The app and your documents

The LatexDo app needs no account. It does not track your documents or upload your LaTeX source, PDFs, project files, editor content, or change history by default. LatexDo does not sell personal data.

Your files stay on your device unless you choose a feature, external link, download, update, or provider-backed service that sends a request.

Website analytics and cookies

This website asks before measuring its audience. Nothing is loaded from Google and no analytics cookie is set until you choose Accept. If you choose Refuse, or your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, no analytics runs and the website works exactly the same.

If you accept, we use Google Analytics 4, provided by Google Ireland Limited, to count visits and see which pages are useful. It sets the cookies _ga and _ga_VZK1FHVL4C, which last at most 13 months, and it processes pages viewed, approximate location derived from your IP address, device and browser type, and the referring site. Google signals and advertising personalization are turned off. Analytics data is kept for at most 14 months. Google may process it in the United States under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. The legal basis is your consent.

Your answer is remembered in your browser for six months, then asked again. You can change or withdraw it at any time with Cookie settings, also linked in the footer of every page. Withdrawing deletes the analytics cookies.

The website also stores two items in your browser that need no consent because they only remember your own settings: your analytics answer and your display theme.

Data stored on your device

The LatexDo desktop app can store app settings, trusted folder choices, editor preferences, spell checker settings, proofreading settings, extension choices, install state, and local history snapshots on your device so the workspace works between sessions.

Website, downloads, and updates

The website and update checks are served by Cloudflare, and installers are downloaded from GitHub. These providers process standard technical request data such as IP address, user agent, requested URL, timestamps, and error logs, to deliver the service and keep it secure. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in running the website.

Donations and email

Donations are handled by HelloAsso, which collects your payment and contact details under its own privacy policy. The donation form is loaded only when you open it. When you email us, we use what you send only to answer your request. Our email addresses are shown only after a Cloudflare Turnstile check, which protects them from spam bots. Turnstile loads only when you click to show an address and is covered by Cloudflare's privacy policy.

Optional external services

External links, the extension catalog, update checks, downloads, and optional proofreading can contact LatexDo services or a provider you configure. Those requests are only made when you use the related feature or open the related link.

Project files

LatexDo reads and writes project files only in folders you create, open, or trust. Documents, source files, PDFs, and auxiliary files are used to provide editing, preview, compilation, diagnostics, SyncTeX navigation, and related local product features.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you can ask to access, correct, or delete your personal data, to restrict or object to its use, and to withdraw consent at any time. Write to security@… (click to show). You can also lodge a complaint with the French data protection authority, the CNIL.
