Privacy
TickThock privacy policy
In short
- TickThock never records, stores, logs or sends what you type.
- It has no account, no analytics and no tracking, and collects no data about you.
- Your settings, profiles and any sounds you import stay on your Mac.
- The app makes no network requests of its own. The only network traffic is Apple’s, for the purchase.
Your keys and clicks
To play a sound when you press a key or click, TickThock needs the macOS Accessibility permission, which you grant in System Settings. It uses it only to notice that a key or button went down: it watches copies of those events, so it never types, clicks or blocks any input, and it never reads or controls other apps.
It notes which key went down only for the moment it takes to pick a sound, such as a different one for the space bar, or placing the sound left or right. Then it is forgotten. Keystrokes are never recorded, stored, logged or sent anywhere.
Password fields make no sound because macOS Secure Input hides them from every app, TickThock included.
What stays on your Mac
TickThock keeps its settings and your profiles on your Mac only, in the app’s own sandbox container:
~/Library/Containers/com.zewify.tickthock/
Sounds you import are copied into that container and never leave your Mac. Nothing TickThock keeps is synced or uploaded anywhere.
The network and your purchase
TickThock makes no network requests of its own. The only network traffic is Apple’s StoreKit, which handles buying and restoring TickThock Pro.
Apple processes the payment under its own privacy policy. Zewify never sees your payment details.
There is no account to create, and no analytics, advertising or tracking of any kind in the app.
Deleting everything
Deleting TickThock and its container, ~/Library/Containers/com.zewify.tickthock/, removes everything it kept: settings, profiles and imported sounds. There is nothing held anywhere else to ask us to delete.
Changes
If TickThock ever starts keeping or sending something new, this page changes first, and the date at the top changes with it.
