Privacy Policy #

Last updated: January 2026

Overview #

Issuenator is a macOS app written by Dachary Carey.

The Issuenator website is designed to provide information about the Issuenator app for users who may be interested in its functionality.

The privacy policy detailed herein applies to both the:

  • Issuenator macOS App
  • Issuenator website

The Issuenator macOS App #

Overview #

Issuenator is designed with privacy in mind. Your data stays on your device.

Data Collection #

Issuenator does not collect any personal data.

  • No analytics or tracking
  • No data sent to third-party services
  • No accounts or registration required

Data Storage #

All application data is stored locally on your Mac:

  • Issue data: Stored in a local SwiftData database
  • GitHub API token: Stored securely in the macOS Keychain
  • Settings and preferences: Stored locally in app storage

GitHub API #

Issuenator communicates only with GitHub’s API to fetch issue data from repositories you’ve added. This requires a GitHub personal access token that you provide. The token is:

  • Stored securely in macOS Keychain
  • Used only to authenticate with GitHub’s API
  • Never sent anywhere else

Log Data #

If you request support for a bug, I may ask for details about your app usage or Log Data from your device to help me reproduce and diagnose the bug. This Log Data may include information such as your device Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, device name, operating system version, the configuration of the app when utilizing my Service, the time and date of your use of the Service, and other statistics. Providing that information is completely up to you, and I only use that data to debug issues you report.

Issuenator also prints data to a log that you can access while the app is running. That data is only retained in memory during app execution, and is cleared when you close the app. That information never leaves your machine. You can clear this log at any point during app execution. You can optionally export the log to a local file to copy details for debugging, but that requires you to manually export the data.

Third-Party Services #

Issuenator does not integrate with any third-party analytics, advertising, or data collection services.

Data Deletion #

To remove all Issuenator data:

  1. Delete the app from your Mac
  2. Remove the API token from Keychain Access (search for “Issuenator”)

Issuenator Website #

Information Collection and Use #

The Issuenator website does not directly collect any personal information. However, if you submit a request through the website form, I request personally identifiable information including Name, Email address, and information about your request. I only collect this information for the replying to your query. I never share this information with any other party. I will retain the information for a period of up to one year. At that time, I will delete any personally identifable information. You may contact me at any time through the form at the Website to request deletion of your personal information.

Cookies #

Cookies are files with a small amount of data that are commonly used as anonymous unique identifiers. These are sent to your browser from the websites that you visit and are stored on your device’s internal memory.

The Issuenator Website does not use these “cookies” explicitly. However, the Website may use third-party code and libraries that use “cookies” to collect information and improve their services. A full list of these third-party services is provided so you may examine their Privacy Policies.

Service Providers #

I may employ third-party companies and individuals due to the following reasons:

  • To facilitate our Website;
  • To provide the Website on our behalf;
  • To perform Website-related services; or
  • To assist us in analyzing how our Website is used.

I want to inform users of this Website that these third parties may have access to personal data. Third-party services may use analytics to collect usage about their product. However, they are obligated not to disclose or use the information for any other purpose.

Currently, the third-party companies and services used on this Website are:

Security #

I value your trust in using my Website and app, thus I strive to use commercially acceptable means of protecting it. But remember that no method of transmission over the internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure and reliable, and I cannot guarantee its absolute security.

This Website may contain links to other sites. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that site. Note that these external sites are not operated by me. Therefore, I strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of these websites. I have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.

Children’s Privacy

I do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children. I encourage all children to never submit any personally identifiable information through the Application and/or Website. I encourage parents and legal guardians to monitor their children’s Internet usage and to help enforce this Policy by instructing their children never to provide personally identifiable information through the Application and/or Website without their permission. If you have reason to believe that a child has provided personally identifiable information to me through the Application and/or Website, please contact me. You must also be at least 16 years of age to consent to the processing of your personally identifiable information in your country (in some countries we may allow your parent or guardian to do so on your behalf).
