DocTalk Privacy Policy

Effective Date: November 13, 2026

1.Overview

DocTalk is a local-first workspace app for Mac and iPhone. This policy explains what data the app handles, where that data lives, and what the developer does and does not receive. The short version: your workspace content stays with you, and the developer collects nothing from the app.

2.Your Workspace Content Stays With You

Your documents and workspaces are stored on your device and in storage locations you choose — for example, a local folder, a network or shared folder (such as an SMB share), or a household or company share. The developer does not operate servers that receive or store your workspace content, and the developer cannot access it.

DocTalk features such as personal and company workspaces, invitation-based joining, role-based permissions, offline editing, and review-and-approve change flows all work against that device and user-chosen storage. The audit log is kept inside the workspace itself, in the same storage, and is visible to workspace members according to their permissions.

Because your content lives in storage you choose, whoever controls that storage location controls access to the files in it. Please use storage you trust, and note that a company workspace may also be subject to your organization's own policies.

3.Information the Developer Collects

The developer collects no data from the DocTalk app:

No analytics.
No tracking.
No advertising.
No account is required to use DocTalk for personal workspaces.

App settings and preferences are stored on your device only and are never transmitted to the developer.

4.Organization Sign-In

If you sign in to a company workspace with an organization account (for example, a Microsoft account provided by your employer), that sign-in is handled by your organization and its identity provider. Their privacy terms govern the sign-in itself, and the developer does not receive your password. Your organization may also set policies for its workspaces and shared storage.

5.Support Emails

If you contact support, the developer receives only what you choose to send: your email address and the contents of your message. It is used only to respond to and handle your request.

Please do not send passwords, sign-in tokens, recovery keys, invitation codes, or confidential workspace documents, and remove personal information from screenshots before sharing them.

6.Deleting Your Data

You can delete your documents and workspaces at any time from your device and from the storage locations you chose, subject to your permissions in shared workspaces and the storage owner's controls. Uninstalling DocTalk removes the app and its on-device settings. To ask about or request deletion of information you previously sent in a support email, contact us as described below with the subject “DocTalk Privacy Request.”

7.Children's Privacy

DocTalk is a general-audience productivity app and is not directed at children. As explained above, the app collects no data from any user.

8.Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
