Privacy Policy
1. What we collect
When you activate a license, Mole sends the license key, a short device label (derived from your Mac's hostname and a hashed hardware fingerprint), and nothing else. These are sent to Dodo Payments over HTTPS for activation and validation.
2. What we do not collect
Mole does not collect, transmit, or upload file contents, file names, browsing history, documents, passwords, or any data scanned during cleaning. All scanning and cleaning happen locally on your device. Mole keeps a local operation log on your Mac for your reference; this log never leaves your device.
3. Third-party services
Dodo Payments is the merchant of record for Mole. It handles checkout, billing, license key delivery, refunds, and invoices. During checkout, Dodo collects your name, email, and billing address under its own privacy policy. Mole's own signed updates are fetched from https://mole.fit/appcast.xml over HTTPS via Sparkle; app update checks and installs may contact the App Store, Homebrew, or each app's Sparkle feed. When you open Network detail in the Mac app, Mole requests https://mole.fit/api/ip to show the current public IP; that endpoint may make a tokenless, fail-soft lookup to ipwho.is for approximate location and ISP. The website uses Google Analytics to measure aggregate visits; Google processes that website analytics data under its own privacy policy. The Mac app does not include Google Analytics.
4. Data storage
The license key is stored in the macOS Keychain on your device. We do not maintain a user database beyond what Dodo Payments keeps for transaction records.
5. Your rights
You can deactivate the license at any time from within the app. You may also request access to, correction of, or deletion of any personal data we hold by emailing hi@mole.fit. We will respond within 30 days. If you are in the EU/EEA, you have additional rights under the GDPR, including data portability and the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
