Privacy Policy · Kaluach™ for the Mac

Available on the Mac App Store

Kaluach™ for the Mac collects no personal data. There are no accounts, no ads, no analytics and no tracking.

Where your data is kept

Your events, saved locations, custom zmanim shitot, alarm settings and preferences are stored on your Mac (and in your Mac’s own backups). The developer never receives them.

iCloud

When you are signed into iCloud, your events, saved locations and custom zmanim shitot are also kept in your own iCloud account, so that they are the same on your other Macs and in iKaluach on your iPhone. They are stored and transferred by Apple under Apple’s privacy policy; the developer has no access to them. Alarm settings and preferences stay on each device. If iCloud is off for the app, nothing leaves your Mac.

Location

Location is optional. If you choose Use My Location, your position is used on the Mac to calculate zmanim. To show the place’s name and time zone, the app asks Apple’s map service, as Apple’s own apps do. When you search for a city, the text you type is sent to Apple’s map service to find matching places. These requests are handled by Apple under Apple’s privacy policy; the developer does not receive them.

Alarms and reminders

Zmanim alarms and event reminders are scheduled on the Mac itself. Nothing is sent to a server.

Contact form

If you write through the support page, the name, email address and message you enter are delivered to the developer by the form service Web3Forms and used only to answer you.

Children

The app collects no data from anyone, including children.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page.
