Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2025

CadNic Desktop Application

CadNic collects zero data. The desktop application operates 100% offline. No telemetry. No analytics. No cloud connections. Your data never leaves your machine — period.

All recognition is performed locally using models bundled with the application. No API calls are made during recognition. Your screenshots, equations, and the resulting LaTeX stay entirely on your computer.

CadNic Website (cadnic.com)

This website uses Plausible Analytics, a privacy-friendly analytics service that does not use cookies, does not track users across sites, and is fully compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and PECR. No personal data is collected.

We do not use any tracking pixels. We do not fingerprint your browser.

Cookies

We use some essential cookies to make this site work. Subject to your choices, we and/or our partners may also use cookies and similar technologies for:

  • Measuring and improving site performance and providing enhanced functionality
  • Providing personalized product recommendations and tailoring content based on your preferences
  • Showing you relevant ads on other sites

Essential cookies cannot be disabled — they are required for basic site functionality (session management, security, payment processing).

Non-essential cookies (analytics, preferences, advertising) are only set if you explicitly accept them via the cookie banner shown on your first visit. You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clearing your browser's local storage for this site, which will cause the consent banner to reappear.

Payment Processing

Payments are processed by Stripe (for USD payments) and Razorpay (for INR payments in India). We do not store your credit card number, CVV, or full payment details on our servers.

When you make a purchase, we store your email address and order details (amount, currency, tier purchased) solely for license delivery and customer support. Payment processor privacy policies apply to the payment transaction itself:

Email Collection

We collect your email address only in these scenarios:

  • Purchase: To deliver your license key and provide customer support.
  • Waitlist: Only if you voluntarily sign up. You can request removal at any time by emailing [email protected].

We never sell, share, or rent your email address to third parties. Emails are sent via Resend, our transactional email provider.

License Activation Data

When you activate a license, the desktop app sends a machine fingerprint (a one-way hash) and machine name to verify your license. This data is used solely to enforce the per-user device limit and is not shared with anyone.

Your Rights

You can request to:

  • View all data we hold about you
  • Delete your data (waitlist, order records)
  • Deactivate your license on all machines

Contact [email protected] for any privacy requests.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the website or software constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
