Your code never leaves your Mac.
The short version: CodeDraft doesn't collect, transmit, or sell any of your data. Here's the complete, plain-language policy behind that claim.
Effective 20 July 2026
The short version
- No sign-up or account is required to use CodeDraft.
- Your files, drafts, and search index live only on your Mac.
- ⌘K draft search runs fully on-device — nothing is sent anywhere to search.
- The only outbound network requests are the ones described below, and every one is something you triggered on purpose.
The CodeDraft app
CodeDraft is a native macOS app that works entirely on your own machine. Opening, editing, saving, and searching files never touches the network — the editor core is designed around local, memory-mapped files, not a server.
The one exception is the optional "Download More Fonts…" command in the Font menu. If — and only if — you choose it, CodeDraft fetches the font files you picked from that project's public GitHub release URL over HTTPS, and installs them into your Mac's font library. That request carries nothing about you or your files beyond a normal HTTP request (your IP address, handled by GitHub's servers — not something CodeDraft collects or sees).
CodeDraft does not run any analytics SDK, does not phone home usage statistics, and does not report crashes to us or anyone else.
This website
codedraft.app is a static site with no sign-up, no cookies, and no analytics script of any kind. Like any website, our hosting provider (Cloudflare) processes standard request metadata — IP address, browser type — to serve pages and protect against abuse. We don't add anything on top of that.
Third parties
Two, and only two:
GitHub — the source of the optional font downloads described above.
Cloudflare — hosts this website and serves the Font Awesome stylesheet used for icons.
No ad network, analytics platform, or data broker is involved anywhere in CodeDraft or this site.
Changes to this policy
If this policy ever changes, the date at the top of this page will change with it. Meaningful changes — anything that adds data collection where there was none — will be called out clearly, not buried in a rewrite.
