Effective date: August 16, 2026

Product: CodeXClean (macOS)

Key statement: CodeXClean is a standalone, offline utility. The app itself does not connect to the internet, does not collect, does not upload, and does not transmit your personal data or file contents to any server. Scanning and cleaning happen entirely on your Mac.

1. Who we are

CodeXClean is an independent third-party macOS utility that helps developers inspect and remove local development caches commonly related to Xcode workflows. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Apple Inc.

2. Information we process

After you explicitly grant access, the app may read or delete local file/folder metadata on your Mac (such as names, paths, sizes, and dates) solely to show disk usage and perform cleanup you request, including:

• Paths under your home Library folder that you authorize (for example DerivedData, Archives, simulator data);
• Local system tool output needed for cleanup (for example simulator/runtime lists from simctl).

This information stays on your device (including preferences and security-scoped bookmarks inside the app sandbox). It is not uploaded to the cloud.

3. Offline / no network

• The app does not require network access for its features.
• Scanning, measuring, and cleaning run locally. We do not receive usage analytics, diagnostics, or file contents.
• There are no advertising, analytics, crash-reporting, or tracking SDKs.
• If you choose to open System Settings, Mail, or an external privacy page, that is initiated by you through the system; the app does not silently phone home.

4. Permissions

• User-selected folder access: On first use you may grant access to your home Library via the system open panel. Access can be remembered locally with a security-scoped bookmark.
• Full Disk Access (optional): Only suggested if some paths cannot be read due to system permissions. Enabling it is entirely your choice.
• You may decline authorization; without it, the app cannot scan or clean the corresponding caches.

5. What we do not do
