Your email archives stay on your Mac.

Archive processing
MboxDesk processes only the MBOX, MBX and EML files you choose. Import, parsing, search, thread grouping, attachment inventory, hashing and export run locally in the current Release build. The originals are opened read-only and exports are written separately.
Accounts, uploads and tracking
The current app does not require an account, connect to a mailbox, upload archive contents, include advertising trackers or enable an analytics or automatic crash-reporting service.
Website and checkout
This website may produce ordinary server access logs. Purchases are processed by Polar as merchant of record under its own privacy terms. Shipmac receives the purchase details needed to deliver and support the app; payment-card details are not handled by the app.
Support material
If you voluntarily send Shipmac an archive sample, failure report or other diagnostic material, it will be used only to investigate the issue you reported. Remove private correspondence before sharing whenever possible.
Changes
This page will be updated if MboxDesk adds any optional network feature or third-party service.
