privacy.
what optcmd.space stores, where it lives on disk, and what (if anything) leaves your machine.
where your captures are stored
captures live in a local SQLite database at ~/Library/Application Support/OCS/. the data model is an append-only event log: every capture, edit, and delete is an immutable event you can replay.
what the app sends over the network
apart from a periodic check for app updates, the app does not send any requests on launch, on save, or on any other action. crash reports are opt-in, off by default, and disabled until you turn them on in settings.
what the global hotkey can read
the global hotkey is registered with macOS so the panel can open from any app. optcmd.space only reads what you type inside its own panel; it does not capture keystrokes from other apps.
encrypted sync (still on the roadmap)
encrypted sync is planned as an opt-in paid product. it will be end-to-end encrypted, never required, never the default. the local app works fully without it. when sync ships, it will be off until you turn it on, and the keys will live on your devices, not on the server.
things the app does not collect
- no analytics, no event tracking, no fingerprinting.
- no account, no email, no sign-up.
- no third-party SDKs that phone home.
- no advertising identifiers.
