Your work stays yours.
Information stored by the app
SideAce can store business profile details, client and project records, contact notes, proposals, time entries, invoices and payments, expenses, receipt images, mileage, tax settings and estimates, business goals, calendar notes, and a custom logo. This information may be commercially sensitive or contain personal information entered by you.
What the app does not send us
The current app does not transmit its local business database to the publisher. It has no SideAce cloud account, publisher-operated backend, bank feed, payment processor, advertising SDK, analytics SDK, or cloud-sync service. Local processing and exports you initiate are not publisher collection.
Device capabilities
- Camera or photo-library access is used only when you choose a receipt image or custom logo.
- App Lock invokes the operating system’s authentication interface; SideAce does not receive biometric templates.
- File dialogs are used when you import or export files.
Exports and backups
You can create PDFs, CSV exports, and password-protected authenticated encrypted backups. Exported files are stored where you or the operating system selects and are no longer protected by SideAce’s app-level controls. You control how those files are stored, transmitted, and deleted. The publisher cannot recover a forgotten backup password.
Website delivery and tracking
The SideAce website code does not use advertising, audience analytics, tracking pixels, fingerprinting, or browser storage for audience measurement. Cloudflare delivers and protects the website and may process IP addresses, request headers, device and network information, security events, and strictly necessary security cookies under its own terms. The website uses a same-origin referrer policy for internal navigation and suppresses referrers on external store and support links.
Retired website checkout
This website no longer creates checkout sessions, takes payment, selects prices from your location, or delivers installers. Old direct-download routes clear the previous HTTP-only checkout cookie. Old return URLs redirect to a clean same-origin support page without forwarding session identifiers to an external store. These retirement responses are private and non-cacheable.
External stores
Microsoft processes Windows purchases made through Microsoft Store. Apple processes Mac, iPhone and iPad purchases made through the App Store. Google will process Android purchases when that channel becomes available. These providers control store accounts, payments, tax, fraud, receipts, and retention. Their privacy terms apply after you leave this website. SideAce does not receive or store full payment-card details.
Retention and deletion
App records remain on your device until you edit or delete them, clear application data, or uninstall the app, subject to operating-system backup and retention behaviour. Exports and backups must be deleted separately. Support and security correspondence, and any historical transaction or test records from the retired Stripe integration, are retained only as needed for support, abuse prevention, appropriate business records, and legal obligations. Cloudflare, Stripe, Microsoft, Apple, Google, and email providers apply their own retention schedules. Stripe is not used for new SideAce website purchases.
Rights and contact
To ask about information held by the publisher or exercise an applicable privacy right, email support@adeptuslabs.xyz with “SideAce privacy request” in the subject. Do not include backup passwords, full backups, payment-card details, or customer records. We may need to verify a request before acting on it. You may also have the right to contact your local privacy regulator.
Children
SideAce is a business tool for independent professionals and is not directed to children. The app does not transmit an app database to a publisher-operated service.
Changes
Material changes will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. This notice will be reviewed if telemetry, licensing, support uploads, payments, sync, or another network service is added.
