Privacy Policy

Last updated 9 September 2026

EasyDB collects nothing about you. There are no accounts, no analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising identifiers, and no telemetry of any kind. There is no server to send anything to, because EasyDB has no backend.

Your databases

EasyDB only ever opens database files you choose yourself through the standard macOS open panel. EasyDB is sandboxed, which means macOS restricts the app to those files and it cannot go looking around your disk.

Recently opened databases are remembered as macOS security-scoped bookmarks stored in your app preferences on this Mac, so the list survives relaunches. That list holds file references only, never the contents of your databases.

Your queries

Query history is stored locally on your Mac, scoped to the database it belongs to, and capped at the most recent hundred queries per database. It records the SQL you ran, when you ran it, how long it took, and how many rows came back. You can clear it at any time from the query history popover.

The AI model

The natural-language feature runs a language model locally on your Mac using Apple's MLX framework. When you ask a question, your question and the relevant part of your database schema are given to that local model. They are not transmitted anywhere. The results of your queries are never sent to the model or anywhere else.

The one network request EasyDB makes

EasyDB connects to the internet for exactly one purpose: downloading the language model the first time you ask a question, or when you download it yourself from Settings. The model is fetched from Hugging Face, which will see your IP address the way any website you visit would. Their handling of that request is governed by their own privacy policy.

The model is stored in EasyDB's Application Support folder on your Mac. You can delete it at any time from Settings, and doing so leaves your databases and query history untouched. If you never ask a question, EasyDB never connects to the internet at all.

Purchases

EasyDB is sold through the Mac App Store, and Apple handles the transaction. We never see your payment details. Apple provides developers with aggregate sales figures that cannot identify individual customers. Apple's handling of purchase data is covered by Apple's privacy policy.

Children

EasyDB is a developer tool and is not directed at children. It collects no personal data from anyone, children included.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new date at the top. Material changes will also be noted in the app's release notes.
