App Store privacy summary

The current macOS and iOS privacy manifests declare app-functionality user content and no tracking. This page can be used as Datark's App Store privacy policy URL.

  • Tracking: not used.
  • Tracking domains: none declared.
  • Declared data category: Other User Content.
  • Purpose: App Functionality.
  • Not linked to the user.
  • Not used for tracking.

No tracking, advertising, or analytics

Datark does not include analytics scripts, advertising identifiers, or third-party tracking domains. The macOS and iOS privacy manifests set tracking to false.

Information stored on your device

Datark may store app-functionality content locally, including:

  • database and SSH connection profiles, excluding raw passwords;
  • saved queries, query history, settings, and workspace preferences;
  • SSH known hosts and tunnel configuration;
  • database passwords, SSH keys, and AI provider API keys in the Apple Keychain.

Network access

Datark connects to database servers, SSH hosts, and local network services that you configure. The app uses network access for the database, terminal, SFTP, tunnel, and AI-provider workflows you start inside the app.

AI assistant behavior

Datark supports on-device models, local AI endpoints, and cloud AI providers. On-device AI runs locally. Local endpoint AI sends requests only to the endpoint you configure, such as a localhost model server.

Cloud AI providers require explicit consent in Settings. When consent is granted, Datark may send prompts, SQL text, schema metadata, error text, and optional image attachments to the selected provider for app functionality. The provider controls retention and processing under its own terms. Datark does not use this content for tracking, advertising, analytics, or profiling.

iCloud and sync

If sync features are enabled, app metadata such as connection information, saved queries, and settings may be synced for app functionality. Passwords and SSH private keys remain in the Apple Keychain.

Required reason APIs

The current privacy manifests declare UserDefaults, file timestamp, and system boot time access for app functionality. These required-reason API declarations are not tracking declarations.
