ChipLoad is a machinist calculator app. It was built to work at the machine, and it works fully offline. This policy is short because there is very little to describe:
Nothing. ChipLoad has no accounts, no sign-in, no ads, and no analytics or tracking of any kind. The app does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal information.
Your machine profiles, saved setups, favorites, and tool settings are stored only on your device, so the app works the same with no connection at all. Deleting the app deletes that data.
Material Weight has an optional "Live going rates" setting, off by default. If you turn it on, the app downloads a small price file (hosted at chip-load.web.app) about once a day so material prices stay current. That request sends no personal information — it is a plain file download, like loading a web page — and nothing about you or your usage is sent back or logged by us.
The optional ChipLoad Pro unlock is sold through Apple's App Store. Apple handles the payment; we never see your payment details. Apple's handling of purchase data is covered by Apple's own privacy policy.
