Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 7, 2026

Overview

Fude is a desktop-first Markdown reader. This page explains how we handle personal data for the marketing website and related product communications.

Information we collect

We may collect the following categories of information:

• contact details you provide voluntarily, such as your email address
• basic analytics and technical information, such as browser, device, and referrer data
• messages you send through email or other support channels

How we use information

We use collected information to:

• operate and improve the website
• respond to questions and support requests
• send product updates when you asked to receive them
• understand traffic and product interest at a high level

Local-first product note

Fude is designed around local files and a desktop-first reading experience. The marketing website is separate from the desktop runtime. Website analytics or email collection do not grant access to your local documents.

Data sharing

We do not sell personal information. We may rely on infrastructure providers, analytics providers, or email tools that process limited data on our behalf.

Analytics provider

We use PostHog to understand website traffic and navigation patterns on the marketing website. You can disable analytics for this browser using the controls available on this page.

Retention

We keep personal data only for as long as needed to provide the service, answer requests, or comply with legal obligations.

Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or object to certain processing of your personal data.
