstration and do not imply endorsement or affiliation.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. We will change the “Last updated” date above and, when appropriate, provide additional notice within the Apps or on our website.
