Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 25, 2026

Thank you for using Local Desktop ("we", "our", "us"). This privacy policy explains how we handle information related to:

  • the Local Desktop app
  • the Local Desktop: Pantheon app
  • the Local Desktop website at https://localdesktop.github.io

We are committed to being transparent about what we collect and why.

1. Local Desktop App​

The Local Desktop app does not ask for or intentionally collect personal information such as your name, email address, location, contacts, camera data, or the contents of your files.

However, we use Sentry for crash reporting and diagnostics. When the app encounters an error, Sentry may collect technical information such as:

  • Device information (such as OS version and model)
  • Application state and logs
  • IP address (used to group errors geographically)
  • Debugging context (such as username, if your system environment provides one)

We use this information only to investigate crashes, diagnose bugs, and improve app stability and performance.

Local Desktop: Pantheon​

The Local Desktop: Pantheon app does not collect or send any personal or technical information. It has no crash reporting or analytics, and the desktop it runs works offline. When you buy it on Google Play, Google handles the payment under its own privacy policy, and we only receive the order details Google shares with developers.

2. Local Desktop Website​

The Local Desktop website uses the following third-party services:

  • Google Analytics to understand general website usage, such as page views and traffic patterns
  • Microsoft Clarity to understand how visitors interact with pages, such as clicks, scrolling, and navigation behavior
  • Google AdSense code and account verification tags to connect the site to AdSense and, if approved, support ad serving

These services may collect information such as IP address, browser type, device information, referrer information, and on-site interaction data. They may also use cookies or similar technologies, subject to their own policies and your browser settings.

3. How We Use Information​

We use app and website information to:

  • monitor reliability and performance
  • diagnose crashes and fix bugs
  • understand how people use the website
  • improve documentation, content, and user experience
  • connect the site to AdSense and comply with AdSense requirements

We do not sell your personal data.

4. Third-Party Services​

Some information is processed by third-party service providers that operate these services on our behalf or as independent controllers under their own terms:

Please review those policies for more details about how they handle data.

5. Children’s Privacy​

Local Desktop is not specifically directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have unintentionally collected such information, please contact us and we will address it promptly.

6. Data Retention​

We retain technical and diagnostic information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, including troubleshooting, analytics, and site operations.

Retention periods may vary depending on the third-party service involved.

7. Your Rights and Choices​

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or clarification regarding data associated with you.

You may also limit some website tracking through your browser settings, cookie controls, or third-party privacy tools.
