Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 19, 2026

The short version

Remark is a native macOS app. Your files stay on your machine. We don't collect, store, or transmit your documents, comments, or any file content.

What we collect

We use PostHog for analytics on this website, hosted in the EU and running in cookieless mode. Nothing is stored on your device — no cookies, no local storage. Visitors are counted using a privacy-preserving hash computed on PostHog's servers, which is why this site shows no cookie banner.

The Remark app itself sends anonymous usage analytics via PostHog to help us understand which features are used. No personal data, file content, or comment text is ever transmitted. You can opt out in the app settings.

Update checks

Remark periodically checks updates.getremark.app to see if a new version is available. This request contains your app version and platform. No other data is sent.

License validation

Remark validates your license key via Polar.sh. This transmits only your license key. No file content or usage data is shared with Polar.

Data storage

All your comments, documents, and review data are stored locally on your Mac. Nothing is uploaded to any server. We have zero access to your files.

Third-party services

• PostHog — anonymous analytics, EU-hosted (their privacy policy)
• Polar.sh — license key validation (their privacy policy)
• Cloudflare — website and update hosting
• GitHub — source code and releases
