Privacy policy

Descon is a macOS app made by Toffee Design Studios. This page covers the Descon website, the waitlist, invite redemption, and the Mac app.

Questions: founder.descon@gmail.com

If you join the waitlist, we store your email address and the role or profession you choose. That information is kept in our database (Supabase) so we can send invites.

When you join for the first time, we send a short confirmation email to you and a one-off notice to us, both through Resend. We do not send marketing newsletters from the waitlist form.

If you use the contact form, we receive your name, email, and message by email through Resend (delivered to founder.descon@gmail.com). Contact messages are not stored in our waitlist database.

The site does not use advertising cookies or third-party analytics trackers today. Bot protection may load Cloudflare Turnstile on the waitlist and contact forms.

Descon runs on your Mac. Your projects, images, colours, and exports stay on your device. We do not upload your moodboards or design files to our servers.

If you redeem an invite, a signed licence is saved in your Mac Keychain so the app can stay unlocked offline. That licence is tied to your machine.

When invite codes go live, redeeming one may send a machine identifier to our invite service (Cloudflare) so the same code cannot unlock unlimited devices. We may also keep the email that received the invite so support can match a request to a code.

That email is not shown back to the app.

To run the waitlist and send invites.

To answer support messages you send us.

To keep invite codes fair (activation limits).

We do not sell your personal information.

Waitlist entries stay until you ask us to remove them, or until we no longer need them for invites and support.

Confirmation and contact emails may remain in Resend and our inbox until we purge them.

Invite records stay while the code is valid and for a reasonable period after, for support and abuse prevention.

Project files on your Mac stay until you delete them in the app or remove the app data.

Email founder.descon@gmail.com to ask what we hold about you, or to ask us to delete your waitlist entry. We will remove the Supabase row and, if you ask, purge related copies in Resend or Gmail where practical.

You can also remove Descon and its local data from your Mac at any time.

Descon is aimed at professional designers. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16.

If this policy changes in a meaningful way, we will update this page and the date below.
