1. Introduction
TechCora ("we", "us", or "our") operates Dataweaver, a desktop application for spreadsheet data cleanup and transformation using AI. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use Dataweaver and its associated web services at dataweaver.techcora.in.
We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring that your personal data is handled responsibly. Dataweaver is designed with a local-first architecture, meaning your data files are processed entirely on your own device.
2. Data We Collect
Account Data
When you create an account, we collect your email address and name for the purpose of authentication and account management. This information is processed through our authentication provider, Keycloak.
Usage Analytics
Dataweaver does not collect usage analytics, telemetry, or behavioral data from the desktop application. We do not track which files you open, what transformations you perform, or how you use the application.
Your Data Files
Your spreadsheet files, CSV files, Excel files, and any other data you process with Dataweaver are never collected, uploaded, transmitted to, or stored on any server. All file processing happens entirely on your local device. Your data stays on your machine at all times.
3. How Your Data Is Processed
Dataweaver processes all spreadsheet and data file operations locally on your machine. When you perform data cleanup, transformations, or AI-assisted operations, these are executed by the application running on your device. Files are never uploaded to any external server for processing.
The AI processing engine operates within the desktop application. Your data remains under your control throughout the entire workflow, from import to export.
4. Authentication and Account Data
Authentication is handled by Keycloak, an open-source identity and access management solution. When you sign in or create an account, Keycloak processes your credentials securely. Your account data (email address and name) is stored within Keycloak.
TechCora does not store your passwords. Password management, including hashing and secure storage, is handled entirely by Keycloak using industry-standard encryption.
5. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Keycloak — For user authentication and account management. Keycloak processes your email address, name, and credentials.
We do not use any analytics services, advertising trackers, or third-party data processors that handle your files or usage data. There are no tracking pixels, no ad networks, and no data brokers involved in Dataweaver.
6. Data Retention
Your account data (email and name) is retained for as long as your account remains active. If you choose to delete your account, your account data will be removed from our authentication system.
Since your data files are never transmitted to our servers, there is no server-side retention of your files. Files processed by Dataweaver exist only on your local device.
