Your documents never leave your Mac

Elisio exists to help you share documents without oversharing. It would make no sense for the tool itself to collect what you're trying to protect, so it doesn't. Here is exactly what that means.

The app has no network access

Mac apps from the App Store run in a sandbox, and each app must ask macOS for permission to use the internet. Elisio doesn't ask. It has no network permission at all, so it can't upload, sync, back up, check for updates or "phone home", even by accident. Updates come only through the Mac App Store.

No account, no tracking

• No sign-up, sign-in or email address needed.
• No analytics, crash reporters, advertising or third-party code that sends data anywhere.
• Elisio never writes the personal details it finds into its logs. Its logs hold only counts, categories and timings.

Your files stay as they were

• Originals are never changed. Elisio saves a new, redacted copy and leaves your source file alone.
• Temporary files are deleted when you save or cancel, and again each time the app starts.
• The Dictionary stays on your Mac. The words Elisio learns to always redact or always ignore are stored encrypted, inside the app's private storage.

Checked before you share

Before saving, Elisio searches the new file again for every value you chose to redact. If any of them can still be found, the save is blocked and Elisio shows you where. This check is part of every edition and is never a paid feature.

This website doesn't track you either

elisio.app sets no cookies, has no forms, and loads no analytics, advertising or third-party scripts. Fonts and images are served from this site. For the formal details, read the privacy policy.
