2. Scope

This policy describes how we process personal data for:

  • account access and license activation for the website version of Dicta,
  • support and legal compliance.

It also explains data protection for the Mac App Store version, where payment and account data are handled by Apple.

3. Data We Process

We process only data needed to operate billing and licensing:

  • Account data: email address, account identifiers, marketing consent flag.
  • Authentication data: one-time sign-in code hashes, session token hashes, expiration and usage timestamps.
  • License and device data: random device ID, app version, build number, activation timestamps, session activity timestamps.
  • Billing data: Stripe customer/subscription identifiers, plan, currency, amounts, invoice lifecycle metadata.
  • Invoicing/tax data: name, country, tax ID and billing address details when provided during checkout.
  • Website analytics data (optional): page path, page URL, page title, referrer, browser/device signals, and conversion events (for example: download_click, begin_checkout, download_start, purchase) collected through Google Analytics 4 only after your analytics consent.
  • Security and abuse-prevention data: request metadata such as IP address used for rate limiting and infrastructure security.
  • Support correspondence: information you send us by email.

8. Retention

We retain personal data only as long as needed for the purposes above:

  • Account, entitlement, and subscription records: for account lifecycle and contractual support.
  • Billing and tax records: for statutory accounting/tax retention periods.
  • Authentication/session logs: for security, fraud prevention, and incident investigation.
  • Support communications: while needed to resolve the request and maintain support history.

9. Security

  • Authentication codes and session tokens are stored as hashes, not plaintext.
  • Access to production systems is limited to authorized operators.
  • Payment card details are processed by Stripe, not stored by us.
