Coden
Privacy Policy
Effective date: May 10, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how the Hotico application ("the App") handles user information.
What data we collect
None. Coden does not collect, store or transmit any personal data. The app runs completely offline and does not require registration, sign-in or an internet connection.
Generated passwords
Passwords generated by Coden:

– are created locally on your device using Apple's SecRandomCopyBytes cryptographic API
– are never transmitted over the network
– are never saved to disk by the app
– exist only in your device's memory and clipboard until you replace them
– are not visible to the developer or any third party

The developer has no access to any password you generate.
Local data storage
User settings (password length, character classes, saved presets, preferences) are stored locally on your device using the standard macOS storage (UserDefaults).

This data:

- is not transmitted to our servers
- is not shared with third parties
- is accessible only to you
- is removed when you uninstall the app
In-app purchases
Coden offers an optional one-time in-app purchase ("Coden Pro") processed entirely by Apple through the App Store. The developer does not receive your payment details, billing address, or Apple ID.

Apple may share with the developer:

– the fact that a purchase occurred (anonymized transaction record)
– aggregate sales statistics
– country of purchase

The developer never receives your name, email, payment method or any directly identifying information through the App Store.
For Apple's handling of your purchase data, see Apple's Privacy Policy at apple.com/privacy.
Analytics and tracking
Coden does not make any network requests. The app functions fully offline. You can verify this by running it with no internet connection — every feature continues to work normally.
Children
The app is not specifically designed for children under 13, but it is safe for users of any age, as it does not collect any data.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
If this Privacy Policy is updated, the new version will be published on this page with a new effective date.
