Privacy Policy

Google recently sent us a note requiring this page to be linked to our development account, though it is quite unnecessary because all our apps have their own specific Privacy Policy clearly written in their Help pages (look near the bottom). Still, here is a generic set of statements that are good for all our apps:

• What information we collect from you: one word: NOTHING. All our apps run locally and do not connect to any server other than Google, and that minimally. We believe servers are evil.

• Still, some of the apps (PassLok, SeeOnce, SynthPass, FusionKey) do store data in Chrome sync in order to provide a seamless experience as you change computers. This means that it gets sent to Google, which stores it somewhere we don't know. All potentially sensitive data sent to Chrome sync, however, is encrypted before syncing with a key that does not get synced or even stored locally, so Google cannot get the plain data even if they wanted to.

• VideoSkip has a companion website, the VideoSkip Exchange, where users can post skip files they write and get skip files posted by other users. The process is initiated and completed by the user, and entirely voluntary.

• How we use that information: given that we collect nothing from you, it brings us closer to Nirvana. Ah, the peace!

• In the case of data synced to Google, we don't believe they can do anything with it, either, since all sensitive information is encrypted before sending.

• VideoSkip files remain in the Exchange so other users can download them until the users who posted them (or the Administrator) delete them. Otherwise we make no use of them.

• What information we share:  VideoSkip files in the Exchange, or the users' login profiles, are not shared with anyone, with the exception of the direct download of the skip files. Automated downloads are prohibited.

• Besides that, only this one bit, and right here: if we catch anyone, including Google or any government, messing with our code to install backdoors or suchlike, we're going to hunt you down and beat you with a wet noodle until you ooze yellow blood.
