SheetScrub privacy policy
Effective date: 2026-10-07 · App version: 1.0.0+ · Vendor: Indmak (support@indmak.com). This is the website version; a short version also ships in the app under Settings → Legal & support.
1. The short version
.xlsx / .xlsm files.- Network is used only for licensing. The app contacts
https://www.indmak.com(backup:*.workers.dev) to start/query your trial, activate/verify/deactivate your license, and check for updates. - What we receive: device fingerprint (
sha256:+ hash — never the raw machine ID), device name, license key, app version/platform. No document content, no file names, no keywords. - What stays on your device: license file, trial record, clock-protection state, evidence bundles (your own audit records), settings (theme/density/language). Uninstall + deleting these folders removes them.
2. Data we process
| Data | Where | Purpose | Legal basis (GDPR) |
|---|---|---|---|
Device fingerprint (sha256: hash) | Sent to server | Bind trial/license to one device (max 1), prevent duplicate trials | Contract performance |
Device name (e.g. WORKSTATION-AB12) | Sent to server (optional display field) | Show your devices, abuse prevention | Legitimate interest |
License key (IND-…) | Sent to server | Activate / verify / deactivate | Contract performance |
| App version, platform, arch | Sent on update check | Tell you about new releases | Legitimate interest |
| Workbook content, findings, keywords | Never leaves the device | Local inspection/cleaning | N/A |
| Support messages you send us | Email / support-center form | Answer your request | Consent / contract |
We do not use advertising SDKs, analytics SDKs, or cross-app trackers in SheetScrub.
3. Local storage (on your device only)
- Windows:
%APPDATA%\com.indmak.sheetscrub\(license.json,trial.json,.license.state,evidence_signing_key) - macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/com.indmak.sheetscrub/ - Evidence bundles (your audit records): first writable non-system drive as
<drive>:\SheetScrub\Evidence, else%USERPROFILE%\SheetScrub\Evidence(macOS:~/Documents/SheetScrub/Evidence) - UI settings (theme, density, language): standard app preferences store
Evidence files are your own records (before/after findings, hashes, reports, signature). Anyone with access to your computer can read them — protect your device accordingly. Deleting an evidence folder in the app permanently deletes it from disk.
4. Your rights
You may request access, correction, or deletion of the licensing data we hold (fingerprint, device name, key association) at any time via support@indmak.com or the support center. Deactivating a license in the app (Settings → Deactivate) frees the device seat server-side. Trial records expire automatically.
5. Minors, retention, changes
SheetScrub is a general productivity tool, not directed at children under 13. Licensing records are kept while your license/trial is active and for a reasonable period afterwards (fraud prevention; tax records for paid orders via our merchant of record). If this policy changes materially, we will update this page and note it in the release notes.
