Privacy Policy

Last updated: 11 May 2026

QuickMark is a Markdown editor and previewer for macOS. It reads and writes Markdown files on your local machine and displays them in a window or Quick Look panel.

What QuickMark does NOT do

• No data collection. QuickMark does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information.
• No analytics or tracking. There are no third-party SDKs, no telemetry, no crash reporting that leaves your device.
• No network requests. QuickMark does not contact any server. The macOS network entitlement is required only because WebKit (the rendering engine) declares it internally.
• No advertising.

What QuickMark does

• Reads and writes Markdown (.md, .markdown, .mdown, .mkd, .mkdn) files you explicitly open from Finder, drag to the app, or preview via Quick Look. Files are accessed locally only.
• Watches an open file for changes via macOS NSFilePresenter so the preview updates when you save in another editor.
• Stores window position and size per-document via macOS standard document state restoration (handled by the system).

Permissions

QuickMark runs in the App Sandbox and has only the entitlements required to function:

• com.apple.security.app-sandbox — required.
• com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write — read and write access to files you explicitly open.
• com.apple.security.files.bookmarks.app-scope — remember which file each window is showing across launches.
• com.apple.security.network.client — required by WebKit for the local rendering process; never used to make requests off-device.

Children

QuickMark is appropriate for all ages and does not knowingly target or collect data from children.
