Privacy is structural.

The app lives where you do.

What you downloaded is the entire app. The HTML file is roughly 170 kilobytes, and once it loads, your browser does the rest. Your invoices, expenses, clients, and tax data are saved in your browser's localStorage on your computer, tied to the file path you use to open TaliiVue and not accessible to any other website or app. You can also export a plain JSON backup at any time and keep it wherever you keep important files. That JSON file is yours. It's readable in any text editor. There's no copy of it on a TaliiVue server, because there is no TaliiVue server.

The browser also keeps three rotating snapshots of your data (taliivue_snap_0, _1, _2) in case a tab crashes or you close one without exporting. Those snapshots live alongside your main data in the same browser storage on the same machine, accessible only to you. When you first open the app, it calls navigator.storage.persist(), a standard browser API that asks the browser to mark its storage as persistent so it doesn't quietly evict it the way it sometimes does with temporary storage. That request goes from the app to your browser. It doesn't go anywhere else.

It doesn't reach out.

After the file loads, the app doesn't send anything anywhere. No requests to a TaliiVue server, no third-party analytics, no error reports, no telemetry, no A/B testing, no feature flags fetched at runtime. There's no signup, no login, no password, no email captured. There's no "forgot your password" flow because there is no password to forget.

A pulsing green dot sits next to the "locally saved" label in the app's header. It's a visual reminder that the app runs locally on your machine, kept in front of you while you work.

Cloud sync is your call.

You can optionally keep your TaliiVue folder inside iCloud Drive, Dropbox, Google Drive, or any other cloud-synced folder if you want your backups mirrored across devices. If you do, the app itself still makes no network requests; the cloud provider is syncing the folder contents the same way it syncs any other file on disk.

Salty Pixel has no involvement in or visibility into that arrangement. Whatever your cloud provider does with the synced files is governed by their privacy policy, not ours.

This is your choice and is fully optional. The default workflow (keeping TaliiVue in a plain folder on your drive and saving JSON backups wherever you want) is fully supported and equally private.

The site is different from the app.

The site you're reading right now, taliivue.com in full, loads Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics 4. That's how page views, click-through rates, and bounce rates get measured on the marketing pages.

GA4 sets first-party cookies (_ga and related) to track visitor sessions across page views. The app, by contrast, does not use cookies at all; it stores everything in your browser's localStorage, which is a different storage mechanism that does not travel with network requests.

The downloaded app is different. The app's HTML file does not load Google Tag Manager. It does not load Google Analytics. It does not load any third-party tracking. Once the file is on your machine, the marketing site has no further view into your activity. The asymmetry is deliberate: a marketing site benefits from knowing what's working; a working tool you keep on your computer doesn't need to know anything about you.

If you want to opt out of website analytics, the standard browser tools work. Privacy-focused browsers, ad blockers, Global Privacy Control (GPC), and most VPN-with-blocking services will prevent the analytics from firing. We don't have a separate opt-out mechanism beyond those.

Open the inspector.

You don't have to take any of this on faith. Open your browser's developer tools (Cmd+Option+I on Mac, Ctrl+Shift+I on Windows and Linux) and click the Network tab. Open the TaliiVue HTML file. After the initial page load, click around. Add an invoice. Edit a client. Save a backup. Watch the Network tab. It stays empty.

You can also open the file itself in any text editor. The whole app is one HTML file with the JavaScript and CSS embedded. You can read exactly what the file does, and exactly what it doesn't.

When you buy TaliiVue.

Purchases are processed by Gumroad. They collect your name, email, and payment information for the transaction, governed by Gumroad's own privacy policy.

Salty Pixel receives an order confirmation from Gumroad with your name and email so we can deliver the file. We don't add this information to any mailing list, share it with anyone else, or use it for marketing. If you want your purchase record deleted from Gumroad, we can request that on your behalf. Email us using the address at the bottom of this page.

If you email us.

If you email us with a question or support request, we keep your message and our reply for the duration of the conversation. We don't have an automatic deletion schedule, so afterward the records sit in our inbox until you ask us to clean them out. We don't add you to a mailing list, don't share your email with third parties, and don't use it for marketing.

If you'd like us to delete the email exchange at any point, ask in the email itself or write back later. We'll do it.

You decide when to update.

There is no auto-update. The version of TaliiVue on your machine is the version you downloaded. If a new version ships, you'll see it on this site and decide whether to migrate. There is no remote kill switch, no forced upgrade, no path by which the file on your computer changes without you.

Your data, your control.

Because the app's data lives on your machine, you already have full control of it. You can read your data (it's plain JSON), export it, modify it, delete it, copy it to another machine, or do anything else you want with it, without asking anyone, including us.

There is no Salty Pixel-side dataset to access, modify, or delete because we don't have one. The only data we hold related to you is the Gumroad-forwarded order confirmation and any email exchange you've sent us. If you want either deleted, email us.

Updates and contact.

If this policy changes, we'll update the effective date below and note any material changes. The README PDF that ships with TaliiVue includes a short privacy summary current at the release; the canonical version is this page.

Privacy rights vary by jurisdiction. If you're a resident of California, the EU, or another region with specific privacy rights, email the address below and we'll handle your request.
