1. What the Locseek app collects
Zero collection. The Locseek app does not collect, upload, sell, or share personal data. It requires no account, includes no third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs, and requests no contacts, location, camera, or microphone access.
2. What the local index contains
The local index stores only the metadata required for file-name search: file or folder name, parent path, size, modification time, creation time, and kind markers. Locseek does not open or read file contents and builds no full-text content index.
3. Scope of file access
The Mac App Store build runs inside the macOS App Sandbox and can access only locations you explicitly grant through the system folder picker. Grants are stored using security-scoped bookmarks provided by macOS. You can remove a granted location in Locseek settings; removal only affects the index scope and never deletes files on disk.
4. Network and transmission
No network, zero transmission. Locseek's indexing and search features make no network requests. Queries, file lists, and index metadata are never sent to our servers or any third party. Opening this policy, the support page, or the App Store is handed off by macOS to your default browser or the App Store app.
5. Purchase and payment
Locseek offers a free tier and Locseek Pro. Pro is sold through Apple's in-app purchase system as an annual subscription (with a 14-day free trial for eligible users) or a one-time lifetime purchase. We never touch your payment card details. Purchases, refunds, and entitlement status are managed by Apple under its terms; Locseek only reads the entitlement status Apple provides to decide whether Pro is unlocked.
6. Deleting local data
You can rebuild or clear the local index in Settings. When you uninstall the Mac App Store build, macOS normally removes the data in its app container; if the system or a backup keeps a copy, it is governed by your macOS and backup settings.

8. Policy updates
If the product's data handling changes materially, we will update this policy and its date on this page. Locseek will never quietly turn its local-only, zero-collection promise into cloud collection without clear notice.
