Privacy & data

Private by design, not by policy

Apex is a local desktop app. It does not have a server, an account system, or a network connection of any kind.

Where your data lives

All application data is stored in a SQLite database on your own machine:

%APPDATA%\apex\apex.db

Attached files (resumes, cover letters) are stored next to the database in %APPDATA%\apex\attachments\. You can open this folder in Explorer at any time.

No telemetry, no analytics

Apex does not collect usage data, crash reports, or any other telemetry. There is no tracking code in the app. Your job search is your business.

What happens when you uninstall

Uninstalling Apex removes the app binaries but does not delete your database or attachments. Your data in %APPDATA%\apex\ remains intact. To fully remove all data, delete that folder manually after uninstalling.
