Privacy Policy
Last Updated: October 13, 2026
1. Introduction
Scan My Disk ("we", "us", or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our desktop application and website.
2. Data We Don't Collect
Scanned Results: Scan My Disk runs 100% locally on your machine. We do not store, upload, or transmit your individual file names, folder structures, or the results of your disk scans to any server. Your privacy is baked into the app by design.
Local Files: Your files never leave your Windows PC. We only analyze metadata (like size and type) locally to provide visualizations, without ever accessing the content of your documents.
3. Data We Collect
We may collect minimal usage data to handle purchases and license validation:
- Payment Information: Processed securely by our payment provider (Dodo Payments). We do not store your credit card details.
- License Keys: To validate your lifetime license.
- Email Address: Used for sending license keys and critical product updates.
4. Website Analytics
We use DataFast to understand website visits and navigation. Its SDK processes page paths, referring websites, browser and device information, and visitor and session identifiers stored in your browser. Analytics requests also expose network information such as your IP address to the service. We do not send your license key, purchase email, scanned files, or checkout order query parameters as analytics events. Website analytics is separate from local disk scanning in the Windows app. We also pass the DataFast visitor identifier to Dodo Payments in checkout metadata so completed payments can be attributed to referring websites and marketing campaigns in DataFast.
5. Third-Party Services
We use the following trusted third-party services:
- Dodo Payments: For payment processing and license management.
- DataFast: For website traffic and navigation analytics.
