Photo Sandwich

Privacy Policy

Effective Date: July 9, 2026

The Short Version

Photo Sandwich collects nothing. Your photos, blends, and export settings stay on your Mac. The app is offline — we never see them.

Introduction

DigTek is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our macOS app Photo Sandwich.

Photo Sandwich is designed with privacy as a fundamental principle. The app runs entirely offline — it has no network access. We do not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal information or usage data.

What We Don't Collect

  • Personal information such as names, email addresses, or contact details
  • Usage analytics, telemetry, or tracking of any kind
  • Your photos, RAW files, or any image data
  • Your blends, blend recipes, starred variations, or export history
  • XMP sidecar file contents or metadata
  • Device information or technical specifications
  • File paths, folder structures, or filenames

How Your Data Stays Private

  • Everything is local: All blending, rendering, and export happens on your Mac
  • No internet required: Photo Sandwich has no network access and works completely offline
  • No third-party services: No analytics, advertising, or tracking services
  • No account creation: No sign-ups, logins, or user accounts
  • No data transmission: Nothing leaves your Mac unless you explicitly share it

What Stays on Your Mac

Photo Sandwich reads and writes the following, all stored locally on your disk:

  • Photos and image files you open as a base or overlay
  • The double-exposure results you export (JPEG, TIFF, or PNG), written next to your source images
  • XMP sidecar files recording the blend recipe under the sw: namespace, stored alongside your base image in open, industry-standard format. Sidecars are only ever updated, never created from scratch, and every other namespace is preserved untouched
  • App preferences, starred variations, and window state

This data never leaves your Mac. We have no access to it.

Apple and the App Store

Photo Sandwich is distributed through the Mac App Store. Apple may collect information related to your purchase and download according to Apple's Privacy Policy. We receive anonymized, aggregate sales data from Apple — we cannot identify individual purchasers.

Contact

If you contact us by email at developer@digtek.app, we will receive your email address and whatever information you choose to include. We use this only to respond to your inquiry and do not add it to any mailing list or share it with third parties.

Children's Privacy

Photo Sandwich is suitable for users of all ages. Since we don't collect any personal information, there are no special considerations for users under 13.

Terms of Service

Our Terms of Service govern your use of all DigTek applications. By downloading or using any DigTek app, you agree to these terms. For complete details, see our Terms of Service.

Changes to This Policy

If we ever change how we handle data (which is unlikely given our no-data approach), we will update this policy and notify users through the App Store.
