Policy
Privacy
Documents stay on your Mac
So Markdown reads Markdown files and permitted local images on your Mac. It does not send document content, filenames or reading history anywhere. It does not modify source documents.
Local preferences
Your reading preferences and imported style files are stored locally. So Markdown does not use them for analytics or advertising.
Network access
Remote images load by default and can be turned off in Settings. When a document references an http or https image, So Markdown makes a temporary, bounded download request to that image’s host. The host receives the requested image address, your IP address and ordinary network information. So Markdown does not send the document text, filename or a referring page, and it does not retain cookies or a web cache for these downloads.
Remote stylesheets, fonts, scripts and embedded web pages remain blocked. If you click an http or https link, its destination is passed to your default browser. Your browser and the destination website then operate under their own privacy policies.
Printing and PDF
When you print or save as PDF, macOS receives the rendered document and sends it to the destination you choose.
Apple services
Apple controls the App Store, Quick Look and system diagnostics. Information handled by those services is governed by Apple’s policies and your device settings.
Support email
If you email support, we receive the information you choose to send. It is used to answer your request. Please do not send private documents unless they are necessary and you are comfortable sharing them.
