Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

NotchDev is a macOS app that runs entirely on your Mac. It shows you information you already have access to — dev servers, git status, Claude usage, your network — and keeps that information on your device.

What NotchDev reads (locally)

Listening ports and process info on your Mac (via lsof/ps), to show your dev servers.
The status of local git repositories you point it at.
Your network interfaces and IPs, to show your local/public IP and QR.
Optional tokens: a GitHub token you provide (kept in your macOS Keychain), and — only if you turn on exact Claude usage — your Claude Code login token (read from the Keychain), used only to call those services on your behalf. Your license and trial status are stored locally on your Mac.

This data stays on your Mac. NotchDev runs no server that collects it.

What leaves your Mac

License checks: your license key and a device name are sent to Lemon Squeezy to activate and validate your subscription.
Trial validation: to keep the free trial fair, the app sends a one-way hash of your Mac's hardware ID — never the raw ID, and no personal data — to our own trial service, so the trial can't be reset simply by reinstalling.
Updates: the app fetches an update feed to check for new versions.
Services you enable: Claude usage is fetched from Anthropic with your own credentials; CI status from GitHub with your own token; tunnels use ngrok if you start one. These go directly from your Mac to those providers.

Payments

Purchases are handled by Lemon Squeezy, our Merchant of Record, under their own privacy policy. NotchDev never sees your card details.

Website analytics

This website uses Vercel Web Analytics, which counts page views anonymously and without cookies. No personal profiles are built.

Your control

Removing your tokens or deleting the app removes the local data. You can cancel your subscription anytime from the customer portal.
