Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 5, 2026
Keep or Toss (“the App”) is provided by API Espresso (“we,” “us,” “our”). This Privacy Policy explains what information the App collects, why, and how it’s handled.
The short version
Keep or Toss processes your files entirely on your own computer. We never see, receive, or store the content, names, or metadata of any file you triage. The App makes a small number of network connections for the purposes described below — nothing else.
What we don’t collect
- We do not access, upload, or transmit the content, filenames, or metadata of any file you process in the App.
- We do not require an account to use the App.
- We do not use analytics, tracking, or advertising services of any kind.
- We do not collect usage statistics or telemetry.
What we do collect, and why
License and purchase information. When you purchase a license, our payment provider collects your email address and payment details to process the transaction and issue your license. We receive your email address and license details from our payment provider in order to deliver your license key and provide support if you contact us.
License activation. When you activate your license in the App, we receive your license key and a non-identifying device identifier, so we can confirm the license is valid and track how many devices it’s activated on (per the device limit described in your license terms). This identifier does not contain any personal or file-related information.
Update checks. On launch, the App checks for available updates by contacting our software distribution service. This request is a standard network request and may expose your IP address to that service, the same way any website visit would.
Support communications. If you contact us for support, we retain that correspondence (e.g., your email address and the content of your message) for as long as reasonably necessary to resolve your request and maintain basic support records.
Third-party services
We rely on third-party infrastructure to handle payment processing, license validation, and update delivery. These providers only receive the minimum information necessary to perform those specific functions (e.g., your email for a receipt, your license key for validation) and are contractually or operationally limited to using that information for those purposes.
Data retention
We retain license and purchase records for as long as necessary to provide support, honor the license terms, and comply with applicable tax and accounting obligations. Support correspondence is retained only as long as reasonably necessary to resolve your inquiry.
Your choices
Since the App requires no account, there is no online profile to manage. If you’d like your purchase or support records removed, contact us at the address below and we’ll address your request.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the “Last updated” date above.
