Privacy Policy

Effective: April 11, 2026

Overview

Maho is built with privacy as a core principle. Our applications run locally on your device, keeping your data under your control. This policy covers both the maho.app website and Maho applications.

Information We Don't Collect

Maho Browser and Maho Mail do not collect browsing history, email content, contacts, search queries, or any personal data. Your data stays on your device and is never transmitted to our servers.

Website Analytics

The maho.app website may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand traffic patterns. No personal information is collected, and no data is shared with third parties for advertising or tracking purposes.

Cookies

The website uses only essential cookies necessary for functionality, such as theme preference storage. We do not use tracking cookies or third-party advertising cookies.

Third-Party Services

When you configure email accounts or AI providers in Maho Mail, your data flows directly between your device and those services. Maho does not intermediate, store, or have access to this data. Your use of third-party services is subject to their respective privacy policies.

Open Source Transparency

All Maho source code is publicly auditable at github.com/aspect-apps. You can verify our privacy claims by reviewing the code yourself.

Data Storage

All application data, including emails, settings, and browsing data, is stored locally on your device. Uninstalling the application removes this data from your device. We have no ability to access or delete your data remotely.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
