Privacy Policy

This policy explains what happens to your data when you visit this website, buy Døgn, and use the app. The short version: this website sets no cookies and uses only privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics, and the Døgn app keeps your data on your own Mac.

1. Who is responsible

The controller is Nico Hülscher, Boverstraße 19C, 45473 Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany — nico@dogn.app (see also the Impressum).

2. This website

The site is a static website and sets no cookies. It does not track you across sites or build any profile of you, and the brand fonts are self-hosted, so your browser makes no request to Google Fonts or any external font service.

For aggregate, privacy-friendly usage statistics we use Cloudflare Web Analytics, configured to exclude visitors from the EU — if you visit from the EU, you are not measured at all. It is cookieless and stores nothing on your device; for non-EU visitors it records only anonymous, aggregate metrics (such as page views, referrer, country and device type) without cross-site tracking or advertising identifiers. Where it applies, the legal basis is our legitimate interest in understanding and improving the site (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

The site is hosted by Cloudflare Pages. When you load a page, the host automatically processes technical connection data (your IP address, browser/user-agent, requested URL, timestamp) in server logs, which is necessary to deliver the site securely (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Cloudflare, Inc. is based in the USA, so hosting (and, for non-EU visitors, analytics) may involve a transfer of personal data to the United States, safeguarded by the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework (to which Cloudflare is certified) and/or the EU Standard Contractual Clauses; you can request a copy of these safeguards from us. See cloudflare.com/privacypolicy.

3. Buying Døgn

Checkout is handled by Lemon Squeezy (Lemon Squeezy, LLC), which acts as our Merchant of Record and reseller. When you buy, the data you enter (name, email, billing/country and payment details) is processed by Lemon Squeezy to take payment, handle EU VAT, send your invoice and deliver your license. Lemon Squeezy is an independent controller for that data; see its privacy policy at lemonsqueezy.com/privacy. Lemon Squeezy is based in the USA, so checkout involves a transfer of your data to the United States, safeguarded by the EU Standard Contractual Clauses as set out in its privacy policy and data processing addendum. We receive only the order and license information needed to fulfil and support your purchase.

4. The Døgn app

Døgn is a local-first macOS app. All of your tracking data — clients, projects, time entries and earnings — is stored only on your Mac (in a local Core Data store). There is no cloud sync, no account and no telemetry; the app does not send your tracking data to us or anyone else.

The one exception is fully under your control: if you configure webhooks (for example to turn finished work into draft invoices), the app sends the data you choose to the endpoint you specify, signed with HMAC. That endpoint is operated by you or a provider you pick (e.g. your own n8n instance), and its data handling is your responsibility.

5. Software updates

The app checks for updates so it can keep itself signed, notarized and current. When it checks, it contacts the update feed (hosted on Cloudflare) via the Sparkle update framework, which necessarily sees your IP address and app/OS version. This is used only to serve the correct update and is based on our legitimate interest in shipping secure software (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). You can disable automatic update checks in the app.

6. Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict and port your personal data, and to object to processing based on legitimate interests. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise any of these, contact nico@dogn.app. Note that data held only inside the app on your Mac is under your direct control — we have no copy of it.

7. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the product or our providers change. The current version always lives at this URL, with the “last updated” date above.
