Introduction
Seçkin Sefa Durası ("we," "our," or "us") operates the MasterDock application (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data when you use our Service and the choices you have associated with that data.
🔒 Our Privacy Commitment
MasterDock is designed with privacy in mind. We collect minimal data necessary to provide our services and never sell your personal information to third parties.
Information We Collect
1. Information You Provide
We may collect the following information that you voluntarily provide:
- Account Information: If you create an account or purchase a subscription, we collect your Apple ID information for purchase validation.
- Location Data: Only if you enable the weather widget and choose to share your location for weather updates. This data is used solely for displaying weather information.
- City Name: If you manually enter a city name for the weather widget instead of using automatic location.
- App Preferences: Your dock customization settings, which are stored locally on your device.
- Purchase Information: Transaction records for subscriptions and in-app purchases processed through Apple's payment system.
2. Automatically Collected Information
MasterDock collects minimal automatic information:
- Crash Reports: Anonymous crash data to help us improve app stability (if you opt-in through macOS settings)
- Basic Usage Analytics: Anonymous usage patterns to understand which features are most popular (no personal data included)
- Subscription Status: We verify your subscription status with Apple's servers to provide access to premium features

You can manage your subscriptions through your Apple ID account settings. Subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for the following purposes:
- To provide and maintain the Service
- To verify and manage your subscriptions and purchases
- To display weather information in the weather widget (if enabled)
- To save your preferences and settings locally
- To improve app performance and fix bugs
- To provide customer support when you contact us
- To send important updates about your subscription (through App Store notifications)
Data Storage and Security
Local Storage
Most of your data is stored locally on your Mac using Apple's secure UserDefaults system. This includes all your dock configurations, app preferences, and customization settings. This data never leaves your device unless you explicitly back it up using iCloud or other services.
Weather Data
If you use the weather widget, location or city name data is sent to weather service providers to fetch current weather information. We use industry-standard weather APIs that have their own privacy policies. We do not store this information on our servers.
Security Measures
We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data. However, no method of electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Third-Party Services
Apple App Store
MasterDock is distributed through the Apple App Store. Apple processes all payments and subscriptions. Apple may collect information about app downloads, purchases, and subscriptions according to their privacy policy. For more information, please review Apple's Privacy Policy.
Weather Services
The weather widget uses third-party weather APIs. These services may collect anonymous location data to provide weather information. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies if you use this feature.
Your Data Rights
You have the following rights regarding your data:
- Access: You can access all your settings directly within the app
- Modification: You can modify or delete any settings at any time
- Deletion: Uninstalling MasterDock removes all locally stored data
- Opt-out: You can disable location services for the weather widget in System Settings
- Data Portability: Your settings are stored in standard macOS formats and can be backed up
- Subscription Cancellation: You can cancel your subscription anytime through your Apple ID settings
Children's Privacy
MasterDock is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.
International Data Transfers
MasterDock primarily operates locally on your device. Weather data requests may be processed by international weather service providers. Subscription verification occurs through Apple's international servers. By using these features, you consent to these transfers.
Data Retention
We retain your data only as long as necessary to provide our services:
- Local app settings are retained until you uninstall the app
- Subscription records are retained as required by Apple and tax laws
- Support correspondence is retained for up to 2 years
- Analytics data is anonymized and aggregated
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date. For significant changes, we may also notify you through the app.
California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, you have specific rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). These include the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to delete your information, and the right to opt-out of the sale of your information (note: we do not sell personal information).
European Privacy Rights (GDPR)
If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have additional rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the right to data portability, the right to restriction of processing, and the right to object to processing.
