Privacy

Edna works on your Mac and nowhere else.

The app

  • Edna has no account, no analytics and no crash reporting.
  • Its only network request is a daily update check: it downloads the list of releases from this website, which sends your IP address and your Edna version. You can turn the check off in Edna’s settings. The Mac App Store version doesn’t check.
  • To match a rule on contents, Edna reads the text in your files. Text in scans and images is recognized on your Mac.
  • Your rules and the activity log are stored in ~/Library/Application Support/Edna. Delete that folder to remove them.
  • If you connect an AI client to Edna over MCP, that client can read your watched folders, rules and activity. What it does with them is up to that client and its own privacy policy.

This website

  • This site sets no cookies and runs no scripts or analytics.
  • The server that hosts it may keep standard access logs, such as IP address and time of request.

Email

  • If you email us for the beta price, we keep your address only to send you that price when Edna 1.0 ships.
  • Ask us to delete it at any time: contact@edna.tools.
