The mobile apps are free. How does that work? Developing an app takes time (especially one that looks this polished), and running servers costs money. I don't see any ads in the client, so you must be making money some other way.

Combined with the fact that my emails would have to pass through your server, that makes me uncomfortable.

Yes, mobile apps would be free, serving as 'trials' for the desktop app, which is paid.

CloudMagic Mac app has already reached #2 in Top Paid App on Mac App Store within hours of launch.

Over a period of time, we'll introduce more power features like email tracking, CRM integrations, etc.

I think we are building a ethical independent business here.

Your privacy policy makes some of that apparent, and it's clearly worded. I appreciate that.

I didn't initially notice your privacy policy because there doesn't seem to be a link from the Mac app page. I had to go to the homepage by deleting the path from the URL in my browser, since I couldn't find a link to the main page on the Mac app page. I scrolled to the bottom of the page, as that's where these things usually are, but all I found was a trio of social media buttons. I scrolled back up and noticed the three-horizontal-lines symbol, which I correctly assumed would bring up a menu. I found the privacy policy under that.

I can only speak for myself, but I would have found it valuable to have an obvious link to the privacy policy on every page. I really wanted to find the privacy policy, because I felt a bit guilty about how tersely worded my previous comment to you was. Had I not been so motivated, I might have just looked at the page, thought it looked nice, then closed it when I couldn't find an obvious link to a privacy policy.

Anyway, thanks for answering my question. I hope I didn't come across as rude. I feel like a parent sending my kid to a sleep-over. I just want to make sure my data will be safe while it stays with people I don't know.

I will forward your comment to by website team. This is definitely something we can improve. Thanks and have a great day.
